The Ark, the Blueprints, and Modern Engineering

In this episode of Taking a Closer Look, we examine the biblical description of the Genesis and break down the dimensions of the Ark described in its account of Noah's Ark. Rather than treating it as a vague ancient story, we explore it through a practical, engineering lens—translating cubits into modern measurements and visualizing what a structure like this would actually look like. To make the scale more relatable, we compare the Ark’s dimensions to modern freight railroad cars and industrial transport design, showing just how massive and functionally structured this vessel would have been. We also touch on its multi-deck layout, internal compartmentalization, and stability ratios that resemble principles still used in modern naval engineering. This episode invites listeners to rethink familiar imagery and consider how the Ark’s design—at least on paper—translates into something closer to a floating freight system than a simple wooden boat.

The Hidden Years: While Spiritual Growth Takes Time

Why does spiritual growth often take so much longer than we expect? In this episode, we explore the biblical pattern of God's preparation through the "hidden years"—those seasons when progress feels slow, unseen, or uncertain. Looking at the lives of Moses, Joseph, David, Peter, Paul, and ultimately Jesus, we discover how God uses waiting, hardship, and ordinary faithfulness to shape character and prepare His people for the work ahead. If you've ever wondered whether your current season has a purpose, this conversation offers encouragement and a reminder that what feels like delay may actually be God's preparation for something greater. Join us as we examine why spiritual growth takes time and how God is often doing His deepest work behind the scenes.

What Does Corruption Mean? A Look Into Genesis 6

In today's episode we are going to explore Genesis 6 and the meaning of "corruption," focusing in the days of Noah.  There is so much bound up in these verses that apply to today world where when we look out we many times ask, "what is happening, what is going on?"  The answer many times brings us back to corruption.  In this episode, we break down Genesis 6 and explore how corruption is described in Scripture, not just as individual short comings or sins, but as a deep breakdown of society that leads to violence and disorder.  We also look at Noah as a contrast in the middle of a collapsing world.  This is not just an ancient story-it's a window into how moral corruption spreads and what faithfulness looks like in the middle of it.
