Creation; God Made It (1 of 4)
Series: The BIG Picture
Jordan Easley
2 Timothy 3:16-17
We love to overcomplicate things, don't we? We tend to get lost in the minutia... and the details... and the questions... when really, sometimes the best thing we can do... is back up... and look at the big picture.
Today we're beginning a brand-new sermon series that I'm calling ''The BIG Picture,'' and that's exactly what we're going to do. Over the next several weeks, we're going to look at the major pillars of the gospel story from a birds-eye-view...

The Scientist grabbed the third parachute and said, ''I'm the smartest man in the world, and the world needs the smartest man in the world... so I too must live!'' ...and then he jumped out of the plane.
At this point, the President looked at the Boy Scout and said, ''Son, I've ...
