Welcome to the in touch podcast with Charles Stanley for Monday October 28th.

The story of Noah and The Arc is more than a Children's Sunday School story.

Today's podcast begins a series on courage

that leads off with a powerful lesson

for believers of all ages.

Courage is a godly characteristic.

Courage is following difficult instructions in the face of danger.

Not halting at them, but following them and doing what you know is right.

Well, I want us to look at this passage of scripture, and beginning in the fifth verse of the sixth chapter of Genesis,

then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth and that every

intent of the thoughts of the heart was only evil continually. The Lord was sorry, that is he was regretful that he had made man on

the earth and he was grieved in his heart. The Lord said, I will blot out man whom I have created from the face of the land, from man to animals, to

creeping things in the birds of the sky, for I am sorry that I have made them. But Noah found favour in the hours of the Lord, and these are the

records of the generations of Noah. Noah was a righteous man blameless in his time, Noah walked with God.

Noah became the father of three sons, Shim, Ham, and Jageth.

Now the earth was corrupt in the sight of God and the earth was filled with violence.

God looked on the earth and behold it was corrupt,

for all flesh had corrupted their way upon the earth. Then God said to Noah, the end of all

flesh is come before me, for the earth is filled with violence because of them

and behold I am about to destroy them with the earth.

Make for yourself an arc of gopher wood and you shall make the arc with and she'll cover it inside and out will pitch.

Now the question is this.
