Noah – Part II

During Vacation Bible School Doug Reynolds taught two lessons on Noah.  These are those lessons edited for posting on the Church’s website. Noah – Part II Genesis 6: 14 – 22: The Ark, The Promise, and The Faith In Chapter 6, we see the results of a world turned away from God.  We will meet Noah, perhaps the greatest example of faith in scripture.  And, we will discuss the preparation of the ark.  Please continue to remember that the earth…
