Adventure through the Bible Podcast

Advent is the time around Christmas where we celebrate and wait for the birth of King Jesus who came to take away the sins of the world and unite Heaven and Earth once again! During Advent, there are four weeks to anticipate the arrival of Jesus, so in this series through Advent, we are looking at Biblical hope, peace, joy, and love! Today, we talk about love. Biblical love in Scripture is much more than a feeling. Biblical love is an Agape love which is a love that is unconditional and that you choose to extend to someone else. We see that through God choosing us over and over again even when we fail. Today, we look at questions like in the Biblical narrative, how do we see this theme of Agape love that God extends over His creation? How does Jesus enable us to follow the greatest commandment? The Hebrew Bible records the history of the ancient Israelites as they struggle to follow the commandment to love God and others. If Israel had difficulty with this, how can we hope to do any better? What wisdom is found in Agape Love in the Christmas story and how can it challenge us this week as we go through our respective Christmas celebrations? And more!  More Resources: BibleProject Video on Love Advent Learn.Bible Study CSF Advent Devotional The Four Loves by C.S.

During Advent, there are four weeks to anticipate the arrival of Jesus, so in this series through Advent, we are looking at Biblical hope, peace, joy, and love! Today, we talk about peace! Shalom is the Hebrew word for peace and it means “whole or completeness.” Shalom refers to something that's complex with lots of pieces that's in a state of completeness, wholeness. What does shalom like in our faith with Jesus? Why is it important for us to recognize shalom as being a part of the Christmas story? How do we obtain peace that comes from Jesus? How does Jesus bring peace to two very divided groups of people and how can we be that peace to the world today? These are all things about peace that we talk about today!

What is prayer? What does Scripture say about prayer and the necessity of prayer? Why is it important? In this episode, Niko joins the podcast to talk about prayer and how it's been a part of his life as he's followed Jesus! Scripture from the Podcast: "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." Philippians 4:6-7 (ESV) Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. Pray then like this: “Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." Matthew 6:8-14 (ESV) Jesus said to her, “Did I not tell you that if you believed you would see the glory of God?” So they took away the stone. And Jesus lifted up his eyes and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I said this on account of the people standing around, that they may believe that you sent me.” When he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out.” John 11:40-43 (ESV) For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and of spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discerning the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

One thing that is common in the Hebrew Bible is that Yahweh often called for prophetic reenactments of things yet to come. This reenactment seems to be about the sacrifice that Jesus would one day pay. Yahweh asked Abraham to play the part of Himself in the sacrifice of his own son. Jesus and Isaac are both keys in unlocking this story and seeing how Isaac is the one who kept the blessing alive. Adventure Through the Bible is brought to you by Ben Lock.
