Spiritual Resources

The following resources are offered for serious consideration of the origin and destiny of man. In fact, many of these links will take you to Bible study materials that are definitely not for beginners.

Several of the following links are to free e-Books. They are complete, full-length, unedited books (in Adobe .pdf files), ready to study or print.
Please let us know if there is anything we can do for you as you search for the real meaning of life...and death.

More titles will be added as they become available, but you are encouraged to go to the following sites for much more material than can be included in this list.

New Testament Greek Study with Jeff Smelser
Note from RB: I know Jeff Smelser, personally.  I have found him to be a careful student and teacher of Greek, both from his reputation among Greek students and from personal experience in hearing him teach. 

While I disagree with Jeff on some matters of interpretation or exegesis, I have confidence that your Greek studies with Jeff will make you a better Bible student. Resources for Kids

The Unique Church

There are LOTS of churches in the world, right?  But, what if ALL of them were less than what God would have them to be? What if it could be seen that they are less than--yet far more--than what Christ established and called, "...My church" (Bible/New Testament in Matthew 16:18)?  What if there is a truly undenominational alternative to the religious division in the world?

Women Female Leadership in the Church

Many people are troubled at the position that female leadership is not authorized in scripture.  This study is a carefully researched and well-written reply to those who attempt to place women in roles of leadership that God has not defined for them. 

However, in one respect, Dave Miller has entirely missed the mark, denying to qualified and spiritual woman one of the specific areas of service God has authorized. 

Here is my respectful reply to Dave's error on Deaconesses.

This need not be a matter of question, dispute or division among people who are committed to the New Testament pattern.
