Genesis 5 More male and female distinctions and at last a dissenting voice in this discussion… Chapter 5 recap: A being called God made mankind- male and female display attributes of God. Fast forward through some genealogy Adam lives for some period of years with his wife Eve. The assertion here is that they had…
Read chapter 4 This chapter presents some ancient things that “modern” thought (in academia, media, entertainment) really scoffs at- namely the idea of there being male and female. Biologically, there are only two gender possibilities: male or female. The Bible and cultural norms presented that concept for approximately 6000 years of human history. (Rabbit trails:…
This week the blog will start a discussion of chapter 3 of Genesis. But before we do that- how about a recap of some of my assertions from Genesis 1 and 2? First assertion: This world and the universe that surrounds it were built by Someone. (I am not that Someone. Anyone who knows me…
Two things to start off- First is an apology for potentially alienating readers by quoting/posting an entire chapter of Genesis. Hopefully if you are “into” this blog discussion you are reading the chapters on your own… to keep me honest. The Second thing is that this is actually the second blogpost of the year about…
Captain’s Log: Stardate? Nah, I’m not a captain of anything more than my own family and we now live in Arkansas and not in outer space somewhere. So I’ll give the time and date there (here in Fort Smith) 6:24AM Wednesday Jan 1st, In the year of Our Lord 2020. This blog was supposed to…
What happens if the intended blog doesn’t launch? Well, this blog has been stuck for an additional 2 1/2 years after the intended launch date… So, we launch now… Here’s the plan: pick up a copy of the Bible and read Genesis chapter 1. That’s it! Simple, right- we can talk about specific versions later-…
Wow! Already two weeks into the second month of the year… That means I am already 6 weeks or 6 chapters behind in diving into the book of Genesis. Readers of this blog must be the most patient people on the planet or you have found much more interesting things to occupy your minds. Hopefully…

I help to run a small theatre company in Northern California, and direct and perform there, and elsewhere,…
Hi, this is Andy, one of Phil’s brothers. I am also a Christian, or as Phil put it, “an imperfect follower of Jesus”, and boy am I painfully aware of those imperfections. I am also father to three amazing kids, 2 daughters and a son, and grandfather to a little girl with the greatest smile…
Ooooooooh! A second blogpost! Wooohooo!!! It’s the little things in life… Hopefully there will be 50 more Brothers Perspectives blogposts in 2015. Theoretically one per week (That gives us 2 weeks off sometime this coming year.) Soon, you (The reader) will get to hear from Dan and Andy as they put together a short bio…
So here goes. This first blog post is meant to give a very short history and set the ground rules for the discussion. My two brothers and I have discussed over the past 5 years (it could actually be longer than that) and to varying depths how we came to our current “beliefs” about how…
