Hearing God’s Voice in Luke 5:33-39 Most of us are carrying a mental list of what a serious Christian does. Read at 5am. Journal every insight. Pray an hour without your mind wandering. And when we don’t measure up to it, we assume we’re not as close to God as other people are. I had planned to move into Luke 6 today, but the Lord kept bringing me back to the end of chapter 5. In our daily Bible study we’re still at Levi’s banquet, where someone brings Jesus that exact complaint about his followers. His answer surprised me. He doesn’t defend their devotion and he doesn’t apologize for them. He talks about a wedding, a torn garment, and wine bursting out of an old skin. Join me on an immersive Bible Study Experience.

Jesus said be quiet and come out, and it left.

Today we finish Luke 4 in Capernaum, where Jesus starts proving line by line everything He claimed back in Nazareth. A man held by a demon walks out free. A woman burning with fever gets up and makes dinner. A whole town brings its sick and He touches them one at a time. We'll look at what first-century exorcism actually looked like, why Jesus refused to let the demon talk, and one correction worth hearing if you've ever been told your illness was spiritual.

]]> 683 Does God Owe You Anything? (Luke 4:16-30) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Hearing God in Luke: Within six verses of saying Scripture had been fulfilled in their hearing, Jesus' hometown was dragging Him toward a cliff. What set them off is worth understanding. Today we're in Luke 4:16-30. Jesus announces the year of the Lord's favor, which was Jubilee, and then He stops reading Isaiah mid-sentence.

We're starting Luke chapter 4 in our fall Bible study, and before we get to the three temptations, there's something in the first two verses most of us read right past. Jesus was full of the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit is the one who led Him into the wilderness. The hard season wasn't a detour from the assignment. It was part of it. Today we look at the forty days, why that number matters, and how Jesus fought as a Spirit-empowered man rather than by pulling rank.

]]> 664 How Should Christians Handle Halloween? Listener Questions | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Every year around this time I get the same question. What do we do about Halloween? You'll hear everything from it's a free-for-all with no spiritual implication, to turn the lights off and hide in the house. My answer lands somewhere in the middle, and it starts here: I don't want to live in a way that hands the devil my days. Today we take on Halloween, and then a harder question about free will and the passages where God hardens a heart. Bible Study Live is a small-group Bible study trip with Rachael Groll.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe How should Christians handle Halloween? I'm answering this as both a parent and a former children's pastor. I grew up in a conservative Christian environment and later served in a charismatic one, so I've watched different churches handle this very differently. Here's my baseline. As Christians we're called to take light into the darkness, not run from it. Most Christians would agree. But for some reason we treat Halloween as the one exception. I don't want to give the devil any of my days. If I'm on this earth a hundred years and I hide every Halloween, that's a hundred days I handed over out of fear. That said, I won't pretend there's nothing there. There are real spiritual implications around Halloween. So my answer isn't either extreme. What does a good alternative look like? When I was a children's pastor, we did a trunk or treat. We played music from Jump Start 3, a ministry that set Scripture to music kids actually liked, and gave away their CDs. We served a lot of low income families whose kids didn't get CDs bought for them. We used that same music in Sunday school because it got God's Word into kids in a way they remembered. We had rules for the trunks. Nothing evil, nothing scary, nothing representing the occult. We had a Candyland trunk and an apple harvest trunk. We ran contests and giveaways and made it a genuinely fun night, so families had somewhere good to go. If your church does something like that, it's a great option. When does a church alternative go wrong? I've also seen the other side of it. We took our youngest daughter to a trunk or treat at a local church. They'd advertised a fall harvest party, so we weren't expecting anything unusual. It turned out to be inside the building, and to get in you had to walk through a black tunnel with skeletons on the walls, stinky smoke, and fire. I thought maybe it was one of those heaven-or-hell presentations, which I'm not a fan of, but you couldn't turn around and you couldn't get out. When we came through, the gymnasium was covered in scary, creepy Halloween decorations. My husband and I looked at each other and we were out. Then we met the pastor and he told us they wanted to make it even scarier next year. That's losing the plot entirely. There's no reason to invite families into a church building and hand them a haunted house. What else can we do on Halloween? We're called to live in the world and not of it, so this has looked like different things for our family over the years. Sometimes when we went house to house, we gave something instead of taking something. Sometimes we'd make it an exchange and ask people if they needed prayer. Here's what I keep coming back to. Yes, there is evil happening that night. It's also a night when kids and families are out looking for something. They are literally going door to door asking. If you live in a neighborhood with kids, you could hand out Scripture music, or candy with a Bible verse attached. Or you could simply say, I love your costume, is there anything you need prayer for? This is one of the few nights a year when we have a natural reason to meet our neighbors. If we have the good news, why wouldn't we offer it on a night when people are at our door asking for something? Now, if you start handing out ghosts and goblins, you've missed the plot. But hiding with the lights off and pretending we're not home is literally hiding your light under a bushel. We all learned that song as kids. Halloween is a good chance to actually live it. What about my kids? If you're going to participate, it comes with a conversation, and it's still your responsibility to protect your children. Letting them dress up as a witch is not okay. But there are plenty of options. They can be a favorite character or dress up as popcorn. There's a lot of room between a witch costume and hiding in the house. While you're out, if a house looks evil, you skip it. Or maybe you pray for it. Or maybe you go up and offer to pray for those people. That depends on the age of your kids. If you have a four-year-old, I wouldn't. If you have a sixteen-year-old, maybe you should. If we take the mentality of hiding from evil, where does it stop? We're not called to hide. We're called to face it. What about "God hardened his heart" and free will? A listener wrote in accepting that God is sovereign while also believing we can choose to turn away, and wrestling with Romans 9 and the Pharaoh passages. You're not the first to sit with this. Scholars have discussed it for centuries. Start in the garden. God put the tree there and gave a real command with a real consequence. That means they had a choice, and that matters, because love that can't say no isn't love. It's control. That theme runs all the way through. Moses sets before Israel life and death and tells them to choose life. Joshua says choose this day whom you will serve. God calls people to respond, but He doesn't force it. So what about Pharaoh? Before the plagues begin, God tells Moses that Pharaoh's heart will be hardened. Read that alone and it's troubling. Read the whole story and something else emerges. Again and again, Pharaoh hardens his own heart. He sees God's power, experiences a plague, asks Moses to stop it, the plague is removed, then he changes his mind and hardens his heart again. Only later does Exodus say the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart. This isn't a willing heart that God forces into rebellion. Pharaoh is already resisting. God allows that resistance to solidify and uses it for His purpose. The Hebrew helps. One word is chazaq, meaning to strengthen or make firm. When I taught this to kids I compared it to Jell-O. The ingredients are all there, and eventually they set. Another is kabed, carrying the sense of making something heavy. The picture is God confirming Pharaoh in a direction he already chose. That connects to Romans 1, where three times Paul says God gave them over to the sin they had chosen. Sometimes God's judgment isn't forcing someone to do what they don't want. It's allowing them further down the road they keep insisting on. How should I read Romans 9? In context, which means reading 9, 10, and 11 together. Those chapter divisions were added centuries later by scribes. Paul doesn't open Romans 9 with a lecture on predestination. He opens by grieving, saying he has unceasing anguish because his own people have rejected Jesus. The question he's answering is whether God's promise to Israel failed. His answer is no. God's purposes have not failed, and He has always been free to choose how He accomplishes them. That's the context for I will have mercy on whom I have mercy. The point isn't that God randomly decides who gets saved. It's that He decides how He accomplishes His plan. Keep reading. In chapter 10, Paul says everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Everyone. Then that Israel can be grafted back in, and eventually that God has bound everyone over to disobedience so He may have mercy on them all. How do both things hold together? Scripture doesn't feel the need to pick one and throw out the other. At Pentecost, Peter says Jesus was handed over according to God's deliberate plan, and in the same breath tells the people they were responsible for His death. Paul says work out your salvation with fear and trembling, then adds that it is God who works in you. We also read difficult passages in light of clear ones. God wants all people to be saved. Jesus stood over Jerusalem and said how often He longed to gather her children, and they were not willing. So here's where I land. God is sovereign and nothing is outside His authority, and our choices are real. I don't believe God creates some people for salvation and others for hell. That isn't consistent with His character, and predestining someone to hell and then holding them responsible for a choice they were never free to make throws out free will entirely. He is powerful enough to accomplish His purposes even when people resist. Pharaoh said no and God didn't lose control. Mystery isn't the same thing as contradiction. When we want to know what God is like, we look at Jesus.

When I was a children's pastor, we did a trunk or treat. We played music from Jump Start 3, a ministry that set Scripture to music kids actually liked, and gave away their CDs. We served a lot of low income families whose kids didn't get CDs bought for them. We used that same music in Sunday school because it got God's Word into kids in a way they remembered.

We had rules for the trunks. Nothing evil, nothing scary, nothing representing the occult. We had a Candyland trunk and an apple harvest trunk. We ran contests and giveaways and made it a genuinely fun night, so families had somewhere good to go. If your church does something like that, it's a great option.

When does a church alternative go wrong?

I've also seen the other side of it.

We took our youngest daughter to a trunk or treat at a local church. They'd advertised a fall harvest party, so we weren't expecting anything unusual. It turned out to be inside the building, and to get in you had to walk through a black tunnel with skeletons on the walls, stinky smoke, and fire. I thought maybe it was one of those heaven-or-hell presentations, which I'm not a fan of, but you couldn't turn around and you couldn't get out.

When we came through, the gymnasium was covered in scary, creepy Halloween decorations. My husband and I looked at each other and we were out. Then we met the pastor and he told us they wanted to make it even scarier next year.

That's losing the plot entirely. There's no reason to invite families into a church building and hand them a haunted house.

What else can we do on Halloween?

We're called to live in the world and not of it, so this has looked like different things for our family over the years. Sometimes when we went house to house, we gave something instead of taking something. Sometimes we'd make it an exchange and ask people if they needed prayer.

Here's what I keep coming back to. Yes, there is evil happening that night. It's also a night when kids and families are out looking for something. They are literally going door to door asking.

If you live in a neighborhood with kids, you could hand out Scripture music, or candy with a Bible verse attached. Or you could simply say, I love your costume, is there anything you need prayer for?

This is one of the few nights a year when we have a natural reason to meet our neighbors. If we have the good news, why wouldn't we offer it on a night when people are at our door asking for something?

Now, if you start handing out ghosts and goblins, you've missed the plot. But hiding with the lights off and pretending we're not home is literally hiding your light under a bushel. We all learned that song as kids. Halloween is a good chance to actually live it.

What about my kids?

If you're going to participate, it comes with a conversation, and it's still your responsibility to protect your children.

Letting them dress up as a witch is not okay. But there are plenty of options. They can be a favorite character or dress up as popcorn. There's a lot of room between a witch costume and hiding in the house.

While you're out, if a house looks evil, you skip it. Or maybe you pray for it. Or maybe you go up and offer to pray for those people. That depends on the age of your kids. If you have a four-year-old, I wouldn't. If you have a sixteen-year-old, maybe you should.

If we take the mentality of hiding from evil, where does it stop? We're not called to hide. We're called to face it.

What about "God hardened his heart" and free will?

A listener wrote in accepting that God is sovereign while also believing we can choose to turn away, and wrestling with Romans 9 and the Pharaoh passages. You're not the first to sit with this. Scholars have discussed it for centuries.

Start in the garden. God put the tree there and gave a real command with a real consequence. That means they had a choice, and that matters, because love that can't say no isn't love. It's control. That theme runs all the way through. Moses sets before Israel life and death and tells them to choose life. Joshua says choose this day whom you will serve. God calls people to respond, but He doesn't force it.

So what about Pharaoh?

Before the plagues begin, God tells Moses that Pharaoh's heart will be hardened. Read that alone and it's troubling. Read the whole story and something else emerges.

Again and again, Pharaoh hardens his own heart. He sees God's power, experiences a plague, asks Moses to stop it, the plague is removed, then he changes his mind and hardens his heart again. Only later does Exodus say the Lord hardened Pharaoh's heart.

This isn't a willing heart that God forces into rebellion. Pharaoh is already resisting. God allows that resistance to solidify and uses it for His purpose.

The Hebrew helps. One word is chazaq, meaning to strengthen or make firm. When I taught this to kids I compared it to Jell-O. The ingredients are all there, and eventually they set. Another is kabed, carrying the sense of making something heavy. The picture is God confirming Pharaoh in a direction he already chose.

That connects to Romans 1, where three times Paul says God gave them over to the sin they had chosen. Sometimes God's judgment isn't forcing someone to do what they don't want. It's allowing them further down the road they keep insisting on.

How should I read Romans 9?

In context, which means reading 9, 10, and 11 together. Those chapter divisions were added centuries later by scribes.

Paul doesn't open Romans 9 with a lecture on predestination. He opens by grieving, saying he has unceasing anguish because his own people have rejected Jesus. The question he's answering is whether God's promise to Israel failed.

His answer is no. God's purposes have not failed, and He has always been free to choose how He accomplishes them. That's the context for I will have mercy on whom I have mercy. The point isn't that God randomly decides who gets saved. It's that He decides how He accomplishes His plan.

Keep reading. In chapter 10, Paul says everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved. Everyone. Then that Israel can be grafted back in, and eventually that God has bound everyone over to disobedience so He may have mercy on them all.

How do both things hold together?

Scripture doesn't feel the need to pick one and throw out the other. At Pentecost, Peter says Jesus was handed over according to God's deliberate plan, and in the same breath tells the people they were responsible for His death. Paul says work out your salvation with fear and trembling, then adds that it is God who works in you.

We also read difficult passages in light of clear ones. God wants all people to be saved. Jesus stood over Jerusalem and said how often He longed to gather her children, and they were not willing.

So here's where I land. God is sovereign and nothing is outside His authority, and our choices are real. I don't believe God creates some people for salvation and others for hell. That isn't consistent with His character, and predestining someone to hell and then holding them responsible for a choice they were never free to make throws out free will entirely.

He is powerful enough to accomplish His purposes even when people resist. Pharaoh said no and God didn't lose control.

Mystery isn't the same thing as contradiction. When we want to know what God is like, we look at Jesus.

]]> 683 Does Your Messy Family Disqualify You? (Luke 3:23-38) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study I know what a lot of you are thinking. The genealogy. Are we really going there? We are, and there's a reason. If God had wanted a clean family tree for His Son, He had the power to arrange one. Instead He built this one, out of the overlooked and the outsider and the people who were wronged. Today we're finishing Luke 3 by walking through the lineage of Jesus and the women hidden inside a list that never names them. Links We visit Luke's house in Rome on our Bible Study Live trip.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why does Luke put the genealogy here? Matthew opens his gospel with a genealogy. Luke buries his at the end of chapter three, right after the baptism and right before the temptation. Luke is a details guy, so the placement is intentional. Look at what comes immediately before. The heavens open, the Spirit descends like a dove, and a voice says you are my beloved Son. Then Luke runs the family line all the way back to Adam, who he calls the son of God. And look at what comes right after. Next week we study the temptation, where the enemy says if you are the Son of God. So Luke sandwiches this family tree between heaven declaring the sonship of Jesus and the devil attacking it. In the ancient world, genealogies were identity documents. Why does it say Jesus was about thirty? Thirty was a meaningful number. The Levites entered temple service at thirty. David became king at thirty. Joseph entered Pharaoh's service at thirty. Ezekiel's visions began at thirty. It was the age a man was considered ready to carry the responsibility of ministry. Luke says about thirty because he's a careful historian. The point is that this is not a kid. He's ready. Why is Luke's genealogy different from Matthew's? Matthew starts with Abraham and walks down through David to Jesus. He's making a Jewish case, laying out the royal credentials. Luke flips it. He starts with Jesus and walks backward through David, past Abraham, all the way to Adam, and then one step further to God. That difference is intentional. Matthew stops at Abraham because his point is the covenant with Israel. Luke pushes past Abraham because his point is the entire human race. He's a Gentile writing to Gentiles, saying this is for everybody. Remember what Luke quoted from Isaiah a few verses earlier. All flesh will see the salvation of God. Matthew and Mark stop that quotation short. Luke carries it all the way through, and then he builds a family tree that backs it up. And think about the timing. John just told the crowd that having Abraham as their father wasn't enough. Then Luke shows that the family line of Jesus goes back further than Abraham anyway. Why do the two lists split after David? From Abraham to David, Matthew and Luke match. After David they diverge almost completely. Matthew traces the line through Solomon, the royal line. Luke traces it through Nathan, a different son of David. They also give different fathers for Joseph. Matthew says Jacob. Luke says Heli. Scholarship is divided. One explanation is that Luke is giving Mary's line, with Heli as her father and Joseph listed as son-in-law, since Jewish lists didn't name women. Another is that Matthew gives legal rights to the throne while Luke gives physical descent. They run through different members of the same families, so they aren't in conflict. Why does any of this matter? Here's what struck me. Most of these names appear nowhere else in Scripture. We know nothing about them. No recorded words. And they're in the line of Jesus. Dozens of people who lived and raised children and died without making a mark on history, except that they were part of the lineage of the Messiah. God was working through generations who never knew what they were part of. They died without ever seeing it. For a Jewish person, your genealogy was your identity. Wrapped up in it were land rights, your tribe, and sometimes your job. A priest had to prove descent from a priest in order to serve. And it was verifiable. Genealogies were part of the public archives, and Josephus talks about consulting them for his own work. When Luke published this list, people could go check it. Those records were destroyed when Rome leveled Jerusalem around AD 70. At the time Luke wrote, you could still look it up. Why does it end with Adam, the son of God? Luke is the only gospel writer who takes it all the way back. Paul later calls Jesus the last Adam in 1 Corinthians, and Luke is making that same connection here, using a list instead of an argument. The first Adam was tested in a garden where he had everything, and he failed. The very next thing we read in Luke is Jesus going into the wilderness, hungry for forty days, tested. And He doesn't fail. Where are the women in this list? There aren't any named. Matthew includes four. Luke includes none, because he's writing the way historians of that era wrote. But here's what I can't get past. Every name in this list required a woman. And if Luke is in fact tracing Mary's family, then this entire list is her family tree, recorded under the men's names. So let me point out a few of them. Eve, the wife of Adam. The very first promise of a rescuer in Scripture was given to her, not to Adam. God tells the serpent that her offspring will crush his head. This whole line Luke just traced is the working out of a promise spoken to a woman about her children. Adam named her Eve because she was the mother of all the living, and Luke traces Jesus back through all the living. Noah's wife. We don't know her name. We know she boarded the ark, survived the flood, and raised the sons the whole human race descends from, including Shem, who is in Luke's list. Everything after Genesis 8 runs through a woman nobody ever named. Sarah, attached to the son of Isaac. Twenty-five years waiting on a promise, into her nineties, past any reasonable hope. She laughed when she heard it. Gabriel later tells Mary that nothing is impossible with God, echoing Sarah's story to a young girl who knew it well. Leah, attached to the son of Judah. Jacob loved Rachel. Leah was the wife he didn't choose, and Genesis says plainly she wasn't loved. She names her first sons in a way that reflects that ache. Then the fourth son she names Judah, which means praise, saying this time I will praise the Lord. She stopped naming her children after the love she couldn't get and named one after the God who saw her. And Judah is the son the Messiah came through. The unloved wife is the great-grandmother of the royal line. Tamar, attached to the son of Perez. Widowed twice in Judah's family and left in limbo. Under the law she had a right to a husband from that family, and Judah withheld it. A woman with no power, denied what she was owed, who did the only thing available to keep her family line alive. Rahab, the mother of Boaz. A Canaanite living in Jericho under judgment, with a shameful job. She hid the Israelite spies because she had heard what their God had done and she believed it. Hebrews 11 lists her among the faithful. Her great-grandson was King David. Ruth, the mother of Obed. A Moabite, and Deuteronomy 23 restricted Moabites from the assembly of Israel. A widow with no children, which meant no security of any kind. She followed Naomi and Naomi's God, and gleaned leftover grain at the edges of fields, the provision the law made for the poor. Two generations in a row, the royal line runs through foreign women. Bathsheba, attached to the son of Nathan. According to 1 Chronicles 3, Nathan and Solomon had the same mother. Her story was not a clean one, and it was not one she chose. What do we do with that? Most of these women are invisible to us. Hundreds of years of women whose names we don't have, who carried babies and delivered them and fed them and taught them and buried them and kept going. All of them part of the story. And it wasn't only the respectable ones. There's a woman nobody wanted. A widow who had to fight for her place. A Canaanite with a shameful job. A foreigner from an excluded nation. A woman a king took advantage of. If God had wanted a clean family tree, He could have arranged one. He built this one instead. So if you feel unseen, or unchosen, or like your story is too messy to be useful, this list is for you. You're in good company, and the company is the family line of Jesus. My own family line is messy too. Praise God that He takes the mess and redeems it.

The heavens open, the Spirit descends like a dove, and a voice says you are my beloved Son. Then Luke runs the family line all the way back to Adam, who he calls the son of God. And look at what comes right after. Next week we study the temptation, where the enemy says if you are the Son of God. So Luke sandwiches this family tree between heaven declaring the sonship of Jesus and the devil attacking it. In the ancient world, genealogies were identity documents. Why does it say Jesus was about thirty? Thirty was a meaningful number. The Levites entered temple service at thirty. David became king at thirty. Joseph entered Pharaoh's service at thirty. Ezekiel's visions began at thirty. It was the age a man was considered ready to carry the responsibility of ministry. Luke says about thirty because he's a careful historian. The point is that this is not a kid. He's ready. Why is Luke's genealogy different from Matthew's? Matthew starts with Abraham and walks down through David to Jesus. He's making a Jewish case, laying out the royal credentials. Luke flips it. He starts with Jesus and walks backward through David, past Abraham, all the way to Adam, and then one step further to God. That difference is intentional. Matthew stops at Abraham because his point is the covenant with Israel. Luke pushes past Abraham because his point is the entire human race. He's a Gentile writing to Gentiles, saying this is for everybody. Remember what Luke quoted from Isaiah a few verses earlier. All flesh will see the salvation of God. Matthew and Mark stop that quotation short. Luke carries it all the way through, and then he builds a family tree that backs it up. And think about the timing. John just told the crowd that having Abraham as their father wasn't enough. Then Luke shows that the family line of Jesus goes back further than Abraham anyway. Why do the two lists split after David? From Abraham to David, Matthew and Luke match. After David they diverge almost completely. Matthew traces the line through Solomon, the royal line. Luke traces it through Nathan, a different son of David. They also give different fathers for Joseph. Matthew says Jacob. Luke says Heli. Scholarship is divided. One explanation is that Luke is giving Mary's line, with Heli as her father and Joseph listed as son-in-law, since Jewish lists didn't name women. Another is that Matthew gives legal rights to the throne while Luke gives physical descent. They run through different members of the same families, so they aren't in conflict. Why does any of this matter? Here's what struck me. Most of these names appear nowhere else in Scripture. We know nothing about them. No recorded words. And they're in the line of Jesus. Dozens of people who lived and raised children and died without making a mark on history, except that they were part of the lineage of the Messiah. God was working through generations who never knew what they were part of. They died without ever seeing it. For a Jewish person, your genealogy was your identity. Wrapped up in it were land rights, your tribe, and sometimes your job. A priest had to prove descent from a priest in order to serve. And it was verifiable. Genealogies were part of the public archives, and Josephus talks about consulting them for his own work. When Luke published this list, people could go check it. Those records were destroyed when Rome leveled Jerusalem around AD 70. At the time Luke wrote, you could still look it up. Why does it end with Adam, the son of God? Luke is the only gospel writer who takes it all the way back. Paul later calls Jesus the last Adam in 1 Corinthians, and Luke is making that same connection here, using a list instead of an argument. The first Adam was tested in a garden where he had everything, and he failed. The very next thing we read in Luke is Jesus going into the wilderness, hungry for forty days, tested. And He doesn't fail. Where are the women in this list? There aren't any named. Matthew includes four. Luke includes none, because he's writing the way historians of that era wrote. But here's what I can't get past. Every name in this list required a woman. And if Luke is in fact tracing Mary's family, then this entire list is her family tree, recorded under the men's names. So let me point out a few of them. Eve, the wife of Adam. The very first promise of a rescuer in Scripture was given to her, not to Adam. God tells the serpent that her offspring will crush his head. This whole line Luke just traced is the working out of a promise spoken to a woman about her children. Adam named her Eve because she was the mother of all the living, and Luke traces Jesus back through all the living. Noah's wife. We don't know her name. We know she boarded the ark, survived the flood, and raised the sons the whole human race descends from, including Shem, who is in Luke's list. Everything after Genesis 8 runs through a woman nobody ever named. Sarah, attached to the son of Isaac. Twenty-five years waiting on a promise, into her nineties, past any reasonable hope. She laughed when she heard it. Gabriel later tells Mary that nothing is impossible with God, echoing Sarah's story to a young girl who knew it well. Leah, attached to the son of Judah. Jacob loved Rachel. Leah was the wife he didn't choose, and Genesis says plainly she wasn't loved. She names her first sons in a way that reflects that ache. Then the fourth son she names Judah, which means praise, saying this time I will praise the Lord. She stopped naming her children after the love she couldn't get and named one after the God who saw her. And Judah is the son the Messiah came through. The unloved wife is the great-grandmother of the royal line. Tamar, attached to the son of Perez. Widowed twice in Judah's family and left in limbo. Under the law she had a right to a husband from that family, and Judah withheld it. A woman with no power, denied what she was owed, who did the only thing available to keep her family line alive. Rahab, the mother of Boaz. A Canaanite living in Jericho under judgment, with a shameful job. She hid the Israelite spies because she had heard what their God had done and she believed it. Hebrews 11 lists her among the faithful. Her great-grandson was King David. Ruth, the mother of Obed. A Moabite, and Deuteronomy 23 restricted Moabites from the assembly of Israel. A widow with no children, which meant no security of any kind. She followed Naomi and Naomi's God, and gleaned leftover grain at the edges of fields, the provision the law made for the poor. Two generations in a row, the royal line runs through foreign women. Bathsheba, attached to the son of Nathan. According to 1 Chronicles 3, Nathan and Solomon had the same mother. Her story was not a clean one, and it was not one she chose. What do we do with that? Most of these women are invisible to us. Hundreds of years of women whose names we don't have, who carried babies and delivered them and fed them and taught them and buried them and kept going. All of them part of the story. And it wasn't only the respectable ones. There's a woman nobody wanted. A widow who had to fight for her place. A Canaanite with a shameful job. A foreigner from an excluded nation. A woman a king took advantage of. If God had wanted a clean family tree, He could have arranged one. He built this one instead. So if you feel unseen, or unchosen, or like your story is too messy to be useful, this list is for you. You're in good company, and the company is the family line of Jesus. My own family line is messy too. Praise God that He takes the mess and redeems it.

We are, and there's a reason. If God had wanted a clean family tree for His Son, He had the power to arrange one. Instead He built this one, out of the overlooked and the outsider and the people who were wronged.

Today we're finishing Luke 3 by walking through the lineage of Jesus and the women hidden inside a list that never names them.

Thirty was a meaningful number. The Levites entered temple service at thirty. David became king at thirty. Joseph entered Pharaoh's service at thirty. Ezekiel's visions began at thirty. It was the age a man was considered ready to carry the responsibility of ministry.

Luke says about thirty because he's a careful historian. The point is that this is not a kid. He's ready.

]]> 619 Why Does God Let Things Get Stripped Away? (Luke 3:16-22) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study John says the Messiah is coming with a winnowing fork in His hand. Most of us read that as a threat. But a farmer doesn't go out to the threshing floor to destroy things. He goes out because he wants the grain. Today we're in Luke 3, talking about the different kinds of baptism, what the winnowing fork actually did, and why the chaff is not what most of us assume it is.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What does the word baptism actually mean? The Greek is baptizo, and it means to dip, immerse, or plunge something fully into something else. Outside the Bible it was used for dyeing cloth and for sinking ships. So the picture we get is total immersion. I'm not saying anything bad about your baptism if you had a sprinkle. I'm saying the biblical image is immersion, and that matters for understanding what follows. Every baptism in Scripture answers two questions. Who is doing the dipping, and what are you being dipped into? Was baptism a new idea? Not at all. For the Jewish people, ritual washing was ordinary. They had stone pools for ceremonial cleansing, and archaeologists have found dozens of them around the temple. Remember the water jars Jesus turned into wine? Those were ceremonial cleansing jars. When a Gentile converted to Judaism, immersion was part of that conversion. Paul even looks back at the Exodus and calls it a baptism. In 1 Corinthians he says Israel was baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They went down into the water and came out a free people. That's a beautiful picture, because John is standing in the Jordan, the same river Israel crossed to enter the promised land. That water was always telling a baptism story. Why did John tell Jewish people to get in the water? This is the part that would have stung. These weren't Gentile outsiders converting. These were Jewish people, including religious leaders, the ones who had just been talking about being descendants of Abraham. And John is telling them to go into the water just like the converts do. That's why he says a few verses earlier not to begin saying they have Abraham for their father. Your family line won't save you. You need to get in the water for yourself. What could John's baptism not do? John could get people wet. He could call them to repent. But he could not forgive their sins and he could not put the Spirit of God inside anyone. He was calling them to repent because he was preparing the way for Jesus. That's why he says someone mightier is coming, and that he isn't worthy to untie His sandal strap, which was the job of the lowest servant in a household. So water baptism is something a person can do for you. Baptism of the Spirit is something only Jesus can do in you. What does baptism with fire mean? Fire runs two directions in Scripture, and both are present here. One is purifying. Malachi said the coming Lord would be like a refiner's fire, burning the dross out of gold and silver. At Pentecost in Acts 2, Luke tells us there appeared tongues of fire. Fire burns off what doesn't belong and sets people on fire for God. The other is judgment, and look at the context. Right before this, fruitless trees get thrown into the fire. Right after, the chaff burns with unquenchable fire. How did harvesting actually work? Everyone in that crowd knew this process, because they'd watched it every harvest. First the cutting. Workers cut the stalks and hauled them to the threshing floor, a flat piece of packed hard ground, usually on a hilltop or exposed ridge, because they needed the wind. Then the threshing. They drove oxen over the grain, sometimes dragging a heavy wooden sledge, to break the stalks apart and loosen the kernel from the dry husk around it. Now you have a pile of mixed material: good grain, broken husks, dust, straw. Then the winnowing. A wooden fork or broad shovel scooped up the pile and threw it into the air, usually in late afternoon when the breeze picked up. The kernels are heavier so they fall back down. The chaff is light and papery, so the wind carries it off the ridge. They repeated that until nothing was left but clean grain. The grain went into the barn. The chaff was swept up and burned. Why does it matter that it's chaff and not weeds? Here's the detail most of us miss. The chaff isn't a weed from another field. The chaff is the husk that grew around the kernel. They came up on the same stalk, out of the same soil. So the winnowing fork isn't separating one crop from a different crop. This isn't even the wheat and the tares. He's separating what's useless from what's valuable inside the very same harvest. John is standing in front of a crowd of Jewish people who all technically share Abraham as their father, saying the Messiah is going to sort out what's real from what only looks like it belongs. What does the wind have to do with the Spirit? The winnowing doesn't work without wind. You can toss grain in the air all day, and without wind nothing separates. In both Hebrew and Greek, the word for wind is the same word for spirit. Ruach. Pneuma. Now look at where this sits. Verse 16 says He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit. Verse 17 says His winnowing fork is in His hand. The same Spirit who fills and empowers is also the wind that separates. That's why John puts these two images side by side. That imagery is everywhere. Psalm 1 says the wicked are like chaff the wind drives away. In Jeremiah, God says He will winnow them with a winnowing fork. Hosea compares faithless Israel to chaff on the threshing floor. Malachi, the last prophet before the four hundred years of silence, says the day is coming burning like a furnace and the arrogant will be chaff. So when John picks up this language, he's finishing a sentence the prophets of Israel started four hundred years earlier. Two more things worth noticing. Boaz was winnowing barley at the threshing floor in Bethlehem the night Ruth came to him. And in 2 Samuel, David bought a threshing floor, and that very spot later became the site of the temple. Where grain gets separated from chaff is often where Israel meets God. Is this happening now or later? Now. He says His winnowing fork is in His hand. Present tense. Harvest time is here. So John is telling this crowd that their family heritage and their religious activity won't survive the wind. But notice why the farmer is out there. He isn't on that floor to destroy things. He's there to get the grain. All the tossing and the wind and eventually the fire has one purpose, and that's wheat in the barn. Winnowing is what you do because you want the crop. So when the wind blows through our lives, when things get stripped away and we feel tossed around, often that isn't Him discarding us. It's Him holding on to us. Sometimes He's separating us from chaff we've let grow up around us, the things that desensitize us and distract us and keep us from producing the fruit He wants. That process isn't always pleasant. And we always have a choice. I've stubbornly held on to things I knew the Lord was asking me to give up, and there was a cost, sometimes financial and sometimes relational. Why was Jesus baptized if He had no sin? This is where we see clearly that not all baptisms are the same. John's was a baptism of repentance. Jesus had nothing to repent of. So His baptism was something different. While He was praying, heaven opened and the Holy Spirit descended on Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice said you are my beloved Son, with you I am well pleased. That dove was a sign God gave so people would recognize that Jesus was the one John had been announcing. We'll keep having this conversation as we move through Luke and into Acts. For now, I'd just ask you to loosen your grip on the idea that there's only one kind of baptism. This isn't the sprinkle versus dunk conversation. This is water baptism, the baptism of repentance, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, and our baptism into Christ. You don't have to have it figured out today.

What does the word baptism actually mean?

The Greek is baptizo, and it means to dip, immerse, or plunge something fully into something else. Outside the Bible it was used for dyeing cloth and for sinking ships.

So the picture we get is total immersion. I'm not saying anything bad about your baptism if you had a sprinkle. I'm saying the biblical image is immersion, and that matters for understanding what follows.

Every baptism in Scripture answers two questions. Who is doing the dipping, and what are you being dipped into?

Was baptism a new idea?

Not at all. For the Jewish people, ritual washing was ordinary. They had stone pools for ceremonial cleansing, and archaeologists have found dozens of them around the temple. Remember the water jars Jesus turned into wine? Those were ceremonial cleansing jars.

When a Gentile converted to Judaism, immersion was part of that conversion.

Paul even looks back at the Exodus and calls it a baptism. In 1 Corinthians he says Israel was baptized into Moses in the cloud and in the sea. They went down into the water and came out a free people.

That's a beautiful picture, because John is standing in the Jordan, the same river Israel crossed to enter the promised land. That water was always telling a baptism story.

Why did John tell Jewish people to get in the water?

This is the part that would have stung. These weren't Gentile outsiders converting. These were Jewish people, including religious leaders, the ones who had just been talking about being descendants of Abraham.

And John is telling them to go into the water just like the converts do.

That's why he says a few verses earlier not to begin saying they have Abraham for their father. Your family line won't save you. You need to get in the water for yourself.

What could John's baptism not do?

John could get people wet. He could call them to repent. But he could not forgive their sins and he could not put the Spirit of God inside anyone.

He was calling them to repent because he was preparing the way for Jesus. That's why he says someone mightier is coming, and that he isn't worthy to untie His sandal strap, which was the job of the lowest servant in a household.

So water baptism is something a person can do for you. Baptism of the Spirit is something only Jesus can do in you.

Fire runs two directions in Scripture, and both are present here.

One is purifying. Malachi said the coming Lord would be like a refiner's fire, burning the dross out of gold and silver. At Pentecost in Acts 2, Luke tells us there appeared tongues of fire. Fire burns off what doesn't belong and sets people on fire for God.

]]> 657 What Is the Difference Between Good Fruit and Bad Fruit? (Luke 3:7-17) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study I had a grape recently that was so good I dug through the flesh to save the seeds. Then on a walk down our road I tried some wild grapes growing by the side, and I spit them straight out. Same size. Same color. Vines that looked almost identical. That's the difference John is pressing on in Luke 3. He calls a crowd that walked miles into the desert a brood of vipers, and then tells them to bear fruit worthy of repentance. Today we're looking at what good fruit actually is, and why John switched metaphors from snakes to trees on purpose. Links We visit Luke's house in Rome on our Bible Study Live trip.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What does "brood of vipers" actually mean? It literally means offspring of vipers, and in that region they would have pictured a very poisonous snake like the echidna. In Matthew, this line is aimed at the Sadducees and Pharisees. In Luke, John says it to the crowds. That matters, because these were people who had walked miles into the desert to be baptized. Some religious leaders were there, but so were ordinary people. Luke shows John addressing the whole mixed audience at once, because he doesn't want anyone in that group feeling like the scolding was for somebody else. And he's attacking something specific. Their confidence rested on bloodline. Don't begin to say to yourselves that you have Abraham as your father. By claiming that, they were saying they were inside the covenant and not like the pagans or the Gentiles. John pushes back on the whole family identity argument. You want to talk about your father? Look at your family resemblance. You don't look like Abraham's children, because Abraham's children didn't act like this. You look like snakes. Jesus uses the same approach later in John 8 when He tells the religious leaders they are of their father, the devil. This is a long thread in Scripture. The first time we meet a serpent is in the garden. So when John says brood of vipers, he's linking their sin all the way back to original sin. Why does he ask who warned them to flee? Because they were an agrarian society, and they knew exactly what that picture meant. When farmers burned off a field, the snakes would come pouring out ahead of the flames, running for safety. Read it again. You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come. He's watching a crowd stream out into the desert to get in the water, and he's describing them as snakes scrambling out of a burning field. That fire imagery is everywhere in this passage. Two verses later he's talking about the axe at the root of the tree. By verse 17 it's the chaff burning. So there's an edge to his question. He isn't impressed that they showed up. He's asking whether they came to be changed or just to escape. Sometimes people call it fire insurance. Getting saved because you want out of the consequences, not because you want a relationship with God. Those aren't the same thing. Snakes running from a fire aren't repenting. They're relocating. They'll be the same snakes in a different field later. Why does he switch from snakes to trees? Because snakes don't produce fruit. They just produce more snakes. That's the point. Think about the snakes in your life. Are they producing fruit? No. They produce more chaos and more snakes. So John switches metaphors to point people in a different direction, and then he gets specific. Share your coat. Share your food. Stop overcharging. Stop extorting people. Stop accusing people falsely. Notice what every one of those has in common. They're all about how you treat other people, and three of them involve money. In Luke 3, good fruit is measured by what it does for your neighbor and whether you stopped using your position to take advantage of people. That's the contrast with the vipers. The problem with a snake is what it does to the people around it. It poisons them. Fruit does the opposite. Fruit feeds people. What does "worthy of repentance" mean? The Greek word is axios, and it has to do with weighing and balancing scales. Some translations say in keeping with repentance, others say worthy of repentance. Worthy is a little more accurate, because the idea is balance. The word for repentance is metanoia, from meta, meaning big change, and nous, meaning mind. A changed mind. Turn around and walk the other direction. So John is saying we're called to produce a life that weighs the same as the turn we claim to have made. If your mind really changed, something visible should balance out on the scale of your life. Isn't this harsh? John is intense, yes. But biblical prophets often used shocking language because comfortable language wasn't getting through. You may have heard the phrase tickling their ears. A lot of preaching comforts people instead of challenging them. That's not what people operating in the prophetic do. When you're talking to people claiming family legacy as their right to the kingdom, you have to make them face themselves and look at the fruit they're actually producing. What makes fruit good fruit? There's something in the Greek here worth catching. In verse nine the word for good is kalos. There's another word, agathos, which means morally good or useful. But kalos carries the sense of fine quality, beautiful, the kind of fruit you'd actually want to eat. The kind you'd save the seeds from. A tree can produce something that still isn't good fruit. Have you ever had a crab apple? Tiny, sour, and you'll get sick eating a handful. We have an old pear tree out back and every pear on it is small and wormy and useless. It's technically fruit. It's still useless. This calls back to Isaiah 5, where God describes planting a vineyard. He clears the stones, plants the best vines, builds a tower and a winepress. He expected good grapes and it produced worthless ones. The Hebrew word there means stinking or rotten, like the ones I spit out. Then God asks what more He could have done for His vineyard. That vineyard wasn't barren. It grew grapes. They just weren't the grapes He planted it for. That's exactly what John is confronting. They had some fruit. It wasn't good fruit. Is fruit the cause or the evidence? The evidence. You can't staple good fruit onto a dead tree. Fruit grows out of whatever the root is drawing from. So John isn't saying produce better behavior and you'll be fine. He's saying the fruit reveals what's happening at the root. The fruit doesn't make the tree. It shows you what the tree is. Those grapes on my road tasted bad because nobody had ever tended those plants. They're wild, doing their own thing. The ones I wanted to save the seeds from came from vines that had been cultivated with intention. A lot of us have fruit. We go to church, we listen to podcasts, we know what the Bible says, we might even post the verse. And what's coming out of us is still gross fruit. That crowd had activity. Walking into the desert and getting in that river took real effort. John looked at all of it and said it doesn't count. Show me something that weighs as much as what you say happened to you.

]]> 644 Does God Know What You Never Say Out Loud? (Luke 3:3-16) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Most of us carry questions we've never said out loud. Does God see me in this. Did I hear Him wrong. Is something different about me? In Luke 3, the people were wondering in their hearts about John, and Luke tells us John answered them. Nobody asked anything out loud. Today we're talking about what prophecy actually is, how to tell a real word from a counterfeit, and what it means that God answers what we never say. Links We visit Luke's house in Rome on our Bible Study Live trip. Bible Study Live is a small-group Bible study trip with Rachael Groll. Study Scripture where it happened in Rome, or slow down for a contemplative Bible study retreat in Maui. Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What does prophecy actually mean? Most of us hear prophecy and think of foretelling. That's a piece of it, but a small one. In Scripture, most prophecy is reminding people of what God has already said. The Hebrew word is navi, meaning spokesman. We see it in Exodus 7, where God tells Moses that Aaron will be his prophet, meaning Aaron will say out loud what Moses gives him. The Greek word is prophetes, from pro, meaning forth or on behalf of, and phemi, to speak. A prophet speaks forth words that aren't his own. I say all the time that God's voice will never contradict God's word. The inverse is also true. Often God's word is God's voice. When the Holy Spirit brings a verse to mind, that's the same thing, and sometimes He asks you to share it. What did prophets actually do? They called people back to the covenant. Most Old Testament prophets weren't announcing new information. They reminded Israel of what God said at Sinai and showed them where they had drifted. They told the truth to powerful people. Nathan confronted David. Elijah confronted Ahab. John confronts Herod Antipas over his marriage, which is what lands him in prison. I'll be honest about that part. This gift is not always well received. I've lost relationships over it, lost business deals, left organizations because there was hidden sin I didn't want to be part of. I'm not talking about being hurtful. I mean speaking the truth in love. But people don't want to be confronted with their own sin, and neither do systems. And sometimes prophets acted out their message. Isaiah walked barefoot. Jeremiah wore a yoke. Ezekiel laid on his side for months. Hosea's whole marriage became the sermon. That's the callback to John. The camel hair and the wilderness weren't details that happened because he was an oddball. They were the message. How do you know if a word is really from God? The enemy has a counterfeit for everything. People go to tarot readings and psychics because it's often accurate. That knowledge comes from demons, and demons often know true things. So the test is not accuracy. A prophet from God will lead you to God. Even if a word is true, if it leads you somewhere other than God, it's a false prophet. Faithfulness to God is the standard. Earlier this year there was a news cycle about a charismatic preacher data farming on Facebook to gather information for his prophetic words. The words were true, because he lifted them off people's profiles. But they led people into pain and chaos, and God is not the author of chaos. He was accurate. Accuracy wasn't the standard. What do I do if I think I've received a word? Ask the Lord what to do with it. That's the step I hold as most sacred. If He gives you a word to share and you don't, you miss what He had for you and the person He was reaching misses it too. But if the word was insight for you to pray, or He wanted you to hold it until the right time, and you blurt it out, you can do real damage. All of us are capable of this. It's a spiritual gift, but every believer has the Spirit of God in them. Until the Lord tells me I can share, I don't. Sometimes it takes the confirmation of another believer. Sometimes it takes separate time in prayer. Why is John more than a prophet? Jesus says in Luke 7 that among those born of women there is no one greater than John. Every prophet before him pointed to a day that was coming. John pointed at a person standing in front of him. He's the only one who got to say, behold, the Lamb of God is here. That doesn't mean prophecy ended. In Acts, Peter says the Spirit was poured out so sons and daughters will prophesy. Anna called out who Jesus was. Philip had four daughters who prophesied. Paul says believers should desire this gift because it edifies. After Jesus, the shape changes. It becomes the gift that builds up the church. What is John doing with Isaiah? Exactly what we described. Reminding people of what God already said. He quotes Isaiah 40, which opens a section written to comfort people in exile. It begins with comfort, O comfort my people, words first given to a defeated nation far from home, with the promise that God Himself was coming to lead them back. In the ancient world, when a king announced a visit, crews went ahead to prepare the road. They filled washed-out ditches, cut back brush, cleared rocks, straightened switchbacks. A royal visit required a royal highway. Everyone listening understood that image. But this road isn't made of dirt. Verse three already told us what the construction work is: a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. Repentance is the road work. The highway runs straight through their hearts. The King is coming, and not to the vicinity. Through your heart. Every ravine filled means the low places lifted, which meant something to people buried under Roman oppression. Every mountain brought low means pride, self-sufficiency, and family pedigree get leveled. The crooked made straight uses the Greek word skolios, where we get scoliosis. It means bent or twisted. Then the tax collectors ask what they should do. So do the soldiers. And John gives them practical answers. One line I don't want us to miss: all flesh will see the salvation of God. Matthew and Mark quote Isaiah here too, but they stop after the first line. Luke keeps going, because he's writing so people outside Israel, including you and me, would know this story is for them too. What does God know that you haven't said? Look at verse 15. The people were wondering in their hearts about John. And then John answered them all. Nobody said anything out loud. That's a callback to Simeon's prophecy in Luke 2, and it's a pattern you'll see all through this gospel. Jesus answers what nobody says out loud. John does it once here. Jesus does it continually. A lot of us carry questions we never say. Does God actually see me. Is this ever going to change. Did I hear Him wrong. Am I somehow different, and that's why He doesn't talk to me. God knows those thoughts. He knew them before you formed them, when they were still just feelings. There is not one thing you've thought or felt that God didn't know about. The things you're afraid to say out loud, He knows. The objections you think you shouldn't have, He knows. So be honest with Him. Tell Him how you feel. He already knows, and He wants to speak to the fear and the pain and the raw spot, so that He can heal it. That's part of making the rough way smooth. Timestamps 00:00 A woman at church, and a word she'd been trying to track down 01:25 Foretelling is the smallest piece of it 02:54 God's voice never contradicts God's word 04:17 Navi, and Aaron speaking for Moses 06:59 Reading Luke 3:3-16 10:48 Public word versus private word 12:40 Prophets called people back to the covenant 13:40 What telling the truth has cost me 17:26 When prophets acted out the message 19:51 Accuracy is not the standard 20:46 Why John is more than a prophet 24:05 John quoting Isaiah 40 26:48 Repentance is the road work 29:06 Why Luke quotes past where Matthew and Mark stop 30:37 They were wondering in their hearts 32:15 The questions we never say out loud 34:49 Prayer Frequently asked questions What does the word prophet mean?

What does prophecy actually mean?

Most of us hear prophecy and think of foretelling. That's a piece of it, but a small one. In Scripture, most prophecy is reminding people of what God has already said.

The Hebrew word is navi, meaning spokesman. We see it in Exodus 7, where God tells Moses that Aaron will be his prophet, meaning Aaron will say out loud what Moses gives him. The Greek word is prophetes, from pro, meaning forth or on behalf of, and phemi, to speak. A prophet speaks forth words that aren't his own.

What did prophets actually do?

They called people back to the covenant. Most Old Testament prophets weren't announcing new information. They reminded Israel of what God said at Sinai and showed them where they had drifted.

They told the truth to powerful people. Nathan confronted David. Elijah confronted Ahab. John confronts Herod Antipas over his marriage, which is what lands him in prison.

I'll be honest about that part. This gift is not always well received. I've lost relationships over it, lost business deals, left organizations because there was hidden sin I didn't want to be part of. I'm not talking about being hurtful.

If He gives you a word to share and you don't, you miss what He had for you and the person He was reaching misses it too. But if the word was insight for you to pray, or He wanted you to hold it until the right time, and you blurt it out, you can do real damage.

All of us are capable of this. It's a spiritual gift, but every believer has the Spirit of God in them. Until the Lord tells me I can share, I don't. Sometimes it takes the confirmation of another believer. Sometimes it takes separate time in prayer.

Why is John more than a prophet?

Jesus says in Luke 7 that among those born of women there is no one greater than John. Every prophet before him pointed to a day that was coming. John pointed at a person standing in front of him. He's the only one who got to say, behold, the Lamb of God is here.

That doesn't mean prophecy ended. In Acts, Peter says the Spirit was poured out so sons and daughters will prophesy. Anna called out who Jesus was. Philip had four daughters who prophesied. Paul says believers should desire this gift because it edifies. After Jesus, the shape changes. It becomes the gift that builds up the church.

What is John doing with Isaiah?

Exactly what we described. Reminding people of what God already said.

He quotes Isaiah 40, which opens a section written to comfort people in exile. It begins with comfort, O comfort my people, words first given to a defeated nation far from home, with the promise that God Himself was coming to lead them back.

In the ancient world, when a king announced a visit, crews went ahead to prepare the road. They filled washed-out ditches, cut back brush, cleared rocks, straightened switchbacks. A royal visit required a royal highway. Everyone listening understood that image.

But this road isn't made of dirt. Verse three already told us what the construction work is: a baptism of repentance for the forgiveness of sins. Repentance is the road work. The highway runs straight through their hearts. The King is coming, and not to the vicinity. Through your heart.

Every ravine filled means the low places lifted, which meant something to people buried under Roman oppression. Every mountain brought low means pride, self-sufficiency, and family pedigree get leveled. The crooked made straight uses the Greek word skolios, where we get scoliosis. It means bent or twisted.

Then the tax collectors ask what they should do. So do the soldiers. And John gives them practical answers.

One line I don't want us to miss: all flesh will see the salvation of God. Matthew and Mark quote Isaiah here too, but they stop after the first line. Luke keeps going, because he's writing so people outside Israel, including you and me, would know this story is for them too.

What does God know that you haven't said?

Look at verse 15. The people were wondering in their hearts about John. And then John answered them all.

Nobody said anything out loud. That's a callback to Simeon's prophecy in Luke 2, and it's a pattern you'll see all through this gospel. Jesus answers what nobody says out loud. John does it once here. Jesus does it continually.

A lot of us carry questions we never say. Does God actually see me. Is this ever going to change. Did I hear Him wrong. Am I somehow different, and that's why He doesn't talk to me.

God knows those thoughts. He knew them before you formed them, when they were still just feelings. There is not one thing you've thought or felt that God didn't know about. The things you're afraid to say out loud, He knows. The objections you think you shouldn't have, He knows.

So be honest with Him. Tell Him how you feel. He already knows, and He wants to speak to the fear and the pain and the raw spot, so that He can heal it.

That's part of making the rough way smooth.

Frequently asked questions

What does the word prophet mean?
The Hebrew is navi, meaning spokesman. The Greek is prophetes, from words meaning to speak forth on behalf of someone.

Is the gift of prophecy still for today?
Yes. In Acts, Peter says the Spirit was poured out so sons and daughters would prophesy, and Paul encourages believers to desire the gift.

]]> 551 Where Was God Faithful This Week? Saturday Daily Affirmations (Psalm 77:11) | Christian Affirmations Today we slow down and look back over the week with God. These affirmations draw on Psalm 77:11, choosing to remember what the Lord has done in both the big moments and the quiet ones. Saturday is a good day to slow down and look back over your week with God. Not to replay everything or overthink it, but to notice where He met you, where He carried you, and where His grace showed up. These Scripture-based Christian affirmations are a gentle way to reflect with honesty and gratitude before the new week begins. I'll say each affirmation, pause so you can repeat it after me, and then read the Bible verse it comes from. Saturday affirmations and Scripture I thank God for walking with me through this week.

]]> 664 Did God See What Was Done to You? Listener Questions | Daily Devotional & Bible Study God Saw What Was Done to You: Listener Questions Today is one of our Q&A episodes, where we take a pause from the Bible study so you have time to catch up and I can work through questions that have come in. Two questions in this one. The first asks why people with religious roles so often fail to live obediently, which is a pattern running straight through Scripture. The second is harder and I want to handle it gently: why did God protect Cain after what he did, and why do some people lose their freedom because of somebody else's choices?

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Does being close to religion mean you're obedient to God? Sarah put it in a phrase I keep thinking about: religious proximity does not equal religious obedience. That's been a theme in Scripture from the very beginning. Adam and Eve were in perfect communion with God. They walked with Him daily. And still, because God gave us free will, proximity didn't produce obedience. There isn't a day that goes by without someone in a religious role falling into sin. We hear about it constantly. You may have experienced church hurt yourself at the hands of a leader or a pastor. That's the reality of the fall, and it's the story written all through the pages of Scripture. We've been watching it in Luke. The Roman political system had corrupted the religious leadership of the day, which is the whole backdrop behind the Pharisees, the Sadducees, and the religious establishment Jesus keeps encountering. Having a religious role never meant being obedient to God. What it comes down to is the difference between going to church and knowing Jesus. Some people go to church and then go home and harm their families the rest of the week. Some go hoping it absolves them of what they're doing elsewhere. A great deal of harm has been done in the name of religion. Proximity is not an indication of where the heart is. And God's remedy for that, over and over in Scripture, is sending Jesus. We can know about Jesus without actually knowing Him, and those are two different things. My hope for this show, and for the books and the trips and everything else we do, is that you would know Him for yourself. That doesn't mean you'll always get it right. We aren't perfect, which is exactly why we need Him. But being disobedient, feeling the conviction of the Holy Spirit, confessing, and being restored to right relationship through Jesus is the whole rhythm of the Christian life. Why did God protect Cain? This question came in from someone working through the Genesis series, and it's one a lot of people carry, usually in different forms. At the heart of it is often a wound. If you've ever been hurt by somebody else's choices, you know the ache in it. Why does the person who caused the harm seem to get mercy while the person who was hurt has no say at all? Let's look at what actually happens in Genesis 4. Cain kills his brother in a field. Then God comes to him and says, what have you done, your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground. Before God says one word about punishment, He makes it clear that He heard Abel. Abel never got a voice in that field. God gave him one. The first murder victim in Scripture is not forgotten. Then comes the sentence, and it has layers. Cain is driven from the land, the ground won't produce for him, and he becomes a restless wanderer. He panics and says whoever finds him will kill him. And God puts a mark on him so that no one will. Here's the detail worth knowing. The Hebrew word for mark is ot, which means sign. It's the same word used for the rainbow after the flood and for the blood on the doorposts at Passover. It isn't a brand of shame. It's a sign of protection. Why would God protect him? Two things are happening. In the ancient world there were no courts and no police. Justice was handled by family members, and it usually meant revenge. And revenge did not stop at one life. Entire families were wiped out in the name of it. You can watch it start just a few verses later with Lamech, Cain's descendant, who brags about killing a man for wounding him and says if Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven. That's what vengeance does when it's left in human hands. The seed of it grows. So God's protection of Cain puts a limit on the violence before it consumes the whole human family. And look what Jesus does with that number later. He takes Lamech's seventy-seven and turns it into how many times we forgive. The way of Jesus is forgiveness. There's still justice, but it belongs to God rather than to us. Protecting Cain is not the same as excusing Cain. He lived with real consequences the rest of his life. The ground didn't work for him, and at that time that was survival. But God also didn't give up on him. Remember, we're not reading these stories to study the people. We're reading them to see the character and nature of God. Here we see mercy and justice together. That's hard to hold at once, especially when you're the one who was hurt. Why do some people lose their freedom because of someone else's choices? God doesn't hand out free will to some and withhold it from others. Every person bears God's image and every person has a will. But we live in a broken world where our choices land on other people. Freedom means the choice to love, and it also means the choice to harm. When someone abuses or wounds or betrays another person, the one who was hurt didn't choose that. Their safety was taken. Their innocence was taken. God calls that evil. I struggled with this myself for a long time. Years ago in seminary I was working through some childhood trauma with my spiritual director. In my mind, I got saved at fifteen, so I had somehow concluded that anything that happened before that was my own fault for being sinful, or that God hadn't shown up in my life yet. What my spiritual director said to me then is what I've said to many of you since: the evil that was done to me grieved God too. He grieves what is done to us. That's part of why He sent His Son. There's a theological piece here worth naming. We live in what's called the already and the not yet. Jesus has already come, lived a sinless life, completed the work on the cross, defeated death, ascended, and sent the Holy Spirit. But this world is not yet fully redeemed. Until He returns, it isn't finished. So we live in a broken place, and those things break God's heart. Where is God in what happened? Scripture keeps showing us a God who moves toward the one who was harmed. Think of Hagar. She was used and mistreated and left alone in the desert, and she named God El Roi, the God who sees me. One of my favorite verses to share with people who are hurting is Psalm 34:18, that the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. He knows you will experience heartbreak. This is not the world He designed, and it's why He sent Jesus to redeem and restore it. We're just not there yet. He also promises justice. Romans 12 tells us vengeance belongs to the Lord, which means nothing done in the dark is overlooked. And then there's Hebrews 12, which says the blood of Jesus speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. Abel's blood cried out for justice. The blood of Jesus speaks healing and forgiveness and restoration. Jesus was the innocent one harmed by other people's choices, and He allowed it so that nothing done to you would be the end of your story. If you're carrying something that was done to you, I want you to know that God saw it. He grieves it. And He has not stopped working toward your healing.

We've been watching it in Luke. The Roman political system had corrupted the religious leadership of the day, which is the whole backdrop behind the Pharisees, the Sadducees, and the religious establishment Jesus keeps encountering. Having a religious role never meant being obedient to God.

What it comes down to is the difference between going to church and knowing Jesus. Some people go to church and then go home and harm their families the rest of the week. Some go hoping it absolves them of what they're doing elsewhere. A great deal of harm has been done in the name of religion. Proximity is not an indication of where the heart is.

And God's remedy for that, over and over in Scripture, is sending Jesus. We can know about Jesus without actually knowing Him, and those are two different things.

My hope for this show, and for the books and the trips and everything else we do, is that you would know Him for yourself. That doesn't mean you'll always get it right. We aren't perfect, which is exactly why we need Him. But being disobedient, feeling the conviction of the Holy Spirit, confessing, and being restored to right relationship through Jesus is the whole rhythm of the Christian life.

Why did God protect Cain?

This question came in from someone working through the Genesis series, and it's one a lot of people carry, usually in different forms. At the heart of it is often a wound. If you've ever been hurt by somebody else's choices, you know the ache in it. Why does the person who caused the harm seem to get mercy while the person who was hurt has no say at all?

Let's look at what actually happens in Genesis 4.

Cain kills his brother in a field. Then God comes to him and says, what have you done, your brother's blood cries out to me from the ground. Before God says one word about punishment, He makes it clear that He heard Abel. Abel never got a voice in that field. God gave him one. The first murder victim in Scripture is not forgotten.

Then comes the sentence, and it has layers. Cain is driven from the land, the ground won't produce for him, and he becomes a restless wanderer. He panics and says whoever finds him will kill him. And God puts a mark on him so that no one will.

Here's the detail worth knowing. The Hebrew word for mark is ot, which means sign. It's the same word used for the rainbow after the flood and for the blood on the doorposts at Passover. It isn't a brand of shame. It's a sign of protection.

Why would God protect him?

Two things are happening.

In the ancient world there were no courts and no police. Justice was handled by family members, and it usually meant revenge. And revenge did not stop at one life. Entire families were wiped out in the name of it. You can watch it start just a few verses later with Lamech, Cain's descendant, who brags about killing a man for wounding him and says if Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven. That's what vengeance does when it's left in human hands. The seed of it grows.

So God's protection of Cain puts a limit on the violence before it consumes the whole human family.

And look what Jesus does with that number later. He takes Lamech's seventy-seven and turns it into how many times we forgive. The way of Jesus is forgiveness. There's still justice, but it belongs to God rather than to us.

Protecting Cain is not the same as excusing Cain. He lived with real consequences the rest of his life. The ground didn't work for him, and at that time that was survival. But God also didn't give up on him.

Remember, we're not reading these stories to study the people. We're reading them to see the character and nature of God. Here we see mercy and justice together. That's hard to hold at once, especially when you're the one who was hurt.

Why do some people lose their freedom because of someone else's choices?

God doesn't hand out free will to some and withhold it from others. Every person bears God's image and every person has a will. But we live in a broken world where our choices land on other people. Freedom means the choice to love, and it also means the choice to harm. When someone abuses or wounds or betrays another person, the one who was hurt didn't choose that. Their safety was taken. Their innocence was taken. God calls that evil.

I struggled with this myself for a long time. Years ago in seminary I was working through some childhood trauma with my spiritual director. In my mind, I got saved at fifteen, so I had somehow concluded that anything that happened before that was my own fault for being sinful, or that God hadn't shown up in my life yet.

What my spiritual director said to me then is what I've said to many of you since: the evil that was done to me grieved God too.

He grieves what is done to us. That's part of why He sent His Son.

There's a theological piece here worth naming. We live in what's called the already and the not yet. Jesus has already come, lived a sinless life, completed the work on the cross, defeated death, ascended, and sent the Holy Spirit. But this world is not yet fully redeemed. Until He returns, it isn't finished. So we live in a broken place, and those things break God's heart.

Where is God in what happened?

Scripture keeps showing us a God who moves toward the one who was harmed.

Think of Hagar. She was used and mistreated and left alone in the desert, and she named God El Roi, the God who sees me.

One of my favorite verses to share with people who are hurting is Psalm 34:18, that the Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. He knows you will experience heartbreak. This is not the world He designed, and it's why He sent Jesus to redeem and restore it. We're just not there yet.

He also promises justice. Romans 12 tells us vengeance belongs to the Lord, which means nothing done in the dark is overlooked.

And then there's Hebrews 12, which says the blood of Jesus speaks a better word than the blood of Abel. Abel's blood cried out for justice. The blood of Jesus speaks healing and forgiveness and restoration. Jesus was the innocent one harmed by other people's choices, and He allowed it so that nothing done to you would be the end of your story.

If you're carrying something that was done to you, I want you to know that God saw it. He grieves it. And He has not stopped working toward your healing.

]]> 683 Why Does God Separate People Before He Uses Them? (Luke 3:2) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study John the Baptist could have served in the temple. He was the son of a priest, and by birthright that door was open to him. Instead he lived in the desert, and that's where the word of God found him. Today we slow down on one phrase in verse two and ask what the wilderness actually was, why John chose it over the temple, and why God so often separates people before He uses them.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why was John in the wilderness? Luke told us back in chapter one, verse eighty, that the child grew and became strong in spirit, and he lived in the deserts until the day of his public appearance to Israel. So the wilderness is essentially where John grew up. The practical reason may be simple. Zechariah and Elizabeth were both advanced in years when he was born, so it's reasonable to think they died while he was still young. Scripture doesn't say, but something moved him out of the village and into the desert early. There's also the calling. Gabriel said he would drink no wine or liquor and would be filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb, which sounds a great deal like the Nazirite vow from Numbers 6. Normally a person chose that vow. John was set apart from conception, the way Samson and Samuel were. That word anointing means set apart. Someone with that kind of calling was never going to live an ordinary village life. Mark fills in the picture. John was clothed with camel's hair, wore a leather belt around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey. Locusts were permitted food under the law, so he was eating what God provided in the desert. The clothing is not an accident either. Elijah is described in 2 Kings as a hairy man with a leather belt around his waist, and Gabriel said John would come in the spirit and power of Elijah. John was dressing the part. He didn't have to. It was a physical way of showing people who he was and what he had come to do. Why does it matter that he chose this? Because he had another option. John was the son of Zechariah, a priest. By birth he had the right to serve in the temple. He could have spent those years in the temple courts waiting for Jesus to begin His ministry, and it would have been far more comfortable. The temple was the center of Israel's worship, the place where God's presence dwelt with His people, the most sacred address in the entire nation. John went the opposite direction. What was that wilderness actually like? When we hear desert we picture sand dunes. This was not that. This was rocky hills, deep ravines, scrub brush, and almost no water. The area sits in the shadow of the mountains of Judea, so storms drop their rain on the Jerusalem side and very little makes it over. Jericho gets only a few inches a year. In spring a thin grass comes up and shepherds bring flocks through, but the rest of the year it is dry and very hot, especially as you drop toward the Dead Sea, which sits about 1,400 feet below sea level, the lowest place on dry land anywhere on earth. The Hebrew word for this region is midbar, and it doesn't mean dead. It means uncultivated. Open country where you might drive flocks at certain times of year, but land nobody could farm and nobody owned. This is the land David knew. He shepherded here as a boy and hid here from Saul. When he wrote in Psalm 63 about seeking God in a dry and weary land where there is no water, he wasn't only being poetic. He was describing what he could see. How did people at that time think about the wilderness? They held two feelings about it at once. First, it was dangerous, physically and spiritually. No water, extreme heat, wild animals, even rumors of lions, and bandits. The road from Jerusalem down to Jericho ran through here, which is the road in the story of the Good Samaritan. People understood that story because they knew that road. Beyond the physical, they believed evil was out there. On the Day of Atonement they drove a goat carrying the sins of Israel out into the wilderness, which we read in Leviticus. Isaiah 34 describes ruined desert places haunted by wild creatures. Jesus Himself later says an unclean spirit passes through waterless places. Keep that in mind, because in Luke 4 Jesus goes into this same wilderness for forty days. Second, and at the same time, it was holy ground. Many would have remembered the wilderness as the place where God courted Israel. In Jeremiah 2, God says He remembers the devotion of her youth, the love of her betrothals, her following after Him in the wilderness. It was almost their honeymoon, the time before they had anything, when they simply followed Him. This is where Israel became a people. They came out of Egypt and spent forty years in the desert. They received the law at Sinai. They ate manna. They learned to depend on God for water. This was the place where they had nothing but Him. In Hosea 2, God says He will allure her and bring her into the wilderness and speak kindly to her. When God wanted to win back the hearts of His people, He brought them here. Why baptize in the Jordan? There's one exception to all that barrenness. The Jordan River valley runs through it like a green ribbon, thick with brush and trees. Scripture calls it the thickets of the Jordan, dense enough that wild animals lived there. So picture John standing at the meeting point of two worlds. Behind him, miles of empty rock and heat. In front of him, a muddy winding river with green growing along both sides. In the middle of all that nothing, he is preaching about life and water. They could see that. We can't, but they could. Practically, he needed water, and the Jordan was the travel route, so the crowds were already there. But the river also carried history. This is where Israel crossed into the promised land. So when people walked out to be baptized, they were stepping into the same water their ancestors crossed in Joshua 3. It was like a national do-over, a chance to start over. And notice what the trip itself required. To be baptized by John you had to leave Jerusalem, walk away from the temple courts, and travel out toward the desert. That journey was part of the message. The system had grown so corrupt that the high priesthood was political and controlled by one family. John's location was essentially saying, come out here, we're going to start over. Was this politically dangerous? Yes. Josephus, the Jewish historian writing in that same era, describes several men who claimed to be deliverers, gathering followers out in the wilderness near the Jordan and promising signs of freedom. Rome crushed every one of them. In Acts 21 a Roman officer asks Paul whether he's the Egyptian who led four thousand men into the wilderness. So when crowds started streaming out of Jerusalem to hear a man in camel's hair eating locusts, it looked like the start of something. That's why the religious leaders sent a delegation to ask who he thought he was, and it's part of why Herod Antipas eventually arrests him. What does this mean for us? John could have been in the temple. But the word of God didn't come to the temple. It came to a man in the desert who was ready to prepare the way. And here's the part I keep sitting with. John was out there a long time before any of this happened. Alone. That's a pattern. Moses met God at the burning bush after tending someone else's sheep for forty years. Elijah heard the still small voice after running for his life, in a cave. David wrote some of his best psalms while hiding. Years ago at a women's retreat, they had us write a letter to ourselves from God. What came out was this: in this next season, you're going to have to separate to elevate. At the time I thought it just sounded like a sermon title. Then the Lord began pulling me away from relationships that had been fine in the season before, out of the orphan care ministry and the global missions role I loved, into heavy research for books and Bible studies and eventually into podcasting full time. I had to be separated before that season started, and it felt lonely. When we're separated, we tend to think those seasons are empty and God isn't there. But the wilderness is often where He forms the people He's about to use, because there is nothing out there competing for your attention. It's just you and Him. John spent decades in that silence before he said a word publicly. When he finally spoke, the whole nation came out to listen. If you're in a separated season, I know it's lonely. Let it be the season that drives you to your knees and teaches you to recognize His voice, so that when the thing He's preparing you for arrives, you come to it having already spent time alone with Him.

Normally a person chose that vow. John was set apart from conception, the way Samson and Samuel were. That word anointing means set apart. Someone with that kind of calling was never going to live an ordinary village life. Mark fills in the picture. John was clothed with camel's hair, wore a leather belt around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey. Locusts were permitted food under the law, so he was eating what God provided in the desert. The clothing is not an accident either. Elijah is described in 2 Kings as a hairy man with a leather belt around his waist, and Gabriel said John would come in the spirit and power of Elijah. John was dressing the part. He didn't have to. It was a physical way of showing people who he was and what he had come to do. Why does it matter that he chose this? Because he had another option. John was the son of Zechariah, a priest. By birth he had the right to serve in the temple. He could have spent those years in the temple courts waiting for Jesus to begin His ministry, and it would have been far more comfortable. The temple was the center of Israel's worship, the place where God's presence dwelt with His people, the most sacred address in the entire nation. John went the opposite direction. What was that wilderness actually like? When we hear desert we picture sand dunes. This was not that. This was rocky hills, deep ravines, scrub brush, and almost no water. The area sits in the shadow of the mountains of Judea, so storms drop their rain on the Jerusalem side and very little makes it over. Jericho gets only a few inches a year. In spring a thin grass comes up and shepherds bring flocks through, but the rest of the year it is dry and very hot, especially as you drop toward the Dead Sea, which sits about 1,400 feet below sea level, the lowest place on dry land anywhere on earth. The Hebrew word for this region is midbar, and it doesn't mean dead. It means uncultivated. Open country where you might drive flocks at certain times of year, but land nobody could farm and nobody owned. This is the land David knew. He shepherded here as a boy and hid here from Saul. When he wrote in Psalm 63 about seeking God in a dry and weary land where there is no water, he wasn't only being poetic. He was describing what he could see. How did people at that time think about the wilderness? They held two feelings about it at once. First, it was dangerous, physically and spiritually. No water, extreme heat, wild animals, even rumors of lions, and bandits. The road from Jerusalem down to Jericho ran through here, which is the road in the story of the Good Samaritan. People understood that story because they knew that road. Beyond the physical, they believed evil was out there. On the Day of Atonement they drove a goat carrying the sins of Israel out into the wilderness, which we read in Leviticus. Isaiah 34 describes ruined desert places haunted by wild creatures. Jesus Himself later says an unclean spirit passes through waterless places. Keep that in mind, because in Luke 4 Jesus goes into this same wilderness for forty days. Second, and at the same time, it was holy ground. Many would have remembered the wilderness as the place where God courted Israel. In Jeremiah 2, God says He remembers the devotion of her youth, the love of her betrothals, her following after Him in the wilderness. It was almost their honeymoon, the time before they had anything, when they simply followed Him. This is where Israel became a people. They came out of Egypt and spent forty years in the desert. They received the law at Sinai. They ate manna. They learned to depend on God for water. This was the place where they had nothing but Him. In Hosea 2, God says He will allure her and bring her into the wilderness and speak kindly to her. When God wanted to win back the hearts of His people, He brought them here. Why baptize in the Jordan? There's one exception to all that barrenness. The Jordan River valley runs through it like a green ribbon, thick with brush and trees. Scripture calls it the thickets of the Jordan, dense enough that wild animals lived there. So picture John standing at the meeting point of two worlds. Behind him, miles of empty rock and heat. In front of him, a muddy winding river with green growing along both sides. In the middle of all that nothing, he is preaching about life and water. They could see that. We can't, but they could. Practically, he needed water, and the Jordan was the travel route, so the crowds were already there. But the river also carried history. This is where Israel crossed into the promised land. So when people walked out to be baptized, they were stepping into the same water their ancestors crossed in Joshua 3. It was like a national do-over, a chance to start over. And notice what the trip itself required. To be baptized by John you had to leave Jerusalem, walk away from the temple courts, and travel out toward the desert. That journey was part of the message. The system had grown so corrupt that the high priesthood was political and controlled by one family. John's location was essentially saying, come out here, we're going to start over. Was this politically dangerous? Yes. Josephus, the Jewish historian writing in that same era, describes several men who claimed to be deliverers, gathering followers out in the wilderness near the Jordan and promising signs of freedom. Rome crushed every one of them. In Acts 21 a Roman officer asks Paul whether he's the Egyptian who led four thousand men into the wilderness. So when crowds started streaming out of Jerusalem to hear a man in camel's hair eating locusts, it looked like the start of something. That's why the religious leaders sent a delegation to ask who he thought he was, and it's part of why Herod Antipas eventually arrests him. What does this mean for us? John could have been in the temple. But the word of God didn't come to the temple. It came to a man in the desert who was ready to prepare the way. And here's the part I keep sitting with. John was out there a long time before any of this happened. Alone. That's a pattern. Moses met God at the burning bush after tending someone else's sheep for forty years. Elijah heard the still small voice after running for his life, in a cave. David wrote some of his best psalms while hiding. Years ago at a women's retreat, they had us write a letter to ourselves from God. What came out was this: in this next season, you're going to have to separate to elevate. At the time I thought it just sounded like a sermon title. Then the Lord began pulling me away from relationships that had been fine in the season before, out of the orphan care ministry and the global missions role I loved, into heavy research for books and Bible studies and eventually into podcasting full time. I had to be separated before that season started, and it felt lonely. When we're separated, we tend to think those seasons are empty and God isn't there. But the wilderness is often where He forms the people He's about to use, because there is nothing out there competing for your attention. It's just you and Him. John spent decades in that silence before he said a word publicly. When he finally spoke, the whole nation came out to listen. If you're in a separated season, I know it's lonely. Let it be the season that drives you to your knees and teaches you to recognize His voice, so that when the thing He's preparing you for arrives, you come to it having already spent time alone with Him.

Why was John in the wilderness?

Luke told us back in chapter one, verse eighty, that the child grew and became strong in spirit, and he lived in the deserts until the day of his public appearance to Israel. So the wilderness is essentially where John grew up.

The practical reason may be simple. Zechariah and Elizabeth were both advanced in years when he was born, so it's reasonable to think they died while he was still young. Scripture doesn't say, but something moved him out of the village and into the desert early.

There's also the calling. Gabriel said he would drink no wine or liquor and would be filled with the Holy Spirit from his mother's womb, which sounds a great deal like the Nazirite vow from Numbers 6. Normally a person chose that vow. John was set apart from conception, the way Samson and Samuel were. That word anointing means set apart. Someone with that kind of calling was never going to live an ordinary village life.

Mark fills in the picture. John was clothed with camel's hair, wore a leather belt around his waist, and ate locusts and wild honey. Locusts were permitted food under the law, so he was eating what God provided in the desert. The clothing is not an accident either. Elijah is described in 2 Kings as a hairy man with a leather belt around his waist, and Gabriel said John would come in the spirit and power of Elijah. John was dressing the part. He didn't have to. It was a physical way of showing people who he was and what he had come to do.

Why does it matter that he chose this?

Because he had another option.

John was the son of Zechariah, a priest. By birth he had the right to serve in the temple. He could have spent those years in the temple courts waiting for Jesus to begin His ministry, and it would have been far more comfortable. The temple was the center of Israel's worship, the place where God's presence dwelt with His people, the most sacred address in the entire nation.

John went the opposite direction.

What was that wilderness actually like?

When we hear desert we picture sand dunes. This was not that. This was rocky hills, deep ravines, scrub brush, and almost no water.

The area sits in the shadow of the mountains of Judea, so storms drop their rain on the Jerusalem side and very little makes it over. Jericho gets only a few inches a year. In spring a thin grass comes up and shepherds bring flocks through, but the rest of the year it is dry and very hot, especially as you drop toward the Dead Sea, which sits about 1,400 feet below sea level, the lowest place on dry land anywhere on earth.

The Hebrew word for this region is midbar, and it doesn't mean dead. It means uncultivated. Open country where you might drive flocks at certain times of year, but land nobody could farm and nobody owned.

This is the land David knew. He shepherded here as a boy and hid here from Saul. When he wrote in Psalm 63 about seeking God in a dry and weary land where there is no water, he wasn't only being poetic. He was describing what he could see.

How did people at that time think about the wilderness?

They held two feelings about it at once.

First, it was dangerous, physically and spiritually. No water, extreme heat, wild animals, even rumors of lions, and bandits. The road from Jerusalem down to Jericho ran through here, which is the road in the story of the Good Samaritan. People understood that story because they knew that road.

Isaiah 34 describes ruined desert places haunted by wild creatures. Jesus Himself later says an unclean spirit passes through waterless places. Keep that in mind, because in Luke 4 Jesus goes into this same wilderness for forty days.

Second, and at the same time, it was holy ground. Many would have remembered the wilderness as the place where God courted Israel. In Jeremiah 2, God says He remembers the devotion of her youth, the love of her betrothals, her following after Him in the wilderness. It was almost their honeymoon, the time before they had anything, when they simply followed Him.

This was the place where they had nothing but Him. In Hosea 2, God says He will allure her and bring her into the wilderness and speak kindly to her. When God wanted to win back the hearts of His people, He brought them here.

Why baptize in the Jordan?

There's one exception to all that barrenness. The Jordan River valley runs through it like a green ribbon, thick with brush and trees. Scripture calls it the thickets of the Jordan, dense enough that wild animals lived there.

An emperor, a governor, three regional rulers, two high priests. Every one of them had access, money, and a platform. And the word of God went past all of them to a man in the wilderness. Today we slow down and work through who these people actually were, why Luke includes them, and what it means that God chose the one person on that page nobody would have picked.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why does Luke open with a list of names? For years I skipped this part. It felt like Roman background I didn't need. But when we slow down to actually study the word, we find that everything is there on purpose. Luke wrote this, but these words are God breathed, which means the Holy Spirit decided what went in and what stayed out. Luke is doing two things. First, he's dating the story like a historian. That's how the ancient world marked time, by naming who held power. He's writing to Gentiles, so he's saying these were real rulers and this really happened, and you can go check it. Second, he's setting up a contrast that lands in verse two. Who was Tiberius Caesar? The emperor of Rome, and the stepson of Caesar Augustus, the one we talked about in the Christmas story. Augustus adopted him as his heir. That detail tells us how much time has passed. Augustus ruled from 27 BC to AD 14. Tiberius ruled from AD 14 to 37, so his fifteenth year puts us around AD 28 or 29, which is when John started preaching. It lines up with verse 23, where Jesus is about thirty. Last we saw Him, He was twelve in the temple. One thing worth knowing: after Julius Caesar, Caesar stopped being a family name and became a title, basically another word for emperor. Every Roman ruler after him took it, which is part of why this gets confusing. Tiberius was not a popular leader. He was suspicious of people and harsh with anyone he saw as a threat, and he eventually withdrew from Rome entirely to the island of Capri while the empire mostly ran without him. Who was Pontius Pilate? The Roman governor of Judea from about AD 26 to 36. His official title was prefect, and we know that for certain because in 1961 archaeologists digging in Caesarea found a stone slab with his name and title carved into it. It's called the Pilate Stone. Jewish writers from that time describe him as stubborn and cruel. He brought Roman military standards into Jerusalem knowing it would offend Jewish law. He took money from the temple treasury to build an aqueduct. Luke 13 mentions Galileans he had killed while they were offering sacrifices. He's eventually the man who hands Jesus over to be crucified. Which Herod is this one? This is where a lot of us get lost, so let's slow down. The Herod in the Christmas story was Herod the Great, and he is not the same Herod you meet later. He died around 4 BC. He had about ten wives and a lot of children, and he was so paranoid about losing his throne that he killed three of his own sons. A Roman writer said it was safer to be Herod's pig than his son. When he died, Rome split his kingdom three ways among his surviving sons. None of them became king. The word tetrarch means ruler of a fourth. A family that once held all the power was now fractured into pieces. Archelaus got the largest share, including Judea. He was brutal, and after about ten years both the Jews and the Samaritans, who agreed on almost nothing, complained to Rome and Augustus removed him. That's how Judea ended up under direct Roman governors like Pilate. He shows up in the Christmas story too. When Joseph came back from Egypt and heard Archelaus was ruling Judea, he was afraid to go there and settled in Nazareth instead, which we read in Matthew 2. Philip ruled the northeastern territories and built Caesarea Philippi, the city where Peter later confessed that Jesus was the Christ. Of all the Herods, he had the best reputation. Herod Antipas is the one named here. He ruled Galilee, where Jesus grew up and did most of His ministry. He's the one who arrests John the Baptist and eventually has him beheaded. Jesus calls him that fox in Luke 13, and Pilate sends Jesus to him during the trial. There's a fourth son we hear little about, usually called Herod II. He never ruled anything, but he was the first husband of Herodias. Antipas took her from him, and that's the marriage John the Baptist called out publicly. That is eventually what costs John his freedom and his life. Later there's Herod Agrippa, grandson of Herod the Great, who kills the apostle James in Acts 12. This family line runs from the birth of Jesus all the way through Acts. Who was Lysanias? An obscure ruler, not related to the Herods at all, who ruled a small region called Abilene near Damascus. Some people have questioned why Luke bothers to include him. He's there for the same reason as everyone else. Luke is sketching the political map from the top down. The emperor, the governor of Judea, the Herod sons in Galilee and the northeast, and then one more regional ruler further north. Luke is a details guy, and he's saying in exact terms who was in charge of every piece of this world, and what year it was, so you can go verify it. Why are there two high priests? Israel was only supposed to have one, and he was supposed to serve for life. Here we have two. Annas served as high priest from about AD 6 to 15, and then Rome removed him. But Rome could take away the office without taking away the power. Five of his sons served as high priest at different times, and so did his son-in-law Caiaphas, who holds the title during the ministry of Jesus. When Jesus was arrested, they brought Him to Annas first, which we saw back in John 18. Acts 4 still calls Annas the high priest. Caiaphas held the office. Annas was calling the shots. Luke names both because both were running things, and it shows how far the priesthood had fallen. The holiest office in Israel had become a political appointment by Rome. Even the religious establishment was under Roman control. Why does Luke write like an Old Testament prophet? Think about how Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Hosea open their books. They date the writing by naming the kings in power, and then comes the line: the word of the Lord came to them. That's exactly the formula here. Luke names the rulers, and then verse two says the word of God came to John, the son of Zechariah, in the wilderness. We have just come out of four hundred years with no prophet in Israel. Luke picks up the old formula because the prophet is back. It isn't silent anymore. And what did the Old Testament prophets do? They foretold Jesus. That's exactly what John is here to do. Who did God actually speak to? Look at that list again. Every powerful person in it had access. They had money. They had influence. They had platform. None of them got the word from the Lord. Instead the word came to a man in the wilderness, a miracle baby whose parents had waited their whole lives for him, a man who ate locusts and honey and dressed in fur and struck people as an oddball. That gives me so much comfort. There are seasons in my own life where I feel like I'm out in the wilderness and I'm the oddball, and the Lord still speaks. I would much rather be a person in the wilderness in communication with God than somebody in power who isn't. So the next time you're tempted to think God won't use you because you're just some weirdo in the wilderness, remember that is exactly who He uses. He always has.

But when we slow down to actually study the word, we find that everything is there on purpose. Luke wrote this, but these words are God breathed, which means the Holy Spirit decided what went in and what stayed out. Luke is doing two things. First, he's dating the story like a historian. That's how the ancient world marked time, by naming who held power. He's writing to Gentiles, so he's saying these were real rulers and this really happened, and you can go check it.

Why does Luke open with a list of names?

For years I skipped this part. It felt like Roman background I didn't need. But when we slow down to actually study the word, we find that everything is there on purpose. Luke wrote this, but these words are God breathed, which means the Holy Spirit decided what went in and what stayed out.

Luke is doing two things. First, he's dating the story like a historian. That's how the ancient world marked time, by naming who held power. He's writing to Gentiles, so he's saying these were real rulers and this really happened, and you can go check it.

Second, he's setting up a contrast that lands in verse two.

Who was Tiberius Caesar?

The emperor of Rome, and the stepson of Caesar Augustus, the one we talked about in the Christmas story. Augustus adopted him as his heir.

That detail tells us how much time has passed. Augustus ruled from 27 BC to AD 14. Tiberius ruled from AD 14 to 37, so his fifteenth year puts us around AD 28 or 29, which is when John started preaching. It lines up with verse 23, where Jesus is about thirty. Last we saw Him, He was twelve in the temple.

The Roman governor of Judea from about AD 26 to 36. His official title was prefect, and we know that for certain because in 1961 archaeologists digging in Caesarea found a stone slab with his name and title carved into it. It's called the Pilate Stone.

None of them got the word from the Lord.

]]> 657 What Do You Do When You Know It Was God but Don't Understand? (Luke 2:41-52) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Mary knew exactly who her son was. She had the angel, the virgin conception, the shepherds, and Simeon's prophecy. And when her twelve-year-old said he had to be in his Father's house, Scripture tells us plainly that she did not understand what he said to her. Today we're finishing Luke 2 with Jesus at twelve in the temple. This passage gets taught incorrectly a lot, so we're going to slow down and ask some questions of the text. We'll look at what Passover actually meant to this family, what Jesus was really doing among the teachers, and the difference between knowing something and understanding it.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What was the Feast of Passover? It goes back to Exodus 12, the night God rescued Israel from slavery in Egypt. Each family killed a lamb without defect and put its blood on the doorposts, and when God's judgment moved through Egypt that night, He passed over the homes marked with the blood. That same night Pharaoh finally let God's people go. God told them to keep that meal every year forever. Roasted lamb, bread without yeast because there hadn't been time to let it rise, and bitter herbs to remember the bitterness of slavery. The feast ran eight days, one for Passover itself and seven for the Feast of Unleavened Bread right after, which is why Luke says they stayed until the days were over. It fell in late March or April, right around when we observe Easter. Deuteronomy 16 required all the men to appear before the Lord three times a year, at Passover, Pentecost, and Tabernacles. Technically only Joseph had to go. Mary went anyway, which was common for devoted families but not universal. We see the same thing with Hannah going up year after year in 1 Samuel. Luke is telling us this was a faithful household. There was a lot of hard in their lives, and they kept showing up. Why did it take a day to notice Jesus was missing? Because nobody traveled alone. Nazareth was about eighty to ninety miles from Jerusalem by road, which was a three to five day walk, and families traveled together in large groups with relatives and neighbors for safety. Luke tells us exactly that in verse 44. So when Mary and Joseph couldn't find Jesus, it was because they assumed he was with the caravan, somewhere among thirty cousins. A whole day could pass before anyone noticed a twelve-year-old was gone. What was Jerusalem like during Passover? Packed. Scholars think Jerusalem normally held somewhere in the tens of thousands, and during Passover it swelled well beyond that. Josephus, the ancient Jewish historian, wrote about numbers in the millions. Many scholars think that's heavily exaggerated, or that he simply meant there were people everywhere. People camped on the hillsides and in surrounding villages because there was nowhere to stay in the city. The temple courts would have been loud and crowded, with lambs being sacrificed and the Levitical priests singing psalms. For a boy from a small village, this would have been one of the biggest things he saw all year. Why did Passover matter so much to them? For us it reads like a history lesson. For them it was how Israel remembered who they were and where they came from. God built the teaching right into it. Exodus 12 says that when your children ask what this rite means, you tell them the story again. So every year the children asked and the parents retold it. That's part of how the faith got handed down, because most people couldn't read. It was an oral history carried by ritual. And remember where they were standing. Israel was under Roman occupation. A feast week about God breaking the power of an empire and setting His people free meant something. During Passover, they were reminded of hope. Rome knew it too, which is why the Roman governor came up from the coast with extra soldiers during the feast to prevent a riot. What is being foreshadowed here? Think about what's happening. A twelve-year-old boy travels to Jerusalem for a feast about a lamb whose blood saved people from death, and he sits in the temple courts asking questions. About twenty years later he comes back to that same city, at that same feast, at that same time of year, and becomes the Lamb himself. Paul says it in 1 Corinthians: Christ our Passover has been sacrificed. There's one more thing I hadn't noticed until this time studying it. Mary and Joseph searched three days before they found him. Later, at Passover, three days would pass before Jesus was found again. That pricked my heart about how strategic God was in the timing. Was Jesus teaching or learning in the temple? This is where the passage often gets taught incorrectly. Verse 46 says he was sitting among the teachers, listening to them and asking them questions. Sitting, listening, asking. Those are the actions of a student. Then verse 47 says all who heard him were amazed at his understanding and his answers. Here's what ties them together: Jewish teaching worked by question and answer. A student asked a question, the teacher often answered with a question back, and the way you answered was how they measured whether you really understood. So we have a twelve-year-old sitting among the teachers, asking, listening, and answering. That's learning. But the depth of his answers was teaching them at the same time. He wasn't correcting them or taking over. The Greek word for understanding is sunesis, the ability to put things together and see how the pieces connect. They weren't amazed that he had memorized a lot of Scripture. Plenty of Jewish boys had. They were amazed at how he understood what it meant. This matters theologically. Jesus was fully God and fully human, and his human mind grew the way yours and mine does. He learned his Scripture. It wasn't just automatically installed. He sat under teachers. I think we need to give ourselves some grace there. People sometimes assume I have the whole Bible memorized. I don't. I know how to read it and study it. I know a lot more than I did five years ago, and that came from studying, listening, and asking questions. What's the difference between knowing and understanding? Verse 50 says his parents did not understand the saying he spoke to them. He had said he must be in his Father's house. Why didn't they understand? Mary knew he was God's Son. She knew she was a virgin when she conceived. She knew it. She didn't understand it yet. She had a twelve-year-old who had scraped his knees and run and played and laughed like any child. She knew, and she was still growing into understanding. So when we don't understand something right away, we tend to look down on ourselves as though something is wrong with us. This is Mary. This is Jesus. There's a difference between knowing and understanding, and we grow into it. Scripture says she treasured these things in her heart. Sometimes God reveals something and you know that you know it was Him, and you still have no idea what it means. Sometimes that clears up quickly. Sometimes you sit with it for years. When God first showed me Bible Study Live, I was standing at the villa in Italy and He showed me an image of myself teaching a Bible study. I knew it was revelation from the Lord. I had no idea what it meant. I was working at a church and leading mission trips at the time, so I assumed it was connected to that somehow. It took six years before I understood. For some of us it takes a lifetime. For some of us, it may be on the other side of heaven. What happened after they went home? Verse 51 says he continued in subjection to them. The Son of God went home to Nazareth and spent the next eighteen years obeying a young mom and a carpenter. The next time we see him, he's about thirty. Verse 52 says Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and men. The Greek word for increasing is prokopto, and it carries the picture of cutting a path forward through brush. Slow, steady progress. Notice there are four areas. Wisdom, stature, favor with God, favor with people. Mind, body, spirit, and relationships. He grew in all of them, which means he started in one place and moved to another. If that was true for Him, it's certainly true for you and me.

I had no idea what it meant. I was working at a church and leading mission trips at the time, so I assumed it was connected to that somehow. It took six years before I understood.

For some of us it takes a lifetime. For some of us, it may be on the other side of heaven.

What happened after they went home?

Verse 51 says he continued in subjection to them. The Son of God went home to Nazareth and spent the next eighteen years obeying a young mom and a carpenter. The next time we see him, he's about thirty.

Verse 52 says Jesus kept increasing in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and men. The Greek word for increasing is prokopto, and it carries the picture of cutting a path forward through brush. Slow, steady progress.

Notice there are four areas. Wisdom, stature, favor with God, favor with people. Mind, body, spirit, and relationships. He grew in all of them, which means he started in one place and moved to another. If that was true for Him, it's certainly true for you and me.

]]> 644 Is Every Word From God Meant to Be Shared? (Luke 2:22-40) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Two people recognize the Messiah on the same day, in the same temple. God gives one of them a private word and the other a public one. That difference has a lot to say about how God works through you when He starts giving you spiritual insight. Today we're in Luke 2:22-40 with Simeon and Anna. We'll talk about why Mary needed purification, what the two birds tell us about this family, how the Holy Spirit worked before Pentecost, and what Simeon meant when he said the thoughts of many hearts would be revealed.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why did Mary need to be purified? Jesus had no sin, so why would His mother need cleansing? This wasn't about sin. It had to do with the blood of childbirth, going back to Leviticus 12. That law said a mother waited forty days after having a son before returning to worship at the temple, and eighty after a daughter. Then she brought offerings to the priest. Being unclean didn't mean she'd done something wrong. It meant she wasn't ready to come near holy things yet. Leviticus 15 says any bodily discharge made a person ceremonially unclean, and Numbers 19 says touching a dead body made you unclean for a week. If Joseph helped Mary deliver, he would have been unclean too. This was ritual cleansing, not a sin offering. Why did they bring two birds instead of a lamb? Leviticus 12 called for a lamb and a bird, but if you couldn't afford a lamb you were permitted to bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons instead. They brought two birds. That tells us they couldn't afford a lamb. The Son of God was born into a family living in poverty. And think about this. She didn't need one. She was holding the Lamb. Years later Jesus would become the final sacrifice, which is why you and I don't have to bring a perfect lamb as an offering. Birds were plentiful in that region and nested in the clefts of the rock walls there. They were considered clean, simple, and harmless, which is why they fit as a sacrificial animal. Keep an eye on the doves as we move through Luke. Why does Scripture say "up to Jerusalem"? Because people literally had to go up. Jerusalem sat on a ridge higher than the surrounding area, so you climbed to reach it from almost any direction. The Psalms of Ascent were the songs people sang on that journey up the hill. How do the regions fit together? Galilee was the north, green and fertile with trade routes running through, which meant many non-Jewish people settled there. Isaiah calls it Galilee of the Gentiles. Southerners looked down on Galileans and could pick out their accent immediately. That's where Jesus grew up. Samaria was the middle. There was real bad blood between Samaritans and Jews over where to worship and which Scriptures to accept, and Jewish travelers would cross the Jordan and back just to avoid passing through. That's what makes it so striking later when Jesus had to go through Samaria to meet the woman at the well. Judea was the south, the heartland, with Jerusalem and Bethlehem. The name comes from Judah, which is also where we get the word Jew. Nazareth was a small village in Galilee, the kind of place that prompted Nathanael to ask whether anything good could come from there. Bethlehem was a small town in Judea about six miles south of Jerusalem, and its name means house of bread. It was David's hometown and the setting of Ruth and Boaz. Here's what used to confuse me. City of David usually means Jerusalem in the Old Testament. But Luke gives that title to Bethlehem, because that's where David was born and tended sheep. It's a reversal his readers would have caught. The King of kings comes from a small town, not the royal capital. Put the travel together: Nazareth in the north, ninety miles south to Bethlehem for the census, then six miles up to Jerusalem to present Him at the temple. How did the Holy Spirit work before Pentecost? Luke says the Spirit was upon Simeon and led him into the temple on the exact day Jesus was brought in. But Pentecost hasn't happened yet, so what is this? All through the Old Testament, the Spirit came upon specific people for a specific assignment or season. We saw it with Zechariah and Elizabeth. David spoke of it and begged God not to take it from him. It was real, and it was temporary. The Spirit came on and off people. At Pentecost that changes. Peter quotes Joel, that God will pour out His Spirit on all mankind and sons and daughters will prophesy. Not just prophets and kings. You and me. And it becomes permanent, made possible by the finished work of Jesus. So if you have come to faith in Jesus, you already have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. There's also the baptism of the Holy Spirit, which works more like what we see here, coming on someone for a specific purpose. We'll get to that later in the series. What does "the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed" mean? This line is easy to brush past. The word for revealed is apokalypto, where we get apocalypse. It means unveiling. It does not mean disaster. The word for thoughts is dialogismoi, where we get dialogue. It describes internal reasoning, the back and forth you have with yourself in your own head. So Simeon is talking about the private objections and doubts people carry about Jesus without ever saying them out loud. We see it again when Jesus asks the Pharisees why they are reasoning in their hearts, and after the resurrection when He asks why doubts arise in their hearts. He knows. Jesus is going to pull the cover off what people actually think about Him. That can bring peace, and it can also feel like chaos. I'm not saying God is the author of chaos. But when He brings truth into the light, whatever has been hiding in the dark scatters. In some places I've worked, you flip a light on and the cockroaches run. He exposes things because He wants to heal them. Why does Simeon speak privately and Anna publicly? Simeon waited a long time, and when the fulfillment came, he kept his word private. He gave it to one couple, specifically to Mary, and it was hard. A sword will pierce your own soul. Anna does the opposite. She declares her word publicly to everyone waiting for the redemption of Israel. Jewish law required two witnesses to establish something, going back to Deuteronomy, and Luke keeps giving us pairs. Zechariah and Mary. Elizabeth and Mary. Now Simeon and Anna. Luke calls Anna a prophetess with no hesitation. She was a woman, a widow, and at least eighty-four. Some translations suggest she'd been a widow for eighty-four years, which would put her past a hundred. Widows were among the outcasts of that culture, and her tribe, Asher, had been scattered generations earlier. She was part of the faithful remnant God preserved. Two people, same room, same day, two assignments. One private, one public. That's what I want you to carry. When God gives you a word, not everything is for everyone. If He's growing you in spiritual insight, recognize that, especially when the word is hard. Hard words are usually meant for private. Knowing the difference is part of spiritual maturity.

Leviticus 12 called for a lamb and a bird, but if you couldn't afford a lamb you were permitted to bring two turtledoves or two young pigeons instead.

They brought two birds. That tells us they couldn't afford a lamb. The Son of God was born into a family living in poverty.

And think about this. She didn't need one. She was holding the Lamb. Years later Jesus would become the final sacrifice, which is why you and I don't have to bring a perfect lamb as an offering.

Birds were plentiful in that region and nested in the clefts of the rock walls there. They were considered clean, simple, and harmless, which is why they fit as a sacrificial animal. Keep an eye on the doves as we move through Luke.

Why does Scripture say "up to Jerusalem"?

Because people literally had to go up. Jerusalem sat on a ridge higher than the surrounding area, so you climbed to reach it from almost any direction. The Psalms of Ascent were the songs people sang on that journey up the hill.

How do the regions fit together?

Galilee was the north, green and fertile with trade routes running through, which meant many non-Jewish people settled there. Isaiah calls it Galilee of the Gentiles. Southerners looked down on Galileans and could pick out their accent immediately. That's where Jesus grew up.

Samaria was the middle. There was real bad blood between Samaritans and Jews over where to worship and which Scriptures to accept, and Jewish travelers would cross the Jordan and back just to avoid passing through. That's what makes it so striking later when Jesus had to go through Samaria to meet the woman at the well.

Judea was the south, the heartland, with Jerusalem and Bethlehem. The name comes from Judah, which is also where we get the word Jew.

Nazareth was a small village in Galilee, the kind of place that prompted Nathanael to ask whether anything good could come from there. Bethlehem was a small town in Judea about six miles south of Jerusalem, and its name means house of bread. It was David's hometown and the setting of Ruth and Boaz.

Here's what used to confuse me. City of David usually means Jerusalem in the Old Testament. But Luke gives that title to Bethlehem, because that's where David was born and tended sheep. It's a reversal his readers would have caught. The King of kings comes from a small town, not the royal capital.

Put the travel together: Nazareth in the north, ninety miles south to Bethlehem for the census, then six miles up to Jerusalem to present Him at the temple.

How did the Holy Spirit work before Pentecost?

Luke says the Spirit was upon Simeon and led him into the temple on the exact day Jesus was brought in. But Pentecost hasn't happened yet, so what is this?

All through the Old Testament, the Spirit came upon specific people for a specific assignment or season. We saw it with Zechariah and Elizabeth. David spoke of it and begged God not to take it from him. It was real, and it was temporary. The Spirit came on and off people.

At Pentecost that changes. Peter quotes Joel, that God will pour out His Spirit on all mankind and sons and daughters will prophesy. Not just prophets and kings. You and me. And it becomes permanent, made possible by the finished work of Jesus.

So if you have come to faith in Jesus, you already have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. There's also the baptism of the Holy Spirit, which works more like what we see here, coming on someone for a specific purpose. We'll get to that later in the series.

What does "the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed" mean?

This line is easy to brush past. The word for revealed is apokalypto, where we get apocalypse. It means unveiling. It does not mean disaster.

The word for thoughts is dialogismoi, where we get dialogue. It describes internal reasoning, the back and forth you have with yourself in your own head. So Simeon is talking about the private objections and doubts people carry about Jesus without ever saying them out loud.

We see it again when Jesus asks the Pharisees why they are reasoning in their hearts, and after the resurrection when He asks why doubts arise in their hearts. He knows. Jesus is going to pull the cover off what people actually think about Him.

That can bring peace, and it can also feel like chaos. I'm not saying God is the author of chaos. But when He brings truth into the light, whatever has been hiding in the dark scatters. In some places I've worked, you flip a light on and the cockroaches run. He exposes things because He wants to heal them.

Why does Simeon speak privately and Anna publicly?

Simeon waited a long time, and when the fulfillment came, he kept his word private. He gave it to one couple, specifically to Mary, and it was hard. A sword will pierce your own soul.

Anna does the opposite. She declares her word publicly to everyone waiting for the redemption of Israel.

Jewish law required two witnesses to establish something, going back to Deuteronomy, and Luke keeps giving us pairs. Zechariah and Mary. Elizabeth and Mary. Now Simeon and Anna.

Luke calls Anna a prophetess with no hesitation. She was a woman, a widow, and at least eighty-four. Some translations suggest she'd been a widow for eighty-four years, which would put her past a hundred. Widows were among the outcasts of that culture, and her tribe, Asher, had been scattered generations earlier. She was part of the faithful remnant God preserved.

Two people, same room, same day, two assignments. One private, one public.

That's what I want you to carry. When God gives you a word, not everything is for everyone. If He's growing you in spiritual insight, recognize that, especially when the word is hard. Hard words are usually meant for private. Knowing the difference is part of spiritual maturity.

Featured quote

"Not everything is for everyone."

]]> 551 How Do I Reflect on My Week With God? Saturday Daily Affirmations (Psalm 143:10) | Christian Affirmations Today we slow down and look back over the week with God, noticing where He met us, carried us, and showed us grace. These Saturday affirmations help you reflect with honesty and gratitude instead of regret. Saturday is a good day to slow down and look back over your week with God. Not to replay everything or overthink it, but to notice where He met you, where He carried you, and where His grace showed up. These Scripture-based Christian affirmations are a gentle way to reflect with honesty and gratitude before the new week begins. I'll say each affirmation, pause so you can repeat it after me, and then read the Bible verse it comes from. Saturday affirmations and Scripture I thank God for walking with me through this week.

]]> 664 Does God Know Where You Are? Listener Questions and the Sacred Echo | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we're pressing pause on the Bible study so you have time to catch up. The color method takes real work, and not everyone can listen every day. A couple of times a month I'll stop, let you get caught up, and do a separate teaching that still connects to where we are. Two parts today. First, your questions from SpeakPipe, including a correction I owe you, a great catch about the bread and the fish in John 6, and a long answer about the Ethiopian Bible and the so-called lost books. Then a teaching on the sacred echo, and the one thing God has repeated to me all week: He knows exactly where you are, and He is the one who comes looking.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe A correction about the New World Translation I answered a question about translations recently and didn't catch that the caller mentioned the New World Translation. A listener pointed it out, and I'm grateful. I do not endorse it. That's the Watchtower Bible, used by Jehovah's Witnesses, and there is a great deal in it that is problematic from an evangelical Christian perspective. My answer was about the standard Christian translations, and I apologize for not catching the reference sooner. Why doesn't John mention the fish in the leftovers? Great catch, and it shows how intentional each gospel writer was. These were four different people with different purposes in what they chose to include. In John 6:13 the disciples fill twelve baskets with pieces of the five barley loaves, and the fish aren't named. But John isn't the odd one out. Matthew and Luke also describe the leftovers as broken pieces without naming the fish. Mark is the only one that says bread and fish. So why do three out of four focus on the bread? Bread carries real theological weight in John, because right after this Jesus gives the I am the bread of life teaching. John's attention lands there because he's setting up what's coming. Bread also echoes the manna God provided in the wilderness, and the crowd would have been thinking about Moses. The fish didn't carry that same weight. It may also be how people told stories. Bread was often shorthand for a whole meal. I've seen that serving overseas, where someone says they made bread and they mean bread and stew and fruit and everything else. It's like telling your family there's leftover pizza when there's also salad and breadsticks. The fish weren't forgotten. They just weren't the detail John wanted to highlight. Notice what you notice This is the whole reason I teach the color method. It slows your brain down enough to actually comprehend what you're reading. A lot of us trained ourselves into short attention spans. What the Lord draws your attention to may be different from what He draws mine to, because He is a personal God. We each have a personal calling and a personal relationship with Him. The more you do this, the more you'll see how He reveals things to you specifically. What about the Ethiopian Bible and the lost books? This comes up constantly, and I have some passionate feelings about it. The Ethiopian Orthodox Church has a Bible with 81 books. Ours has 66. The extra ones include titles like Enoch and Jubilees, plus some you've probably never heard of. First thing to understand: these books are not lost in the sense that anyone is hiding them from you. They've been around the whole time, part of the Ethiopian church from very early on, while the rest of the church settled into a different set. Take Enoch. It was written centuries after the real Enoch could have lived, and it's full of speculative material you don't find anywhere else in Scripture. It was attributed to him to give it credibility. Yes, Jude quotes a line from it, but quoting a true statement is not the same as calling the whole book inspired. Paul does something similar when he quotes pagan Greek poets in Acts. He's using a reference his audience knows, not endorsing it as Scripture. Jubilees is a later retelling of Genesis and Exodus that adds things the original text never says, like an angel dictating everything to Moses. The Meqabyan books sound like Maccabees, which we talked about in the 400 years of silence episode, but they're completely different. Nobody really knows where they came from, and they've never been used anywhere in church history outside Ethiopia. Catholic Bibles include several additional books, like Tobit and Judith. Those are a different case, because they have genuine historical value. I've read a number of them, Judith especially, while researching women in the early church for my new book. But they were written in Greek rather than Hebrew, which means they were never part of the Hebrew Bible that Jesus and the apostles used. Neither the Jewish community nor the early church recognized them as Scripture. Historical value, not scriptural value. Even in the Ethiopian church, some of those books, like the Shepherd of Hermas, are considered valuable but not inspired. So even they don't treat all 81 the same way. Here's the pattern. Most were written later than they claim, far removed from the original timeline, and credited to someone famous for credibility when that person had nothing to do with them. That's dishonest on its face, and it's worth asking what agenda was behind it. From an evangelical view, the 66 books we have are the ones God intended us to have, and that canon has been settled a very long time because those are the books that were verified. My honest advice: unless you're in seminary studying why these books were excluded, I wouldn't spend your time there. So many people I talk to don't yet know what their actual Bible says. Bankers don't study counterfeit money. They study the real thing until they know the feel and texture of it, so they recognize a fake immediately. Study the authentic Scriptures, and when someone hands you a sensational claim about hidden books, you'll be able to stop right there. If you want new revelation, go study the Old Testament. God is not trying to hide Himself from you. He wants you to know Him. What is a sacred echo? It's what happens when God keeps saying the same thing to you through different means until you catch it. Here's how mine went this week. On Sunday I woke up with the name Zebedee on my heart, the father of James and John. I went back to Scripture to see whether I was forgetting something, and I wasn't. There's very little about him. What we know is that he was a fisherman with multiple boats, which in that time meant he was a businessman with money enough to buy a second one. He had influence and likely some affluence. We don't really know him for himself. We know him as the father of those boys. Zebedee was doing what he was called to do. He was faithfully fishing. And that put his sons in the exact place they needed to be when Jesus came walking by. As a parent, that got me. My greatest aim is children who love and serve the Lord, far more than podcasts or books or anything else I do. There was a reason Zebedee was on the Sea of Galilee doing what he was doing, because God was getting ready to use his sons, and his ordinary faithfulness positioned them for it. I carried that into church still praying about it. During communion, our pastor's wife said we were doing something different. Instead of coming forward, they would bring it to us. As they served us where we sat, the Holy Spirit said: I know where you are. I can come to you. That was the Zebedee connection. God knew where he was, and He had positioned him there on purpose. Then this week we got to Luke 2 and the shepherds, and the same thing happened. They were out in the field doing a job many considered beneath them, and God sent an angel to announce that the Messiah had come. God located them. Where does that leave us? God can locate you. He knows exactly where you are, and much of the time He placed you there on purpose, in His timing. We talked about Zechariah this week, and how his past didn't prevent his future. The same is true for you. Your past does not prevent your future. Often it becomes one of the things the Lord uses to redeem and restore and prepare you for what He's calling you to. He seeks us out. He finds us. That's the pattern all through Scripture, and I'm so thankful for it. Featured quote "He is the God that locates us."

A couple of times a month I'll stop, let you get caught up, and do a separate teaching that still connects to where we are.

Two parts today. First, your questions from SpeakPipe, including a correction I owe you, a great catch about the bread and the fish in John 6, and a long answer about the Ethiopian Bible and the so-called lost books. Then a teaching on the sacred echo, and the one thing God has repeated to me all week: He knows exactly where you are, and He is the one who comes looking.

A correction about the New World Translation

I answered a question about translations recently and didn't catch that the caller mentioned the New World Translation. A listener pointed it out, and I'm grateful.

I do not endorse it. That's the Watchtower Bible, used by Jehovah's Witnesses, and there is a great deal in it that is problematic from an evangelical Christian perspective. My answer was about the standard Christian translations, and I apologize for not catching the reference sooner.

Why doesn't John mention the fish in the leftovers?

Great catch, and it shows how intentional each gospel writer was. These were four different people with different purposes in what they chose to include.

In John 6:13 the disciples fill twelve baskets with pieces of the five barley loaves, and the fish aren't named. But John isn't the odd one out. Matthew and Luke also describe the leftovers as broken pieces without naming the fish. Mark is the only one that says bread and fish.

So why do three out of four focus on the bread? Bread carries real theological weight in John, because right after this Jesus gives the I am the bread of life teaching. John's attention lands there because he's setting up what's coming. Bread also echoes the manna God provided in the wilderness, and the crowd would have been thinking about Moses. The fish didn't carry that same weight.

It may also be how people told stories. Bread was often shorthand for a whole meal. I've seen that serving overseas, where someone says they made bread and they mean bread and stew and fruit and everything else. It's like telling your family there's leftover pizza when there's also salad and breadsticks. The fish weren't forgotten. They just weren't the detail John wanted to highlight.

Notice what you notice

This is the whole reason I teach the color method. It slows your brain down enough to actually comprehend what you're reading.

A lot of us trained ourselves into short attention spans. What the Lord draws your attention to may be different from what He draws mine to, because He is a personal God. We each have a personal calling and a personal relationship with Him. The more you do this, the more you'll see how He reveals things to you specifically.

What about the Ethiopian Bible and the lost books?

This comes up constantly, and I have some passionate feelings about it.

The Ethiopian Orthodox Church has a Bible with 81 books. Ours has 66. The extra ones include titles like Enoch and Jubilees, plus some you've probably never heard of.

First thing to understand: these books are not lost in the sense that anyone is hiding them from you. They've been around the whole time, part of the Ethiopian church from very early on, while the rest of the church settled into a different set.

Take Enoch. It was written centuries after the real Enoch could have lived, and it's full of speculative material you don't find anywhere else in Scripture. It was attributed to him to give it credibility. Yes, Jude quotes a line from it, but quoting a true statement is not the same as calling the whole book inspired. Paul does something similar when he quotes pagan Greek poets in Acts. He's using a reference his audience knows, not endorsing it as Scripture.

Jubilees is a later retelling of Genesis and Exodus that adds things the original text never says, like an angel dictating everything to Moses.

The Meqabyan books sound like Maccabees, which we talked about in the 400 years of silence episode, but they're completely different. Nobody really knows where they came from, and they've never been used anywhere in church history outside Ethiopia.

Catholic Bibles include several additional books, like Tobit and Judith. Those are a different case, because they have genuine historical value. I've read a number of them, Judith especially, while researching women in the early church for my new book. But they were written in Greek rather than Hebrew, which means they were never part of the Hebrew Bible that Jesus and the apostles used. Neither the Jewish community nor the early church recognized them as Scripture. Historical value, not scriptural value.

Even in the Ethiopian church, some of those books, like the Shepherd of Hermas, are considered valuable but not inspired. So even they don't treat all 81 the same way.

Here's the pattern. Most were written later than they claim, far removed from the original timeline, and credited to someone famous for credibility when that person had nothing to do with them. That's dishonest on its face, and it's worth asking what agenda was behind it.

From an evangelical view, the 66 books we have are the ones God intended us to have, and that canon has been settled a very long time because those are the books that were verified.

My honest advice: unless you're in seminary studying why these books were excluded, I wouldn't spend your time there. So many people I talk to don't yet know what their actual Bible says. Bankers don't study counterfeit money. They study the real thing until they know the feel and texture of it, so they recognize a fake immediately. Study the authentic Scriptures, and when someone hands you a sensational claim about hidden books, you'll be able to stop right there.

If you want new revelation, go study the Old Testament. God is not trying to hide Himself from you. He wants you to know Him.

What is a sacred echo?

It's what happens when God keeps saying the same thing to you through different means until you catch it. Here's how mine went this week.

On Sunday I woke up with the name Zebedee on my heart, the father of James and John. I went back to Scripture to see whether I was forgetting something, and I wasn't. There's very little about him.

What we know is that he was a fisherman with multiple boats, which in that time meant he was a businessman with money enough to buy a second one. He had influence and likely some affluence. We don't really know him for himself. We know him as the father of those boys.

Zebedee was doing what he was called to do. He was faithfully fishing. And that put his sons in the exact place they needed to be when Jesus came walking by.

As a parent, that got me. My greatest aim is children who love and serve the Lord, far more than podcasts or books or anything else I do. There was a reason Zebedee was on the Sea of Galilee doing what he was doing, because God was getting ready to use his sons, and his ordinary faithfulness positioned them for it.

I carried that into church still praying about it. During communion, our pastor's wife said we were doing something different. Instead of coming forward, they would bring it to us. As they served us where we sat, the Holy Spirit said: I know where you are. I can come to you.

That was the Zebedee connection. God knew where he was, and He had positioned him there on purpose.

Then this week we got to Luke 2 and the shepherds, and the same thing happened. They were out in the field doing a job many considered beneath them, and God sent an angel to announce that the Messiah had come. God located them.

Where does that leave us?

God can locate you. He knows exactly where you are, and much of the time He placed you there on purpose, in His timing.

We talked about Zechariah this week, and how his past didn't prevent his future. The same is true for you. Your past does not prevent your future. Often it becomes one of the things the Lord uses to redeem and restore and prepare you for what He's calling you to.

He seeks us out. He finds us. That's the pattern all through Scripture, and I'm so thankful for it.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What is a decree, and who was Caesar Augustus? A decree is an official order from someone in power. It's not a request or a suggestion. It carries the force of law, and people could not ignore it. The Greek word here is dogma, which is where we get our English word, though here it means a legal ruling rather than a religious teaching. Caesar Augustus was the first emperor of Rome, ruling from about 27 BC to AD 14. Before that his name was Octavian, and he was the great nephew of Julius Caesar. When Julius was murdered, his will named Octavian as his adopted son and heir. He was only eighteen. He fought his way into power, and the Roman Senate eventually gave him a new name, Augustus, meaning the revered one or the majestic one. Why does Luke mention Caesar at all? Because of the contrast, and it's sharper than most of us realize. When Julius Caesar died, the Roman Senate declared him a god. That meant Augustus, as his adopted son, could call himself Divi Filius, Latin for son of the deified one. Son of a god. He put that title on coins and monuments across the empire. He picked up other titles too. People called him Savior, because his rule brought a long stretch of peace known as the Pax Romana. One inscription from Egypt during his reign calls him a great heavenly savior. So by the time Jesus was born, Rome already had its own son of a god, its own savior, and its own version of peace. All of it came from a human ruler. All of it was political propaganda. Luke wants you to see that the real Son of God and the real Savior was about to be born, not in a palace, but in a stable. The enemy always offers a counterfeit. What was the census actually for? Taxes. Augustus was counting his empire so he could tax it. Here's what he had no idea about. While he thought this was all his doing, God used that decree to move a pregnant teenager from Nazareth to Bethlehem, exactly where the prophet said the Messiah would be born. Augustus was helping fulfill a promise hundreds of years old and never knew it. Did women have to register for the census? Yes. Since the census was about taxes, most women were counted, and in the Roman province of Syria, which included Judea, women paid the poll tax too. Records show taxation started as early as twelve or fourteen and ran to age sixty-five. So Mary would have been on the tax rolls, though whether she had to appear in person is a separate question given how risky travel would have been. We actually have surviving census records from that world. The papyrus and leather used in Judea rotted away over the centuries, but in the dry climate of Egypt hundreds of census forms survived. And among documents found near the Dead Sea are the personal papers of a Jewish woman named Babatha, including her own census declaration listing land she owned. That's roughly a century after Mary's trip, and it's real evidence of a Jewish woman taking part in a Roman census. Was Jesus really born in a stable? Most scholars think the inn wasn't an inn at all. It was a house, and the space they stayed in was the area where the family brought their animals inside at night. That may sound strange in an American context, but I've served in missions around the world and seen homes with a section in the back where the cows are kept, so they don't get stolen or wander off. The point is the contrast. Caesar, the political son of a god, would have been born in a palace. The actual Son of God was born in a crowded house in the space reserved for animals, with no special room set aside and a feeding trough for a bed because it was the softest place available. God came right into the middle of normal and messy and crowded, on purpose. Why did God tell the shepherds? Shepherds were near the bottom of society. They worked outdoors constantly and often smelled like their animals, which meant they couldn't always keep the religious washing rules. Shepherding was work a lot of Jewish fathers wouldn't even teach their sons. They'd hire it out or give it to their daughters. And like women, a shepherd's testimony wasn't trusted as a witness in court. These were the people God chose to tell first. There's something beautiful in the location too. This was Bethlehem, David's hometown, and David was a shepherd boy before he was king. God describes Himself as the shepherd of His people in Psalm 23 and Ezekiel 34, and He promised a shepherd king from David's line. So God announces the birth of the great Shepherd King to ordinary shepherds working the same hills David once worked. One more thing worth considering. All through the Old Testament, it's often young people and women tending flocks. Rachel in Genesis 29 was a shepherdess. So were Zipporah and her sisters in Exodus. Watching sheep was often given to the youngest in the family, which is why David was almost overlooked when Samuel came. The word Luke uses is plural and masculine, but it's the kind of word that can describe a mixed group. We don't know for certain who was out there. What we do know is how society saw them. Why does it say "heavenly host" instead of angels? This is one of my favorite details. The word for host is stratia, and it means army. It connects to the Old Testament title Lord of hosts, meaning the Lord of armies, the commander of heaven's forces. So verse 13 is telling us a whole army of heaven showed up. And they didn't come to declare war. They came to announce peace. Remember Caesar and the Pax Romana, peace brought to the empire through armies. Now heaven's army appears and announces a completely different kind of peace, one that comes through a baby laid in a manger. This was the rescue plan, and it was always a spiritual battle. Where do we see "know Him and make Him known" in this passage? Right here, in the first twenty verses after Jesus is born. Verse 8 tells us the shepherds were out in the field keeping watch by night. They were working. It was an ordinary night on an ordinary shift, and God found them right there. Verse 10 has the angel bringing good news of great joy. That phrase is the Greek word we get evangelize from. The first person to share the good news of the gospel was an angel, and he shared it with shepherds in a field. God takes the first step and comes to where we are. Verse 15 has the shepherds saying let's go and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us. God isn't afraid of us verifying. He invites it. He wants us to seek Him out for ourselves. Then verse 17 says they made known what had been told to them. It's the same Greek word used in verse 15. God made Himself known to them, and after they experienced Him, they made Him known to everyone else. That's the whole pattern. God reveals Himself, you go see for yourself, and then you tell somebody. What does "those with whom he is pleased" mean? Verse 14 says peace among those with whom He is pleased, and I've wondered before how a person becomes someone God is pleased with. The Greek word is eudokia, made of two parts meaning good and to think or decide. It's God's good pleasure, His kind intention, His good decision. The focus isn't on how good the people are. It's on God's pleasure resting on them. It works a lot like the favor we talked about earlier in this series. It starts with God, not with us. Featured quote "Jesus is God's rescue plan.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What is a decree, and who was Caesar Augustus? A decree is an official order from someone in power. It's not a request or a suggestion. It carries the force of law, and people could not ignore it. The Greek word here is dogma, which is where we get our English word, though here it means a legal ruling rather than a religious teaching. Caesar Augustus was the first emperor of Rome, ruling from about 27 BC to AD 14. Before that his name was Octavian, and he was the great nephew of Julius Caesar. When Julius was murdered, his will named Octavian as his adopted son and heir. He was only eighteen. He fought his way into power, and the Roman Senate eventually gave him a new name, Augustus, meaning the revered one or the majestic one. Why does Luke mention Caesar at all? Because of the contrast, and it's sharper than most of us realize. When Julius Caesar died, the Roman Senate declared him a god. That meant Augustus, as his adopted son, could call himself Divi Filius, Latin for son of the deified one. Son of a god. He put that title on coins and monuments across the empire. He picked up other titles too. People called him Savior, because his rule brought a long stretch of peace known as the Pax Romana. One inscription from Egypt during his reign calls him a great heavenly savior. So by the time Jesus was born, Rome already had its own son of a god, its own savior, and its own version of peace. All of it came from a human ruler. All of it was political propaganda. Luke wants you to see that the real Son of God and the real Savior was about to be born, not in a palace, but in a stable. The enemy always offers a counterfeit. What was the census actually for? Taxes. Augustus was counting his empire so he could tax it. Here's what he had no idea about. While he thought this was all his doing, God used that decree to move a pregnant teenager from Nazareth to Bethlehem, exactly where the prophet said the Messiah would be born. Augustus was helping fulfill a promise hundreds of years old and never knew it. Did women have to register for the census? Yes. Since the census was about taxes, most women were counted, and in the Roman province of Syria, which included Judea, women paid the poll tax too. Records show taxation started as early as twelve or fourteen and ran to age sixty-five. So Mary would have been on the tax rolls, though whether she had to appear in person is a separate question given how risky travel would have been. We actually have surviving census records from that world. The papyrus and leather used in Judea rotted away over the centuries, but in the dry climate of Egypt hundreds of census forms survived. And among documents found near the Dead Sea are the personal papers of a Jewish woman named Babatha, including her own census declaration listing land she owned. That's roughly a century after Mary's trip, and it's real evidence of a Jewish woman taking part in a Roman census. Was Jesus really born in a stable? Most scholars think the inn wasn't an inn at all. It was a house, and the space they stayed in was the area where the family brought their animals inside at night. That may sound strange in an American context, but I've served in missions around the world and seen homes with a section in the back where the cows are kept, so they don't get stolen or wander off. The point is the contrast. Caesar, the political son of a god, would have been born in a palace. The actual Son of God was born in a crowded house in the space reserved for animals, with no special room set aside and a feeding trough for a bed because it was the softest place available. God came right into the middle of normal and messy and crowded, on purpose. Why did God tell the shepherds? Shepherds were near the bottom of society. They worked outdoors constantly and often smelled like their animals, which meant they couldn't always keep the religious washing rules. Shepherding was work a lot of Jewish fathers wouldn't even teach their sons. They'd hire it out or give it to their daughters. And like women, a shepherd's testimony wasn't trusted as a witness in court. These were the people God chose to tell first. There's something beautiful in the location too. This was Bethlehem, David's hometown, and David was a shepherd boy before he was king. God describes Himself as the shepherd of His people in Psalm 23 and Ezekiel 34, and He promised a shepherd king from David's line. So God announces the birth of the great Shepherd King to ordinary shepherds working the same hills David once worked. One more thing worth considering. All through the Old Testament, it's often young people and women tending flocks. Rachel in Genesis 29 was a shepherdess. So were Zipporah and her sisters in Exodus. Watching sheep was often given to the youngest in the family, which is why David was almost overlooked when Samuel came. The word Luke uses is plural and masculine, but it's the kind of word that can describe a mixed group. We don't know for certain who was out there. What we do know is how society saw them. Why does it say "heavenly host" instead of angels? This is one of my favorite details. The word for host is stratia, and it means army. It connects to the Old Testament title Lord of hosts, meaning the Lord of armies, the commander of heaven's forces. So verse 13 is telling us a whole army of heaven showed up. And they didn't come to declare war. They came to announce peace. Remember Caesar and the Pax Romana, peace brought to the empire through armies. Now heaven's army appears and announces a completely different kind of peace, one that comes through a baby laid in a manger. This was the rescue plan, and it was always a spiritual battle. Where do we see "know Him and make Him known" in this passage? Right here, in the first twenty verses after Jesus is born. Verse 8 tells us the shepherds were out in the field keeping watch by night. They were working. It was an ordinary night on an ordinary shift, and God found them right there. Verse 10 has the angel bringing good news of great joy. That phrase is the Greek word we get evangelize from. The first person to share the good news of the gospel was an angel, and he shared it with shepherds in a field. God takes the first step and comes to where we are. Verse 15 has the shepherds saying let's go and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has made known to us. God isn't afraid of us verifying. He invites it. He wants us to seek Him out for ourselves. Then verse 17 says they made known what had been told to them. It's the same Greek word used in verse 15. God made Himself known to them, and after they experienced Him, they made Him known to everyone else. That's the whole pattern. God reveals Himself, you go see for yourself, and then you tell somebody. What does "those with whom he is pleased" mean? Verse 14 says peace among those with whom He is pleased, and I've wondered before how a person becomes someone God is pleased with. The Greek word is eudokia, made of two parts meaning good and to think or decide. It's God's good pleasure, His kind intention, His good decision. The focus isn't on how good the people are. It's on God's pleasure resting on them. It works a lot like the favor we talked about earlier in this series. It starts with God, not with us. Featured quote "Jesus is God's rescue plan.

What is a decree, and who was Caesar Augustus?

A decree is an official order from someone in power. It's not a request or a suggestion. It carries the force of law, and people could not ignore it. The Greek word here is dogma, which is where we get our English word, though here it means a legal ruling rather than a religious teaching.

Caesar Augustus was the first emperor of Rome, ruling from about 27 BC to AD 14. Before that his name was Octavian, and he was the great nephew of Julius Caesar.

]]> 619 Does Your Past Disqualify You? (Luke 1:67-80) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Your Past Doesn't Disqualify You, It Prepares You: Luke 1:67-80 For nine months, Zechariah couldn't say a word. The man whose entire job was to speak on behalf of God to the people of God lost his voice because fear got louder than God's. And the very first thing he does when that voice comes back is prophesy. Today we finish Luke 1 with Zechariah's prophecy. We'll talk about what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit, what prophecy actually is, what the horn of salvation means, and how the area where Zechariah failed became the very place God used him. If you've been quietly disqualifying yourself because of your past, this one's for you. Links We visit Luke's house in Rome on our Bible Study Live trip. Bible Study Live is a small-group Bible study trip with Rachael Groll. Study Scripture where it happened in Rome, or slow down for a contemplative Bible study retreat in Maui. Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What does it mean to be filled with the Holy Spirit? Luke tells us Zechariah was filled with the Holy Spirit and prophesied. That's the same language he used for Elizabeth, and you're going to see it over and over in Luke and in Acts. The most famous example is Pentecost in Acts 2, but Luke uses it for Peter, for Stephen, and for Paul at key moments too. And almost every time Luke says someone was filled with the Holy Spirit, a prophetic word follows. It's his signature way of telling us that what comes next isn't coming from that person's own thinking or feelings. It's coming from God through them. I love that God keeps using people in the story of Jesus. Does He have to? No. But He does, because we were created to be in relationship with Him, to know Him, to make Him known, and to be known by Him. What is prophecy, really? A lot of people hear the word prophecy and think of predicting the future. Sometimes it means that. More often, prophecy is God's people speaking on His behalf, reminding others what God has already said, what He's already done, or what He's promised to do. It's forthtelling more often than foretelling. And prophecy isn't weird. It's all through your Bible. Entire books of the Old Testament are the words of the prophets. The silent years were called silent because there were no prophets in Israel. Now that Jesus is on the scene, we see the Holy Spirit and prophecy come roaring back. Here's what's interesting. Zechariah was a priest by training and by vocation. Prophecy wasn't technically his job. But after nine months of silence, the first thing he does with his restored voice is step into a prophetic role, and God uses him in it. What is Zechariah looking back on? His prophecy has two halves. If you're doing the color method and marking timing words, you may have caught it. The first half looks back, and the second half looks forward. In the first half, he praises God for keeping His covenant promises and raising up a Savior from David's line. He reminds the people what God already said through the prophets of old: that He would save them from their enemies and show the mercy He promised to Abraham. What do holiness and righteousness actually mean? Verse 75 talks about serving God in holiness and righteousness, and I think a lot of us check out when we see those words. We figure we could never measure up. I usually fall off the wagon by breakfast. But in the biblical sense, holiness is about spiritual wholeness, being dedicated to God and made whole because we're in right relationship with Him. Righteousness is very similar. It's being in right relationship with God. How do we get there? Through belief in Jesus. Before Jesus, that relationship was maintained through animal sacrifice under the old covenant. Jesus becomes the new covenant. He's the final sacrificial lamb. What is the horn of salvation? This is a Hebrew idiom that Zechariah's world would have understood immediately, but it's easy for us to miss. The image comes from an animal's horn, like a bull or a ram. The horn was that animal's main source of strength and its primary weapon for defense. So calling something a horn meant it was a source of real, effective power. In Psalm 18, God is called the horn of my salvation. In Psalm 132, God promises to make a horn sprout for David. When Zechariah says God has raised up a horn of salvation in the house of David, he's saying God has raised up a powerful deliverer from the promised royal line. This isn't the gentle, comforting side of God. It's His strength, the kind that actually acts on your behalf. What is Zechariah looking forward to? In the second half, he turns to the future and speaks over his son. John will prepare the way for the Lord by giving people knowledge of salvation through the forgiveness of their sins, so that when Jesus offers salvation, they're ready. Then he speaks about Jesus, the sunrise from on high who gives light to those sitting in darkness and the shadow of death, and guides our feet into the way of peace. The word for peace here carries the idea of shalom, and shalom is so much more than the absence of conflict. It means complete wholeness, things being set right. Ever since Eden, people have been trying to get back to that wholeness. It's impossible without Christ. Because of Jesus, we can finally be whole and restored to God. That's the good news. Jesus is the good news. Why does "serve him without fear" matter so much? Go back to verse 74. Zechariah prophesies that God's people will be delivered from their enemies so they can serve Him without fear. Think about who's saying this. Nine months earlier, fear fell on this man in the temple, and his fear-driven demand for proof cost him his voice and possibly his hearing. Now, filled with the Holy Spirit, he's prophesying that the whole point of salvation is to produce people who can serve God without fear. It's the exact opposite of where his story started. How does God use our past? Why do you think God took Zechariah's voice so seriously? Because his voice was going to become his area of spiritual gifting. As a priest, his entire role was to speak for God to God's people. Fear overcame him and he doubted, and there was a consequence and discipline. But that discipline led him right into his gifting. The enemy attacks in infancy what he fears in maturity. My mouth has been getting me in trouble my whole life. In first grade, my desk was literally put in the hallway because I would not stop talking. And my whole life is now dedicated to serving God with my voice. Your past does not prevent you. It prepares you, as long as you surrender it to Him. Some of us have disqualified ourselves from what God wants to do because of where we've been. But when you lay that down at the foot of the cross and ask the Holy Spirit to fill you and use you, He can take those dark seasons and step you right into your calling.

(Luke 1:57-66) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Allowing God's Voice to Be the Loudest | Luke 1:57-66 Sometimes the hardest voices to push past aren't the critics. They're the people who love you. In today's passage, Elizabeth finally gives birth, and the neighbors and relatives who had been celebrating God's mercy right alongside her show up with a plan for what to name the baby. They mean well. They're also wrong. And Elizabeth, who has experienced God for herself, says no. Today we're in Luke 1:57-66, the birth and naming of John. We'll talk about why everyone was making signs to Zechariah, why a name carried so much weight in that culture, and what it looks like to let God's voice be louder than even the well-meaning people in your life.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why were they making signs to Zechariah? This one always confused me. Gabriel told Zechariah he would be unable to speak until everything came to pass. So if he was mute, he could still hear, right? Why is everyone gesturing at him? The word Luke uses for Zechariah's condition is kophos, which carries the idea of being blunted. In that time it could mean deaf, it could mean mute, and sometimes it meant both. So the signs are a clue that Zechariah may not have been able to hear either. Think about what that means. If that's what was happening, he spent this entire pregnancy in silence, in a place where he could only really communicate with God. That's worth noticing. Who were the neighbors and relatives? Scripture tells us they heard the Lord had shown great mercy to Elizabeth, and they rejoiced with her. These weren't strangers or critics. They were people who loved this family, who could see the evidence of God working in her life, and who came to celebrate it. That's what makes the next part so striking. Why did they go over Elizabeth's head? On the eighth day they gathered to circumcise the baby, and they were ready to name him Zechariah after his father. Elizabeth said no, his name is John. And instead of listening to her, the living, breathing miracle standing right in front of them, they went to Zechariah. The man who was still mute, possibly deaf, and still carrying the consequence of not believing God. I don't think they had bad intentions. I think they just hadn't experienced God the way Elizabeth had. She had felt that baby leap when Mary walked in. She had been filled with the Holy Spirit. She knew that she knew. And Zechariah, in a very different way, knew too. He had spent months living with the consequence of his doubt. Why did the name matter so much? In our culture, naming a baby after family is mostly sentiment. In theirs, it meant much more. A name carried identity and calling. People believed you became what was spoken over you. That's why we see names changed in Scripture to reflect who God made someone to be, and why Jesus renamed Simon to Peter. Naming this baby Zechariah would have meant he'd follow in his father's footsteps as another priest from the line of Abijah, carrying the family's God-given role into the next generation. And this wasn't a quiet conversation at home. A circumcision was a public ceremony, and the whole community was there to witness the naming. So when Elizabeth said his name is John, she was announcing publicly that this child would not be what everyone expected. Gabriel had already said John would go before the Lord in the spirit and power of Elijah. His calling was prophetic, not priestly. The name was the first public sign that his life was going to look nothing like his father's. What happened when Zechariah wrote, "His name is John"? He asked for a writing tablet and wrote it out, and immediately his mouth was opened and he spoke, blessing God. I believe his freedom was tied to his obedience. Some people read this and see a harsh God. I see a loving one. As a parent, I discipline my kids because I know things they don't, because I love them, and because I want them in right relationship with God and with our family. Discipline motivated by love teaches us to obey. Zechariah came out of that season, obeyed, and was set free. What does this mean for us? People can love you, praise God with you, have your best interests at heart, and still lead you away from what God has said. That doesn't make them bad people. Sometimes the call of God on your life just doesn't make sense to anyone else. That's the whole reason I do what I do. You have to know God for yourself. Elizabeth and Zechariah could stand firm because they had heard His voice for themselves. His voice has to be the loudest voice in your life, even louder than the people who love you most. And sometimes we're the ones on the other side, doubting what God has said to someone else. That's worth sitting with too. Featured quote "The voice of God has to be the loudest voice in your life."

Why were they making signs to Zechariah?

This one always confused me. Gabriel told Zechariah he would be unable to speak until everything came to pass. So if he was mute, he could still hear, right? Why is everyone gesturing at him?

The word Luke uses for Zechariah's condition is kophos, which carries the idea of being blunted. In that time it could mean deaf, it could mean mute, and sometimes it meant both. So the signs are a clue that Zechariah may not have been able to hear either.

Who were the neighbors and relatives?

]]> 627 Did the Mother of Jesus Need a Savior? (Luke 1:39-56) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study If the Mother of Jesus Needed a Savior, You Do Too | Luke 1:39-56 Mary's song is one of the most beautiful things in all of Scripture, and I don't want us to rush past what she says in the second line. She calls God her Savior. The young woman God chose to carry His Son understood that she needed rescuing just like the rest of us, and she said it out loud in the middle of her own worship. That tells us something about her, and it tells us something about us too. Today we're in Luke 1:39-56, where Mary travels to see Elizabeth and two miraculous pregnancies end up in the same room. We'll talk about why John leaped in the womb, why Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, what the Magnificat actually is, and what it tells us that a poor teenage girl from Nazareth could weave twelve Old Testament references into a song she made up on the spot.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why did Mary go to see Elizabeth right away? Look at the timing here, because it matters. Gabriel has just delivered his message, and the very next thing we read is that Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country. She left right away. Based on the locations Luke names, scholars think that journey was about fifty to seventy miles. She was likely traveling alone, and it probably took her three to five days. That's not running over to a relative's house for the afternoon. That's a serious trip for a young girl carrying news that nobody was going to believe. Why did the baby leap in Elizabeth's womb? Because in Scripture, leaping is an expression of joy. We see it in Malachi, and we see David leaping and dancing before the Lord in 2 Samuel. So when Luke tells us the baby leaped, he's telling us John responded with joy. Which means John is already doing the very thing he was created to do. His role was to be the forerunner, the witness to Christ. And he's bearing witness to Jesus before either one of them has even been born. Why was Elizabeth filled with the Holy Spirit? Notice the order of what happens. The baby witnesses to Jesus, and that witness leads the way for the Holy Spirit to fill Elizabeth. This detail is worth slowing down for. We already know who Elizabeth was. She and Zechariah came from the priestly line, Scripture calls them righteous, and it says they walked blamelessly before the Lord. They already believed in God. They were already serving Him. And still, when the presence of Jesus comes into the room, Elizabeth gets filled with the Holy Spirit. Scripture teaches that there is an indwelling and there is a filling, and we're seeing evidence of that right here. Notice too what the filling produces. It's the prophetic gift. Remember, we have just come out of four hundred years with no prophets in Israel. Now that Jesus is on the scene, that spirit of prophecy is showing up again. What is the Magnificat? It's the song Mary sings in verses 46 through 55, and it gets its name from the first word of the Latin version. The word carries the idea of enlarging or magnifying. One translation puts that opening line as telling out the greatness of the Lord, which I think is a beautiful way to describe what she's doing. She is overflowing with the greatness of God. The song walks through the mighty acts of God, not only what He's done for Mary but what He's done for His people, and eventually that includes you and me. And running all the way through it is this theme of joy and rejoicing at the arrival of God's salvation. Watch for that, because it comes up again and again in Luke. How did a teenage girl know this much Scripture? This is the part that gets me every time. Go through the Magnificat and count the Old Testament references. There are twelve. Scholars believe Mary was around fourteen. She was from Nazareth, a rural town nobody paid much attention to. She describes herself as being of humble estate, which is another way of saying she was poor. And she was likely not well educated at all. She also had three to five days alone on that road to think. We learned in the last episode that Mary was a deep thinker, the kind of person who pondered things in her heart and kept turning them over. So this young woman had days to sit with what God had just told her and trace it back through the Scriptures she already knew. What comes out of her is her own theological song, naming what God has done, what He is doing, and what He will do. That puts her right alongside worship leaders like Hannah and Miriam. And it means something else too. In that culture, the early theological training of children was the mother's responsibility. So at some point, Mary was teaching the Hebrew Scriptures to the Son of God. Now, I know some of you want to push back and say He knew things only God could have taught Him, and that's absolutely true. But Scripture also says He grew in wisdom, and growing in wisdom means learning. Mary was part of how He learned. Why does Mary call God her Savior? Because she needed one. Verse 47 is Mary's own testimony about herself. My spirit rejoices in God my Savior. By her own admission, in her own words, she is recognizing her need for rescue. She understood that she was a sinner who needed a Savior, the same as anyone else who has ever lived. I want to be clear here, even at the risk of stepping on toes. Jesus is the only person who has ever lived without sin, past, present, or future. The teaching that Mary was conceived free from original sin is not found anywhere in Scripture. That's a tradition of man, not the word of God, and Mary herself tells us otherwise in her own song. And here's why that matters so much for you. If the woman God chose to carry Jesus needed a Savior, then you need one. So do I. What does "those who fear Him" mean? Verse 50 says His mercy is for those who fear Him, from generation to generation. That can be confusing coming right off the last episode, where we watched fear become the thing that paralyzed Zechariah and drowned out the voice of God. Different word, different meaning. Here it's talking about reverence, awe, honoring God the way He deserves to be honored. It's what happens when you're standing in front of something so much bigger than you are that you find yourself leaning in instead of backing away. What is the upside-down kingdom? Mary's song describes a kingdom that runs on reversal. The proud get scattered. The humble get lifted. The hungry get filled and the rich get sent away empty. What that does is redefine whose life actually counts as significant. What man elevates, God humbles. What man overlooks, God promotes. We see that all through Scripture, and we're seeing it here. Then she takes her own pregnancy and ties it directly to the covenant God made with Abraham. She isn't just excited that God picked her. She understands that she is part of a story that has been centuries in the making. Friend, so are you. It is not by accident that you're listening to this. You are part of a much larger story, and there's an invitation inside of that. Featured quote "If Mary, the mother of Jesus, needed a Savior, you and I need a Savior."

And running all the way through it is this theme of joy and rejoicing at the arrival of God's salvation. Watch for that, because it comes up again and again in Luke. How did a teenage girl know this much Scripture? This is the part that gets me every time. Go through the Magnificat and count the Old Testament references. There are twelve. Scholars believe Mary was around fourteen. She was from Nazareth, a rural town nobody paid much attention to. She describes herself as being of humble estate, which is another way of saying she was poor. And she was likely not well educated at all. She also had three to five days alone on that road to think. We learned in the last episode that Mary was a deep thinker, the kind of person who pondered things in her heart and kept turning them over. So this young woman had days to sit with what God had just told her and trace it back through the Scriptures she already knew. What comes out of her is her own theological song, naming what God has done, what He is doing, and what He will do. That puts her right alongside worship leaders like Hannah and Miriam. And it means something else too. In that culture, the early theological training of children was the mother's responsibility. So at some point, Mary was teaching the Hebrew Scriptures to the Son of God. Now, I know some of you want to push back and say He knew things only God could have taught Him, and that's absolutely true. But Scripture also says He grew in wisdom, and growing in wisdom means learning. Mary was part of how He learned. Why does Mary call God her Savior? Because she needed one. Verse 47 is Mary's own testimony about herself. My spirit rejoices in God my Savior. By her own admission, in her own words, she is recognizing her need for rescue. She understood that she was a sinner who needed a Savior, the same as anyone else who has ever lived. I want to be clear here, even at the risk of stepping on toes. Jesus is the only person who has ever lived without sin, past, present, or future. The teaching that Mary was conceived free from original sin is not found anywhere in Scripture. That's a tradition of man, not the word of God, and Mary herself tells us otherwise in her own song. And here's why that matters so much for you. If the woman God chose to carry Jesus needed a Savior, then you need one. So do I. What does "those who fear Him" mean? Verse 50 says His mercy is for those who fear Him, from generation to generation. That can be confusing coming right off the last episode, where we watched fear become the thing that paralyzed Zechariah and drowned out the voice of God. Different word, different meaning. Here it's talking about reverence, awe, honoring God the way He deserves to be honored. It's what happens when you're standing in front of something so much bigger than you are that you find yourself leaning in instead of backing away. What is the upside-down kingdom? Mary's song describes a kingdom that runs on reversal. The proud get scattered. The humble get lifted. The hungry get filled and the rich get sent away empty. What that does is redefine whose life actually counts as significant. What man elevates, God humbles. What man overlooks, God promotes. We see that all through Scripture, and we're seeing it here. Then she takes her own pregnancy and ties it directly to the covenant God made with Abraham. She isn't just excited that God picked her. She understands that she is part of a story that has been centuries in the making. Friend, so are you. It is not by accident that you're listening to this. You are part of a much larger story, and there's an invitation inside of that. Featured quote "If Mary, the mother of Jesus, needed a Savior, you and I need a Savior."

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices If the Mother of Jesus Needed a Savior, You Do Too | Luke 1:39-56

Mary's song is one of the most beautiful things in all of Scripture, and I don't want us to rush past what she says in the second line. She calls God her Savior. The young woman God chose to carry His Son understood that she needed rescuing just like the rest of us, and she said it out loud in the middle of her own worship. That tells us something about her, and it tells us something about us too.

Today we're in Luke 1:39-56, where Mary travels to see Elizabeth and two miraculous pregnancies end up in the same room. We'll talk about why John leaped in the womb, why Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, what the Magnificat actually is, and what it tells us that a poor teenage girl from Nazareth could weave twelve Old Testament references into a song she made up on the spot.

Why did Mary go to see Elizabeth right away?

Look at the timing here, because it matters. Gabriel has just delivered his message, and the very next thing we read is that Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country. She left right away.

Based on the locations Luke names, scholars think that journey was about fifty to seventy miles. She was likely traveling alone, and it probably took her three to five days. That's not running over to a relative's house for the afternoon. That's a serious trip for a young girl carrying news that nobody was going to believe.

Why did the baby leap in Elizabeth's womb?

Because in Scripture, leaping is an expression of joy. We see it in Malachi, and we see David leaping and dancing before the Lord in 2 Samuel. So when Luke tells us the baby leaped, he's telling us John responded with joy.

Which means John is already doing the very thing he was created to do. His role was to be the forerunner, the witness to Christ. And he's bearing witness to Jesus before either one of them has even been born.

Why was Elizabeth filled with the Holy Spirit?

Notice the order of what happens. The baby witnesses to Jesus, and that witness leads the way for the Holy Spirit to fill Elizabeth.

This detail is worth slowing down for. We already know who Elizabeth was. She and Zechariah came from the priestly line, Scripture calls them righteous, and it says they walked blamelessly before the Lord. They already believed in God. They were already serving Him. And still, when the presence of Jesus comes into the room, Elizabeth gets filled with the Holy Spirit. Scripture teaches that there is an indwelling and there is a filling, and we're seeing evidence of that right here.

Notice too what the filling produces. It's the prophetic gift. Remember, we have just come out of four hundred years with no prophets in Israel. Now that Jesus is on the scene, that spirit of prophecy is showing up again.

What is the Magnificat?

It's the song Mary sings in verses 46 through 55, and it gets its name from the first word of the Latin version. The word carries the idea of enlarging or magnifying. One translation puts that opening line as telling out the greatness of the Lord, which I think is a beautiful way to describe what she's doing. She is overflowing with the greatness of God.

The song walks through the mighty acts of God, not only what He's done for Mary but what He's done for His people, and eventually that includes you and me. And running all the way through it is this theme of joy and rejoicing at the arrival of God's salvation. Watch for that, because it comes up again and again in Luke.

How did a teenage girl know this much Scripture?

This is the part that gets me every time. Go through the Magnificat and count the Old Testament references. There are twelve.

Scholars believe Mary was around fourteen. She was from Nazareth, a rural town nobody paid much attention to. She describes herself as being of humble estate, which is another way of saying she was poor. And she was likely not well educated at all.

But Scripture also says He grew in wisdom, and growing in wisdom means learning. Mary was part of how He learned.

Why does Mary call God her Savior?

Because she needed one.

Verse 47 is Mary's own testimony about herself. My spirit rejoices in God my Savior. By her own admission, in her own words, she is recognizing her need for rescue. She understood that she was a sinner who needed a Savior, the same as anyone else who has ever lived.

The teaching that Mary was conceived free from original sin is not found anywhere in Scripture. That's a tradition of man, not the word of God, and Mary herself tells us otherwise in her own song.

And here's why that matters so much for you. If the woman God chose to carry Jesus needed a Savior, then you need one. So do I.

What does "those who fear Him" mean?

Verse 50 says His mercy is for those who fear Him, from generation to generation. That can be confusing coming right off the last episode, where we watched fear become the thing that paralyzed Zechariah and drowned out the voice of God.

Different word, different meaning. Here it's talking about reverence, awe, honoring God the way He deserves to be honored. It's what happens when you're standing in front of something so much bigger than you are that you find yourself leaning in instead of backing away.

What is the upside-down kingdom?

Mary's song describes a kingdom that runs on reversal. The proud get scattered. The humble get lifted. The hungry get filled and the rich get sent away empty. What that does is redefine whose life actually counts as significant. What man elevates, God humbles. What man overlooks, God promotes. We see that all through Scripture, and we're seeing it here.

Then she takes her own pregnancy and ties it directly to the covenant God made with Abraham. She isn't just excited that God picked her. She understands that she is part of a story that has been centuries in the making.

Friend, so are you. It is not by accident that you're listening to this. You are part of a much larger story, and there's an invitation inside of that.

Saturday Daily Affirmations (Lamentations 3:23) | Christian Affirmations Today we look back on the week and notice God's faithfulness in the moments we saw and the ones we missed. These Saturday affirmations help you release regret and end the week with gratitude. Saturday is a good day to slow down and look back over your week with God.

]]> 2525 What Does It Mean to Be Favored by God? (Luke 1:26-38) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Favored Is Not the Same Thing as Favorite (Luke 1:26-38) Have you ever wondered why, if you are really favored by God, life still feels this hard? A lot of us quietly carry that question. We hear that God favors His people, and then we look at our circumstances and feel confused, overlooked, or unqualified. The story of Mary clears up something we have gotten mixed up for a long time. In this episode we slow down in Luke 1:26-38, the moment the angel Gabriel visits Mary, and we sit with one word that changes everything: favored. Being favored by God is not the same thing as being His favorite, and once you see the difference, it changes how you read your own life. This is the second stop in our slow read through the Gospel of Luke. "And coming in, he said to her, 'Greetings, favored one! The Lord is with you.'" (Luke 1:28, NASB) Links We visit Luke's house in Rome on our Bible Study Live trip. Bible Study Live is a small-group Bible study trip with Rachael Groll. Study Scripture where it happened in Rome, or slow down for a contemplative Bible study retreat in Maui. Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What does "favored" actually mean in Luke 1:28? The word behind favored comes from the Greek word for grace. It describes someone who has been given grace, not someone who earned a gold star. When Gabriel calls Mary the favored one, he is not saying she out-performed every other woman alive. He is saying God freely poured out grace on her. Favor starts with God's character, not our performance. Is being favored the same as being God's favorite? This is where so many of us get tripped up. A favorite is earned. Think of the favorite student or the favorite child, the one who won the spot by their grades or their effort. Favored is the opposite. It is a free gift, and in Scripture it is tied to being given a purpose, not to comfort or ease. Mary was favored, and it led straight into a hard, costly assignment. Why would God favor a girl from Nazareth? Nazareth was a small, overlooked town with no reputation. Later in John's Gospel, someone asks whether anything good could come from there. That is the point. Out of every place and every person God could have chosen, He chose the girl nobody would have picked, because His favor has never been about status or standing. What did being favored cost Mary? Betrothal was far more than a modern engagement. It was a legally binding contract, essentially marriage in every way except living together. A pregnancy that was not her husband's could expose Mary to public disgrace and real danger. Her favor came wrapped in risk. That is the piece we miss when we treat favor like a reward for good behavior. Why did Gabriel respond to Mary so differently than to Zechariah? When Gabriel appeared to Zechariah, fear fell on him and he asked for proof. Mary was troubled too, but her response was to ponder, to turn the words over and work through them. Zechariah was older, credentialed, and established. Mary was young with no title or standing. Yet she is the one who trusted. God's favor and His ability to use us have nothing to do with our credentials. What does favor look like when you say "let it be"? Mary's words, let it be, came before she knew how any of it would work out. She still had to face Joseph, her town, and the math everyone would do on her pregnancy. Being favored did not remove the cost. It gave her the grace to trust God inside the cost. That is the invitation for us too, to trust Him so deeply that even when it does not make sense, we can say, let it be. Common Questions What passage does this episode cover? Luke 1:26-38, Gabriel's visit to Mary. It is the second teaching episode in the slow read through the Gospel of Luke. What Bible translation does Rachael use? Rachael reads from the ESV while using the color method and studies and teaches from the NASB, so you may hear small wording differences during the teaching. What is the color method? A simple Bible study approach Rachael teaches in the Bible Study 101 series for marking and noticing patterns in a passage as you read slowly. How can I send a question for the Luke series?

Zechariah was older, credentialed, and established. Mary was young with no title or standing. Yet she is the one who trusted. God's favor and His ability to use us have nothing to do with our credentials.

What does favor look like when you say "let it be"?

Mary's words, let it be, came before she knew how any of it would work out. She still had to face Joseph, her town, and the math everyone would do on her pregnancy. Being favored did not remove the cost. It gave her the grace to trust God inside the cost. That is the invitation for us too, to trust Him so deeply that even when it does not make sense, we can say, let it be.

]]> 683 How Does Fear Keep You From Hearing God? (Luke 1:5-25) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study When Fear Drowns Out God's Voice: Zechariah and Elizabeth: Luke 1:5-25 There are things that keep us from hearing God, and fear is one of the loudest. Not because God stops speaking, but because fear gets between us and what He is saying. Zechariah is a hard case to dismiss. He came from a priestly family, Scripture calls him righteous, and it says he walked blamelessly. He was literally in the middle of serving God when God spoke to him. And he still couldn't hear it, because he had waited and prayed so many years that the fear of another disappointment had gotten louder than the voice in the room. Links Today we slow down in Luke 1 and look at what fear actually cost him, and what it did not cost him. Bible Study Live is a small-group Bible study trip with Rachael Groll.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe At the end of this episode I talk about why we go to Rome. Each November our group stands in Luke's house, and reading his Gospel in that place makes the story feel close and real. Who was Herod, and why does Luke mention him first? Because Luke is anchoring this in real history. Herod the Great ruled Judea for Rome from roughly 37 to 4 BC. This is not once upon a time in a land far away. Luke is telling you when this happened so you can go and check it. There's also a contrast being set up in that very first sentence. On one side, a paranoid and violent king who was terrified of losing his power, and everyone was watching him. On the other side, God quietly setting the arrival of the real King in motion through an ordinary priest in a small town, while nobody important was paying attention. What is the division of Abijah? Long before this, King David divided the priests into twenty-four family groups so each one got a fair turn serving in the temple. You can read about it in 1 Chronicles 24. Abijah's group was eighth in line, and each group served about a week at a time, twice a year, plus festivals when everyone served together. Luke includes this detail for the same reason he named Herod. It tells you which family Zechariah belonged to and narrows down when this happened. This is a real man in a real place at a checkable moment in time. What does "daughters of Aaron" mean? Aaron was Moses' brother and the first priest of Israel. So this tells us Elizabeth also came from a priestly family. In that culture, a priest marrying a woman from a priestly line was considered an excellent match. Both of them came from the most respected religious families in the country. Which makes the years of childlessness harder, not easier. In that time, the assumption was that being without children meant you had done something wrong. That was never what God said, but it was what the culture said, and people still say versions of it today. Luke is showing us the opposite. These two had done everything right. Why couldn't John drink wine or strong drink? Gabriel is pointing to something like a Nazirite vow, described in Numbers. That was a promise a person made to set themselves completely apart for God, and abstaining from alcohol was part of it. Normally an adult made that vow for themselves. Here, John receives the calling before he is even born, the way Samson did in Judges 13. It's God's way of saying this child belongs to Him completely. There's a practical dimension too. John's assignment was to prepare the way for the Messiah, and God wanted no obstacles and no grounds for dismissing him. When someone carries a word from the Lord, anything that gives listeners a reason to doubt the source can undermine the message. Even Jesus and the disciples were accused of being drunk. What does "the spirit and power of Elijah" mean? Centuries earlier, Malachi said God would send someone with Elijah's spirit to prepare people before the Messiah arrived. Elijah was bold and direct, never afraid to call people back to God even when it cost him. Gabriel is not saying John is Elijah returned. He's giving a job description. John will carry that same boldness into the same role. Why does it matter that the angel is Gabriel? Because Gabriel is named only a handful of times in all of Scripture. Twice in Daniel, and twice in Luke. In Daniel, he explains a vision and lays out a countdown to the arrival of the Messiah. Now the same messenger who told Daniel to watch for Him has come back to say it's happening. Luke is the details man. That detail is not decoration. How does fear keep us from hearing God? Most of us have heard this taught as a mouth problem. He spoke doubt, and he was silenced. That's true as far as it goes. But what comes out of our mouths does not start in our mouths. It starts in the heart. Back up to verse twelve. Zechariah was troubled, and fear fell on him. The angel recognizes it immediately and speaks directly to that fear, and then rattles off roughly a dozen promises, one after another. Your prayer has been heard. You will have a son. You will call him John. You will have joy and gladness. Many will rejoice. He will be great before the Lord. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit from the womb. He will turn many back to God. He will go in the spirit and power of Elijah. He will turn the hearts of fathers to their children. He will turn the disobedient toward wisdom. He will make ready a people prepared for the Lord. A dozen supernatural promises, and Zechariah doesn't seem to hear past the first one. He's still standing in his fear. That's what fear does. It doesn't stop God from speaking. It makes His voice harder to receive. After all those years of waiting and praying, the waiting had almost become his identity, and the fear of it never happening spoke louder than the voice of God standing right in front of him. What did fear actually cost him? Here's the part worth sitting with. Look at verse twenty-four. After these days, Elizabeth conceived. She conceived anyway. Gabriel had said it would be fulfilled in its time, and it was. Zechariah's fear did not stop God from doing what God was going to do. What it stopped was his participation in it. A multitude of people were waiting outside for him, the very people he was called to lead and had served faithfully his whole life. He walked out with the greatest news of his life and could not say a word. He still got to see what God did. He just didn't get to tell anyone. He was doing all the right things on the outside and still let fear rob him on the inside. Our doubt will not stop God's plan. But it can silence our testimony of it. What's the invitation today? Sit with this one honestly. Where might God be authoring something in your life that you are too afraid to see? Where is fear the thing drowning out His voice? Maybe you've been holding a promise for a long time. Maybe you're afraid to hope, because hoping and being disappointed again feels worse than not hoping at all. Fear can keep you from recognizing the miracle standing directly in front of you. It won't stop God. It may stop you from being part of it. Featured quote "Our doubt won't stop God's plan.

Why was Zechariah struck mute? Gabriel says it plainly: because he did not believe the words that would be fulfilled in their time. The deeper issue was the fear underneath the unbelief.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices When Fear Drowns Out God's Voice: Zechariah and Elizabeth: Luke 1:5-25

There are things that keep us from hearing God, and fear is one of the loudest. Not because God stops speaking, but because fear gets between us and what He is saying.

Zechariah is a hard case to dismiss. He came from a priestly family, Scripture calls him righteous, and it says he walked blamelessly. He was literally in the middle of serving God when God spoke to him. And he still couldn't hear it, because he had waited and prayed so many years that the fear of another disappointment had gotten louder than the voice in the room.

Today we slow down in Luke 1 and look at what fear actually cost him, and what it did not cost him.

At the end of this episode I talk about why we go to Rome. Each November our group stands in Luke's house, and reading his Gospel in that place makes the story feel close and real.




Who was Herod, and why does Luke mention him first?

Because Luke is anchoring this in real history. Herod the Great ruled Judea for Rome from roughly 37 to 4 BC. This is not once upon a time in a land far away. Luke is telling you when this happened so you can go and check it.

There's also a contrast being set up in that very first sentence. On one side, a paranoid and violent king who was terrified of losing his power, and everyone was watching him. On the other side, God quietly setting the arrival of the real King in motion through an ordinary priest in a small town, while nobody important was paying attention.

What is the division of Abijah?

Long before this, King David divided the priests into twenty-four family groups so each one got a fair turn serving in the temple. You can read about it in 1 Chronicles 24. Abijah's group was eighth in line, and each group served about a week at a time, twice a year, plus festivals when everyone served together.

Luke includes this detail for the same reason he named Herod. It tells you which family Zechariah belonged to and narrows down when this happened. This is a real man in a real place at a checkable moment in time.

What does "daughters of Aaron" mean?

Aaron was Moses' brother and the first priest of Israel. So this tells us Elizabeth also came from a priestly family. In that culture, a priest marrying a woman from a priestly line was considered an excellent match.

Both of them came from the most respected religious families in the country. Which makes the years of childlessness harder, not easier. In that time, the assumption was that being without children meant you had done something wrong. That was never what God said, but it was what the culture said, and people still say versions of it today. Luke is showing us the opposite. These two had done everything right.

Why couldn't John drink wine or strong drink?

Gabriel is pointing to something like a Nazirite vow, described in Numbers. That was a promise a person made to set themselves completely apart for God, and abstaining from alcohol was part of it. Normally an adult made that vow for themselves. Here, John receives the calling before he is even born, the way Samson did in Judges 13. It's God's way of saying this child belongs to Him completely.

There's a practical dimension too. John's assignment was to prepare the way for the Messiah, and God wanted no obstacles and no grounds for dismissing him. When someone carries a word from the Lord, anything that gives listeners a reason to doubt the source can undermine the message. Even Jesus and the disciples were accused of being drunk.

What does "the spirit and power of Elijah" mean?

Centuries earlier, Malachi said God would send someone with Elijah's spirit to prepare people before the Messiah arrived. Elijah was bold and direct, never afraid to call people back to God even when it cost him. Gabriel is not saying John is Elijah returned. He's giving a job description. John will carry that same boldness into the same role.

Why does it matter that the angel is Gabriel?

Because Gabriel is named only a handful of times in all of Scripture. Twice in Daniel, and twice in Luke. In Daniel, he explains a vision and lays out a countdown to the arrival of the Messiah. Now the same messenger who told Daniel to watch for Him has come back to say it's happening.

Luke is the details man. That detail is not decoration.

How does fear keep us from hearing God?

Most of us have heard this taught as a mouth problem. He spoke doubt, and he was silenced. That's true as far as it goes. But what comes out of our mouths does not start in our mouths. It starts in the heart.

Back up to verse twelve. Zechariah was troubled, and fear fell on him. The angel recognizes it immediately and speaks directly to that fear, and then rattles off roughly a dozen promises, one after another. Your prayer has been heard. You will have a son. You will call him John. You will have joy and gladness. Many will rejoice. He will be great before the Lord. He will be filled with the Holy Spirit from the womb. He will turn many back to God. He will go in the spirit and power of Elijah. He will turn the hearts of fathers to their children. He will turn the disobedient toward wisdom. He will make ready a people prepared for the Lord.

A dozen supernatural promises, and Zechariah doesn't seem to hear past the first one. He's still standing in his fear. That's what fear does. It doesn't stop God from speaking. It makes His voice harder to receive.

After all those years of waiting and praying, the waiting had almost become his identity, and the fear of it never happening spoke louder than the voice of God standing right in front of him.

What did fear actually cost him?

Here's the part worth sitting with. Look at verse twenty-four. After these days, Elizabeth conceived.

She conceived anyway. Gabriel had said it would be fulfilled in its time, and it was. Zechariah's fear did not stop God from doing what God was going to do.

What it stopped was his participation in it. A multitude of people were waiting outside for him, the very people he was called to lead and had served faithfully his whole life. He walked out with the greatest news of his life and could not say a word. He still got to see what God did. He just didn't get to tell anyone.

He was doing all the right things on the outside and still let fear rob him on the inside. Our doubt will not stop God's plan. But it can silence our testimony of it.

What's the invitation today?

Sit with this one honestly. Where might God be authoring something in your life that you are too afraid to see? Where is fear the thing drowning out His voice?

Maybe you've been holding a promise for a long time. Maybe you're afraid to hope, because hoping and being disappointed again feels worse than not hoping at all. Fear can keep you from recognizing the miracle standing directly in front of you.

It won't stop God. It may stop you from being part of it.

Frequently asked questions

Is fear a barrier to hearing God's voice?
Yes, and Zechariah is one of the clearest examples in Scripture. God was speaking audibly through a messenger standing in front of him, and fear still kept him from receiving it.


Why was Zechariah struck mute?
Gabriel says it plainly: because he did not believe the words that would be fulfilled in their time. The deeper issue was the fear underneath the unbelief.


Did Zechariah's unbelief stop the promise?
No. Elizabeth conceived exactly as Gabriel said. What his fear cost him was the ability to speak about it, not the miracle itself.


Were Zechariah and Elizabeth being punished with barrenness?
No. Luke goes out of his way to tell us both were righteous and walked blamelessly. The assumption that childlessness signaled wrongdoing was cultural, not biblical.

]]> 619 Who Wrote the Gospel of Luke? An Introduction to Luke | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Luke Was Not a Disciple: An Introduction to the Gospel of Luke We're starting our fall study of the Gospel of Luke, and before we open the text, it's worth knowing who wrote this book and why. Luke was a physician, a careful historian, and the only non-Jewish author in all of Scripture. He wasn't one of the twelve. He never met Jesus. And he wrote for someone who had already heard the stories but needed something solid underneath them.If you have ever felt like an outsider in church, or found that your own faith has gotten a little shakier than you'd like to admit, this is your gospel.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe I close this episode by sharing what it was like to stand in Luke's house in Rome. Our Bible Study Live group visits there every November, and it's one of the places where Scripture stops feeling far away. Why are we studying Luke and Acts together? Because that's how they were written. Luke was originally the first of two books, with Acts as the second. Treating them as one continuous work is the way they were meant to be read, and together they make up roughly a quarter of the New Testament. Luke gives us the birth, life, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus. Acts picks up with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the formation of the early church, and the work of the apostles. Who wrote the Gospel of Luke? The book itself doesn't name its author, but the consensus is unanimous and uncontested. Early Christian tradition, along with the writing style and structure, all point to Luke. This isn't one of the books scholars argue about.Here's what surprises most people: Luke was not one of the disciples. He never knew Jesus personally. He was a Gentile who later became a follower of Jesus, which makes him the only non-Jewish author of any book in the Bible. Paul calls him a dear friend and tells us he was a physician. He was educated, careful as a historian, and a theologian. Who was Theophilus? The name means one who loves God, which has led some to read it as a title for any believer. That's a fair application, but it's probably not what it meant originally. Luke calls him most excellent, and that same phrase is used elsewhere in Scripture for Roman officials. Most scholars land on Theophilus being a Roman official or at least a man of real wealth and status, quite possibly Luke's sponsor, the person who funded the writing and distribution. Either way, this was a letter written to a specific man for a specific reason. Why did Luke write a fourth gospel? Because there was a gap. Matthew wrote for a Jewish audience. Mark wrote a short account for the church in Rome. But Greek-speaking Gentiles had only oral accounts and brief written summaries. They had no complete story of Jesus from a perspective that made sense to them. Luke saw the need, and the Lord led him to fill it. Most of his research was likely done while Paul was imprisoned in Caesarea, and he probably finished soon after arriving in Rome.You can see that Gentile focus in the text itself. Matthew traces the genealogy of Jesus back to Abraham, which is what a Jewish audience would want. Luke traces it all the way back to Adam, because his readers needed to know that Jesus came for all of humanity, not one nation. What makes Luke different from the other gospels? Luke's writing (Luke and Acts together) is the longest book in the New Testament and the most comprehensive account of the life of Jesus. It has the most polished Greek. It's the only gospel that shows us Jesus as a young boy. It gives us a large body of teaching and parables found nowhere else, most of it delivered on the road to Jerusalem.Luke also keeps his eye on particular people: the poor, women, widows, children, the sick, the social outcasts. He was a doctor, and he notices things the others don't. He pays close attention to the prayer life of Jesus, to joy, and to the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of Jesus and in the lives of His followers. The title he uses most is Son of Man, which holds together that Jesus was fully God and fully man. What does "exact truth" actually mean in Luke 1:4? This is the heart of it. Luke states his purpose plainly: so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught. The Greek word behind exact truth shares a root with our English word asphalt, and it carries the sense of something firm and solid, a stable foundation, something that will not let you slip.That's what Luke was after. He wrote so that a man who had already been taught would have something concrete under his feet when life got hard. Why does that matter for us? Because a lot of people are walking around with a faith more fragile than they would ever say out loud. You can attend every Sunday and know all the right words, and still find that a hard season, a painful loss, or a stack of unanswered questions has softened the ground underneath you.That's exactly who Luke wrote for. And it's why this gospel is so accessible now. Luke wrote for outsiders, for people with no background and no context, starting from the beginning. The poor, the Gentile, the tax collector, the Samaritan woman, the leper, the sinner, all of them get placed at the center of his story.If you have ever felt too far outside to be included in what God is doing, this is your gospel. And if you haven't felt that way, someone near you has. Featured quote: "Luke is saying, I wrote this for you so that you would have something firm and stable to stand on."

No. Luke never met Jesus and was not one of the twelve. He came to faith later and built his account on eyewitness testimony and careful research. Was Luke Jewish? No. Luke was a Gentile, which makes him the only non-Jewish author of any book in the Bible. Should I read Luke or John first if I'm new to the Bible? There's no bad place to start. But Luke explains things in a way that assumes no background, which makes it an especially good entry point if church language feels unfamiliar. Why study Luke and Acts as one book? Because Luke wrote them that way, as volume one and volume two of a single work addressed to the same man. Learn more about your ad choices.

Most of his research was likely done while Paul was imprisoned in Caesarea, and he probably finished soon after arriving in Rome.You can see that Gentile focus in the text itself. Matthew traces the genealogy of Jesus back to Abraham, which is what a Jewish audience would want. Luke traces it all the way back to Adam, because his readers needed to know that Jesus came for all of humanity, not one nation. What makes Luke different from the other gospels? Luke's writing (Luke and Acts together) is the longest book in the New Testament and the most comprehensive account of the life of Jesus. It has the most polished Greek. It's the only gospel that shows us Jesus as a young boy. It gives us a large body of teaching and parables found nowhere else, most of it delivered on the road to Jerusalem.Luke also keeps his eye on particular people: the poor, women, widows, children, the sick, the social outcasts. He was a doctor, and he notices things the others don't. He pays close attention to the prayer life of Jesus, to joy, and to the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of Jesus and in the lives of His followers. The title he uses most is Son of Man, which holds together that Jesus was fully God and fully man. What does "exact truth" actually mean in Luke 1:4? This is the heart of it. Luke states his purpose plainly: so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught. The Greek word behind exact truth shares a root with our English word asphalt, and it carries the sense of something firm and solid, a stable foundation, something that will not let you slip.That's what Luke was after. He wrote so that a man who had already been taught would have something concrete under his feet when life got hard. Why does that matter for us? Because a lot of people are walking around with a faith more fragile than they would ever say out loud. You can attend every Sunday and know all the right words, and still find that a hard season, a painful loss, or a stack of unanswered questions has softened the ground underneath you.That's exactly who Luke wrote for. And it's why this gospel is so accessible now. Luke wrote for outsiders, for people with no background and no context, starting from the beginning. The poor, the Gentile, the tax collector, the Samaritan woman, the leper, the sinner, all of them get placed at the center of his story.If you have ever felt too far outside to be included in what God is doing, this is your gospel.

We're starting our fall study of the Gospel of Luke, and before we open the text, it's worth knowing who wrote this book and why. Luke was a physician, a careful historian, and the only non-Jewish author in all of Scripture. He wasn't one of the twelve. He never met Jesus. And he wrote for someone who had already heard the stories but needed something solid underneath them.If you have ever felt like an outsider in church, or found that your own faith has gotten a little shakier than you'd like to admit, this is your gospel.

I close this episode by sharing what it was like to stand in Luke's house in Rome. Our Bible Study Live group visits there every November, and it's one of the places where Scripture stops feeling far away.




Why are we studying Luke and Acts together?

Because that's how they were written. Luke was originally the first of two books, with Acts as the second. Treating them as one continuous work is the way they were meant to be read, and together they make up roughly a quarter of the New Testament. Luke gives us the birth, life, ministry, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus. Acts picks up with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the formation of the early church, and the work of the apostles.


Who wrote the Gospel of Luke?

The book itself doesn't name its author, but the consensus is unanimous and uncontested. Early Christian tradition, along with the writing style and structure, all point to Luke. This isn't one of the books scholars argue about.Here's what surprises most people: Luke was not one of the disciples. He never knew Jesus personally. He was a Gentile who later became a follower of Jesus, which makes him the only non-Jewish author of any book in the Bible. Paul calls him a dear friend and tells us he was a physician. He was educated, careful as a historian, and a theologian.


Who was Theophilus?

The name means one who loves God, which has led some to read it as a title for any believer. That's a fair application, but it's probably not what it meant originally. Luke calls him most excellent, and that same phrase is used elsewhere in Scripture for Roman officials. Most scholars land on Theophilus being a Roman official or at least a man of real wealth and status, quite possibly Luke's sponsor, the person who funded the writing and distribution. Either way, this was a letter written to a specific man for a specific reason.


Why did Luke write a fourth gospel?

Because there was a gap. Matthew wrote for a Jewish audience. Mark wrote a short account for the church in Rome. But Greek-speaking Gentiles had only oral accounts and brief written summaries. They had no complete story of Jesus from a perspective that made sense to them. Luke saw the need, and the Lord led him to fill it. Most of his research was likely done while Paul was imprisoned in Caesarea, and he probably finished soon after arriving in Rome.You can see that Gentile focus in the text itself. Matthew traces the genealogy of Jesus back to Abraham, which is what a Jewish audience would want. Luke traces it all the way back to Adam, because his readers needed to know that Jesus came for all of humanity, not one nation.


What makes Luke different from the other gospels?

Luke's writing (Luke and Acts together) is the longest book in the New Testament and the most comprehensive account of the life of Jesus. It has the most polished Greek. It's the only gospel that shows us Jesus as a young boy. It gives us a large body of teaching and parables found nowhere else, most of it delivered on the road to Jerusalem.Luke also keeps his eye on particular people: the poor, women, widows, children, the sick, the social outcasts. He was a doctor, and he notices things the others don't. He pays close attention to the prayer life of Jesus, to joy, and to the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of Jesus and in the lives of His followers. The title he uses most is Son of Man, which holds together that Jesus was fully God and fully man.


What does "exact truth" actually mean in Luke 1:4?

This is the heart of it. Luke states his purpose plainly: so that you may know the exact truth about the things you have been taught. The Greek word behind exact truth shares a root with our English word asphalt, and it carries the sense of something firm and solid, a stable foundation, something that will not let you slip.That's what Luke was after.

]]> 3148 What Does It Take to Step Out Before God Moves? (Joshua 3-4) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Holy Audacity: Stepping Into the Water Before It Parts | Joshua 3 and 4 Sometimes God clears the path before you take a step. And sometimes He asks you to walk into the water while it's still standing there. If you're in a season where obedience feels reckless, where you keep asking who you think you are to be doing this, this conversation is for you. Rachael sits down with her friend Silvia, who she met on the Bible Study Live trip to Italy, to talk about what God did on their recent trip to Maui. Silvia opens up about the insecurity that hit right as she was preparing to launch something God had clearly called her to, the moment another woman spoke truth over her, and how God fought that battle in the space of a few hours. Then Rachael teaches through Joshua 3 and 4, the crossing of the Jordan, and the twelve stones that were meant to mark what God had done.

Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Listen to Sylvia's new podcast, Echoes of Eden, available now wherever you get your podcasts. What is holy audacity? It's the phrase that came out of a moment on the Maui trip when Rachael found herself asking how she had the audacity to think she should be doing this at all, and the Lord answered that He was the one who told her to do it. Holy audacity is the nerve to obey something bigger than you, not because you feel qualified, but because God said so. It's a prayer worth praying: Lord, give me some holy audacity moments. Challenge me with big obedience so I can see You show up in a big way. Why does the enemy attack right before you step out? Because the initial obedience usually isn't where we get stuck. Most of us say yes. It's the middle of the road where self-doubt, comparison, and insecurity start talking. As Rachael puts it, the enemy attacks in infancy what he fears in maturity. Silvia was being called Lady Wisdom by the other women on the trip at the very moment she was internally convinced she had no business doing what God had asked of her. Both things were happening in the same room on the same day. What's the difference between the Red Sea and the Jordan River? This is the heart of the teaching. In Exodus 14, God parted the sea first and the people of Israel walked across on dry ground. A generation later in Joshua 3, they face another body of water, and this time the instruction is different. The priests carrying the ark are told to step into the Jordan while the water is still flowing. The waters don't part until their feet are already wet.It's one thing to trust that God will hold back the water while you're standing on dry ground. It's another thing entirely to step in while the water is still there. The miracle still came and the result was the same, but the method changed, and that change required a different kind of obedience. Why would God change His method? Because we have a tendency to chase the miracle instead of the miracle worker. When we've seen God move a certain way before, we start expecting the pattern instead of the Person. Changing the method reorients our hearts back toward Him. Notice too what went first into the Jordan: the ark, the presence of God. His presence goes ahead and makes the way, and then the rest of the people cross.What do the twelve stones in Joshua 4 mean?After the crossing, God tells Joshua to have twelve men take twelve stones from the very place where the priests' feet had stood, and set them down where they camped that night. They were markers, so that when future generations asked what these stones meant, the story would get told again.That's what a marker moment is. A place you can look back to and say, if He did it then, He can do it now. When you're standing at the edge of water that hasn't parted yet, your stones are what you have. It made no sense then either, and He was still faithful. So the question worth sitting with: where are your river stones?

Holy audacity is the nerve to obey something bigger than you, not because you feel qualified, but because God said so. It's a prayer worth praying: Lord, give me some holy audacity moments. Challenge me with big obedience so I can see You show up in a big way.

]]> 3046 What Is a Gospel? How to Read Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Before we open the Gospel of Luke, there's a question worth answering: what exactly is a gospel? Most of us have read these four books without ever stopping to ask what kind of writing they are, and that one gap changes everything about how we read them. Gospel is a genre. These are ancient biographies of Jesus, written by four different men to four different audiences, and they were never meant to be read the way we read a modern news report. This episode covers why there are four, why they don't always line up, why we can trust them, and how to actually read them well. Links We visit Luke's house in Rome on our Bible Study Live trip.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe What does the word gospel actually mean? Gospel is a genre, and genre simply means the kind of writing a work is. The Bible contains poetry, letters, prophecy, law, and historical narrative, and each one asks to be read differently. The four gospels sit together at the front of the New Testament, and they are essentially biographies of the life of Jesus. Knowing that changes your expectations before you read a single verse. Why are there four gospels instead of one? Think about walking into a library and looking for a biography of Abraham Lincoln. A search on Amazon turns up more than ten thousand books about him. Some cover his presidency, some his politics, some his character, some only his childhood, some his views on the Bible, some his war years. Every one of those historians chose what to emphasize. Ancient historians worked the same way. They wrote with clear moral, political, and theological purposes, and readers were expected to draw lessons from the work. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John each had a lens, and a different audience in mind. Can we trust the gospels? Yes, and the reasons are worth knowing. These books were written while eyewitnesses were still alive and still holding positions of authority in the church, which means the oral tradition could be checked by people who had been there. They were written within the first two generations, while the teachings of Jesus were still fresh. And the culture itself was built for careful preservation. Students learned their teachers' sayings rigorously, taking notes and memorizing, with some repeating the previous day's lecture before getting out of bed. The disciples of Jesus treated His words that way, and many of them became the teachers passing those words on. Why don't the gospels always match up? This is where a lot of readers get stuck, and it usually comes from applying modern expectations to ancient writing. Three things help. First, no one in that culture expected teachings to appear in chronological sequence. Teaching was situational, the way a grandmother's saying comes back to you in the moment it fits rather than in the order she said it. Second, word-for-word repetition was not the standard. Most people could not read, so teaching passed down orally, and paraphrasing was a normal and accepted practice. On top of that, Jesus often spoke Aramaic while the gospels were written in Greek, so His words were being translated. Third, ancient biographers had genuine freedom to arrange their material. When critics point to an event appearing earlier in Matthew and later in Luke, they are holding the text to a standard nobody in the first century used. The heart of the message is what carries. Why only these four, and not the other gospels people mention? By the time Luke wrote, other accounts of Jesus were already circulating, and Luke tells us so. Mark was already in use, and many scholars believe Matthew, Luke, and possibly Mark drew on a common written source. The four that the church preserved were kept for reliability, access to eyewitnesses, and accuracy. The apocryphal gospels came much later and read more like novels, drawing from oral tradition that had drifted over generations. The Gnostic collections attributed sayings to Jesus, but the earliest of them date to roughly 120 years after His public ministry, far too late to verify. The early church knew what it was doing. What is the best way to read a gospel? Read one all the way through before moving to another. There is a method called a harmony of the gospels that weaves all four together story by story, and it has its place, but it is hard to follow and it is not how these books were meant to be read. Each gospel was written separately, to different readers, with its own flow of thought. Reading one at a time lets you catch what makes that writer distinct. Luke was a doctor, so when you stay inside his gospel you start noticing what he noticed: the women, the healings, the people on the margins. Those details are easy to miss when you are jumping between books. What should I be looking for as I read? A few things to carry into the series. Ancient biographies had morals to their stories, setting characters up as positive or negative examples, so ask what the story is showing you about the character and nature of God. Learn to tell the difference between what Scripture describes and what it prescribes, because someone's story appearing in the Bible does not mean we are meant to copy them. And remember this one: Scripture was written for us, but it was not originally written to us. It went first to an ancient audience in a particular culture. Most of them heard it read aloud rather than reading it themselves, which is why it helps to think of them as an audience instead of readers. Before we can understand how the teachings of Jesus apply to our lives, we have to understand what they meant to the people who heard them first. Featured quote "Scripture was written for us, but it was not originally written to us. It was written to an original audience that lived a long time ago." Terms explained in this episode Genre, synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, and Luke overlap significantly, while John is distinct), harmony of the gospels, descriptive versus prescriptive, apocryphal and Gnostic gospels. Timestamps (approximate) 00:00 What is a gospel, and why start here 01:00 Gospel as a genre, and what that changes 02:00 Why the gospels are not chronological 03:20 The Abraham Lincoln analogy: ten thousand biographies, ten thousand angles 04:50 Who were these writers, and why trust them 06:40 How sayings were preserved in an oral culture 09:00 Why sequence was never the point 11:00 Word for word, Aramaic, and Greek 15:00 The freedom ancient biographers had with their material 17:30 Why only four gospels survived 19:50 How to read a gospel, and why not to jump around 21:20 Descriptive versus prescriptive 22:30 Reading versus hearing, and the original audience 25:00 Synoptic gospels explained 26:20 We learn by teaching Frequently asked questions What does the word gospel mean? It refers both to the good news about Jesus and to a genre of ancient writing. In this episode we're focused on the genre, meaning the kind of literature Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John belong to. What are the synoptic gospels? Matthew, Mark, and Luke, which overlap heavily in content and often tell the same events. John stands apart with a different structure and emphasis. Should I read the gospels in chronological order? Not for this study. We'll read Luke straight through so we can follow his particular flow of thought and notice the details that are uniquely his. When does the Luke study begin? Right after this episode. We'll start with an introduction to who Luke was and why his account matters, then move through the text at a spirit-led pace, with Luke and Acts studied together as one work.

Before we open the Gospel of Luke, there's a question worth answering: what exactly is a gospel? Most of us have read these four books without ever stopping to ask what kind of writing they are, and that one gap changes everything about how we read them. Gospel is a genre. These are ancient biographies of Jesus, written by four different men to four different audiences, and they were never meant to be read the way we read a modern news report. This episode covers why there are four, why they don't always line up, why we can trust them, and how to actually read them well.

What does the word gospel actually mean?

Gospel is a genre, and genre simply means the kind of writing a work is. The Bible contains poetry, letters, prophecy, law, and historical narrative, and each one asks to be read differently. The four gospels sit together at the front of the New Testament, and they are essentially biographies of the life of Jesus. Knowing that changes your expectations before you read a single verse.

Why are there four gospels instead of one?

Think about walking into a library and looking for a biography of Abraham Lincoln. A search on Amazon turns up more than ten thousand books about him. Some cover his presidency, some his politics, some his character, some only his childhood, some his views on the Bible, some his war years. Every one of those historians chose what to emphasize. Ancient historians worked the same way. They wrote with clear moral, political, and theological purposes, and readers were expected to draw lessons from the work. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John each had a lens, and a different audience in mind.

Can we trust the gospels?

Yes, and the reasons are worth knowing. These books were written while eyewitnesses were still alive and still holding positions of authority in the church, which means the oral tradition could be checked by people who had been there. They were written within the first two generations, while the teachings of Jesus were still fresh. And the culture itself was built for careful preservation. Students learned their teachers' sayings rigorously, taking notes and memorizing, with some repeating the previous day's lecture before getting out of bed. The disciples of Jesus treated His words that way, and many of them became the teachers passing those words on.

Why don't the gospels always match up?

This is where a lot of readers get stuck, and it usually comes from applying modern expectations to ancient writing. Three things help. First, no one in that culture expected teachings to appear in chronological sequence. Teaching was situational, the way a grandmother's saying comes back to you in the moment it fits rather than in the order she said it. Second, word-for-word repetition was not the standard. Most people could not read, so teaching passed down orally, and paraphrasing was a normal and accepted practice. On top of that, Jesus often spoke Aramaic while the gospels were written in Greek, so His words were being translated. Third, ancient biographers had genuine freedom to arrange their material. When critics point to an event appearing earlier in Matthew and later in Luke, they are holding the text to a standard nobody in the first century used. The heart of the message is what carries.

Why only these four, and not the other gospels people mention?

By the time Luke wrote, other accounts of Jesus were already circulating, and Luke tells us so. Mark was already in use, and many scholars believe Matthew, Luke, and possibly Mark drew on a common written source. The four that the church preserved were kept for reliability, access to eyewitnesses, and accuracy. The apocryphal gospels came much later and read more like novels, drawing from oral tradition that had drifted over generations. The Gnostic collections attributed sayings to Jesus, but the earliest of them date to roughly 120 years after His public ministry, far too late to verify. The early church knew what it was doing.

What is the best way to read a gospel?

Read one all the way through before moving to another. There is a method called a harmony of the gospels that weaves all four together story by story, and it has its place, but it is hard to follow and it is not how these books were meant to be read. Each gospel was written separately, to different readers, with its own flow of thought. Reading one at a time lets you catch what makes that writer distinct. Luke was a doctor, so when you stay inside his gospel you start noticing what he noticed: the women, the healings, the people on the margins. Those details are easy to miss when you are jumping between books.

What should I be looking for as I read?

A few things to carry into the series. Ancient biographies had morals to their stories, setting characters up as positive or negative examples, so ask what the story is showing you about the character and nature of God. Learn to tell the difference between what Scripture describes and what it prescribes, because someone's story appearing in the Bible does not mean we are meant to copy them.

]]> 644 What Was God Doing in the 400 Silent Years Between the Testaments? | Daily Devotional & Bible Study The Silent Years: What God Was Doing in the 400 Years Between the Old and New Testaments There are about 400 years between the last page of the Old Testament and the first page of the New. Most of us turn that page without ever noticing. Scholars call it the intertestamental period, but most people know it as the silent years, because there was no prophet speaking in Israel and no Scripture being written. And yet when you look at what was actually happening in that stretch of history, you find something that will change how you think about the silent seasons of your own life. God was not absent. He was setting a stage. Links The world of the New Testament is still standing in Rome, and our Bible Study Live group walks through it every November.

Dates and details at BibleStudyLive.org Listen ad-free, plus the full library of past series, on Patreon: patreon.com/HearingJesus Questions or prayer requests? Leave me a voicemail: SpeakPipe Why do they call it the silent years? The name comes from what was missing. There were no prophets in Israel during this period, and no books of the Bible were being written. After Malachi, the prophetic voice that had guided Israel for centuries goes quiet. But silence is not the same thing as absence. Some of the most important groundwork in redemptive history was laid in exactly this window, which is why the episode lands where it does: sometimes when God is silent, He is doing some of His best work. If no Scripture was written, how do we know what happened? We know a great deal, because plenty was being written even though none of it entered the canon of the evangelical Bible. The books of the Apocrypha, including Maccabees, Tobit, and 1 Esdras, are read in Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions and give us a real window into the period. The historian Josephus records much of it. The Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered rolled in jars in caves along the Dead Sea and first found by a young shepherd boy, were largely written during this time. And the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Old Testament, was produced in this era. How did God prepare the world for Jesus during the silence? This is where it gets remarkable. Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire and spread Greek language and Hellenistic culture across the known world, which meant that by the time Jesus came, a common language existed for the gospel to travel in. Meanwhile, rabbis rose to prominence as teachers alongside the priests, and local synagogues became places of worship, prayer, and hearing the Torah. Scripture that had once been accessible only to the elite was now within reach of ordinary people. Luke tells us Jesus went to the synagogue regularly, an institution that did not exist in the Old Testament. None of that was accidental. What was the Maccabean revolt, and where does Hanukkah come from? After Alexander died in 323 BC, his empire was divided among his generals. Under Antiochus, the Jews suffered badly. He banned core Jewish practices, seized the temple, and ordered pigs sacrificed on the altar. An elderly priest and his sons refused to comply, and their zeal sparked the Maccabean revolt beginning in 167 BC. By 164 BC the Maccabees had retaken and cleansed the temple. The eight-day celebration that followed became Hanukkah, and the Gospel of John records Jesus Himself in Jerusalem for that festival. What happened after the Maccabees won? Here is the sobering turn. The Maccabean family formed the Hasmonean dynasty, and over time the very Hellenistic influence they had been repulsed by became something they embraced. That drift sparked opposition groups like the Pharisees and the Essenes, all wrestling with the same question of how to be faithful in a Greek world. Rome eventually ended the dynasty when Pompey took Jerusalem in 63 BC. Herod the Great was named king of the Jews, ruled cruelly, and rebuilt the temple complex into the largest temple to a single deity in the world. He died in 4 BC, and scholars believe Jesus was born not far from Herod's own burial grounds. The Zealots later revolted, and the temple was destroyed in AD 70. What does this mean for my own silent season? These years were anything but silent. The political, cultural, and spiritual climate all had to be primed before Jesus walked onto the scene, and God was doing that work the entire time no one could hear Him. The question to sit with is this one: where in your own life has God been working in ways you could not see or hear? He may not have been silent at all. He may have been setting the stage. Featured quote "Sometimes when God is silent, He's doing some of His best work. Just because God is silent doesn't mean He isn't moving and acting." Scripture and sources referenced John 10:22-23 (Jesus at the Feast of Dedication), Luke 4:16 (Jesus in the synagogue), Malachi as the close of the Old Testament. Extra-biblical sources discussed include 1 and 2 Maccabees, Tobit, 1 Esdras, Josephus, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and the Septuagint.

Frequently asked questions What is the intertestamental period? It's the roughly 400-year span between the end of the Old Testament and the beginning of the New, commonly dated 400 BC to 1 BC. You may also hear it called the Second Temple period in academic settings. Are the books of the Apocrypha part of the Bible?

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices The Silent Years: What God Was Doing in the 400 Years Between the Old and New Testaments

There are about 400 years between the last page of the Old Testament and the first page of the New. Most of us turn that page without ever noticing. Scholars call it the intertestamental period, but most people know it as the silent years, because there was no prophet speaking in Israel and no Scripture being written. And yet when you look at what was actually happening in that stretch of history, you find something that will change how you think about the silent seasons of your own life. God was not absent. He was setting a stage.

Why do they call it the silent years?

The name comes from what was missing. There were no prophets in Israel during this period, and no books of the Bible were being written. After Malachi, the prophetic voice that had guided Israel for centuries goes quiet. But silence is not the same thing as absence. Some of the most important groundwork in redemptive history was laid in exactly this window, which is why the episode lands where it does: sometimes when God is silent, He is doing some of His best work.

If no Scripture was written, how do we know what happened?

We know a great deal, because plenty was being written even though none of it entered the canon of the evangelical Bible. The books of the Apocrypha, including Maccabees, Tobit, and 1 Esdras, are read in Catholic and Eastern Orthodox traditions and give us a real window into the period. The historian Josephus records much of it. The Dead Sea Scrolls, discovered rolled in jars in caves along the Dead Sea and first found by a young shepherd boy, were largely written during this time. And the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Old Testament, was produced in this era.

How did God prepare the world for Jesus during the silence?

This is where it gets remarkable. Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire and spread Greek language and Hellenistic culture across the known world, which meant that by the time Jesus came, a common language existed for the gospel to travel in. Meanwhile, rabbis rose to prominence as teachers alongside the priests, and local synagogues became places of worship, prayer, and hearing the Torah. Scripture that had once been accessible only to the elite was now within reach of ordinary people. Luke tells us Jesus went to the synagogue regularly, an institution that did not exist in the Old Testament. None of that was accidental.

What was the Maccabean revolt, and where does Hanukkah come from?

After Alexander died in 323 BC, his empire was divided among his generals. Under Antiochus, the Jews suffered badly. He banned core Jewish practices, seized the temple, and ordered pigs sacrificed on the altar. An elderly priest and his sons refused to comply, and their zeal sparked the Maccabean revolt beginning in 167 BC. By 164 BC the Maccabees had retaken and cleansed the temple. The eight-day celebration that followed became Hanukkah, and the Gospel of John records Jesus Himself in Jerusalem for that festival.

What happened after the Maccabees won?

Here is the sobering turn. The Maccabean family formed the Hasmonean dynasty, and over time the very Hellenistic influence they had been repulsed by became something they embraced. That drift sparked opposition groups like the Pharisees and the Essenes, all wrestling with the same question of how to be faithful in a Greek world. Rome eventually ended the dynasty when Pompey took Jerusalem in 63 BC. Herod the Great was named king of the Jews, ruled cruelly, and rebuilt the temple complex into the largest temple to a single deity in the world. He died in 4 BC, and scholars believe Jesus was born not far from Herod's own burial grounds. The Zealots later revolted, and the temple was destroyed in AD 70.

What does this mean for my own silent season?

These years were anything but silent. The political, cultural, and spiritual climate all had to be primed before Jesus walked onto the scene, and God was doing that work the entire time no one could hear Him. The question to sit with is this one: where in your own life has God been working in ways you could not see or hear? He may not have been silent at all. He may have been setting the stage.

(John 6:1-35) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today I share a replay of my teaching on John 6 from our Gospel of John series, as an example of what I found in the same passage we have been marking with the color method. We look at the feeding of the crowd, Jesus walking on the water, and why He told the crowd they were following Him for the bread. It all leads to a question worth asking yourself: am I following the miracle or the Miracle Worker?

]]> 644 Why Does John Mention Passover Before Feeding the 5,000? (John 6:1-15) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we mark the timing words in John 6:1-15 with purple, and one small verse about the Passover changes how we read the whole story. We talk about why the Passover points back to the exodus and the manna in the wilderness, and why the crowd called Jesus the Prophet. It is a good reminder that slowing down helps you see what you would otherwise skim past. "Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near." (John 6:4) Questions this episode answers Why does John mention the Passover in John 6? Passover remembers the night God rescued Israel from Egypt, and after that rescue He fed them bread from heaven in the wilderness. By noting that Passover was near, John frames the feeding of the five thousand as an exodus-shaped story. Jesus is showing He is the One who provides bread from heaven. Why did the crowd call Jesus the Prophet in John 6:14? In Deuteronomy 18, God promised to raise up a prophet like Moses. During Passover season the people already had Moses on their minds, so when Jesus fed them in the wilderness, they made the connection. They had the right person but the wrong idea of what He came to do, which is why they tried to make Him king by force. Why do timing words matter in Bible study? Timing words show the order of events and where a passage fits in the larger story of Scripture. Words like after, then, and already link one scene to another. Noticing them helps you read the Bible as one connected story instead of separate pieces.

]]> 653 Does God Still Do Miracles Today? (John 6:1-15) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today in Bible Study 101 we mark the supernatural in John 6:1-15 in blue, the things only God could do. The blue clusters around Jesus, while the disciples' honest math stays completely white. I also share the day 1,800 children showed up in Malawi and there was enough for every one, because God does not change. "This He was saying to test him, for He Himself knew what He was intending to do." (John 6:6) Questions this episode answers Does God still do miracles today? Yes. Scripture shows God working in signs and wonders, and the Bible also teaches that God does not change. It does not line up to read about His power and then assume none of it applies to us now. Why does John call Jesus' miracles signs? A sign points beyond itself. John uses that word on purpose so we ask what each event reveals about who Jesus is. The feeding of the 5,000 was never mainly about lunch. How do I know if something in Scripture is supernatural? Ask one question: could a person have done this on their own?

Yes. Scripture shows God working in signs and wonders, and the Bible also teaches that God does not change. It does not line up to read about His power and then assume none of it applies to us now.

A sign points beyond itself. John uses that word on purpose so we ask what each event reveals about who Jesus is. The feeding of the 5,000 was never mainly about lunch.

How do I know if something in Scripture is supernatural?

Ask one question: could a person have done this on their own? If not, it is supernatural. That includes healing and miracles, but also God speaking, sins being forgiven, and Jesus knowing what no one could know.

In today’s Wednesday Affirmations episode, Rachael leads listeners through declarations of peace, trust, and confidence grounded in Scripture. As the world feels overwhelming, these affirmations anchor the listener in God’s promises.

]]> 653 Who Does God Say He Is? (Exodus 34:6-7) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Right after the golden calf, Israel's worst betrayal, God passes in front of Moses and describes Himself in His own words. Today we look at why He leads with compassion and not power, what slow to anger and lovingkindness mean, and how the hard part about the third and fourth generation fits in. It gives us a fuller, more honest picture of who God really is. "Then the LORD passed by in front of him and proclaimed, "The LORD, the LORD God, compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness and truth;" (Exodus 34:6) Questions this episode answers What does Exodus 34:6-7 say about God? God describes Himself as compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in lovingkindness and truth. He forgives iniquity, transgression, and sin. He leads with compassion even though He had just shown His power at the Red Sea. Does God punish children for their parents' sins? Exodus 34:7 is not God blaming people for sins they did not commit. It truthfully describes how far the damage of unaddressed sin travels through a family, until someone in that line turns to God and chooses to stop it. Why is Exodus 34:6-7 quoted so often in the Bible? David, Nehemiah, Joel, and even Jonah return to this description of God. Across different centuries and situations, it became the fixed reference point for who God is.

This episode is a gentle reminder that God’s peace isn’t just a feeling: it’s a promise.

Breathe in God’s peace… and exhale your worries. This day is a gift, and no matter what’s ahead, you can trust that God is in control. His love is steady. His plans for you are good. His presence goes before you. Let these affirmations remind you to trust Him today.

]]> 664 What Bible Translation Is Best for Study? (Nehemiah 8:1-8) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we talk about why your English Bible is already a translation, and why there are so many versions to choose from. We look at Nehemiah 8, where the Levites helped God's people understand the Law, and at how one word choice about Phoebe in Romans 16 can shape what we believe.

(Nehemiah 8:8) Questions this episode answers What is the difference between a word-for-word and a thought-for-thought Bible translation? Word-for-word translations like the NASB and ESV stay close to the structure of the original Hebrew and Greek, even when the English feels stiff. Thought-for-thought translations like the NIV and NLT work out what a passage means and say it in natural English. Paraphrases like The Message retell Scripture in fresh words but are not built for careful study. Is the King James Version the only true Bible translation? No. The KJV was itself a revision of earlier English Bibles, and its translators added notes where they were unsure how to render a word. Most Christians around the world have never read Scripture in English at all, so God's Word is not tied to one English version. Which Bible translation should I use? Use the one you will actually open and understand. Many people use a word-for-word Bible like the NASB for deep study and a more readable one for everyday reading.

]]> 627 What Is Prayer, and What Do I Do When My Mind Wanders? | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today, before we start Bible Study 101, I sit down with Monika Kirkland for a conversation about prayer. We talk about what prayer actually is, why it belongs at the center of Bible study, and what to do when you don't know what to say, your mind wanders, or a prayer still feels unanswered. "strengthened with all power, according to His glorious might, for the attaining of all steadfastness and patience" (Colossians 1:11) Questions this episode answers What is prayer? Prayer is connection and communion with God, relating to Him directly instead of only hearing about Him secondhand. It is also an invitation to join what God is already doing. It is not a formality before Bible study but the relationship that study is meant to deepen. Why does my mind wander when I pray? A wandering mind is common and not a sign of failure. Instead of only forcing your focus back, notice where your mind went. Sometimes it points to a person God wants you to pray for, or to something you are holding too tightly.

]]> 653 What Do I Pray When I'm Anxious and Can't Sleep? (Psalm 143) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode we look at Psalm 143, where David is low, anxious, and likely awake at night as he turns to God. He admits his desperation and knows his only hope is God stepping in. I find his example so freeing, because it shows we can bring our deepest emotions to God and ask Him for help. "Let me hear Your lovingkindness in the morning; For I trust in You; Teach me the way in which I should walk; For to You I lift up my soul." (Psalm 143:8) Questions this episode answers Is it okay to tell God I am anxious or depressed? Yes. In Psalm 143 David tells God his spirit is overwhelmed and his heart is appalled within him. God invites us to be honest with Him, and the psalms give us words for those moments. Telling God the truth about how we feel is an act of trust, not a lack of faith. What does Psalm 143 teach about prayer? David remembers what God has done in the past, stretches out his hands to Him, and asks to hear of God's love in the morning. He also asks God to teach him the way he should walk. It is a model for praying through fear while still asking for direction. How can I find peace when I can't sleep? Psalm 143 shows David turning his restless thoughts into prayer. Instead of rehearsing the problem, he rehearses God's faithfulness and asks for God's unfailing love. Try praying verse 8 back to God as you lie down, and let Him carry what you cannot fix tonight.

]]> 614 How Should I Respond When People Hurt Me? (Psalm 140) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 140, where David is facing people who want to harm him, a situation a lot of us can relate to. Some of his response shows his humanity, and it is not always something we should copy. So we compare David's prayer with the way Jesus responded to His enemies, and we look to Jesus as our model. "I know that the LORD will maintain the cause of the afflicted And justice for the poor." (Psalm 140:12) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 140 about? Psalm 140 is David's prayer for rescue from violent and evil people who plot against him. He asks God to protect him and to bring justice. He ends with confidence that God will defend the afflicted and that the upright will live in His presence. Is it wrong to ask God to deal with people who hurt me? It is right to bring injustice to God and ask Him to act, because justice belongs to Him. David's psalm shows real emotion, and some of his words reflect his own humanity. Jesus shows us a fuller way, praying for those who hurt Him and trusting the Father to judge rightly. How did Jesus respond to His enemies? Jesus taught us to love our enemies and pray for those who persecute us. On the cross He prayed, Father, forgive them. He did not pretend the wrong was small, but He entrusted Himself to the Father who judges justly.

]]> 664 Does God Really Know and Love Me? (Psalm 139) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 139 and some powerful truths about how well God knows you.

"How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God! How vast is the sum of them! If I should count them, they would outnumber the sand."

David says God knows when he sits and when he rises and even his words before he speaks. That kind of knowing is not cold. It comes with God's care and His hand guiding us. Can I ever be too far from God? David asks where he could go from God's Spirit and answers that God is there in the heavens, in the depths, and at the far side of the sea. No place, mood, or failure puts you out of His reach. That is a comfort for anyone who feels distant from God. What does it mean to be fearfully and wonderfully made?

]]> 1092 The Table: What We're Really Starving For When people come home from a trip to Rome, the thing they remember most is rarely the famous sights. It's the people. This last episode of our Rome series goes to the table, because the early church was a table before it was a building. Luke describes believers who devoted themselves to teaching, fellowship, breaking bread, and prayer, eating in one another's homes. "Day by day continuing with one mind in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they were taking their meals together with gladness and sincerity of heart." (Acts 2:46) The word for fellowship is koinonia, a deep sharing of life and belonging to one another. Most of us are starving for that and don't even have a word for it. Whether you ever travel or not, God is calling you out of isolation and into the kind of community you were made for.

]]> 627 How Do I Pray When I Feel Stuck? (Psalm 136) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we trace the thread of redemption through Israel's history the way the psalmist does in Psalm 136. This psalm is a great model when you feel stuck in prayer, because it teaches you to praise God for how He has worked in your own story. It also points us forward to the redeeming work Jesus did on the cross. "Give thanks to the God of heaven, For His lovingkindness is everlasting." (Psalm 136:26) Questions this episode answers Why does Psalm 136 repeat the same line in every verse? Every verse ends with the truth that God's lovingkindness is everlasting. The repetition was likely sung back and forth in worship. It drives home that every part of Israel's story, from creation to rescue, flowed from God's steady love. How can Psalm 136 help my prayer life? When you do not know what to say, follow the pattern of this psalm. Name specific things God has done in your life, and after each one, thank Him for His love that lasts forever. Remembering His faithfulness often gets prayer moving again. How does Psalm 136 point to Jesus? The psalm celebrates God rescuing His people from slavery and bringing them home. That story of rescue reaches its fullness in Jesus, who redeemed us from sin through the cross. His love is the clearest proof that God's love endures forever.

This psalm is a great model when you feel stuck in prayer, because it teaches you to praise God for how He has worked in your own story. It also points us forward to the redeeming work Jesus did on the cross.

"Give thanks to the God of heaven, For His lovingkindness is everlasting." (Psalm 136:26)

Questions this episode answers

Why does Psalm 136 repeat the same line in every verse?

Every verse ends with the truth that God's lovingkindness is everlasting. The repetition was likely sung back and forth in worship. It drives home that every part of Israel's story, from creation to rescue, flowed from God's steady love.

How can Psalm 136 help my prayer life?

When you do not know what to say, follow the pattern of this psalm. Name specific things God has done in your life, and after each one, thank Him for His love that lasts forever. Remembering His faithfulness often gets prayer moving again.

]]> 1254 When the Grave Isn't the Final Word: Hope in the Roman Catacombs Just outside the old city of Rome are miles of narrow tunnels called the catacombs, the cemetery of the early church. Christians weren't hiding there. They weren't allowed to bury their dead inside the city, and they didn't want cremation because they believed the body would rise again. So they dug down and laid their loved ones to rest. On those walls they carved hope. The fish, ichthys, stood for Jesus Christ, God's Son, Savior. The Good Shepherd carried a lamb on His shoulders. And the anchor came straight from Hebrews. "This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast." (Hebrews 6:19) I also share about losing my mom this year, and the moment in my grief when the Lord said, She's here and she's whole. The early church refused to let the grave have the last word. Because Jesus rose, we don't have to either. Timestamps 00:34 What the catacombs really are 04:53 The symbols on the walls: the fish 06:44 The anchor and the Good Shepherd 10:31 Refusing to let the grave have the last word 14:39 Losing my mom, and she's here and she's whole Did early Christians hide in the catacombs? That's mostly the movie version. The catacombs were burial grounds, though believers did gather there to worship and remember their dead. Going down into the catacombs is one of the stops on our Rome trip. Tracing a fish carved into the stone with your own finger changes how you think about both life and death.

Christians weren't hiding there. They weren't allowed to bury their dead inside the city, and they didn't want cremation because they believed the body would rise again. So they dug down and laid their loved ones to rest. On those walls they carved hope. The fish, ichthys, stood for Jesus Christ, God's Son, Savior. The Good Shepherd carried a lamb on His shoulders. And the anchor came straight from Hebrews. "This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast." (Hebrews 6:19) I also share about losing my mom this year, and the moment in my grief when the Lord said, She's here and she's whole. The early church refused to let the grave have the last word.

(Psalm 130) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study We all face seasons where we are living with the consequences and chaos of sin, and waiting for God to restore us can feel hard. Today we study Psalm 130 and talk about the peace God offers while we are still in the middle of that restoration. His mercy is real, and so is His redemption. "I wait for the LORD, my soul does wait, And in His word do I hope." (Psalm 130:5) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 130 about? Psalm 130 is a cry to God from the depths. The writer admits no one could stand if God kept a record of sins, but he rejoices that forgiveness is found with God. Then he chooses to wait and hope in the Lord. How do I wait on God after I have made a mistake? Start by confessing honestly and receiving God's forgiveness, as Psalm 130:4 shows. Then keep your hope anchored in His Word while the consequences work themselves out. Waiting is not wasted time, because God is at work in it. Does God forgive and restore after sin? Yes. Psalm 130 says that with the Lord there is forgiveness and abundant redemption. Through Jesus our sins are fully forgiven, even when some consequences take time to heal.

(Psalm 129) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 129 and the mix of emotions Israel felt after living through community trauma. Their humanity is not that different from ours, and I am thankful God gave us this example in Scripture. I pray this Psalm reminds you that God wants you to bring Him everything, even the hard things. "The LORD is righteous; He has cut in two the cords of the wicked." (Psalm 129:4) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 129 about? Psalm 129 remembers how Israel was afflicted again and again from its youth, yet its enemies never won.

The Psalms are full of honest emotion, including grief and anger over injustice. God invites us to pour out our hearts to Him, and that is far better than hiding what we feel. How does God help us heal from shared trauma? Psalm 129 shows God's people remembering both their pain and His faithfulness.

The ash that destroyed it also preserved it, so when you walk its stone streets you're walking through the world Paul knew. Painted walls, shops, food counters, even graffiti scratched by ordinary people. Pompeii also asks a hard question. The people there thought they had time. Bread was still in the ovens. In a matter of hours, the city was gone. "Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away."

I end this week grounded in God’s faithfulness.

Lamentations 3:23: “Great is Your faithfulness.”

Closing Prayer:

God, thank You for walking with me through this week. Help me to see Your faithfulness clearly and to release what I need to let go of. I trust that You were present in ways I noticed and in ways I didn’t. I place this week back into Your hands. Amen.

]]> 664 The Worst Room in Rome: Paul's Last Words from the Mamertine Prison There's a prison in Rome that looks like nothing from the street, and it may be one of the most moving places you'll ever stand. The Mamertine began as a cistern carved into rock, with a hole in the ceiling as the only way in or out. Rome held its condemned there before execution, and church tradition says both Peter and Paul spent their final days in that room. A spring still rises in the floor. By tradition, Peter used that water to baptize his guards and the other prisoners. New birth on one side of the room, and a drain carrying the dead to the river on the other. It's the gospel in stone. It's also where Paul likely wrote 2 Timothy, his last letter. He asks for his cloak because he's cold. He names the friends who left him. And then he writes this: "But the Lord stood with me and strengthened me." (2 Timothy 4:17) God didn't only meet Paul after he got out. He met him at the very bottom, and He'll meet you there too. Can you visit the Mamertine Prison today? Yes. It sits beneath the Church of San Giuseppe dei Falegnami near the Roman Forum. Is 2 Timothy Paul's last letter? It's widely understood to be his final letter, written during his second imprisonment in Rome. Our Rome group goes down into the Mamertine together.

Many scholars believe the hymn Jesus and His disciples sang after the Last Supper came from these psalms (Matthew 26:30). Why does God care so much for the vulnerable?

Psalm 113 praises God as high above the nations, yet He stoops down to look on heaven and earth. He raises the poor from the dust and gives the barren woman a home. It shows a God who is both exalted and near.

What are the Hallel psalms?

Psalms 113 through 118 are known as the Egyptian Hallel. They were sung at major Jewish feasts, including Passover. Many scholars believe the hymn Jesus and His disciples sang after the Last Supper came from these psalms (Matthew 26:30).

Why does God care so much for the vulnerable?

God is compassionate by nature, and He defends the poor, the widow, and the orphan all through Scripture. Jesus showed this same heart in His ministry. We reflect God when we care for people in need.

]]> 627 Is There a Proverbs 31 Man in the Bible? (Psalm 112) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Many of us have studied the godly woman of Proverbs 31, but did you know she has a male counterpart in Psalm 112? Today we study it together. Many of its traits apply to both men and women, but the first hearers would have heard it as a picture of a godly man. "Light arises in the darkness for the upright; He is gracious and compassionate and righteous." (Psalm 112:4) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 112 about? Psalm 112 describes the blessed life of a person who fears the Lord and delights in His commands. This person is generous, gracious, compassionate, and steady in hard times. It pairs closely with Psalm 111, which praises God's own character. How is Psalm 112 like Proverbs 31? Both passages are Hebrew acrostics, with lines that follow the alphabet. Both describe a person whose fear of the Lord shows up in daily life, work, and generosity. Psalm 112 paints this picture with a man in view. What does it mean to not fear bad news? Psalm 112:7 says the righteous will not fear bad news because their heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord. This is not pretending hard things away. It is a settled trust that God is in control.

]]> 664 Can You Still Visit the Places in the New Testament? The Hidden Room Under Rome Most of us read the New Testament as if the places in it are gone for good. But many of them are still standing, especially in Rome, and you can walk into them. Three floors under a church in Rome there's a small room with a dirt floor that almost no one visits. Church and oral tradition connect it to the house of Luke, where Paul stayed during his two years of house arrest and where many believe the book of Acts was finished. There's no deed or hard proof. But I've watched the Holy Spirit move in that room again and again, with healing, calling, and people hearing clearly from the Lord. The first time I crossed the threshold, I heard Him say, This is the reason for all of it. "And he stayed two full years in his own rented quarters and was welcoming all who came to him, preaching the kingdom of God and teaching concerning the Lord Jesus Christ with all openness, unhindered." (Acts 28:30-31) Where was the book of Acts written? Many scholars believe Luke finished Acts in Rome during Paul's house arrest, which is why the book ends there so suddenly.

]]> 653 What Do I Do With Anger When I'm Falsely Accused? (Psalm 109) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at the hard emotions that come when someone accuses us falsely. What do we do with the anger, and how do we work through it? Psalm 109 shows us how David brought his raw feelings straight to God instead of taking matters into his own hands. "Help me, O LORD my God; Save me according to Your lovingkindness." (Psalm 109:26) Questions this episode answers Is it wrong to feel angry when someone lies about me? Anger at injustice is a normal human response, and the Bible does not pretend we never feel it. Ephesians 4:26 says to be angry and yet not sin. The key is what we do with that anger, and Psalm 109 shows David taking it to God in prayer. Why does Psalm 109 sound so harsh? Psalm 109 is an imprecatory psalm, a prayer where David asks God to deal with his enemies. He is honest about his pain, but he leaves judgment in God's hands rather than seeking revenge himself. That honesty gives us permission to bring our real feelings to God. How should a Christian respond to false accusations? Bring the hurt to God first, as David does when he cries, help me, O Lord. Trust that God sees the truth and will defend you in His time. Romans 12:19 reminds us that vengeance belongs to the Lord, which frees us from carrying it.

]]> 589 How Do I Praise God When I Feel Low? (Psalm 108) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study It can feel easy to praise God when life is good, but what about when our emotions are heavy? Today we look at Psalm 108 as an example of seeking God to restore us. Being truthful about our emotions helps us make room for God to do His restoring work. "My heart is steadfast, O God; I will sing, I will sing praises, even with my soul." (Psalm 108:1) Questions this episode answers Should Christians acknowledge negative emotions to God? Yes. The Psalms are full of honest prayers about fear, grief, and frustration. God already knows what we feel, and bringing it to Him is an act of trust, not a lack of faith. What is Psalm 108 about? Psalm 108 is a psalm of David that joins together parts of Psalm 57 and Psalm 60. It opens with a steady heart of praise and then asks God for help and victory. It shows that praise and honest need can live side by side in the same prayer. How can I praise God when I don't feel like it? Start like David, by choosing to fix your heart on who God is rather than how you feel. Praise is a decision before it is a feeling. As you name your emotions and remember God's faithfulness, He often restores your joy along the way.

He may let us follow our own path, but there are consequences for our choices. Today we look at Israel's choices in Psalm 106 and see how God stays faithful because of His great love, and why His plan is always better than ours. "Nevertheless He looked upon their distress When He heard their cry; And He remembered His covenant for their sake, And relented according to the greatness of His lovingkindness." (Psalm 106:44-45) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 106 about? Psalm 106 retells Israel's history of rebellion, from the Red Sea to the wilderness and into the land. Again and again the people forgot God and went their own way. Yet the psalm shows God remembering His covenant and showing mercy when they cried out. Does God let us make our own choices? Yes. God often allows us to walk our own path, and Psalm 106 shows that real consequences follow. But His goal is always to draw us back to Him, not to abandon us.

]]> 664 What Pilgrimage Really Means in the Bible (And Why We're Going to Rome) Why would anyone travel across the world to meet with God when He's already right there with them? It's a fair question, and one I've heard for years. In this episode I start a six-week series on our Bible Study Live trips to Rome by looking at something the modern church has mostly set down: the spiritual practice of pilgrimage. In Scripture, pilgrimage is a journey taken on purpose to meet God. The Hebrew idea is tied to the word for foot, because it was something you did with your body. We walk through Abraham's call to go in Genesis 12, the three pilgrimage feasts in Deuteronomy 16, and the Songs of Ascent that families sang on the road up to Jerusalem. Jesus walked that road every year as a boy (Luke 2:41-42). And Psalm 84 says God blesses the people whose hearts are set on pilgrimage, even before they arrive. "How blessed is the man whose strength is in You, in whose heart are the highways to Zion!" (Psalm 84:5) What does pilgrimage mean in the Bible? A journey taken on purpose with the goal of meeting God. It isn't tourism, and it isn't about earning His presence. Like kneeling or fasting, what we do with our bodies shapes what happens in our hearts. What are the Songs of Ascent? Psalms 120 through 134, sung by pilgrims on their way up to Jerusalem. Read in order, they move from distress to worship. This is the first stop in our Rome series, where I take you behind the scenes of the trip. Every November our group walks the roads Paul and Peter walked, and pilgrimage is the heart of why we go. Bible Study Live is a small-group Bible study trip with Rachael Groll.

Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Why would anyone travel across the world to meet with God when He's already right there with them? It's a fair question, and one I've heard for years.

In this episode I start a six-week series on our Bible Study Live trips to Rome by looking at something the modern church has mostly set down: the spiritual practice of pilgrimage. In Scripture, pilgrimage is a journey taken on purpose to meet God. The Hebrew idea is tied to the word for foot, because it was something you did with your body.

We walk through Abraham's call to go in Genesis 12, the three pilgrimage feasts in Deuteronomy 16, and the Songs of Ascent that families sang on the road up to Jerusalem. Jesus walked that road every year as a boy (Luke 2:41-42). And Psalm 84 says God blesses the people whose hearts are set on pilgrimage, even before they arrive.

"How blessed is the man whose strength is in You, in whose heart are the highways to Zion!" (Psalm 84:5)

What does pilgrimage mean in the Bible?

A journey taken on purpose with the goal of meeting God. It isn't tourism, and it isn't about earning His presence. Like kneeling or fasting, what we do with our bodies shapes what happens in our hearts.

What are the Songs of Ascent?

Psalms 120 through 134, sung by pilgrims on their way up to Jerusalem. Read in order, they move from distress to worship.

This is the first stop in our Rome series, where I take you behind the scenes of the trip. Every November our group walks the roads Paul and Peter walked, and pilgrimage is the heart of why we go.

]]> 615 How Do I Hear God in a New Season? An Invitation to Go Deeper | Daily Devotional & Bible Study This week we take a short break from our Psalms series to talk about hearing God in a different environment. I share lessons I learned about hearing His voice in community and why relationships matter in our walk with the Lord. I also share from my heart about what God has in store this fall, with a gentle challenge to lean into this next season. Questions this episode answers Can a change of setting help me hear God? God can speak anywhere, but stepping out of our normal routine often quiets the noise. Jesus Himself often slipped away to quiet places to pray (Luke 5:16). A new setting can make us more attentive to His voice. How does community help me hear God's voice? Other believers can confirm what God is saying, point us back to Scripture, and pray with us. Hearing God is personal, but it was never meant to happen in isolation. What does it mean to go deeper with God? Going deeper means moving past routine faith into real relationship. It looks like more honest prayer, slower time in the Word, and a willingness to say yes when He leads.

Respond quickly when He speaks, confess sin, and remember His faithfulness. Hebrews 3 and 4 quote Psalm 95 to urge believers to listen today.

]]> 653 Is God's Discipline a Sign of His Love? (Psalm 94) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 94 and two sides of how God deals with His people, His discipline and His blessing. When life feels hard or correction stings, it is easy to forget that God is still acting in love. I pray this episode helps you see His discipline as care, and see Him as your safe place. "But the LORD has been my stronghold, And my God the rock of my refuge." (Psalm 94:22) Questions this episode answers Why does God discipline His children? Scripture says the Lord disciplines those He loves, the way a good father trains a child (Hebrews 12:6). Psalm 94:12 even calls the person God disciplines blessed. His correction is not rejection. It is meant to shape us and draw us back to Him. What does Psalm 94 teach about injustice? Psalm 94 is a cry to God about the wicked who seem to get away with harm. The writer remembers that God sees, hears, and will judge rightly. That truth lets us bring our anger and hurt to Him instead of carrying it alone. How can God be my refuge when life is hard? The psalmist says that when his foot was slipping, God's lovingkindness held him up (Psalm 94:18). When anxious thoughts pile up, God's comfort brings joy to the soul (Psalm 94:19).

]]> 589 Does God Rule Over My Past, Not Just My Future? (Psalm 93) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Many of us find it easy to trust God with today or tomorrow, but harder to believe He was in control of our past. Today we study Psalm 93 and the God whose throne was set up long ago. I pray it helps you see that He reigns over your past, your present, and your future. "Your throne is established from of old; You are from everlasting." (Psalm 93:2) Questions this episode answers What is the main message of Psalm 93? Psalm 93 declares that the Lord reigns. He is clothed with majesty, His throne has stood from of old, and He is mightier than the roaring sea. It is a short psalm that calls us to trust the King who never changes. Can I trust God with my past? Yes. God is from everlasting (Psalm 93:2), so nothing in your story happened outside His sight. He does not cause sin, but He can redeem what was painful and work it for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28). What do the floods in Psalm 93 mean? The floods lifting up their voice picture chaos and powers that seem out of control. The psalm answers that the Lord on high is mightier than the waves of the sea (Psalm 93:4). Whatever is roaring in your life, He is greater. Links Psalm 93 pictures God as mightier than the waves, and there is something special about reading it near the ocean on our contemplative Bible Study Live retreat in Maui.

]]> 627 How Do I Praise God When Life Is Hard? (Psalm 92) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 92 and how praise and thanksgiving go hand in hand. We ask how we can praise God in hard seasons, and we see that those hard times are often where He shows Himself faithful. Praise grows out of what He has done in our lives. "It is good to give thanks to the LORD And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;" (Psalm 92:1) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 92 about? Psalm 92 is titled a song for the Sabbath day. It celebrates giving thanks to God and declaring His lovingkindness in the morning and His faithfulness by night (Psalm 92:2). It also contrasts the short life of the wicked with the righteous who flourish like a palm tree. How can I praise God when I am struggling? Praise does not deny pain. It remembers who God is and what He has already done. Hard seasons give God room to show His faithfulness, and those stories become the reason for our praise later. What does it mean to flourish like a palm tree? Psalm 92:12-14 says the righteous will flourish like a palm and grow like a cedar, still bearing fruit in old age. People planted in God's presence keep growing and stay full of life in every season.

]]> 551 How Do I Put On the Armor of God? (Ephesians 6:10-18) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study This is a contemplative prayer episode where we meditate on the armor of God in Ephesians 6. We remember that standing firm is not about trying harder, but about trusting God to equip, protect, and strengthen us. If you feel tired or under pressure, this is a place to return to His strength and peace. "Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of His might." (Ephesians 6:10) Questions this episode answers What are the pieces of the armor of God? Ephesians 6:14-17 names the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, feet fitted with the gospel of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God. Paul also calls us to pray at all times in the Spirit (Ephesians 6:18). What does it mean to stand firm in the Lord? Standing firm means staying steady in faith instead of running or giving up. Paul tells us to be strong in the Lord and in His might, not our own. God supplies what we need to hold our ground. Who are Christians fighting against? Ephesians 6:12 says our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against spiritual forces of wickedness. That reminds us people are not the enemy. We face spiritual resistance with God's armor and with prayer. Links Paul wrote Ephesians as a prisoner, and on our November Bible Study Live trip to Rome we visit the Mamertine prison and remember believers who stood firm in hard places.

]]> 653 Is God Still Faithful When His Promises Seem Delayed? (Psalm 89) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Waiting on God is hard, especially when life looks like the opposite of what He promised. Today we study Psalm 89, written when David's royal line seemed to be falling apart. We learn that God is working even when we cannot see Him, and Jesus is the proof that He keeps His word. "I will sing of the lovingkindness of the LORD forever; To all generations I will make known Your faithfulness with my mouth." (Psalm 89:1) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 89 about? Psalm 89 celebrates God's covenant with David, the promise that his line and throne would last forever (Psalm 89:3-4).

The New Testament shows that Jesus is the Son of David who reigns forever (Luke 1:32-33). What looked like the end of David's line was not the end of God's plan. In Christ, the promise is kept in a bigger way than anyone expected. What should I do when God's promises seem delayed?

Today we look at King David in Psalm 86, facing something hard and letting his faith speak louder than his fear. Being afraid does not disqualify you from faith, and sometimes faith and fear can even work together. "But You, O Lord, are a God merciful and gracious, Slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness and truth." (Psalm 86:15) Questions this episode answers Is it a sin to be afraid as a Christian? Feeling afraid is part of being human, and even David cried out to God in fear. What matters is where we take our fear. Psalm 56:3 says, when I am afraid, I will put my trust in You.

In this contemplative prayer episode we reflect on Peter and John in Acts 4, whose boldness came from being with Jesus, and we ask the Holy Spirit for that same courage. "Now as they observed the confidence of Peter and John and understood that they were uneducated and untrained men, they were amazed, and began to recognize them as having been with Jesus."

The leaders noticed that these ordinary men had been with Jesus. Their courage came from His presence and power, not their own education or status. What is the difference between confidence and courage in Christ? Confidence often rests on our own skills or personality. Courage in Christ rests on God's presence, even when we feel weak or afraid. It is something the Holy Spirit gives as we stay close to Jesus. How can I get spiritual boldness? The early church prayed for boldness, and God answered by filling them with the Spirit (Acts 4:29-31). Spend time with Jesus in prayer and His Word. Boldness grows out of knowing Him.

]]> 1922 Why Does God Care So Much About Justice for the Weak? (Psalm 82) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 82 and ask why justice matters so much to God. Speaking up for the weak and the needy is a theme that runs all through Scripture. Caring about what God cares about is part of being faithful to Him, and it shapes how we treat the people around us every day. "Vindicate the weak and fatherless; Do justice to the afflicted and destitute." (Psalm 82:3) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 82 about? Psalm 82 pictures God standing in judgment over those who were supposed to rule with justice but did not. He calls them to defend the weak and the fatherless and to rescue the needy. It reminds us that God holds people accountable for how they treat the vulnerable. Does God expect Christians to care about justice? Yes. From the Law to the prophets to the teaching of Jesus, Scripture shows that God cares deeply for the poor and oppressed. We reflect His heart when we speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves. How can I live out Psalm 82:3 in everyday life?

We look at what this story teaches about love that brings people to Jesus, and about healing that starts with forgiveness. If you are carrying a broken relationship or longing for healing, this is a space to bring that to Him. "Seeing their faith, He said, 'Friend, your sins are forgiven you.'" (Luke 5:20) Questions this episode answers Why did Jesus forgive the paralyzed man's sins before healing him? Jesus addressed the man's deepest need first. Forgiveness restored his relationship with God, and the physical healing showed that Jesus has authority to forgive sins. It reminds us that Jesus cares about the whole person, soul and body. What can we learn from the friends who lowered the man through the roof? Their love was active and determined. When the crowd blocked the way, they found another way to get their friend to Jesus. Their faith is part of the story, which shows how our love and prayers can carry others toward Christ. How can I pray for someone who needs healing?

]]> 1312 How Do I Pray When Life Is Hard? (Psalm 80) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 80 and learn how to pray when life is hard. There is an old idea that we finally look up to God once we hit rock bottom. God's heart is that we would turn to Him sooner, because He is the only way through those hard seasons. "O LORD God of hosts, restore us; Cause Your face to shine upon us, and we will be saved." (Psalm 80:19) Questions this episode answers What is the main prayer of Psalm 80? Psalm 80 repeats a simple cry: restore us, make Your face shine on us, and we will be saved. Israel was hurting and knew only God could bring them back. The repeated line teaches us to keep asking God for restoration. Is it okay to ask God for help when I am struggling? Yes. The Psalms are full of honest prayers from people in pain.

]]> 2283 How Do I Pray for Others When I Feel Helpless? (Psalm 79) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 79, a powerful example of praying on behalf of others. When it seems like there is nothing we can do, we can still pray and remind God of His promises for the people we love. Israel was in a desperate place spiritually, politically, and economically, and this psalm shows us how to pray in times like that. "Help us, O God of our salvation, for the glory of Your name; And deliver us and forgive our sins for Your name's sake." (Psalm 79:9) Questions this episode answers What is intercessory prayer? Intercessory prayer is praying on behalf of someone else. In Psalm 79, Asaph pleads with God for his whole nation. Christians are called to pray for others, and Jesus Himself intercedes for us. Why does Psalm 79 appeal to God's name? The psalmist asks God to act for the glory of His name. That means asking God to show who He is by keeping His promises. We can pray the same way, asking God to be true to His character in the lives of people we love. What can I do when a situation feels hopeless? Pray. It may feel small, but Scripture shows that prayer matters to God. Like Psalm 79, bring the need to Him plainly and remind Him of His promises.

(Psalm 78) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 78, which covers five generations and shows God's mercy even when Israel was unfaithful. It is a reminder of what can happen when we keep testing God's mercy. It also shows a God who still cares for His people, and His patience calls us to obedience today. "And they remembered that God was their rock, And the Most High God their Redeemer." (Psalm 78:35) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 78 about?

]]> 1375 How Do I Trust God When He Doesn't Act Quickly? (Psalm 75) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 75 and how God steps in on behalf of His people. When we pray for God to act fast and He doesn't, frustration can settle in. This psalm helps us trust God's justice and His timing, even when it is slower than we would like. "But God is the Judge; He puts down one and exalts another." (Psalm 75:7) Questions this episode answers What does Psalm 75 teach about God's justice? Psalm 75 says God chooses the right time to judge with fairness. He is the one who brings down and lifts up. His justice is certain, even if it is not immediate. Why doesn't God act right away when I pray? Scripture shows that God's timing is often different from ours. He sees the whole picture and works for good purposes we may not understand yet. Waiting can grow our trust and character. How can I handle frustration while waiting on God? Tell God how you feel, the way the psalmists did. Remind yourself that He is the Judge and He has not forgotten. Keep doing what is right while you wait.

God cannot and will not be silent about sin forever, and that can be hard to live through. This psalm reminds us that God's discipline in our lives comes from His love for us. "Yours is the day, Yours also is the night; You have prepared the light and the sun." (Psalm 74:16) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 74 about?

(Psalm 68) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Psalm 68 is sometimes called a difficult psalm, but it holds some of the clearest pictures of what burdens God's heart. Today we look at His care for the marginalized, the widows, the orphans, and the prisoners. My prayer is that you will see your own calling to care about the people God cares about. "A father of the fatherless and a judge for the widows, Is God in His holy habitation." (Psalm 68:5) Questions this episode answers Why is Psalm 68 called a difficult psalm?

He makes a home for the lonely and leads prisoners out. God delights in caring for people others overlook. How can I care for the people God cares about? Look for the lonely, the widowed, and the forgotten in your own church and town. A meal, a visit, or an invitation can reflect God's heart.

Religious leaders brought her to Jesus to test Him and asked if she should be stoned. Jesus said whoever was without sin should throw the first stone, and one by one they left. Then He told her He did not condemn her and to go and sin no more.

Did Jesus excuse her sin?

No. Jesus refused to condemn her, but He also told her to sin no more. His grace forgives us and also calls us into a new way of living.

How can I let go of shame from my past?

Bring it to Jesus and receive His forgiveness. Romans 8:1 says there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Let His word about you be louder than old accusations.

]]> 2242 What Does It Mean to Thirst for God? (Psalm 63) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 63 and what it means for our souls to thirst for God. We were made for relationship with Him, yet we often try to fill that longing with money, careers, status, or other things that never satisfy. This episode shows how God longs to meet that desire in us. "O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly; my soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You, in a dry and weary land where there is no water." (Psalm 63:1) Questions this episode answers What does 'my soul thirsts for You' mean in Psalm 63? It describes a deep longing for God's presence, the way a thirsty person in a dry land longs for water. David wrote this psalm in the wilderness of Judah, so the picture was very real to him. It reminds us that only God can truly satisfy the soul. Why do we try to fill our longing for God with other things? Every person is made for relationship with God, but sin pulls us toward substitutes that promise satisfaction. Wealth, success, approval, and even addictions can feel like they meet the need for a while. Psalm 63:3 points us back to Him, saying His lovingkindness is better than life. How can I grow my desire for God? David sought God earnestly, remembered Him through the night, and praised Him with his lips. Simple habits like time in Scripture, prayer, and worship turn our hearts toward Him. As we taste His goodness, our thirst for Him grows.

]]> 1947 How Do I Find Real Rest for My Soul? (Psalm 62) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In Psalm 62, David points us toward soul rest, which is different from physical rest. Many of us sleep and still feel worn out inside. Today we talk about what soul rest is and how we can find the deep, restoring rest in God that keeps us going. "My soul waits in silence for God only; from Him is my salvation." (Psalm 62:1) Questions this episode answers What is soul rest in the Bible? Soul rest is an inner quiet and trust that comes from depending on God rather than ourselves. In Psalm 62, David's soul waits in silence for God only, because his salvation comes from Him. It is a rest that can stay with us even when life stays busy. How is soul rest different from physical rest? Physical rest restores the body through sleep and breaks. Soul rest settles our fears, our striving, and our need to control by placing them in God's hands. We can be physically rested and still restless inside, which is why Psalm 62 points us to God alone. What does it mean that God is my rock in Psalm 62? David calls God his rock, his salvation, and his stronghold, so he will not be greatly shaken. A rock stays steady when everything around it moves.

]]> 1988 Where Can I Go When My Heart Feels Faint? (Psalm 61) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at the prayer in Psalm 61 and the tension of living in this world without being of this world. Like many people in Scripture, we can feel weary and far from home. David's prayer reminds us that God protects His people and that there is safety in His shadow. "From the end of the earth I call to You when my heart is faint; lead me to the rock that is higher than I." (Psalm 61:2) Questions this episode answers What does 'lead me to the rock that is higher than I' mean? David is asking God to bring him to a place of safety he cannot reach on his own. A high rock was a place of refuge above danger. It is a humble prayer that admits we need God to carry us there. What does it mean to be in the world but not of the world? In John 17, Jesus prayed that His followers would live in the world without belonging to its values. That can create real tension and even loneliness for believers. Psalm 61 shows that we can bring that weariness to God, who is our shelter. How does God protect His people? Psalm 61 calls God a refuge, a tower of strength, and a shelter under His wings. That does not mean we never face hardship. It does mean we are never outside His care, and we can call to Him from anywhere. Links Psalm 61 is the kind of prayer we linger over at our contemplative Bible study retreat in Maui, where a small group of women takes time to rest in God's shelter together.

(Luke 24:1-12) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this first episode of Living the Resurrection Life, we reflect on the women at the empty tomb in Luke 24. When Jesus rose from the dead, He made a way for us to live with hope again, even in places that feel like endings. This contemplative prayer episode invites you to slow down and remember that God is still working. "Why do you seek the living One among the dead? He is not here, but He has risen." (Luke 24:5-6) Questions this episode answers What happened when the women went to the tomb in Luke 24? The women came early on the first day of the week with spices for Jesus' body. They found the stone rolled away and the tomb empty, and two men in dazzling clothing told them Jesus had risen, just as He said. The women then went and told the apostles. What does it mean to live the resurrection life? It means living like the resurrection is true in our own stories, not only on Easter Sunday. Because Jesus is alive, grief, disappointment, and uncertainty do not get the last word. We can face hard seasons with real hope because the One who conquered death is with us. How can I have hope when life feels hopeless? The women at the tomb thought the story was over, but God was already at work. In John 11:25, Jesus called Himself the Resurrection and the Life. Our hope rests on a living Savior, so even what looks like an ending can become a beginning.

In Psalm 60, David reminds us that God is faithful even when we don't understand what He is doing. Today we look at how that truth can change the way we walk through hard moments. "Through God we shall do valiantly, and it is He who will tread down our adversaries." (Psalm 60:12) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 60 about? Psalm 60 comes from a time of military defeat, when it felt like God had rejected His people. David is honest about that pain, then turns to God's promises and asks for help.

Seasons of chaos can make God feel distant, and Scripture does not hide that feeling. Psalm 60 shows David bringing that honest question straight to God. Feeling far from God is not the same as being abandoned, because His faithfulness does not depend on our feelings. How do I trust God when I don't understand?

]]> 1737 Is It Wrong to Pray for Justice Against Evil? (Psalm 58) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study As we go through the Psalms, we see David wrestle with strong emotions. In Psalm 58 he prays for God to act against evil on behalf of the righteous. It may sound harsh, but today we talk about why it matters that we serve a just God who will deal with evil. "And men will say, 'Surely there is a reward for the righteous; surely there is a God who judges on earth!'" (Psalm 58:11) Questions this episode answers Why does Psalm 58 sound so harsh? Psalm 58 is an imprecatory psalm, a prayer asking God to judge evil. David uses vivid language because he is grieved by injustice from those who should rule rightly. Rather than taking revenge himself, he hands that anger to God. Is it okay for Christians to pray psalms that ask for judgment? These prayers are part of inspired Scripture, so they teach us something true about God's justice. Jesus also calls us to love our enemies, so we pray them with a desire for God's justice, not personal revenge. Romans 12:19 reminds us that vengeance belongs to the Lord. Will God really judge evil? Yes. Psalm 58:11 says there is a reward for the righteous and a God who judges on earth. We may not see justice right away, but God sees every wrong and will make things right.

Our situations may not be that intense, but we all know what it feels like to run from something. Today Psalm 57 gives us a picture of how to respond to God in those moments. "Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let Your glory be above all the earth." (Psalm 57:5) Questions this episode answers What was happening when David wrote Psalm 57? The heading says David wrote Psalm 57 when he fled from Saul into the cave. He was hiding for his life, yet he wrote a song of trust and praise. It shows that worship can rise even from a dark place.

Our situations may not be that intense, but we all know what it feels like to run from something. Today Psalm 57 gives us a picture of how to respond to God in those moments.

"Be exalted above the heavens, O God; let Your glory be above all the earth." (Psalm 57:5)

Questions this episode answers

What was happening when David wrote Psalm 57?

The heading says David wrote Psalm 57 when he fled from Saul into the cave. He was hiding for his life, yet he wrote a song of trust and praise. It shows that worship can rise even from a dark place.

What does it mean to take refuge in the shadow of God's wings?

In Psalm 57:1, David says he will take refuge in the shadow of God's wings until destruction passes by. The picture is of a bird sheltering its young. It means we can hide in God's care until the storm is over.

How can I praise God when I'm afraid?

David says, 'My heart is steadfast,' before his circumstances change. Praise turns our eyes from the danger to God's glory and love. It doesn't deny the problem, but it puts God in His rightful place above it.

]]> 1382 What Did Jesus Mean When He Said 'It Is Finished'? (John 19:30) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study On this Good Friday, we talk about what Jesus really meant when He said the words, 'It is finished.' Those words hold the heart of the gospel. Understanding them helps us rest in what Jesus has already done for us on the cross. "Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, 'It is finished!' And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit." (John 19:30) Questions this episode answers What does 'It is finished' mean? The Greek word is tetelestai, which carries the idea of a task completed or a debt paid in full. Jesus was declaring that the work He came to do, paying for sin, was complete. Nothing more needs to be added to it. Why is Good Friday called good? It was the darkest day in history, when the sinless Son of God was crucified. Yet through His death, Jesus took the penalty for our sin and opened the way to God. What looked like defeat became the greatest good for us. What does the cross mean for my everyday faith? Because Jesus finished the work, we don't have to earn God's love or forgiveness. We can come to Him with our failures and receive grace. That frees us to live from His love instead of from fear.

]]> 576 How Do I Handle Betrayal by Someone Close? (Psalm 55) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Most of us have felt the sting of betrayal and the pull to get revenge or seek justice. God understands that pain, and we remember that Jesus Himself was betrayed by Judas. Today we look at Psalm 55, where David feels these same emotions and shows us how to cast our burdens on the Lord. "Cast your burden upon the LORD and He will sustain you; He will never allow the righteous to be shaken." (Psalm 55:22) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 55 about? Psalm 55 is David's cry after being betrayed by a close companion. He says it was not an enemy who hurt him but a friend he once walked with in the house of God. The psalm moves from deep anguish to trust in God. What does it mean to cast your burden on the Lord? To cast something is to throw it off and hand it over. Psalm 55:22 invites us to give God the weight we cannot carry, including the hurt of betrayal. He promises to sustain us, and 1 Peter 5:7 echoes this because He cares for us. How should Christians respond to betrayal? We can be honest with God about our pain, as David was. We leave justice in God's hands instead of seeking revenge.

(Matthew 26) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we walk through Thursday of Holy Week, from the Last Supper to the Garden of Gethsemane and the betrayal of Jesus. These moments show us the heart of Jesus on the night before the cross. They also help us see why His sacrifice still matters for our faith today. "While they were eating, Jesus took some bread, and after a blessing, He broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said, 'Take, eat; this is My body.'" (Matthew 26:26) Questions this episode answers What happened on Thursday of Holy Week? Jesus shared the Passover meal with His disciples and gave them the bread and the cup as signs of His body and blood. Afterward He went to Gethsemane to pray, and there Judas betrayed Him with a kiss. Many churches call this day Maundy Thursday. Why did Jesus pray in Gethsemane? Jesus knew the suffering ahead and poured out His heart to the Father. He asked if the cup could pass from Him, yet He surrendered, saying, 'Not as I will, but as You will.' His prayer shows us how to bring our anguish to God and still trust Him. What does the Last Supper mean for Christians today?

But we have a God who overcomes evil, and He longs for us to come to Him when we feel attacked. Today's psalm is a prayer we can use as an example when we face something similar.

But we have a God who overcomes evil, and He longs for us to come to Him when we feel attacked. Today's psalm is a prayer we can use as an example when we face something similar.

"Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul." (Psalm 54:4)

Questions this episode answers

What is the story behind Psalm 54?

The heading says David wrote it when the Ziphites told Saul that David was hiding among them. People nearby gave him up to his enemy. The psalm is his short, honest prayer for God to save and vindicate him.

How can I use Psalm 54 as a prayer?

It follows a simple pattern: call on God, tell Him the problem, declare your trust in Him, and thank Him ahead of time. You can pray it in your own words when you feel under attack. It keeps your eyes on God instead of on the people against you.

Does God help us when people turn against us?

Yes. Psalm 54:4 says God is our helper and the sustainer of our soul. He may not remove every hard situation right away, but He holds us up through it.

]]> 1677 Why Did Judas Betray Jesus, and Why Does God Seem Silent? (Matthew 26) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Wednesday of Holy Week and what it really meant when Judas betrayed Jesus for 30 pieces of silver. We also talk about what happens in our own lives when it seems like God is silent. This episode will help you hold on when heaven feels quiet. "'What are you willing to give me to betray Him to you?' And they weighed out thirty pieces of silver to him." (Matthew 26:15) Questions this episode answers Why did Judas betray Jesus for 30 pieces of silver? Matthew 26:14-16 says Judas went to the chief priests and asked what they would give him, and they paid him thirty pieces of silver. John 12:6 tells us he was a thief who took from the money box. Zechariah 11:12-13 had spoken of this same price long before. Why is Wednesday of Holy Week sometimes called Silent Wednesday? The Gospels record little about what Jesus did on that day, so many call it Silent Wednesday. Behind the scenes, though, Judas was making his deal. It reminds us that God's plan is still moving even when we can't see it. What should I do when God seems silent? Keep showing up in prayer and in His Word, even when you don't sense an answer. Silence does not mean absence, and God is often working in ways we can't see yet. The cross and empty tomb that followed this quiet day prove that He keeps His promises.

]]> 516 Why Do I Feel Dread When There's Nothing to Fear? (Psalm 53) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study We have all had moments of feeling overwhelmed with dread. It is part of being human, yet we often overlook the ways God wants to step in for us. Today we look at Psalm 53 and see how God moves when we least expect it to rescue and restore us. "There they were in great fear where no fear had been." (Psalm 53:5) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 53 about? Psalm 53 opens with, 'The fool has said in his heart, There is no God.' It describes people who live as if God does not exist and the corruption that follows. It ends with a longing for God to bring salvation and restore His people. Why is Psalm 53 so similar to Psalm 14? Psalm 53 and Psalm 14 are nearly the same, with a few differences, especially in verse 5. Scripture often repeats truths it wants us to remember. The repetition stresses how much every one of us needs God's rescue. What does 'in great fear where no fear had been' mean? It describes enemies suddenly gripped by terror without a visible cause, because God Himself was acting. It shows that God can turn a situation around when we least expect it.

Today we walk through Matthew 21 to 23, where the religious leaders question His authority and Jesus answers with parables and bold, public truth. We see that Jesus is loving but not passive, and that His correction is meant to bring us closer to Him. "And He said to him, 'You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.'" (Matthew 22:37) Questions this episode answers What happened on Tuesday of Holy Week? Jesus returned to the temple to teach, and the chief priests and elders challenged His authority.

Why did the religious leaders feel threatened by Jesus? Jesus exposed religion that looked good on the outside but kept people from truly knowing God.

]]> 1798 What Do People Get Wrong About Palm Sunday? (Matthew 21:1-11) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Palm Sunday is one of the best known moments in the Bible, but it is also one of the most misunderstood. Today we walk through Matthew 21 and Mark 11, from the crowd shouting 'Hosanna' to the fig tree and the cleansing of the temple. If you have ever felt like God is moving but things still feel unfinished, this episode will help you make sense of that tension. "Hosanna to the Son of David; Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest!" (Matthew 21:9) Questions this episode answers What did the crowd expect on Palm Sunday? The crowd recognized Jesus as King and shouted 'Hosanna,' which means 'save us.' Many hoped He would bring quick rescue from Rome. Jesus came as a humble King on a donkey, fulfilling Zechariah 9:9, with a deeper rescue in mind. Why did Jesus curse the fig tree? In Mark 11, Jesus found a fig tree full of leaves but with no fruit, and He cursed it. It was a prophetic picture of religion that looks good on the outside but bears no real spiritual fruit. Right after, He cleared the temple, which was busy but had lost its purpose as a house of prayer. What does it mean when God is working but life still feels unfinished? Holy Week shows that God's plan often unfolds in ways we don't expect. The crowd wanted quick results, but Jesus was heading toward the cross and the resurrection.

]]> 968 How Do I Come Back to God After I've Sinned? (Psalm 51) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study We have all had times when we have messed up. Sin separates us from God and has real consequences, but God longs to restore us and create in us a clean heart. Today we look at how David came to God in his brokenness in Psalm 51 and how God invites us to come to Him with our sin. "Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me." (Psalm 51:10) Questions this episode answers What is the background of Psalm 51? The heading says David wrote it after the prophet Nathan confronted him about his sin with Bathsheba. David had committed adultery and arranged for her husband's death. Psalm 51 is his honest prayer of repentance. What does 'create in me a clean heart' mean? David knew he could not fix his own heart, so he asked God to make it new. The Hebrew word for create is the same word used in Genesis 1, pointing to something only God can do. It is a prayer for inner change, not just forgiveness. Will God forgive me if I repent? Yes. Psalm 51:17 says God will not despise a broken and contrite heart. 1 John 1:9 promises that if we confess our sins, He is faithful to forgive us and cleanse us. His desire is restoration, not rejection. Links Coming to God just as we are is part of the quiet, honest time in the Psalms we share at our contemplative Bible study retreat in Maui.

]]> 3181 How Does God Feel About Hypocrisy? (Psalm 50) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 50 and what happens when spiritual routines take the place of a real relationship with God. It's easy to settle into habits and quietly stop pursuing Him. This Psalm shows us what God really wants from His people. "The Mighty One, God, the LORD, has spoken, And summoned the earth from the rising of the sun to its setting." (Psalm 50:1) Questions this episode answers What is Psalm 50 about? Psalm 50 pictures God calling His people to account like a judge in a courtroom. He makes clear that He doesn't need their sacrifices; He wants thankful hearts and honest lives. It warns against religion without relationship. Does God care more about rituals or relationship? God gave His people practices of worship, but He always wanted their hearts. In Psalm 50:14 He asks for a sacrifice of thanksgiving. Our habits of faith are good when they draw us closer to Him, not when they replace Him. How do I know if my faith has become a routine? One sign is going through the motions without expecting to meet God. Another is saying the right words while ignoring what He asks of us, which Psalm 50:16-17 warns about.

What does 'as the deer pants for the water' mean?

The image in Psalm 42:1 is of a thirsty deer searching for water to survive. The writer says his soul needs God in the same way. It describes a deep longing that only God can fill.

Why doesn't the world satisfy us?

We were made for relationship with God, so anything less leaves us thirsty. Jesus said whoever drinks the water He gives will never thirst (John 4:14). Our longing is meant to lead us back to Him.

]]> 1757 Is Sickness Always Caused by Sin? (Psalm 38) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study There's a real debate in the church today. Some believe sickness is always a result of sin, and others believe it can come simply because we live in a fallen world. Today we look at David's situation in Psalm 38 and ask what Scripture actually says. "Do not forsake me, O LORD; O my God, do not be far from me! Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!" (Psalm 38:21-22) Questions this episode answers Is all sickness caused by sin? No. In Psalm 38 David connects his own suffering to his sin, but Scripture doesn't make that a rule for everyone. In John 9:1-3, Jesus says a man's blindness was not caused by his sin or his parents' sin. Much sickness comes from living in a broken world. What should I do if I think my sin is affecting me? Do what David did and bring it openly to God. Psalm 38:18 shows him confessing his sin, and 1 John 1:9 promises that God forgives when we confess. Then lean on Him for help and healing.

"Do not forsake me, O LORD; O my God, do not be far from me! Make haste to help me, O Lord, my salvation!" (Psalm 38:21-22)

Questions this episode answers

Is all sickness caused by sin?

No. In Psalm 38 David connects his own suffering to his sin, but Scripture doesn't make that a rule for everyone. In John 9:1-3, Jesus says a man's blindness was not caused by his sin or his parents' sin. Much sickness comes from living in a broken world.

What should I do if I think my sin is affecting me?

Do what David did and bring it openly to God. Psalm 38:18 shows him confessing his sin, and 1 John 1:9 promises that God forgives when we confess. Then lean on Him for help and healing.

]]> 2211 What Is Hesed, God's Steadfast Love? (Psalm 36:5-6) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Psalm 36 and the Hebrew word hesed, God's loyal and steadfast love. God did not stop being involved after He finished creating the world. He is still present and still sustaining us through His love, and that changes how we walk through an ordinary day. "Your lovingkindness, O LORD, extends to the heavens, Your faithfulness reaches to the skies." (Psalm 36:5) Questions this episode answers What does the Hebrew word hesed mean?

It can be hard to hold both a longing for justice and a call to forgive. David shows us how to bring those raw feelings to God and still praise Him while we wait for Him to make things right. "And my tongue shall declare Your righteousness And Your praise all day long." (Psalm 35:28) Questions this episode answers Is it okay to ask God for justice? Yes.

]]> 1838 How Can I Stop Feeling Anxious About the News? (Psalm 33:20-22) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study War, disease, floods, and droughts fill the headlines, and it is easy to let anxiety take over. Today we look at David's example in Psalm 33 and the hope we have in God's unfailing love. That love gives us a steady place to stand when the news keeps getting worse. "Our soul waits for the LORD; He is our help and our shield." (Psalm 33:20) Questions this episode answers What does the Bible say about anxiety over world events? Psalm 33 reminds us that the Lord's plans stand firm forever while the plans of nations fail (Psalm 33:10-11). Jesus also tells us not to worry, because our Father knows what we need (Matthew 6:25-34). How can Christians respond differently to bad news? We can grieve and pray without being ruled by fear.

Psalm 29 shows David speaking to that same feeling. Today we look at how the God David worshiped is the God we serve, and He is more powerful than the enemy even when it does not feel that way.

"The LORD will give strength to His people; The LORD will bless His people with peace." (Psalm 29:11)

Questions this episode answers

What is Psalm 29 about?

Psalm 29 describes the voice of the Lord thundering over the waters, breaking cedars, and shaking the wilderness. It shows God's power over all creation and ends with Him giving strength and peace to His people.

Is the enemy winning in the world today?

It can look that way, but Scripture says the Lord sits as King forever (Psalm 29:10). Jesus has already overcome the world (John 16:33), and evil does not get the final word.

How can God's power give me peace?

Because God reigns, we do not have to carry the weight of the world. Psalm 29:11 says the Lord blesses His people with peace.

Today we look at Psalm 25 and David's example of seeking God. We talk about how you can hear God's voice more clearly as you make decisions.

"Make me know Your ways, O LORD; Teach me Your paths." (Psalm 25:4)

Questions this episode answers

How does God guide our decisions?

God guides us through His Word, prayer, the Holy Spirit, and wise counsel. Psalm 25:9 says He leads the humble in justice and teaches the humble His way.

What should I do while I wait for direction?

Keep seeking God and obeying what you already know. David prays, "For You I wait all the day" (Psalm 25:5).

Does God speak to people today?

Yes. Jesus said His sheep hear His voice (John 10:27). God speaks most clearly through Scripture, and anything we sense from Him will line up with His Word.

]]> 2604 Why Does God Care About Us? (Psalm 8) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Psalm 8 is a poetic reminder of God's creation of the world and of people in Genesis. Today we look at the special role David says we have in God's kingdom and His unique care and love for us. "What is man that You take thought of him, And the son of man that You care for him?" (Psalm 8:4) Questions this episode answers How is Psalm 8 connected to Genesis? Psalm 8 echoes Genesis 1, where God creates people in His image and gives them care over creation. David marvels that the Creator of the heavens would think of us. What does Psalm 8 say about human worth? David says God made people a little lower than God and crowned them with glory and majesty. Our worth comes from being made by Him and for Him. Is Psalm 8 about Jesus? Hebrews 2 applies Psalm 8 to Jesus, who became human and was crowned with glory and honor. Jesus shows us what humanity was meant to be.

]]> 1427 How Was Jesus Proclaimed King Before He Was Born? (Psalm 2) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we study Psalm 2, the first of the Messianic Psalms. We see Jesus proclaimed King long before He was born, and we notice how God speaks in the language of the people He is addressing. It is a beautiful picture of a God who pursues His people right where they are. "I will surely tell of the decree of the LORD: He said to Me, 'You are My Son, Today I have begotten You.'" (Psalm 2:7) Questions this episode answers What is a Messianic Psalm? A Messianic Psalm is a psalm that points forward to the Messiah, Jesus. Psalm 2 speaks of God's anointed King and His Son, and the New Testament applies these words to Jesus in Acts 13:33 and Hebrews 1:5. How does Psalm 2 point to Jesus? Psalm 2 describes the nations raging against the Lord and His Anointed while God installs His King on Zion. The early church prayed this psalm in Acts 4 when they faced opposition. It shows that Jesus' reign was God's plan all along. What does Psalm 2 teach about how God pursues people?

]]> 1852 What Does It Mean to Meditate on God's Word? (Psalm 1) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study As we start our new series in the Psalms, we look at what Psalm 1 says about meditating on God's Word. We ask how Scripture changes us, whether our lives should look different because of it, and how we can be intentional about hearing God's voice more clearly. "But his delight is in the law of the LORD, And in His law he meditates day and night." (Psalm 1:2) Questions this episode answers What does it mean to meditate on God's Word? Biblical meditation means slowly thinking over Scripture, repeating it, and letting it shape how we live. Psalm 1 describes a person who delights in God's law and thinks on it day and night. It is less about emptying the mind and more about filling it with truth. What is the main message of Psalm 1? Psalm 1 contrasts two paths, the way of the righteous and the way of the wicked. The person rooted in God's Word is like a tree planted by streams of water that bears fruit in its season. The other path is like chaff that the wind blows away. How does reading the Bible change my life? When we spend time in Scripture, God uses it to renew our minds and grow our faith. Over time our choices, priorities, and reactions begin to reflect Him. It sets us apart through relationship, not rules alone.

]]> 597 How Does Jesus Meet Our Fear and Doubt? (John 20:19-31) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at the fear and doubt the disciples felt after the resurrection and how Jesus met them right in the middle of it. He stepped into their locked room with peace, purpose, and the Holy Spirit. We also look at Thomas and see that Jesus does not condemn our doubt. He meets us there and gives us what we need to believe. "but these have been written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing you may have life in His name." (John 20:31) Questions this episode answers Why did Jesus say 'Peace be with you' to the disciples? The disciples were hiding behind locked doors because they were afraid. Jesus' greeting was more than a hello. It carried the idea of shalom, a complete peace and restoration that only the risen Jesus can give. Was Thomas wrong to doubt? Thomas wanted to see for himself, and Jesus met him with the evidence he needed, inviting him to touch His wounds. Jesus still called him to believe. His response shows that doubt brought to Jesus can lead to deeper faith. What did Jesus mean when He breathed on the disciples? In John 20:22, Jesus breathed on them and said, 'Receive the Holy Spirit.' He was sending them out just as the Father had sent Him.

(John 20:1-18) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode we stand with Mary Magdalene outside the empty tomb, grieving and without hope, until Jesus calls her by name. We talk about meeting Jesus in seasons when we feel lost or overwhelmed, and how God is often nearer than we think. An encounter with the risen Jesus moves us from despair to purpose and sends us out to share hope. "Jesus said to her, 'Mary!' She turned and said to Him in Hebrew, 'Rabboni!' (which means, Teacher)." (John 20:16) Questions this episode answers Why didn't Mary Magdalene recognize Jesus at first? Mary was weeping and did not expect to see Jesus alive, so she thought He was the gardener. Grief can cloud our view of what God is doing. The moment Jesus spoke her name, she knew Him.

God is our rock, and when we rest in Him, we will not be shaken.

In today’s Wednesday Affirmations episode, Rachael leads listeners through declarations of peace, trust, and confidence grounded in Scripture. As the world feels overwhelming, these affirmations anchor the listener in God’s promises. From surrendering anxiety to trusting God’s timing, each statement is followed by a full Bible verse designed to renew faith and calm the heart. This episode is a gentle reminder that God’s peace isn’t just a feeling: it’s a promise.

Breathe in God’s peace… and exhale your worries. This day is a gift, and no matter what’s ahead, you can trust that God is in control. His love is steady. His plans for you are good. His presence goes before you. Let these affirmations remind you to trust Him today.

]]> 572 What Does the Cross Teach Us About Grief and Trust? (John 19) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we sit with John 19 and the weight of Jesus' suffering and crucifixion. We talk about grief, the situations we cannot control, and how Jesus' obedience and calm authority show us how to trust God when nothing makes sense. This episode invites you to surrender what you can't carry and look for God's purpose in heavy seasons. "Therefore when Jesus had received the sour wine, He said, 'It is finished!' And He bowed His head and gave up His spirit." (John 19:30) Questions this episode answers What did Jesus mean when He said 'It is finished'? The Greek word tetelestai means completed or paid in full. Jesus was declaring that the work the Father gave Him, paying for our sin, was done. Nothing needs to be added to what He accomplished on the cross. Did Pilate have power over Jesus? In John 19:11, Jesus told Pilate he would have no authority over Him unless it had been given from above. Even during the trial, God was in control. His plan to redeem us was unfolding through events that looked like defeat. How can I trust God when I feel powerless? Jesus entrusted Himself to the Father in great suffering, and He still cared for His mother from the cross. We can follow His example by surrendering control and timing to God.

]]> 559 How Do I Choose Faith Over Fear When Obedience Costs Me? (John 18) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode I share a time in Kenya when I felt caught between fear and faith, and we walk through Jesus' arrest, Peter's denial, and Jesus before Pilate in John 18. We see Jesus' calm authority in the middle of betrayal, and we learn that following Him will stretch us and reshape us. His grace is there for every believer who steps out in faith. "So Jesus said to Peter, 'Put the sword into the sheath; the cup which the Father has given Me, shall I not drink it?'" (John 18:11) Questions this episode answers Why did Peter deny Jesus? Peter was afraid. In a tense moment, self-protection took over and he denied knowing Jesus three times. Jesus knew this would happen and still chose Peter, which shows how big His grace is. What does it mean that Jesus' kingdom is not of this world? When Pilate questioned Him, Jesus said His kingdom is not of this world (John 18:36). His authority does not come from earthly power or armies. He is King in a way that rules hearts and lasts forever. Does following Jesus mean I will be safe from trouble? Following Jesus does not exempt us from danger or betrayal, and John 18 shows Jesus Himself facing both. But He is with us in it. We can let Him defend us instead of trying to defend ourselves.

]]> 533 What Does It Mean to Ask in Jesus' Name? (John 16) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode we talk about the ache of goodbyes and how the disciples felt as Jesus prepared to leave them. Jesus doesn't ignore their fear. He promises the Holy Spirit and a joy no one can take away. We also look at what it really means to ask in Jesus' name and how surrender opens the door to peace. "Until now you have asked for nothing in My name; ask and you will receive, so that your joy may be made full." (John 16:24) Questions this episode answers What does it mean to ask in Jesus' name? Asking in Jesus' name is not a phrase we tack onto the end of a prayer. It means praying in line with His character and His will, out of a relationship with Him. As we abide in Him, our requests begin to reflect His heart. Why did Jesus say it was better for Him to go away? In John 16:7, Jesus said that if He went away, He would send the Helper, the Holy Spirit. The Spirit guides us into truth, comforts us, and lives within every believer. That is why His leaving was for our good. How can I have peace in hard times? Jesus told His disciples they would have tribulation in the world, but to take courage because He has overcome the world (John 16:33).

]]> 559 Why Does God Prune Us? (John 15:1-11) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode we look at Jesus' picture of the vine and the branches in John 15. I share what I have learned from pruning grapevines to show how God carefully removes what keeps us from growing. Staying connected to Jesus is what produces lasting fruit and joy, even when pruning feels uncomfortable. "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing." (John 15:5) Questions this episode answers What does it mean to abide in Christ? To abide means to remain or stay connected. In John 15, Jesus says we can't bear fruit apart from Him. Abiding is a daily relationship of trusting, listening, and obeying. Why does God prune us? John 15:2 says the Father prunes every branch that bears fruit so it will bear more fruit. Pruning can feel painful, but it removes what hinders our growth. It is a sign of His care, not His rejection. What fruit is Jesus talking about in John 15? Fruit is what grows from a life connected to Jesus, including love, joy, obedience, and prayers that bring glory to God. It grows naturally as we stay close to Him over a lifetime.

Questions this episode answers

What happened on the Bible Study Live trip to Italy?

In this episode I share how God met our group in Italy with physical and spiritual healing and renewal. It was a reminder that God still moves when His people gather around His Word.

Why is the Hearing Jesus podcast studying the Psalms?

The Psalms help us reset our spiritual rhythms. They teach us how to pray, lament, praise, and trust God in every season. That is why we are starting a new series in the Psalms.

How can I pray for a ministry I care about?

Pray for protection, wisdom, and strength for the people leading it, and for spiritual covering as they follow God's call. Prayer is one of the most important ways to support what God is doing.

]]> 533 How Do I Handle Betrayal Like Jesus Did? (John 13:18-38) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at John 13:18-38, where Jesus is betrayed by Judas and warns Peter that he will deny Him. We talk about the hurt of broken trust, how God was not surprised by any of it, and how grace makes room for restoration after failure. If someone has let you down, or you have let God down, there is a path back. "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another." (John 13:34) Questions this episode answers How did Jesus respond to Judas' betrayal? Jesus knew Judas would betray Him, yet He still shared the meal and washed his feet. He showed love and restraint instead of revenge. His response shows us how to face betrayal without letting bitterness rule us. Can God use betrayal for good? Jesus said the betrayal fulfilled Scripture (John 13:18), so it was not outside God's plan. God did not cause Judas to sin, but He worked through that dark moment to bring about the cross and our salvation. He can bring good out of our painful stories too. Is there restoration after I fail God like Peter did? Yes. Peter denied Jesus three times, but Jesus later restored him and gave him work to do (John 21:15-17).

We talk about what that act meant in its culture, how leadership in God's kingdom looks different from the world's, and why serving in hidden places still matters. It is a practical invitation to ask, am I serving in a way that reflects Him? "If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet." (John 13:14) Questions this episode answers Why did Jesus wash the disciples' feet? Foot washing was a job for the lowest servant, yet Jesus did it Himself. He was modeling the humble love He wanted His followers to show each other (John 13:15). It also pointed to the deeper cleansing He gives through the cross. What does servant leadership mean for Christians? In God's kingdom, greatness is measured by service, not status. Jesus, the Lord and Teacher, took the lowest place. Our influence grows as we serve others with humility. Does serving matter when no one notices? Yes. Much of Jesus' example happened in a quiet room with a small group.

"If I then, the Lord and the Teacher, washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet." (John 13:14)

Questions this episode answers

Why did Jesus wash the disciples' feet?

Foot washing was a job for the lowest servant, yet Jesus did it Himself. He was modeling the humble love He wanted His followers to show each other (John 13:15). It also pointed to the deeper cleansing He gives through the cross.

What does servant leadership mean for Christians?

In God's kingdom, greatness is measured by service, not status. Jesus, the Lord and Teacher, took the lowest place. Our influence grows as we serve others with humility.

Does serving matter when no one notices?

Yes. Much of Jesus' example happened in a quiet room with a small group. God sees hidden faithfulness, and Jesus promised that those who live this out will be blessed (John 13:17).

]]> 559 What Does It Mean to Go All In With Jesus? (John 12:20-50) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at John 12:20-50, where Jesus talks about a grain of wheat that must die to bear fruit. We ask what it really means to surrender to Him, not just enough to stay out of trouble, but enough to change how we live. When we let go of comfort and pride, we find the freedom and abundant life He offers. "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit." (John 12:24) Questions this episode answers What does the grain of wheat in John 12:24 mean? Jesus was first speaking about His own death, which would bring life to many. He also applies it to us in the next verses: when we stop clinging to our own way, God brings real fruit from our lives. Dying to self leads to new life. Is believing in Jesus enough, or do I need to obey too? Saving faith is more than agreeing with facts. In John 12:42-43 some leaders believed but would not follow Jesus openly because they loved human approval. True belief shows up in trust and obedience. What is the cost of following Jesus? Jesus says whoever serves Him must follow Him (John 12:26). That can cost comfort, pride, and control. But He promises that the Father will honor those who serve Him.

Catherine Mota's Story of Hope | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today I sit down with Catherine Mota, who grew up in poverty in the Dominican Republic without her biological mother. She shares how the Compassion sponsorship program gave her love, support, and a future, and how God was at work through the people who invested in her.

(John 12:12-19) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at Jesus' entry into Jerusalem in John 12:12-19, and yes, I tell the story of bringing a donkey to church. We talk about Passover, why the donkey pointed to a King of peace, and why the crowd expected a political rescuer instead. It is a call to follow Jesus for who He really is, even when that is not the popular choice. "Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your King is coming, seated on a donkey's colt." (John 12:15) Questions this episode answers Why did Jesus ride a donkey on Palm Sunday? Riding a donkey fulfilled Zechariah 9:9, which said Israel's King would come humble and riding on a donkey. A donkey was a sign of peace, not war. Jesus was showing what kind of King He is. What do the palm branches mean? Palm branches were a symbol of victory and national hope. The crowd waved them and shouted Hosanna, which is a cry for God to save. They wanted deliverance, but Jesus came to bring a deeper salvation. Why did the crowd turn on Jesus later? Many in the crowd were excited about His miracles and hoped He would overthrow Rome. When He did not meet their political hopes, their enthusiasm faded.

(John 12:1-11) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at John 12:1-11, where Mary pours costly perfume on Jesus' feet and Judas criticizes her. I share about a season when my family faced financial struggle and obedience felt risky. We talk about wholehearted devotion, why God's opinion matters more than anyone else's, and how He sees the heart behind our worship. "Therefore Jesus said, 'Let her alone, so that she may keep it for the day of My burial.'" (John 12:7) Questions this episode answers Why did Mary anoint Jesus with perfume? Mary's act was worship that came from her love for Jesus. The perfume was very costly, and she gave it freely. Jesus said it pointed ahead to His burial. Why did Judas object to Mary's gift? Judas said the perfume should have been sold for the poor. John tells us he said this because he was a thief, not because he cared (John 12:6). Criticism of worship sometimes comes from a heart that is not right. What if others think my devotion to God is too much? Mary was criticized, but Jesus defended her.

]]> 572 Why Did Jesus Wait to Raise Lazarus? (John 11) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we walk through the story of Lazarus in John 11 and the hard question of why Jesus waited. We see Him weep with Mary and Martha, call Lazarus out of the grave, and declare that He is the resurrection and the life. If you are waiting on God right now, this episode will help you trust His timing and believe He is still at work. "Jesus said to her, 'I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies,'" (John 11:25) Questions this episode answers Why did Jesus wait two days before going to Lazarus? Jesus said the sickness was for the glory of God so that the Son of God would be glorified (John 11:4). His delay was not a lack of love, since the text says He loved Martha, Mary, and Lazarus. God's timing often looks slow to us but serves a bigger purpose. Why did Jesus weep if He knew He would raise Lazarus? Jesus wept because He truly felt the grief of His friends (John 11:35). It shows that He enters into our sorrow with compassion. Knowing the ending does not make the pain unimportant to Him. What does it mean that Jesus is the resurrection and the life? It means Jesus has power over death, both now and in eternity. Those who believe in Him will live even if they die. His life also brings hope and new beginnings into our everyday struggles.

]]> 559 How Do I Recognize the Good Shepherd's Voice? (John 10) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we walk through John 10, where Jesus calls Himself the Good Shepherd. We look at what shepherding meant in His world and why His care for us is personal, not distant. If you want to hear God's voice more clearly, this episode shows how that grows through relationship and trust, not pressure or performance. "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me;" (John 10:27) Questions this episode answers Why does Jesus call Himself the Good Shepherd? In John 10:11 Jesus says the good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. A shepherd knew, protected, and led his flock. Jesus cares for us in that same close and costly way. How can I recognize God's voice? Jesus says His sheep hear His voice and follow Him (John 10:27). Sheep learn their shepherd's voice by spending time with him. We learn to recognize Jesus through Scripture, prayer, and walking with Him daily. What is the abundant life Jesus promises in John 10:10? Abundant life is not mainly about comfort or success. It is life rooted in Jesus, full of His presence, peace, and purpose. The thief comes to steal and destroy, but staying close to the Shepherd protects that life.

]]> 572 What Did Jesus Write in the Dirt? (John 8:1-11) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we look at the moment in John 8 when Jesus bends down and writes in the dirt while a crowd waits to condemn a woman. We walk through the main ideas scholars have about what He wrote, but we spend even more time on what His silence and posture said to the accusers. This scene invites us to pause, look at our own hearts, and let His mercy shape how we see sin and judgment. "But when they persisted in asking Him, He straightened up, and said to them, "He who is without sin among you, let him be the first to throw a stone at her."

Your Questions on Sex, Tithing, and Purpose | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today I answer some of the questions you have sent in, including whether premarital sex is a sin, why tithing matters, and how to find your purpose. We look at what Scripture says, and we also talk about how God's forgiveness is open to anyone who sincerely seeks it. God's love does not shame us. It changes us. "Marriage is to be held in honor among all, and the marriage bed is to be undefiled; for fornicators and adulterers God will judge." (Hebrews 13:4) Questions this episode answers Does the Bible say premarital sex is a sin? Yes. Scripture places sex within the covenant of marriage as part of God's design, and it calls sex outside of marriage sin. At the same time, God offers full forgiveness to anyone who turns to Him. Is tithing still important for Christians today? Tithing is a biblical principle that shows our trust in God as the one who provides. Giving back to Him is an act of worship, not a way to earn His love. How do I find my purpose as a Christian? Every believer is called to know God and make Him known.

]]> 597 What Is the Difference Between Passion and Romance? (Song of Solomon) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode we talk about the difference between passion that fades and the lasting love God designed. Real fulfillment in a relationship is built on admiration, respect, and a shared life with God, not on chasing the next emotional high. We also look at how that deep craving we feel is really a longing for God Himself. "Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant," (1 Corinthians 13:4) Questions this episode answers What is the difference between passion and romance in the Bible? Passion can be a strong feeling that comes and goes. The love shown in Scripture is steady and is built on respect, commitment, and care for the other person over time. Can sex fulfill our deepest needs? Sex is a good gift from God within marriage, but it was never meant to be the ultimate answer. Our deepest longing is for God, and only He can fill it.

]]> 542 What Does the Bible Say About Desire in Marriage? (Song of Solomon) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study In this episode we look at the mutual delight and desire between husband and wife in Song of Solomon. Honoring each other's needs and building emotional and spiritual closeness reflect God's design for marriage. Real fulfillment comes from love that gives, not love that only takes. "I am my beloved's, And his desire is for me." (Song of Solomon 7:10) Questions this episode answers Is sexual desire in marriage godly? Yes. Song of Solomon celebrates desire between a husband and wife as a good gift from God. Within marriage, it is meant to be enjoyed with love and respect. How can couples honor each other's needs? Talk openly about what each of you needs and listen without judgment. When both people give out of love instead of obligation, the relationship grows stronger. What does mutual respect look like in marriage? It means valuing your spouse's needs as much as your own. Respect shows up in how you speak, how you listen, and how you put effort into the relationship.

]]> 597 What Is the Difference Between Love and Lust? (Song of Solomon) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study Today we talk about the difference between love and lust, and why real love can never be forced or earned through physical intimacy. Many young people make choices hoping to find love and acceptance, and those choices can bring real pain. God's grace still brings healing, and our worth is found in who we are in Christ. "I adjure you, O daughters of Jerusalem, By the gazelles or by the hinds of the field, That you do not arouse or awaken my love Until she pleases." (Song of Solomon 2:7) Questions this episode answers What is the difference between love and lust in the Bible? Love seeks the good of the other person and is patient. Lust seeks to take for itself. Scripture warns against stirring up love before the right time. Can physical intimacy make someone love you? No. Love cannot be forced or bought with physical intimacy. Those choices often lead to hurt rather than the love a person was hoping for. Can God heal regret from past sexual choices? Yes. God's grace reaches every part of our story. When we bring our regret to Jesus, He forgives, restores, and reminds us of our worth in Him.

In this episode, Rachael Groll explores how easy it is to chase what God can do for us instead of simply wanting Him. Looking at John 6:36–59, she unpacks why Jesus calls Himself the Bread of Life and what that means for our faith today. Rather than focusing on miracles or quick answers, Rachael helps listeners refocus their hearts on the miracle worker Himself: inviting them to pause, reflect, and ask, “Am I seeking His hand, or His heart?”

Takeaways

We live in a world that gets so captivated by the miracle worker.

Sometimes we forget about the miracle worker.

This passage invites us to wrestle with that question.

We should shift our focus from what he can give us to who he is.

Understanding the identity of the miracle worker is crucial.

Focusing on gifts can distract us from the giver.

Wrestling with questions is part of faith.

The identity of the miracle worker is more important than the miracles.

Miracles can captivate but should not define our faith.

Faith is about relationship, not just gifts.

Takeaways

whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life

has crossed over from death to life

a time is coming and has now come when the dead will hear

those who have done what is good will rise to live

those who have done what is evil will rise to be condemned

he has granted the son also to have life in himself

he has given authority to judge because he is the son of man

Do not be amazed at this

a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice

the dead will hear the voice of the son of God

In today’s Wednesday Affirmations episode, Rachael leads listeners through declarations of peace, trust, and confidence grounded in Scripture. As the world feels overwhelming, these affirmations anchor the listener in God’s promises. From surrendering anxiety to trusting God’s timing, each statement is followed by a full Bible verse designed to renew faith and calm the heart. This episode is a gentle reminder that God’s peace isn’t just a feeling—it’s a promise.

 

Today’s daily affirmations are for peace and trust in God’s plan. I will say the statement, then pause so you can repeat it after me. Then I’ll share the Scripture reference where it comes from.

In today’s Wednesday Affirmations episode, Rachael leads listeners through declarations of peace, trust, and confidence grounded in Scripture. As the world feels overwhelming, these affirmations anchor the listener in God’s promises. From surrendering anxiety to trusting God’s timing, each statement is followed by a full Bible verse designed to renew faith and calm the heart. This episode is a gentle reminder that God’s peace isn’t just a feeling—it’s a promise.

]]> 572 How Do I Know A Prophetic Word is True? Knowing God’s Voice, Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional How Do I Know A Prophetic Word is True? Knowing God’s Voice, Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional In this episode, Rachael addresses the complexities of discerning prophetic words and understanding God's voice. She emphasizes the importance of testing prophetic messages against scripture, the role of the Holy Spirit in providing guidance, and the need for spiritual maturity in navigating these experiences. Rachael also discusses the dangers of false prophecies and encourages listeners to seek healing from past hurts while remaining open to the gifts of prophecy that can edify and comfort the church. This podcast devotional is a companion to Knowing God’s Voice, Grab Your Printed Copy Here! ☆Have a question for Rachael? Ask it here: Ask Rachael a Question Takeaways Discerning prophetic words is crucial for Christians. God's voice aligns with scripture and never contradicts it. Testing prophetic words is a necessary practice. The Holy Spirit provides guidance and confirmation. Not everyone claiming to speak for God is genuine.

In this episode, Rachael explores the story of King Josiah, a biblical figure who inherited a broken nation steeped in idolatry and corruption. She emphasizes the importance of humility, action, and obedience in the face of inherited dysfunction. Josiah's reforms serve as a model for modern believers, encouraging them to confront the 'high places' or idols in their lives and to remain faithful even when the outcome seems bleak. The discussion highlights the power of individual obedience and the necessity of returning to God's Word for revival.

Takeaways

King Josiah faced a broken legacy but chose to act.

Obedience is about honoring God, not controlling outcomes.

Josiah's reforms were a response to the rediscovery of God's Word.

High places in our lives represent modern idols we must confront.

One heart responding to God can impact generations.

Faithfulness is more important than visible success.

Revival begins with a return to Scripture.

Josiah's actions were bold and public, setting an example.

You can choose a different path than your ancestors.

God sees and honors individual acts of obedience.

Sound bites

"You can be the one that says it stops here."

"What are the high places in our lives?"

"Your obedience is never wasted."

What the Bible Really Says About the End Times: Knowing God’s Voice, Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional Have you heard people saying the rapture was going to happen this week? You’re not alone. Social media has been flooded with fear-based predictions, confusing videos, and end-time panic. But what does the Bible actually say about the rapture, the end times, and Jesus’ return? In this episode, we clear up the confusion with a grounded, biblical explanation of the rapture and what Scripture really teaches about the second coming of Christ. We talk about why Jesus said no one knows the day or hour, what Matthew 24 and 1 Thessalonians 4 actually mean, and how the message of the end times is not about fear—but about hope, purpose, and the Good News reaching the whole world. Whether you’re a new believer, someone wrestling with fear about the future, or just looking for clarity on rapture theology, this episode will give you truth, peace, and practical encouragement for how to live while we wait for Christ’s return.

We don't have to be called a prophet to have a prophetic voice. God's voice is the true prophetic voice. Less than 2% of prophecies speak about the Messiah. Most prophecies remind us of God's word, not predict the future. The prophetic voice often serves as a reminder of God's promises. God was in control even when it didn't seem like it. The character and nature of God remains constant. Trusting in God's plan is essential, even in uncertainty.

]]> 542 The Link Between Obedience and Peace: How Faith Without Obedience Leads to Spiritual Stagnation with Special Guest, Missionary Addy Curtis The Link Between Obedience and Peace: How Faith Without Obedience Leads to Spiritual Stagnation with Special Guest, Missionary Addy Curtis In this special episode of the Hearing Jesus podcast, Rachael interviews her daughter, Addy, who shares her transformative journey from aspiring lawyer to missionary. Addy recounts her experiences during a mission trip to Manchester, New Hampshire, where she felt a calling to serve others and realized her true purpose lay in missions rather than a traditional career in law. The conversation explores themes of obedience, faith, and the importance of following God's calling, as well as the challenges and blessings that come with stepping out in faith. Addy discusses her plans to participate in the World Race, a mission program that will take her to various countries, and emphasizes the significance of community support and prayer in her journey.

]]> 898 God's Plan for My Life: Thursday Daily Affirmations | Prayer Thursday Daily Affirmations: God's Plan for My Life You were created on purpose—for a purpose. In this episode of Daily Affirmations, we focus on walking with intention, clarity, and wisdom, grounded in God’s truth. Whether you’re questioning your calling or navigating a new season, these affirmations help you trust God’s plan, listen for His guidance, and move forward with boldness.     God created you for a reason. Your life is not an accident, and your steps are not random. He has a plan for you—a purpose that brings glory to Him and fulfillment to your heart.   As you listen to these affirmations, let them remind you that God is leading, guiding, and equipping you for everything He has called you to do. I’ll say the affirmation, pause so you can repeat it after me, and then share the Scripture reference it’s based on.   Affirmations and Scriptures:   God has a purpose for my life and I walk in His plan.

]]> 572 A Prayer for Your Grief: Immersive Prayer Series: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotionals A Prayer for Your Grief: Immersive Prayer Series: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotionals In this conversation, Rachael Groll explores the theme of quiet faith amidst grief and uncertainty. She emphasizes the importance of trust and surrender, drawing on the biblical story of Martha to illustrate how faith can coexist with doubt and pain. Groll reassures listeners that Jesus embodies hope and resurrection, encouraging them to find peace in their waiting and to believe in His presence even when circumstances are challenging. The conversation culminates in an invitation to deepen one's faith through community and scripture study. Takeaways: Sometimes the most radical kind of faith isn't loud or dramatic. Even in her grief, Martha chose to trust Jesus. Faith can be confused or hesitant, yet still valid. Jesus invites us into a deeper understanding of faith. Hope is not a distant promise; it is present in Jesus. Even when we don't understand, we can still trust. Jesus is with us in our waiting and pain. We can find peace by acknowledging His presence. The act of surrender can lead to a quiet shift in our hearts. Community and scripture study can deepen our connection to faith. Sound bites: "Faith doesn't just shout, it stays." "Stay here as long as you need." "It's about creating sacred space now."

She emphasizes the importance of trust and surrender, drawing on the biblical story of Martha to illustrate how faith can coexist with doubt and pain. Groll reassures listeners that Jesus embodies hope and resurrection, encouraging them to find peace in their waiting and to believe in His presence even when circumstances are challenging. The conversation culminates in an invitation to deepen one's faith through community and scripture study. Takeaways: Sometimes the most radical kind of faith isn't loud or dramatic. Even in her grief, Martha chose to trust Jesus. Faith can be confused or hesitant, yet still valid. Jesus invites us into a deeper understanding of faith. Hope is not a distant promise; it is present in Jesus. Even when we don't understand, we can still trust. Jesus is with us in our waiting and pain. We can find peace by acknowledging His presence. The act of surrender can lead to a quiet shift in our hearts. Community and scripture study can deepen our connection to faith. Sound bites: "Faith doesn't just shout, it stays." "Stay here as long as you need." "It's about creating sacred space now."

]]> 572 A Prayer for Your Past: Immersive Prayer Series: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotionals A Prayer for Your Past: Immersive Prayer Series: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotionals In this episode, Rachael Groll explores the transformative power of personal stories in sharing faith, using the biblical account of the Samaritan woman at the well as a central theme. She emphasizes that we do not need to be fully healed or have all the answers to be used by God. Instead, our willingness to share our experiences can lead others to encounter Jesus. The discussion encourages listeners to embrace their stories, find courage in vulnerability, and invite others to see the work of Christ in their lives. Takeaways: We often think we need to be healed before being used by God. The Samaritan woman became a witness despite her past. We can be sent by God while still in our healing process. Our stories can be powerful testimonies for others. Courage comes from confidence in Jesus, not ourselves. Sharing our stories can help others encounter Jesus. We don't need to have all the answers to share our faith. Honesty in our testimonies resonates with others. Jesus uses every piece of our story for His glory. We are called to invite others to see what Jesus has done. Sound bites: "We have to wait until we are healed." "She simply put down her water jar." "You don't have to be a preacher."

She emphasizes that we do not need to be fully healed or have all the answers to be used by God. Instead, our willingness to share our experiences can lead others to encounter Jesus. The discussion encourages listeners to embrace their stories, find courage in vulnerability, and invite others to see the work of Christ in their lives. Takeaways: We often think we need to be healed before being used by God. The Samaritan woman became a witness despite her past. We can be sent by God while still in our healing process. Our stories can be powerful testimonies for others. Courage comes from confidence in Jesus, not ourselves. Sharing our stories can help others encounter Jesus. We don't need to have all the answers to share our faith. Honesty in our testimonies resonates with others. Jesus uses every piece of our story for His glory. We are called to invite others to see what Jesus has done. Sound bites: "We have to wait until we are healed." "She simply put down her water jar." "You don't have to be a preacher."

]]> 572 A Prayer for Waiting: Immersive Prayer Series: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional A Prayer for Waiting: Immersive Prayer Series: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional This episode continues our contemplative prayer series by exploring what it means to trust Jesus before the outcome is visible. Using the story of Mary, the mother of Jesus, Rachael guides you into a sacred space of reflection, obedience, and surrender. In seasons of waiting and uncertainty, we are reminded that Jesus honors faith—even when it feels quiet, small, or unseen. If you’ve been waiting on a miracle, this episode invites you to lean in and listen. Summary Points: What does it mean to trust God before the miracle? Mary’s obedience shows us how to respond to Jesus without needing full clarity. Why is faith important in waiting? Faith isn’t just about outcomes—it’s about who we believe God is in the process. How do we obey when we don’t understand? This session walks through small steps of faith that lead to deeper trust. What’s unique about this prayer? It creates room to reflect on your own journey of surrender, anchored in Scripture. What will I leave with? Peace in the waiting, renewed trust in God, and a deeper awareness of Jesus’ presence.

]]> 559 A Prayer For Surrender: Immersive Prayer Series : Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional A Prayer For Surrender: Immersive Prayer Series : Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional In this first episode of our contemplative prayer series, we begin with Mary, the mother of Jesus. Through a guided, immersive experience, Rachael invites listeners to slow down and reflect on what it means to surrender fully to God. Using Mary’s quiet obedience as a framework, this prayer session is designed to help you experience Scripture in a personal, Spirit-led way. If you’ve ever wrestled with obedience or wondered how to trust God’s timing, this is a space created just for you. Summary Points: What is contemplative prayer? It’s a guided prayer practice that helps you enter into Scripture and reflect deeply on God’s presence and voice. Why start with Mary, the mother of Jesus? Her quiet surrender models a posture of trust, even when the full picture isn’t clear. How does this help with spiritual growth? It invites stillness, spiritual attentiveness, and a renewed sense of obedience. What makes this episode different? It’s not just teaching—it’s an experiential, immersive prayer encounter. What will I walk away with? A sense of peace, a deeper connection with Scripture, and tools to listen for God’s voice.  Soundbites: “Obedience doesn’t always feel loud—sometimes it looks like stillness.” “Mary didn’t need all the answers. She needed to trust the One who called her.” “You don’t have to strive in this moment. You just have to be present.” “God speaks even in the silence.” “Breathe in His peace. Exhale your striving.” Episode Chapters: 00:00 – What to Expect: Intro to contemplative prayer 01:00 – Breathing & Centering 02:00 – Scripture reading: Mary’s encounter 04:30 – Immersive prayer experience 10:00 – Reflections on surrender 13:00 – Closing prayer & invitation This audio devotional is a companion to the She Hears Bible Study, Grab Your Printed Copy Here!

Spiritual growth isn’t about speed—it’s about staying present.

When we focus on the process instead of the results, we create space for God to work. In this episode, we talk about slowing down as we study Scripture—training our minds to pay attention to context, not just content. Mary Magdalene’s story reminds us that transformation happens when we linger with Jesus, not when we rush to the finish.

In this episode, we explore the power of Jesus’ personal invitation and how His call to Mary reflects the way He draws near to us.

God created you for a reason. Your life is not an accident, and your steps are not random. He has a plan for you—a purpose that brings glory to Him and fulfillment to your heart.

 

As you listen to these affirmations, let them remind you that God is leading, guiding, and equipping you for everything He has called you to do.

I’ll say the affirmation, pause so you can repeat it after me, and then share the Scripture reference it’s based on.

]]> 835 Rest and Renewal: Friday Daily Affirmations | Bible Podcast Friday Daily Affirmations: Rest and Renewal End your week anchored in peace and presence. This episode invites listeners to release their burdens and find rest in God’s care. With each affirmation and verse, you’re reminded that you’re not alone—God’s strength, love, and renewal are available right where you are. It’s time to stop striving and start resting in His goodness. Affirmations for rest, renewal, and surrender: The week is ending, and as we step into the weekend, let’s take a moment to breathe. Release our burdens and rest in God’s presence. We’re not meant to carry everything ourselves.

As the world feels overwhelming, these affirmations anchor the listener in God’s promises.

From Olive Tree to Obedience: Daily Bible Study, Devotional In this special episode, Rachael shares the story behind Bible Study Live, a dream five years in the making.

It is a story about obedience, bold faith, and what happens when you study God's Word in the places it was lived out. If you have ever wondered how these trips started, this is the episode.

In this episode, we watch Joseph’s brothers wrestle with guilt, fear, and the consequences of choices they buried long ago. As Joseph tests their honesty and Jacob clings to fear and grief, we’re invited to reflect on how God uses even our pain to bring about healing and restoration. This isn’t just a family reunion—it’s the beginning of a redemptive unraveling, one only God could orchestrate.

While she’s chasing selfish desires, Joseph stays grounded in his faith and refuses to compromise. Even when it costs him everything, he chooses to honor God. If you’ve ever felt like doing the right thing only made life harder, Joseph gets it. This story reminds us that even in the dark seasons, God is still with us.

While Tamar is often remembered only for disguising herself as a prostitute, a closer look reveals a woman who was brave, strategic, and determined to do what was right in a system that failed her at every turn. Tamar’s bold actions ultimately preserved the family line of Judah—a lineage that would lead directly to Jesus. Rachael unpacks the cultural and historical context of Tamar’s decisions and shows how God redeemed her story, reminding us that no matter how messy our lives feel, God can work through the dysfunction. Tamar’s story isn’t just about scandal—it’s about grace, redemption, and legacy.

After years of fear, manipulation, and deceit, Jacob finally finds peace in his reunion with Esau. But what follows this emotional reunion is just as significant: Jacob builds an altar as a public act of worship, acknowledging God’s faithfulness and his new identity in God. This moment is a powerful reminder of the importance of worship in our everyday lives—not just in big moments, but in the mundane details. Rachael challenges us to reflect on how we can make worship a priority, trust in God’s provision, and embrace our identity in Him, as Jacob did.

After years of manipulation and self-reliance, Jacob faces a spiritual and emotional struggle that will change everything. This wrestling match represents Jacob’s shift from controlling his circumstances to surrendering to God. The encounter results in a new name for Jacob—Israel, meaning “he struggles with God”—symbolizing the end of one era of his life and the beginning of another. Rachael reflects on how we often wrestle with God in our struggles and how true transformation comes not from self-sufficiency but from surrender and trusting God with the outcome.

After years of deception and broken trust, Jacob must navigate his fear and guilt, relying on God for guidance. Instead of using manipulation as he had in the past, Jacob approaches the situation with humility and a sense of responsibility for his actions. This moment becomes a turning point where Jacob shifts from self-sufficiency to full dependence on God, learning that true peace doesn’t come through control, but through grace, generosity, and trust in God’s sovereignty. Rachael challenges us to consider how we approach conflict in our own lives—can we move forward with the same humility and trust in God, even when reconciliation seems difficult or impossible?

After Jacob decides to leave, Laban catches up with him, and what could have escalated into violence transforms into a boundary-setting conversation. This moment of tension and conflict ends with a covenant marked by a pile of stones, symbolizing the boundaries between them. Rachael draws on the themes of peace, forgiveness, and healthy boundaries, showing that sometimes peace doesn’t mean reconciliation, but setting boundaries and trusting God with the process.

After years of mistreatment and manipulation, Jacob finally hears God’s call to leave, and though the decision is fraught with uncertainty, it’s a pivotal moment in Jacob’s life.

]]> 533 Holy Wednesday: The Week That Changed Everything: Holy Week: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional https://hearingjesuspodcast.com/ Holy Wednesday: The Week That Changed Everything: Holy Week: Daily Bible Study, Daily Devotional In today’s episode, we walk through the tension between Jesus and the religious leaders as He responds with wisdom to their attempts to trap Him. From questions about taxes to resurrection debates and the greatest commandment, Jesus challenges their hearts and invites us to consider how we approach truth, love, and spiritual authority. Through these moments, we see that loving God and others is the foundation for everything, and Jesus’ identity as Messiah becomes unmistakably clear.

While it seems like a simple moment, it reveals deep truths about how we sometimes give up what’s sacred for what’s easy. When we’re tired, hungry, or spiritually drained, it’s easy to settle for quick fixes. But God invites us to honor our calling, even in the small choices. This story challenges us to value what truly matters and not let temporary emotions lead us away from eternal purpose.

While it seems like a simple moment, it reveals deep truths about how we sometimes give up what’s sacred for what’s easy. When we’re tired, hungry, or spiritually drained, it’s easy to settle for quick fixes. But God invites us to honor our calling, even in the small choices. This story challenges us to value what truly matters and not let temporary emotions lead us away from eternal purpose.

In Genesis 22:20-24, after the intense moment when Abraham nearly sacrificed Isaac, we get a glimpse of how God was orchestrating the future. We’re introduced to Rebekah, the woman who will one day become Isaac’s wife. At this point in the story, Abraham doesn’t know anything about her. Isaac certainly doesn’t. But God does. Before they even think about what comes next, He is already at work, putting the right people in place at the right time. This passage is a powerful reminder that while we focus on what’s right in front of us, God is moving ahead of us, setting things in motion for what’s to come. Even when we don’t understand His timing, we can trust that He is preparing the way. ☆To Give towards a Survival Program or Sponsor a Child  ➤   Help Mothers and Children Join our Patreon family as we prepare our hearts for Easter:  The Promises of Lent Series _______________________________________ ☆ GET AD-FREE EPISODES OR THE JOURNALING WORKBOOK HERE ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus Show Partnership Information: ☆To Give towards a Survival Program or Sponsor a Child  ➤   Help Mothers and Children _______________________________________ If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here ________________________________________ Connect further with us !

Despite all that God has done for him, he falls into an old pattern—deception. When faced with uncertainty, he lies about Sarah being his sister, just like he did in Egypt. But even in Abraham’s failure, God steps in to protect Sarah and uphold His promise. This passage reminds us that fear-driven decisions lead to unnecessary trouble, but God’s faithfulness remains constant.

After escaping the destruction of Sodom, Lot and his daughters isolate themselves in a cave, and fear pushes them to make choices that have devastating consequences for generations. Instead of trusting God, they take matters into their own hands, leading to the birth of two sons who become the ancestors of the Moabites and Ammonites—nations that would later oppose Israel. But even in the midst of this brokenness, God’s redemptive plan is still at work. The story reminds us that fear clouds our judgment, but faith anchors us in God’s provision.

His conversation with God isn’t about changing God’s mind, but about revealing God’s heart—one that is both just and merciful. This passage reminds us that intercessory prayer is powerful, not because we can override human choices, but because we align our hearts with God’s will. Ultimately, it points us to Jesus, our ultimate intercessor, who stands before the Father, praying for us even now. If Abraham could stand before God and ask for mercy, how much more confidence can we have in bringing our prayers to the One who gave His life for us?

His conversation with God isn’t about changing God’s mind, but about revealing God’s heart—one that is both just and merciful. This passage reminds us that intercessory prayer is powerful, not because we can override human choices, but because we align our hearts with God’s will. Ultimately, it points us to Jesus, our ultimate intercessor, who stands before the Father, praying for us even now. If Abraham could stand before God and ask for mercy, how much more confidence can we have in bringing our prayers to the One who gave His life for us?

Even when God’s timing seems delayed, His promises remain true. Abram’s honest conversations with God remind us that faith doesn’t mean having all the answers—it’s about believing in God’s character.

Faced with famine, Abram takes matters into his own hands and goes to Egypt without seeking God’s direction. In his fear, he compromises by asking Sarai to say she is his sister, putting them both in a dangerous situation. But even in Abram’s failure, God remains faithful, stepping in to protect Sarai and redirect Abram back on course. This passage challenges us to trust God fully, even in uncertainty, and reminds us that His faithfulness is greater than our failures. ☆To Give towards a Survival Program or Sponsor a Child  ➤   Help Mothers and Children _______________________________________ Show Partnership Information: ☆Teach English and Earn Your Master’s Degree: ELIC.ORG/HEARINGJESUS ☆ GET AD-FREE EPISODES OR THE JOURNALING WORKBOOK HERE ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here ________________________________________ Connect further with us !

We’ll talk about how Sarai’s barrenness wasn’t just a detail in the story, but a setup for God’s miraculous plan. We’ll also explore the tension between following God’s call and settling for comfort, and why so many of us stop short of where God is leading us.

In this episode, we unpack the story of the Tower of Babel—what it meant in the ancient world and why it still matters today. We’ll explore the power of naming in the Bible, the role of ziggurats as human attempts to reach God, and how misplaced ambition can lead us away from Him. But here’s the good news: God has always had a better way. Instead of striving to reach Him on our own, He invites us into covenant and relationship—a promise ultimately fulfilled in Jesus.

We’ll take a closer look at key figures like Nimrod and the descendants of Canaan, exploring their impact on biblical history and what it means for us today. Along the way, we’ll reflect on the legacy we’re leaving behind and why embracing unity in diversity is central to God’s heart.

This passage highlights human creativity, pride, and violence alongside God’s enduring invitation to relationship and redemption. While Cain’s line demonstrates cultural achievements, like music and metalwork, it also showcases the consequences of sin. In contrast, Seth’s line begins to call on the name of the Lord, emphasizing humility and faith.

Sin brought separation from the tree of life and the life they were created for, but even in that, God’s grace was clear. He provided for them, covering their shame and protecting them as they entered a broken world.

(2025) In today’s episode, we continue our study Genesis 3, focusing on the aftermath of Adam and Eve’s disobedience. As we explore the passage often called “The Judgment,” we uncover the devastating impact of sin on humanity’s relationship with God. The once-perfect fellowship is replaced by fear, shame, and hiding, but even here, we see glimpses of God’s redemptive plan. Through Jesus, the separation caused by sin is restored, allowing us to walk in communion with God again. Join me as we reflect on the gravity of sin, the hope of redemption, and the invitation to stop hiding and embrace God’s presence. ☆ GET THE JOURNALING WORKBOOK HERE ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 25% OFF your subscription to DWELL DWELLBIBLE.COM/HEARINGJESUS ☆Teach English and Earn Your Master’s Degree: ELIC.ORG/HEARINGJESUS ☆To Sponsor a child through Compassion International  ➤   Compassion.com/hearingjesus Or text HEARINGJESUS to 83393  ☆Get 40% off with your subscription  at EARTHBREEZE.COM/HEARINGJESUS _______________________________________ If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here ________________________________________ Connect further with us !

(2025) In today’s episode, we explore the story of the fall, focusing on how the serpent manipulates Eve by twisting God’s words and preying on her misunderstanding. We see Eve’s desire for independence lead her and Adam to step outside of God’s perfect timing, complicating His original design. This passage highlights the importance of knowing God’s Word, trusting His timing, and being aware of the enemy’s subtle schemes. Even in this moment of brokenness, God’s love and grace remain constant, inviting us to return to Him.  ☆ GET THE JOURNALING WORKBOOK HERE ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 25% OFF your subscription to DWELL DWELLBIBLE.COM/HEARINGJESUS ☆Teach English and Earn Your Master’s Degree: ELIC.ORG/HEARINGJESUS ☆To Sponsor a child through Compassion International  ➤   Compassion.com/hearingjesus Or text HEARINGJESUS to 83393  ☆Get 40% off with your subscription  at EARTHBREEZE.COM/HEARINGJESUS _______________________________________ If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here ________________________________________ Connect further with us !

Together, we reflect on God’s intentional provision, His abundant creation, and the boundaries He set for Adam as an expression of care and protection. From the rivers that watered the land to the sacred space of the garden itself, we see a picture of God’s order and purpose. We also examine the significance of obedience and trust, learning how boundaries are not limitations but invitations to rely on God’s wisdom.

Together, we reflect on God’s intentional provision, His abundant creation, and the boundaries He set for Adam as an expression of care and protection. From the rivers that watered the land to the sacred space of the garden itself, we see a picture of God’s order and purpose.

Far beyond a scientific explanation, Genesis invites us to see how God brings order, meaning, and relationship to creation. We’ll dive into the significance of ruah—God’s breath or Spirit—and how it connects to His sustaining work throughout Scripture and in our lives today. This conversation will challenge us to view the world not just through a structural lens but through the purpose and function God designed.

We’ll dive into the significance of ruah—God’s breath or Spirit—and how it connects to His sustaining work throughout Scripture and in our lives today.

The chapter paints a vivid picture of insatiable desires—like a leech that never says “enough” or a heart full of pride—and warns us of the destructive consequences they bring. Instead, the antidote to this hunger for more is humility and recognizing that greatness comes not from exalting ourselves but from embracing our limits and trusting in God’s provision. Proverbs 30 also reminds us that true wisdom is often found in the seemingly small, simple things, like ants gathering food and eagles soaring high. In a culture that celebrates indulgence, this chapter invites us to pause and evaluate where we’re placing our value—on excess or on the steady faithfulness of God. As we reflect on the wisdom in these verses, let’s challenge ourselves to live with humility, trust in God’s provision, and embrace the contentment that comes from knowing He provides all we need. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆To Sponsor a child through Compassion International  ➤ Compassion.com/hearingjesus Or text HEARINGJESUS to 83393  ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

Whether it’s choosing righteousness over flattery or justice over self-interest, Proverbs 29 gives us a clear blueprint for navigating life with wisdom.

Wisdom isn’t just about personal growth; it’s about investing in relationships, building character, and learning how to genuinely support one another. From celebrating the successes of others to understanding the value of small, everyday moments, Proverbs 27 offers practical insights that challenge our approach to community. It reminds us that life is richer and more fulfilling when we live interdependently, leaning on both God and the people He’s placed in our lives. As we dive into this chapter, we’ll unpack how to shift from selfish ambitions to mutual care, understanding that real growth happens when we prioritize others.

]]> 1528 709 // Proverbs 14: What Kind of Life Are You Building? https://hearingjesuspodcast.com/ 709 // Proverbs 14: What Kind of Life Are You Building? In this episode, we’re digging into Proverbs 14 and looking at the kind of life we’re building. Are the choices you’re making creating something solid and meaningful, or could they be tearing things down without you even realizing it?

]]> 1500 704 // Proverbs 9: Why Wisdom Is a Matter of Life or Death 704 // Proverbs 9: Why Wisdom Is a Matter of Life or Death In today’s episode of the Hearing Jesus Podcast, we’re studying Proverbs chapter 9—a pivotal moment in our wisdom journey through the book of Proverbs. This chapter reveals the stark contrast between wisdom and folly, showing how our choices lead us toward life or death. We’ll unpack the imagery of wisdom’s house with its seven pillars, representing completeness, and explore how wisdom stands as an open invitation to align our lives with God’s truth. In contrast, folly lures us with false promises and hidden traps, reminding us of the destructive path sin often takes. Through this passage, we’re reminded that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and when we lean into His character and guidance, we not only gain understanding but also experience a life rich with purpose and direction.

This chapter reveals the stark contrast between wisdom and folly, showing how our choices lead us toward life or death. We’ll unpack the imagery of wisdom’s house with its seven pillars, representing completeness, and explore how wisdom stands as an open invitation to align our lives with God’s truth. In contrast, folly lures us with false promises and hidden traps, reminding us of the destructive path sin often takes. Through this passage, we’re reminded that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and when we lean into His character and guidance, we not only gain understanding but also experience a life rich with purpose and direction.

]]> 1394 703 // Proverbs 8: The Wisdom That Shaped Creation https://hearingjesuspodcast.com/ 703 // Proverbs 8: The Wisdom That Shaped Creation In this episode of the Hearing Jesus Podcast, we’re continuing our walk through Proverbs, landing in chapter 8—a chapter that takes us all the way back to the beginning of creation. Here, we see that wisdom isn’t something God created after the fact—it was there with Him before the world was even formed. Together, we’ll explore how wisdom is an eternal part of God’s nature, woven into everything He has made, and what that means for us today. We’ll talk about how wisdom isn’t hard to find or hidden in mystery—it’s crying out for us to listen and follow. This chapter paints a vivid picture of wisdom as open and inviting, standing in stark contrast to the sneaky and manipulative tactics of sin and foolishness. As we dig into these truths, we’ll see how aligning with God’s wisdom can shape our lives with righteousness, purpose, and a deeper connection with Him.    ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆To Sponsor a child through Compassion International  ➤ Compassion.com/hearingjesus Or text HEARINGJESUS to 83393  ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

]]> 1433 Mark 16: The Day That Changed Everything | Bible Study https://hearingjesuspodcast.com/ 688// The Day That Changed Everything: Witnessing the Impossible in Mark 16 In this powerful episode, we explore the final chapter of the Gospel of Mark, where everything changes. The story begins with Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome courageously going to anoint Jesus’ body, only to find the stone rolled away and the tomb empty. An angelic messenger announces the impossible: Jesus has risen. This moment marks a turning point not only in their lives but for all humanity. We discuss the significance of the women as the first witnesses, the cultural implications of their role, and how their fear and awe reflect the weight of the resurrection. We also explore Jesus’ post-resurrection appearances, His rebuke and commissioning of the disciples, and the signs that would accompany those who believe. Through this lens, we reflect on what it means to embrace resurrection hope, to move beyond fear, and to fulfill the Great Commission with boldness and faith.    ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus _______________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

We look at the symbolic tearing of the temple veil and the surprising confession of the Roman centurion, who acknowledges Jesus as the Son of God. This moment marks a new era of access to God, where barriers are removed, and everyone is invited into His presence. Through the actions of the women who stood by the cross and Joseph of Arimathea, who boldly requested Jesus’ body, we see examples of loyalty and devotion, even in times of grief and danger. These stories encourage us to remain faithful in our own lives, especially when standing up for our beliefs may come at a cost. Join us as we reflect on how these moments can inspire us to take bold steps of faith, embrace the freedom Jesus’ sacrifice offers, and live with purpose beyond the need for approval from others.   ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus ____________________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

The Call to Stand with Christ in Mark 14: 32-52 In this episode, we are studying the powerful scene in Gethsemane, where Jesus faces intense sorrow and anguish. As the reality of His sacrifice looms closer, Jesus prays fervently, wrestling with the cup He must bear. We explore how Jesus’ humanity shines through His request to “take this cup,” yet ultimately surrenders with the words, “Not my will, but yours be done.” Alongside this, we witness the disciples’ struggle to stay awake, a reminder of our own human frailty and need for spiritual vigilance. This journey through Gethsemane reveals profound insights into obedience, surrender, and how to stay faithful in the darkest moments.    ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus ____________________________________________ Show Sponsor Partnership Information: ☆Get 10 FREE meals at HelloFresh.com/FREEHEARINGJESUS Applied across 7 boxes, new subscribers only, varies by plan.

How He Responds in Those Moments: Mark 14:12-31 In this episode, we explore the deeply emotional and symbolic moments of Jesus’ Last Supper with His disciples, as recorded in Mark 14:12–31. This passage isn’t just a historical account but a powerful narrative that reflects foreknowledge, betrayal, and sacrificial love. We dive into the preparations for the Passover meal, the meaning behind breaking bread and sharing the cup, and the unfolding events that point to Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. We also reflect on Peter’s bold promises of loyalty and his later denial, challenging us to confront our own faithfulness when tested. Do you have a miracle story to share?

]]> 1310 679 // Technology Meets Theology: An AI Interview Including AI Led Prayer! 679 // Technology Meets Theology: An AI Interview Including AI-Led Prayer! In this episode, we dive into the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and faith. With so many fears and uncertainties surrounding AI, we explore how technology can be used to deepen our relationship with God rather than replace it. Is AI a threat to our beliefs, or can it be a tool for spiritual growth? We’ll also unpack some myths about AI, offer practical ways to use AI in Bible study, and discuss what it means to trust God in a digital world. Key Points: • Common fears Christians have about AI and how to address them with faith. • Practical ways AI can support Bible study, prayer routines, and spiritual growth. • How to discern the ethical use of AI in light of biblical principles. • Balancing trust in God with the use of technology in everyday life. • Busting myths: AI is not replacing faith, but it can aid in the journey. • A reminder that God remains sovereign, no matter how advanced technology becomes. Why This Episode Matters: AI is becoming an unavoidable part of life, but many Christians are unsure how to navigate it without compromising their beliefs. This episode provides clarity and reassurance, offering faith-based insights into the role AI can play in our spiritual practices. Do you have a miracle story to share?

What Jesus Says About Eternal Relationship: Mark 12: 18-27 In this episode, we are studying Mark 12:18-27, where Jesus confronts the Sadducees, a group that denies the resurrection. They challenge Him with a hypothetical scenario about marriage in the afterlife, but Jesus reveals a deeper truth about the resurrection and the power of God. This discussion calls us to move beyond earthly assumptions and invites us into a hope that transcends death. This episode is an invitation to place our hope in God’s promises and trust that His power is greater than anything we face, even death.

This passage offers insight into the tension between earthly responsibilities and spiritual devotion. Jesus’ response, “Give to Caesar what is Caesar’s and to God what is God’s,” goes beyond taxes—it challenges us to evaluate where our ultimate allegiance lies.    In a world full of political debates and societal expectations, this passage is a reminder that our ultimate hope and identity lie in God’s kingdom. Jesus teaches us how to balance earthly responsibilities without losing sight of our spiritual calling. This conversation is especially relevant today, encouraging listeners to evaluate where they place their trust and allegiance.    ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here _____________________________________________  Connect further with us !

Jesus uses this allegory to challenge the religious leaders of His time, exposing their rejection of God’s prophets and foreshadowing His own death. Through this story, we unpack how God’s kingdom operates in humility and service, contrasting it with worldly power structures. Jesus shows that God’s victory isn’t about triumph through force but through surrender and sacrifice. Key Points: • The Parable of the Tenants reflects Israel’s rejection of God’s messengers and the coming rejection of Jesus. • Jesus challenges worldly power structures by showing that God’s kingdom is built on humility and service. • We unpack the contrast between earthly kingdoms and God’s kingdom, urging listeners to keep their hope anchored in Jesus. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here _____________________________________________  Connect further with us !

The Truth About Empty Religion: Mark 11:12-33 In this episode, take a look at an often misunderstood scene in Mark’s Gospel—Jesus cursing the fig tree and His bold cleansing of the temple. We’ll explore the deeper meaning behind these actions and how they expose fruitless faith and broken religious systems. Discover why Jesus didn’t just cleanse the temple but condemned its entire operation and how this applies to the way we practice faith today. We also look at His teaching on prayer and forgiveness, understanding how faith enables us to move mountains, both spiritual and personal. Join us as we unpack these powerful messages and challenge ourselves to examine the fruit in our own lives. Key Points: • The Symbolism of the Fig Tree: Why Jesus cursed a fig tree out of season and what it reveals about empty religion. • Jesus Cleanses the Temple: More than a reform, Jesus’ actions signaled the end of the temple’s role as the center of worship. • Faith that Moves Mountains: What it means to pray with faith and let go of bitterness through forgiveness. • Authority Challenged: The priests and elders confront Jesus, revealing their fear of losing control and their lack of understanding of God’s authority.

]]> 1505 674// Jesus Isn’t Running for Office: Why Politics Can’t Save Us: Mark 11:1-11 https://patreon.com/HearingJesus 674// Jesus Isn’t Running for Office: Why Politics Can’t Save Us: Mark 11:1-11 In this episode, we explore the significance behind Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem, a moment celebrated by the crowds yet misunderstood at its core. Journey with us through Mark 11:1–11 as we unpack the cultural, prophetic, and spiritual meaning of this moment. Why did Jesus ride a colt? What did the people expect from Him? And how do we respond when God’s plans don’t align with our expectations? What is the connection to our modern political climate? We reflect on how this story challenges our modern ideas of success, power, and humility, drawing lessons for our personal faith journeys today. What You’ll Learn in This Episode: • The symbolic meaning behind Jesus riding a colt and the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy. • The tension between the crowd’s expectations and Jesus’ mission to bring peace rather than political victory. • How Jesus’ silent inspection of the temple reveals His intentionality and discernment. • The relevance of this story for our personal journeys—how we respond when God’s plans differ from our desires. • Why spiritual greatness looks more like humility and service than power and position. Scripture Reference: • Mark 11:1–11 Key Takeaways: • God’s Kingdom is different—it’s built on humility, peace, and service. • Our expectations vs. God’s plan: Sometimes we need to surrender our agendas to align with God’s will. • Moments of reflection matter: Just as Jesus paused to inspect the temple, we need to pause and discern before taking action. • Discipleship involves humility: Jesus came not to conquer politically, but to save spiritually. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here _____________________________________________  Connect further with us !

]]> 1715 672// Why Being Good Isn't Good Enough: The Truth in Mark 10 https://patreon.com/HearingJesus 672// Why Being Good Isn't Good Enough: The Truth in Mark 10 In this episode, we discuss a conversation with Jesus that can sometimes be pretty challenging to hear. He meets a rich young man eager to inherit eternal life. When Jesus responds by asking him to sell all he has and give to the poor, the man walks away sorrowfully. Why is it so difficult for the rich to enter the kingdom of God? What does this passage teach us about wealth, sacrifice, and true discipleship? Join us as we unpack the lessons from Mark 10:17-31, including Jesus’ profound statement, “With man this is impossible, but not with God; all things are possible with God.” We’ll also discuss how Peter’s declaration of leaving everything for Jesus prompts us to reflect on our own journey of faith, sacrifice, and rewards in the kingdom of God. Key Points: • The rich young man’s question: “What must I do to inherit eternal life?” • Jesus’ response and challenge to sell everything and give to the poor. • Why wealth can be a spiritual obstacle and the deeper meaning behind Jesus’ call to radical sacrifice. • The disciples were amazed at Jesus’ teaching and their concern, “Who then can be saved?” • Jesus’ assurance that with God, even the impossible becomes possible. • Peter’s declaration of leaving everything behind and Jesus’ promise of rewards, along with persecutions. • The deeper meaning of “The first will be last, and the last first.” This episode is brought to you by BetterHelp.

]]> 1550 671// Is Divorce A Sin? The Answer May Surprise You https://patreon.com/HearingJesus 671// Is Divorce A Sin? The Answer May Surprise You  In this episode, we dive into Mark 10:1-16, where Jesus addresses the difficult topic of divorce, marriage, and what it means to approach the Kingdom of God like a child. In response to the Pharisees' trap regarding the legality of divorce, Jesus challenges the very foundation of their question by focusing on God’s original intent for marriage. He also emphasizes the importance of caring for children, showing that the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are dependent, humble, and trusting. We explore the heart issues behind broken relationships and how the hardness of the heart contributes to the breakdown of marriages. While divorce is often a painful reality, we focus on God’s grace and healing for those who have experienced it, especially when divorce is not their choice. We also discuss the importance of approaching the Kingdom of God with a childlike faith—dependent and receptive. Whether you’ve walked through the pain of divorce, know someone who has, or want to understand God’s heart for marriage and children, this episode offers insights into Jesus’ teachings that still resonate today. **Key Points**: - Jesus responds to the Pharisees' question about divorce by redirecting their focus from legalism to God’s original design for marriage. - Divorce, Jesus says, stems from hardness of heart, but God’s grace extends to those who have been hurt by the breakdown of relationships. - Jesus elevates the role of children, emphasizing that the Kingdom of God belongs to those who approach it with humility, dependence, and trust. - The importance of receiving the Kingdom of God "like a child" and the challenge of applying this childlike faith to our adult lives. - Practical reflections on how the church can support those impacted by divorce and strengthen families.

]]> 1909 669// Understanding True Greatness: Lessons from Mark 9:30-50 https://patreon.com/HearingJesus 669// Understanding True Greatness: Lessons from Mark 9:30-50 In today’s episode, we explore Mark 9:30-50, where Jesus redefines greatness in the Kingdom of God. The disciples argue about who among them is the greatest, but Jesus flips the script by teaching that true greatness comes from humility, service, and caring for the least among us. We also unpack Jesus’ warnings about leading others into sin and the radical call to remove anything in our lives that causes us to stumble. This passage challenges us to embrace a life of service, prioritize relationships over status, and take seriously the impact of sin in our lives. **Key Points**: - Jesus teaches that greatness in His Kingdom is about becoming the servant of all, not seeking power or recognition. - Welcoming and serving those who are insignificant in the eyes of the world is central to discipleship. - Jesus’ warnings about causing others to stumble remind us of the importance of living with integrity and care for others. - Radical self-discipline in our spiritual lives helps us avoid sin and grow in holiness. **Reflection**: Are you seeking recognition or power, or are you striving to serve others in humility? Jesus shows us that true greatness comes from lowering ourselves to lift others up. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here _____________________________________________  Connect further with us !

The passage highlights themes of faith, doubt, and the power of prayer. We’ll explore the father’s poignant cry, “I believe; help my unbelief!” and what it means for us when we struggle with doubt. Jesus shows that nothing is impossible for those who have faith, but He also emphasizes the importance of prayer in overcoming spiritual obstacles. This story serves as a powerful reminder that even in our moments of doubt, Jesus can bring healing and restoration. **Key Points**: - The disciples fail to cast out the demon due to a lack of faith and prayer. - The father’s cry for help reveals the tension between faith and doubt that we all experience. - Jesus teaches that everything is possible for those who believe, but emphasizes the importance of dependence on God through prayer. - The healing of the boy illustrates Jesus’ authority over evil and His compassion for those in need. **Reflection**: Do you ever find yourself in situations where your faith is weak?

]]> 1748 665// The Cost of Discipleship: Denying Yourself to Follow Jesus in Mark 8:27–9:1 https://patreon.com/HearingJesus In this episode, we focus on one of the most pivotal moments in the Gospel of Mark—Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Christ, and Jesus’ startling revelation of the suffering and death He must endure. Mark 8:27-9:1 presents the tension between human expectations of a triumphant Messiah and the reality of the suffering servant Jesus came to be. We’ll explore the cultural backdrop of the Messiah figure in Jewish thought, Peter’s partial understanding, and how Jesus patiently leads His disciples toward a fuller understanding of His mission. **Key Points**: - Peter confesses Jesus as the Messiah, but his understanding is limited by earthly expectations. - Jesus begins to reveal His true mission—one of suffering, death, and eventual resurrection. - The disciples’ misunderstanding sets the stage for a deeper revelation of what it means to follow a suffering Messiah. - This passage challenges us to examine our own expectations of God’s plan and how we respond when it doesn’t align with our desires. **Reflection**: What expectations do you have of Jesus that might be limiting your understanding of His true nature? Like Peter, we often want a victorious, problem-solving Savior, but we must also embrace the suffering Messiah who walks with us through trials. ☆ SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PATREON ☆ :  patreon.com/HearingJesus If you would like to give to Hearing Jesus and financially support the podcast,  you can do so here ! ➤ Give Here _____________________________________________  Connect further with us !

]]> 1649 664// Spiritual Vision and Provision: Insights from Jesus' Miracles in Mark 8: 1-26 https://patreon.com/HearingJesus 664// Spiritual Vision and Provision: Insights from Jesus' Miracles in Mark 8: 1-26 In today’s episode, we explore Mark 8:22-26, where Jesus heals a blind man in Bethsaida through a two-stage miracle. This unique account showcases Jesus’ ability to heal even the most difficult cases, but also carries a deeper meaning. Just as the man’s physical sight was restored gradually, the disciples’ spiritual sight needed time to develop. We dive into the significance of this miracle, Jesus’ interactions with the blind man, and how this passage serves as a metaphor for our spiritual journey. Sometimes, our understanding of Christ and His purpose comes in phases, just like the healing we see in this passage.  **Key Points**: - The two-stage healing of the blind man is unique and significant in Mark’s Gospel. - Jesus asks the man what he sees, reflecting His care and precision in healing. - The gradual healing mirrors the disciples’ slow grasp of Jesus’ true mission as the suffering Messiah. - The connection between physical and spiritual blindness helps us understand our own need for progressive spiritual insight. **Reflection**: Have you ever felt like your understanding of God is incomplete? Jesus shows us that healing—both physical and spiritual—sometimes happens in stages. It’s okay to not have all the answers immediately.

This unique account showcases Jesus’ ability to heal even the most difficult cases, but also carries a deeper meaning. Just as the man’s physical sight was restored gradually, the disciples’ spiritual sight needed time to develop. We dive into the significance of this miracle, Jesus’ interactions with the blind man, and how this passage serves as a metaphor for our spiritual journey. Sometimes, our understanding of Christ and His purpose comes in phases, just like the healing we see in this passage.  **Key Points**: - The two-stage healing of the blind man is unique and significant in Mark’s Gospel. - Jesus asks the man what he sees, reflecting His care and precision in healing. - The gradual healing mirrors the disciples’ slow grasp of Jesus’ true mission as the suffering Messiah. - The connection between physical and spiritual blindness helps us understand our own need for progressive spiritual insight. **Reflection**: Have you ever felt like your understanding of God is incomplete? Jesus shows us that healing—both physical and spiritual—sometimes happens in stages. It’s okay to not have all the answers immediately.

Do you want to share your faith with your friends but have a hard time figuring out how to do that? Do you want to learn how to connect the Bible to your real life? Well then, this is the show for you.

 

My name is Rachael, and I am your host. I have been a Children’s Pastor for a long time, and one of my favorite things is helping kids learn how to understand the Bible. I think that sometimes people think that the Bible is just for adults, but God actually really wants kids to know about Him. So on this podcast, we are going to learn all about God’s Big Story and how he shows Himself to us through the Bible. As we learn together what the stories in the Bible mean, we can learn how to live out our faith in our everyday life.

There is a faulty belief that our love or passion will get us where we need to go. But the danger of being a person who burns brightly is that you consume fuel quicker. You will eventually burn out unless you learn how to develop a sustainable relationship with God. Today we talk through this and look at the example of David in the Psalms in today's devotional Bible study episode.

Despite being in a desperate and hopeless situation, the widow demonstrates faith and obedience, which leads to a supernatural abundance of food and sustenance. This story serves as a contrast to the previous episode's focus on Jezebel and highlights the power of God's intervention in the lives of His people. The widow's story also connects to the New Testament, where Jesus references her story and performs a similar miracle. The key takeaway is the importance of having faith and trust in God, even in the midst of desperate circumstances.

Rachael shares her personal journey of doubting God's voice and feeling insecure in her relationship with Him. The significance of Jesus revealing himself to women is highlighted, emphasizing the importance of women in spreading the news of the resurrection. The conversation concludes with a prayer for women to rise up and declare the message of the hope of the gospel.  The first person that Jesus revealed Himself to after the Resurrection was a woman. And the first person that Jesus sent to share the message of the Resurrection with others was a woman. If Jesus calls and equips women to serve Him: No. Other.

Kiwi is power and joy rolled into one. Her story is one of extreme poverty and lack of resources, to God miraculously opening doors through Compassion and post-secondary education. Kiwi shares her personal journey of growing up in poverty in the Philippines and how she encountered God's love and provision through the Compassion Program. She highlights the impact of sponsorship on her life and the importance of speaking life into the lives of sponsored children. Kiwi encourages listeners to trust in God's provision and to be obedient to His call. She emphasizes the ripple effect of sponsorship and the opportunity to be a blessing to others.

As Jesus was preparing Peter for leadership, one of the ways He did that was by calling Him to step out of the boat. As Peter took those first steps, He was focused on Jesus and was able to do what God was calling Him to do. It wasn’t until he allowed the circumstances of what was going on around him to distract him, that he started to sink. In that moment, Jesus stepped in to rescue him. As we think through our own lives, we can see how Jesus never lets us go, even as He calls us to get out of the boat.

What she does after she is healed ought to be a blueprint for our own actions after we experience healing. After that, we read of men who came to Jesus ready to follow him, but Jesus’ reply shows us just what it costs to follow Jesus.

How To Embrace Moments of Change https://hearingjesuspodcast.podbean.com/e/398-are-you-going-through-a-transition-in-your-life-how-to-embrace-moments-of-change/ Life is about transitions, it’s part of the human experience. How do we embrace those moments instead of longing for the next stage? Today I invited my friend Nicki Koziarz on the show to talk about those transitions and her new book, Your New Now. Nicki walks us through the life of Moses, as an example to us when we are living in a place of transition. I pray this episode blesses you!   Nicki Koziarz is an ECPA bestselling author and a speaker with Proverbs 31 Ministries. She speaks nationally at conferences, retreats, and meetings and hosts her own podcast, Lessons from the Farm. An evangelist at heart, Nicki inspires others to become the best version of who God created them to be. Nicki, her husband, and their family run a small farm just outside of Charlotte, North Carolina, which they affectionately call The Fixer Upper Farm.  Your New Now is available here: https://amzn.to/3RpLKkU Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.  Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.  Purchase the She Hears: Learning to Listen to Jesus Bible Study : https://shehears.org/resources In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Today we take a look at the way Jesus taught us to pray, as well as the ways He taught us NOT to pray. Authenticity and vulnerability are the keys to inviting Jesus into our mess, so it’s important that we pray from that place instead of trying to “clean up” our prayers.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. 

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

This passage reveals profound insights into ancient Jewish culture, marriage customs, and the significance of Joseph's obedience. By diving into the background and cultural nuances of this passage, Rachael offers a fresh perspective on Joseph's response and its relevance to believers today.

In this episode, we learn how Matthew strategically crafts his genealogy as a bridge connecting the messianic promises to their fulfillment in Jesus. This was pivotal for the Jewish audience, signifying Jesus as the awaited Messiah who would restore Israel.   This episode encourages listeners to reconsider the significance of this genealogy, urging them not to miss the nuances that point to God's restoration plan.

As one of the original twelve apostles, Matthew presents a compelling narrative of Jesus' life, teachings, and transformative ministry. Matthew's overarching goal is to affirm Jesus' kingship and authority, even in ways that challenge the expectations of his audience.

This purposeful approach resonates with the broader theme of fulfillment found throughout the gospel.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

]]> 1586 no 375// Exploring the Genre of a Gospel: An Introduction to the Gospels Series https://hearingjesuspodcast.podbean.com/e/375-exploring-the-genre-of-a-gospel-an-introduction-to-the-gospels-series/ In this episode of the Hearing Jesus podcast, host Rachael Groll delves into the concept of the gospel and the reason for having four gospels in the Bible. The gospel is a genre of writing, specifically biographies about the life of Jesus, and it is found at the beginning of the New Testament. Rachael explains that the gospels were not necessarily written in chronological order, and each gospel writer had a unique perspective and audience in mind. Rachael addresses common questions about reading the gospels, including the differences in sequence and wording among the accounts. She highlights the literary techniques used by ancient writers, such as rearranging sources for emphasis. The gospels were primarily meant to be heard, not read, as public readings spread the message to wider audiences. As modern readers, Rachael encourages us to engage with the gospels by understanding the cultural context, considering the morals of the stories, and applying the teachings to our lives. She concludes with a prayer for listeners, inviting them to explore the treasure of God's word and seek a fresh understanding of the gospel message. The Hearing Jesus podcast offers valuable insights into understanding the gospels and deepening one's connection with Jesus. Join Rachael as she leads listeners through an in-depth study of the gospels, providing rich context and practical applications for today's audience. Learn to approach the scriptures with fresh ears and an open heart, discovering the beauty and significance of the gospel message.   This episode is a companion to Episode 2 of the Hearing Jesus for Kids Podcast: Hearing Jesus for Kids   For family discussion guides, journaling worksheets, bonus content, and our private discussion forum, please visit our Patreon page: patreon.com/HearingJesus   FREE APP: Daily Bible Inspirations: https://onelink.to/groll   Learn: https://shehears.org   Shop: https://shehears.org/resources   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/she_hears/   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own?

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.  Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

How Quieting Our Hearts Helps Us Hear From God   So many of us avoid solitude because of a fear of loneliness. Did you know that the two are not necessarily the same thing? In fact, they are radically different. Quieting our hearts from all the distractions is an important part of learning to hear God more clearly. Join me this week as we discuss ways to bring solitude into our daily lives.   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.  Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Things to Consider When Planning a Short-Term Mission Trip   Today I share two humorous things to watch out for when traveling to another country for missions. We are also going to start praying about YOU going on a trip. Yes, YOU! Is God calling you to step out in faith to go on a trip with us?   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying.

I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

 

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference?

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

Today we look at the reasons for that, and what that act meant within the larger picture of the cross.   This audio devotional is a companion to the She Hears Bible Study, today’s content is from Chapter 5- Mary- A Woman of Discipleship.     The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives.

Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be. Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying.

Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

For Brandi Wilson that season was 2016, the year her husband – a megachurch pastor – walked away from the church and their family. As her 20-year marriage dissolved, Brandi also lost her church community, her dreams for the future, and a huge part of her identity. She and her three boys began a new journey marked by deep grief and suffering – but also hope, freedom, boldness, and peace. Today Brandi thanks God for the redemptive healing in her life and reassures other newly single women that they are not alone.

The thing about sin is that very few of us start out with the intention to sin. We kind of just end up there. When we feel powerless to overcome that struggle in our lives, that’s where Jesus steps in to meet us with a balance of truth and grace.

Apart from Him, we can do nothing. It’s time we stop trying to deal with the stain of sin on our own. We have all been there, and we will be there again. The reality is we are all guilty. That’s why we need Jesus.

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

The longest recorded conversation we have on record is between Jesus and the Samaritan woman. That’s proof that Jesus speaks to women. Jesus meets us where we are at to speak freedom over the things that have kept us bound.

My prayer is that you will see yourself through the lens that Jesus sees you.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast. 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His. The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.  Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Today we look at Mary’s example of how to handle the seasons when God asks us to lay something down. Her example of faith helps us to surrender to what Jesus is calling us to lay down in our own lives.

 

Everything Jesus does is intentional. He doesn’t react, He responds.

 

From today’s episode:

 

Heart Check:

Is there an area of your life that you are hesitant to bring to Jesus? Or when you do, it’s accompanied by a justification or explanation of why you are feeling the way you do?

Let the Lord reveal the things in your life that you need to take to Him.

 

The role and responsibility given to Mary by God was also taken away by God.

 

This audio devotional is a companion to the She Hears Bible Study, today’s content is from Chapter 1- Mary- A Woman of Authority.

 

Mary had authority because God gave her authority. Authority is a gift from God.

In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.  Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life? Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do. The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life. Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

She speaks nationally at conferences, retreats, and meetings and hosts her own podcast, Lessons from the Farm.

Worship is an experience, not an event. One of the most important things we can do in our lives is to live in a place of worship. Here are 7 practical tips to help you hear God’s voice more clearly through the spiritual discipline of worship.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Today we continue our discussion on Worship. Who is the object of our worship? Why do we worship? How can we worship when we don’t feel like worshiping? Today we look at some of these questions and more.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Today we have a special guest joining us, Jodie Berndt, who is the author of the new book, Praying the Scriptures for Your Marriage. So many of us struggle when it comes to prayer. It can be intimidating to start praying with our spouse if you’ve never done it before. Jodie helps break down some common barriers and helps us understand how powerful praying God’s word back to Him can be. I pray this conversation blesses you!

Praying the Scripture for Your Marriage is available here: https://amzn.to/3RpLKkU

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

That process is God’s work, not our work. Ultimately, we are powerless to change on our own. God’s nature in us is what allows us to change.  Paul mentions 35 times that righteousness is a gift from God. Human striving doesn’t work But it doesn’t mean that we do nothing. Instead, we need to be ready, placed in a posture of being ready for God to work in our lives.   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.   Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives.

I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

It's important to set ourselves up for success because the enemy will try to stop you any way he can. This week is very practical and tactical!   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.   Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own?

Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying.

Today we continue our discussion on Worship. Who is the object of our worship? Why do we worship? How can we worship when we don’t feel like worshiping? Today we look at some of these questions and more.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

When we live in community of other believers, we understand submission in terms of our relationships. We must always look through the lens of Jesus when we approach this topic. Today we take a look at a couple things Biblical Submission is NOT.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

Getting started in the area of simplicity doesn’t have to be complicated. In fact, that’s kind of the whole point, it’s pretty simple. Today we talk about some practical steps you can take to pursue simplicity in your daily life.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

Sometimes we fast because we have an agenda. My encouragement today is to allow God’s agenda to trump our agenda. It should always be about Him and what He wants to do in our lives.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying.

Should Christians Meditate? What the Bible Says About Meditation and How it Affects Our Spiritual Lives- Biblical Meditation- Day 1   Sometimes the word meditate leaves us in a weird space. We don’t really know what to do with it as believers. Is it bad? Or something we should stay away from? Today we are taking a look at what God says in His word about the concept of meditation.   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.   Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

It's not that He isn’t present in the valleys, we just need to learn how to recognize Him there. People sometimes blame this on their pastors or the preaching instead of recognizing that the issue is their own relationship with God. The spiritual disciplines will help us be intentional about growing that relationship.   Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.   Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I, too, was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I, too, felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.   Join me for your daily dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.   Learn -> https://shehears.org Connect -> rachael@shehears.org Community-> https://www.facebook.com/groups/743928930315696/ Instagram-> https://www.instagram.com/she_hears/     Want to go a little deeper?

Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?   Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I too was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I too felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.   The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.   Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.   The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday.

In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew.

In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Today we are starting a new format of 5 short devotional thoughts throughout the week to help you stay connected to God’s word in a way that is quick, easy. My hope is that meditating on God’s word in the morning will help you to stay connected with Him throughout the day. 

 

This audio devotional is a companion to the She Hears Bible Study, today’s content is from Chapter 1- Mary- A Woman of Authority.

 

From today’s episode:

 

Heart Check: Is there any bitterness or unforgiveness you are holding onto from someone judging you? Perhaps unfairly? Or have you jumped to conclusions about someone else based on one interaction? If so, let’s take that to the Lord and deal with it so we can get our hearts clear.

 

Mary had authority because God gave her authority. Authority is a gift from God.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I too was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I too felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your weekly dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

In this six-week study from the Book of John, Rachael Groll takes you on an in-depth exploration into the lives of six women Jesus knew. Women often deal with feelings of insecurity and unworthiness, yet the lives of these women show that Jesus values us, wants a relationship with us, and can use us to further His kingdom. In her warm, conversational style, Rachael ties together her life experience, knowledge of the Scriptures, and her compassion for women to encourage us and enable us to become the women God has called us to be.

Allowing God to Take the Lead: How Going Ahead of God and Doing Things in Our Own Strength is Counter-Productive and Can Only Last So Long

Do you try to do things on your own terms? Are you trying to make a name for yourself or build your own future? Sometimes we are going after a good thing but if we are doing it in the wrong way, our own way, it will eventually crumble. This week we take a look at the Tower of Babel in Genesis and all the ways God provides ways for us to do things His way instead.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I too was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I too felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.

 

Join me for your weekly dose of faith, honesty, and prayer.

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I too was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I too felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

You Belong to God. This week Rachael takes a look at the father wound that can be triggered when we least expect it. How does God respond? Does He respond? How can He heal this area of our heart in those moments when the pain feels physical? All of this and more on this week’s episode.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I too was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I too felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

Jesus can reach into those broken and hurting places to make them new.

We all have broken and hurting spaces in our lives. Although our tendency is to keep them hidden, Jesus wants to reach into those areas to make them new. He is the God who redeems and restores.

 

Hey friends, welcome to the Hearing Jesus Podcast.

 

Do you sometimes doubt if you are truly hearing God’s voice or if it’s really your own? Do you wonder how you can know the difference? Do you struggle to feel confident in your relationship with God and what He says in his word? Do you sometimes feel stagnant or like you hit a wall in your spiritual life?

 

Hey, I’m your host, Rachael Groll: missionary, author, pastor, and life coach. And I have been there. I too was doubting God’s voice in my own life. I too felt insecure about the things I thought God might be calling me to do. I wanted to make a difference in the world and be obedient to what God was calling me to do, but I wasn’t quite sure how to figure out what exactly that was. I kept telling myself that I was wasting time trying to figure it out or waiting for Him to show me. Or that I wasn’t qualified to do the things I thought He might be telling me to do.

 

The answer for me was found in the pages of the Bible, as I learned how to understand what it was actually saying. If you are ready to grow in your faith and to step confidently into the calling God has for you, then join me as we dig deep into God’s word so you can learn to live out your faith in your everyday life.

 

Friend, you are loved, you are cherished, and you are His.

 

The Hearing Jesus Podcast will encourage and equip you to step into the calling God has for your life, living out your faith in the everyday. Together we will break down walls that keep us from growing spiritually. We will dig deep into our Bibles to understand and connect the Scriptures to our lives. We will boldly obey what God calls us to do, walking through doors that only He can open.
