Lord, Open Their Eyes

Posted on January 11, 2018 by ehurst

One of the primary consequences of the American Christian obsession with “going to Heaven” is the obvious estrangement from Biblical Law and the riches of living in shalom in the fallen world. It’s more than mere disconnected doctrine, though; it’s … Continue reading →

Abraham’s Footprints

Posted on January 9, 2018 by ehurst

I’m not fit to tie Abraham’s shoes, but I do know something about how he got them dirty. He left behind everything he knew, a world where he was important and comfortable, and changed to a wholly different lifestyle. Eventually … Continue reading →

Exodus of the Soul

Posted on December 31, 2017 by ehurst

The Vast Reaches of Eden

Posted on December 4, 2017 by ehurst

Sin Is a Tragedy

Posted on December 2, 2017 by ehurst

Here at Kiln of the Soul, we teach that Biblical Law is self-enforcing. We as individuals struggle to enforce the divine will on ourselves, much less on anyone else. Yet we are obliged to try despite the inevitable failures. Moreover, … Continue reading →

Posted on November 3, 2017 by ehurst
