Welcome to Session Seven of our spring audio Bible study! We're studying The Gospel on the Ground, and we're so excited to join Kristi McLelland as she unpacks the life of the early church in the book of Acts and shows us that the kingdom of God is always on the move, always looking outward to bring meaning and joy to a world searching for true fulfillment and hope. Each week, we'll release the next teaching session, and we'll leave the audio up for all seven sessions through June 16.In the seventh and final session, Kristi explains how the testimony of Christians who have come before us, as seen in Hebrews 11, and the eternal hope we have in Christ fuel a love for God and help us press forward in spreading passing the good news of His Kingdom along to others. She reminds us that God is preparing a place for us in heaven where we'll enjoy Him for all eternity—the hope of glory that spurred on the early church and beckons us to obey God even to this day.LINKSThe Gospel on the GroundMore from KristiRECOMMENDEDRead Kristi's prayer for peace on the Lifeway Women blog. MARKED is a podcast from Lifeway Women: https://women.lifeway.com/blog/podcasts/.Hosted by Elizabeth Hyndman and Andrea Lennon.CONNECT WITH US!Follow Lifeway Women and Kristi McLelland on Instagram.Learn more about the More Than Enough Bible study at lifeway.com/morethanenough.

More than that, members of the early church sacrificed to make sure others had what they needed, to the praise and honor of God. In Session Five, Kristi challenges us to model that same Christ-centered unity in our own homes and use our kitchen tables to welcome others so we can share the love of God with them.LINKSThe Gospel on the GroundMore from KristiRECOMMENDEDSet sail on an unforgettable cruise through the Mediterranean with Kristi!

We often approach the Bible like an instruction manual for living our lives, reading it primarily with ourselves in mind and viewing it through the lens of our current culture. But what if we read Scripture differently—through the Middle Eastern lens in which the Bible was originally written and understood? Well, today's guest, professor and biblical culturalist Kristi McLelland, highlights the importance of the historical, cultural, geographic, and linguistic contexts of Scripture. She'll explain how the Bible is a timeless, transformational story with one cohesive storyline, helping you make sense of what you're reading. Plus, she'll encourage you to approach God's Word not just to learn something, but to encounter someone. The result is an encounter with the living God in a way you may not have experienced before. The Bible is about to be transformed from black and white to vivid color, so let's go! SHOW NOTES: 413Podcast.com/315 Read the episode TRANSCRIPT in the show notes.

Hey friends! It's the sweet summer and we are bringing you new amazing episodes from the Lifeway Podcast Network! These episodes have specifically been chosen for YOU and we know you're going to love today's show with Kristi McLelland and the ladies from His Glory Her Good. Last September, a team from Lifeway went to Israel with Krisi to record video teachings for her new bible study Luke in the Land. While the trip was an incredible experience, behind the scenes Kristi wrestled with the Lord, especially when the events in Israel on October 7th took place. On today's show, Kristi shares what God taught her through all of that and challenges us to put our "yes" on the table and walk in obedience when God calls. We hope this episode encourages you to walk in surrender to a good and trustworthy God. His Glory, Her Good was designed specifically for women serving in student ministry. Through this podcast, you'll find two new friends who want to partner with you in student ministry, equip you in your calling, and encourage you to press on. His Glory Her Good is committed to bringing authentic and meaningful conversations to remind you that God is at work through your calling, for your good, for the good of the girls you serve, and for His glory.
