Big Idea of the Series:
Scattered throughout the Old Testament are strange things that God did. People don’t usually talk about these because they don’t agree with their view of God. These are not one-time weird things of God. These were written to tell us who God is and what He does. They are strange in order to get our attention.
Dead Bones Make Life?

Big Idea: God created light before He created the sun. How is that possible? Because the source of true light is God Himself!

Big Idea: God made Balaam’s donkey speak to teach Balaam that he did not know what was going on in the spiritual realm. It was a warning to Balaam and us that God can use dumb animals if humans won’t do the right thing.
Crazy Behavior for God?
