the earthquake in Uzziah's days (2021 archeology discovery)

 Pretty amazing recent discovery:  Some solid evidence for an earthquake in the 8th century BC. In the Bible there was a major earthquake referenced during that same time period in Amos and Zechariah:

"The words of Amos, ... in the days of Uzziah king of Judah... two years before the earthquake." (Amos 1:1)

"And ye shall flee [by] the valley of my mountains ... like as ye fled from before the earthquake in the days of Uzziah king of Judah." (Zechariah 14:5)

It's always fun to watch archeology catch up to the Scriptures and even color them for us a little.

God Has Spoken Series

Question: Where can I get the audio messages of Stephen Kaung's God Has Spoken series? If I could recommend only one book or series by Stephen Kaung it would be his God Has Spoken series. He shared a message for each book of the Bible, giving a simple overview and revealing the way to find Christ as you read. It is not only his classic set but it's His way with the Scriptures. Our brother could always find Christ and find Him as He's meant to be found. For a new believer and an old believer, this is the first set to have as guide through the Bible and a reference set to go back to later on.  Below are links to each of the original messages.   Old Testament  Introduction to the Old Testament Genesis -The Will of God Exodus -The Works of God Leviticus - The Ways of God Numbers -The Walk of God Deuteronomy - The Word of God Joshua - Possessing the Land   Judges - Possessing all the Possessions Ruth - Recovery of the Inheritance I Samuel - Epoch-...

Heart Sharing (with Spanish Translation): San José, Costa Rica August 2025

Note: These two messages are part of a larger series a few of us shared. (I'll add a playlist for that once I have it). These two can stand alone as well. The first crowd was there on a Wed night for a weekly worship time. The second crowd was a set of those serving in the church (mostly).
