Valley of Baca
June 06, 2011
Baca, the Valley of Weeping. Who has not passed through it at some time in their life? And that's just it, for me and those I know, it's only a valley that occasionally must be traversed. But what of those who actually live in this valley, who have lived in this valley all their lives ...

Valley of Gerar
May 23, 2011
Beware of this valley. It's dangerous. The name itself, Gerar, means to drag off roughly. What happened here? In Genesis 26:12-22 Isaac, Abraham's son, has been mightily blessed by God and has "became very great," so great in fact that the Philistines who li...

Valley of Shaveh
May 16, 2011
I was surprised to find Abraham in another valley, the Valley of Shaveh (Genesis 14:17-20) right after his victory over King Chedorlaomer. Why was he there and not back up in the mountains since valleys are taken as low points in our lives? Only after giving it some thought did it seem r...
