A blog post can only introduce a topic but not cover it in depth. For more study on various topics, click here for links to various Christian ministries.
Depending on the ministry, there may be online church services, YouTube videos, podcasts, radio programs, books, teaching, or more. You have to seek out what they have.
Christmas Gifts – Tip
Here are some thoughts about gifts.
- Get a book or video that will help someone learn about Jesus or grow in his/her Christian faith.
- If you have the opportunity to buy the same item from two different vendors, support the Christian or conservative business rather that the global oligarchical system. Use your purchasing power in line with your values.
Some ideas for either those who have everything or ideas that will benefit whole families year round, are subscriptions, or individual shows. You can contact the companies themselves with any questions on that.
These are extremely high quality Biblical or Christian-themed productions. You can get a year-long virtual subscription to view them.
Currently, at the time of this writing, The Chosen is showing on PureFlix. It took me over a year to follow someone’s suggestion to watch the series, but I have to agree with the person who recommended it, it is very good. It would be a good show to have playing in the background during the Christmas season, when maybe you have some visitors who don’t know the Lord.
On Pureflix, there are videos and resources for all ages, including some documentaries that are good for homeschoolers. It definitely would be worth the money to give a subscription as a gift. The bonus is, you would cover all age groups in a family at the same time.
These are high quality Christian-themed, Biblically-themed cartoons created by CBN. Many are in foreign languages as well. Again, this is a good thing to play when neighborhood children are over who may not know Jesus. These short 1/2 hour shows draw the relationship between a past Biblical historical event and a modern challenge a child might face. There are some available on YouTube that you can watch. I believe there is a membership where you get the newest creations by subscription.
VeggieTales and Yippee
These are available through TBN. I believe there are some videos for purchase, at least for VeggieTales. TBN has a traditional children’s cartoon/children’s showtime on Saturday mornings. You can learn more at the TBN site. TBN is a worldwide Christian television station that has programming for all ages, as well as TBN related television stations in other parts of the world and in other languages.

Creation versus Evolution
There has been an ongoing secular debate as to whether mankind evolved from an ape or was created by God.
There is a Christian scientific ministry that focuses on various scientific topics with expert scientists in various fields. Recently, the topic of evolution versus creation was covered on one of their weekly broadcasts.
Basically, it comes down to this. If there was no Adam who sinned, then there was no need for the Saviour, Jesus.
The Catholic Church understands this very well. They discuss the first Adam who fell, and the Last Adam, who is Jesus, the Redeemer, the Saviour of the world.
Not every denomination explains this as well. Some have not thought this through as well. Some denominations seem to feel that evolution and creation can co-exist. But they cannot.
Athiests have thought this through. They recognize that if there is an evolutionary model then there is no need of a Saviour.
The bottom line is this. You have to have a Second Adam if you have a first Adam. If there is no first Adam, but only an ape, then you don’t need a Second Adam.
The Lord God immediately prophesied a Last Adam after the Fall.
Genesis 3:15 will put hostility between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and her offspring.
He will bruise your head,
and you will bruise his heel.”
If you try to bring in an evolutionary model, that model has no indication of temptation of the serpent to Eve and Adam, the fall of mankind, and the necessity for Jesus to redeem mankind from the Fall.
Here is a short video on creation vs evolution.
If you are interested in learning more about science in relation to the Bible, consider watching Creation in the 21st Century on TBN every Saturday. It is a 1/2 hour show. You can find the current schedule by going to https://tbn.org and looking up their schedule. It currently is on at 12:30 pm Central time.
