Before the Foundation

The Story

Every major paradigm shift in human history — from the invention of writing to artificial intelligence — is not random human progress but the sovereign unfolding of God's predetermined plan (Ephesians 1:4–11) to reach His elect across every generation, using tools He ordained before time began. If God chose His people before the foundation of the world, and if He works all things according to the counsel of His will, then what role do the great technological revolutions of human history play in His eternal purpose? Before the Foundation is a journey through history, theology, and technology, connecting the doctrine of election to every paradigm shift from written language to AI. It's a book for believers interested in theology, history, and technology—accessible enough for a layperson, substantive enough for a seminary student.
