When it comes to God, you are not to look at time in the same way.

Dr. Tony Evans says God's timing includes far more than what we can presently see.

God has a sovereign plan. He knows what he's coming back, but he also knows things are happening along the way.

This is the alternative broadcast featuring the timeless biblical teachings from the archives of Dr. Tony Evans.

It's easy to get so caught up in the pressures of everyday life that we lose sight of the bigger picture.

Today, Dr. Evans challenges us to look beyond the temporary to catch a

glimpse of God's promises for the future. Let's join him as he begins. When you go to a restaurant

and you sit down, the first thing they're going to do is give you a menu. The menu is a written documentation of what the restaurant has to offer.

You can sometimes salivate merely by reading the menu.

Sometimes the menu is so exciting to read, your taste buds can begin to feel it.

Ooh, that looks good.

Oh, maybe I want to try that.

Ooh, I think, boy, you sometimes are wrestling with the text of the menu.

Then after you have been given a menu and had time to review the words that are on it,

someone comes up who will do exegesis on the menu.

It's a waiter or a waitress.

They will come and their knowledge of the menu can give you inside information that merely reading it doesn't offer you.

In fact, they will offer you a Q&A session so that you might have clarity.

In fact, the waiter or the waitress may give you personal testimony

and say, well, I've tried this and I like that.

They will also make personal recommendations.

You ought to try this.
