The Bible can be difficult to understand. I research each chapter, including the genealogy, in depth. I also include maps. The purposes of this book are to spread God's word to those who are unable to access my website and to bring others to Christ so they can enjoy eternity in heaven. In Romans 10:13-14, it says, "For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved. How then shall they call on Him in whom they have not believed? and how shall they believe in Him of whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher?" I believe being able to understand His word helps us to grow and keeps us close to our wonderful heavenly Father. Why did Noah choose a dove and a raven to send out after the rains had stopped? What is the purpose of the long and boring "begats"? Leigh Smith uses prayer and extensive research to answer these and many other thought-provoking questions in Beginnings, the first book of a series, to help you understand the Bible.
