One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where we journey through scripture together, drawing closer to the heart of God. In today's episode, host Hunter invites us into the fourth day of the new year's reading plan, reminding us that the pages of the Bible point us to the living Word—Jesus, who brings life and abundance. We dive into Genesis chapters 9 through 11, exploring God's covenant with Noah, the beginnings of nations after the flood, and the story of the Tower of Babel. Our reading continues in Luke 4, where Jesus, filled with the Spirit, faces temptation in the wilderness and launches His ministry with a message of hope for everyone—inside and outside the expected boundaries. As Hunter reflects on these scriptures, we are challenged to open our hearts wider, recognizing that God's love and grace reach beyond the borders we set. Today is an invitation to see God's favor poured out on the unexpected, to pray for all people, and to participate in the healing, freedom, and joy that Jesus proclaims. Let's step forward together, grounded in the assurance that we are deeply loved—no doubt about it. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He's outside the bounds and borders of where we expect him to be. He is present with those that we think are disqualified from his care, his healing and his love. They're from places like Zarephath in Sidon, or from the land of Syria, gentile lands, borderlands among people that are our enemies, people that we think are enemies of God, people we think are headed for destruction. And yet here's Jesus preaching His first sermon in a church service and proclaiming that God is with them too. That God's favor, His healing, his mercy, his grace is with those people too. This made no sense to his listeners. It offended their religious sensibilities to the core. So much so that Luke tells us that they tried to kill him afterwards. But Jesus will not be stopped. He will not be silenced, and his message will continue to be proclaimed. Jesus comes to show us that God is not a tribal deity. No, he is the God of all tribes. He is the God of all the earth. And his love for the world and its people is reaching into places that our religious minds and our offended minds say are outside the bounds of God's grace. So let's beware of drawing borders around God's love and his grace. Let's look carefully at how Jesus begins His ministry here in his very first sermon. And let us understand well what the Spirit of God is saying to his people. The good News is for the poor. Captives are released, the blind are seeing, the oppressed are set free. And the time of the Lord's favor has come. And Jesus says that that favor has come to everyone, inside and outside of whatever borders we have constructed. And that is good news for all of us. And the prayer of my own heart today is that I will participate with him in seeing and proclaiming and experiencing the favor and love of God in my own life and in the lives of all people. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

Christmas invites us into the ancient tradition of Advent, a season of anticipation that points to both the birth of Jesus and His promised return. We are reminded that Christmas is more than tradition; it is a divine rescue story. In our brokenness and need, God sent His Son, the light of the world, to bring forgiveness, reconciliation, and new life. As recipients of that grace, we are called to remember Christ's coming and reflect His light together as a community marked by love and hope in a dark world. Speaker: Brad Bell

In Luke 2, Luke tells us the greatest love story ever told, the story of God's love ultimately revealed to us in the Incarnation of His Son.
Message from Josh Larsen on December 21, 2025
At Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Charleston, SC, our senior pastor Rev. Craig Bailey continued his mini Advent sermon series titled Love Made Manifest.
In this sermon, Pastor Jeff concludes an Advent series by exploring the theme of divine love through a comparison of microscopic and telescopic perspectives. He argues that the human heart's natural tendency is to act like a microscope, zooming in on personal hardships until they dominate one's field of vision and obscure faith. To counter this, he encourages the congregation to adopt a telescopic view, which brings the immense scale of God's affection and grace into clear focus. By referencing the biblical examples of David and Mary, the speaker illustrates how individuals can intentionally pivot from magnifying their anxieties to exalting the greatness of Christ. Ultimately, the text serves as a pastoral invitation to recognize the incarnation as the ultimate evidence of a love that is larger than any earthly struggle.Support the showThanks for listening!

In the last installment of THE GIFT EXCHANGE, Pastor Philip discusses exchanging loneliness for the LOVE OF GOD.
Scripture Reference: Isaiah 40:1-5 || Dr. Timothy Mathis || Christmas 2025, The Fourth Sunday of Advent: Love
This Sunday, we continue our Advent series in Ephesians 2, focusing on the powerful pivot in verse 4: "But God." We explore how God, rich in mercy and great in love, steps into our world to bring us from spiritual death to life. Whether through the lens of A Christmas Carol or moving personal testimonies, we see that true aliveness is found only when we experience the great love with which He loved us.

Today, Francis Chan and Gavin Ortlund continue their conversation and share practical, everyday ways to connect with God's holiness, His deep love for us, and the call to live in the constant awareness of what Jesus' death and resurrection means for us in the here and now. Drawing from passages like 1 Thessalonians 5 and Ephesians 3, Francis reminds us that God calls us to both warn the wandering and tenderly encourage the fainthearted with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, knowing that even when we make mistakes, He will teach and grow us through them. Gavin speaks vulnerably about navigating public ministry in an age of outrage, and how vital it is to withdraw from the noise and anchor ourselves in the simple, freeing truth of the gospel. Together, they offer practical wisdom for cultivating silence as a form of connection with God, strengthening yourself in Him, and entering His presence with confidence rather than condemnation. If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the pressure to defend yourself, discouraged by online battles that never seem to end, or unsure how to grow in both truth and love at the same time, this episode will help you refocus your heart on Jesus and reflect His love for the world.
This message is from our "God Gave" series.John 3:16 reveals a God who loved first, offering His Son so the world could know Him personally. In this series, we'll see salvation as a gift we receive through faith. We'll explore God's generous love and how it shapes our response as we give our first and best back to Him in gratitude and devotion.Crosspoint City is one church in multiple locations and we exist to relentlessly pursue those far from God to help them know and follow Jesus.

In week one of Home for Christmas, we discover "The Allowing Love of God"—a love that doesn't force, manipulate, or control. Instead, it allows us to choose… even when we choose wrong. It allows life to unfold… even when it leads us into famine, emptiness, or the pigsties of our own decisions. But it's also a love that uses every moment—every mistake, every longing, every “coming to our senses”—to lead us back home.If you've drifted, if you're praying for someone who has, or if you simply need to rediscover the Father's heart, this message is the reminder you need: God's love is proven not just in what He does, but in what He allows—because He is always, always making a way home.Message Notes: https://notes.subsplash.com/fill-in/view?page=HJLwoR-M-eDiscussion Questions: https://storage2.snappages.site/PJBKS3/assets/files/HFC1.pdfFind us on:YouTube: YouTube.com/TheHarborInstagram: Instagram.com/TheHarbor_lifeFacebook: Facebook.com/TheHarbordotlifeWebsite: https://www.TheHarbor.lifeWatch/listen on The Harbor AppNew episode every week!

In today's dynamic episode, Reagan Kramer interviews Lane Boyce, a passionate young evangelist who shares her transformative journey of faith. Lane recounts her struggles with identity, depression, and the powerful moment of her encounter with Jesus that changed her life. Layne discusses how her life was filled with counterfeits until she experienced God's love, which led to a desire for change. Through repentance, Layne describes supernatural changes in her behavior, including clearing up confusion with sexual identity, the removal of cursing and desires for substances, all facilitated by the Holy Spirit. She also tells of her experience sharing Jesus in Salem, Massachusetts and how even witches and those following occult practices are searching for Jesus. Her testimony highlights the power of faith and the possibility of new life through spiritual awakening.The discussion delves into the importance of living a lifestyle of evangelism using our authority in Christ and the urgency of sharing the gospel in today's world, and the experiences of spiritual warfare during outreach efforts. Lane emphasizes the significance of intimacy with Jesus as the source of strength and boldness in sharing her faith and that Jesus has a great purpose for all people and desires no one should perish. This episode concludes with a heartfelt prayer for listeners to embrace their calling and share the love of Christ!Resources:More from the Revelations Podcast: Website | Instagram | Apple PodcastLayne Boyce: https://www.instagram.com/layneboyce_/Your support fuels our mission to share transformative messages of hope and faith.

Francis Chan sits down with theologian and apologist Gavin Ortlund (truthunites.org) for a vulnerable, wide-ranging conversation about communion, church unity, and what it means to love other Christians in a fractured age. Francis shares his own journey wrestling with the Eucharist, reading the church fathers, engaging Roman Catholic and Orthodox perspectives, and discovering the “real presence” within a Protestant framework. Gavin explains why he remains gratefully Protestant and how he understands the richness of the Lord's Supper and church history. Together, they talk honestly about the harsh tone of much online “discernment” content, the temptation to chase clicks by attacking other believers, and the deep grief they both feel over division in the body of Christ. Francis opens up about this new season of life and ministry, sensing a renewed childlike faith, a burden to guard and walk with younger leaders, and a longing to see gospel-centered unity rooted in truth and shaped by the love of God. If you've ever wrestled with questions about the Lord's Supper, Protestant vs. Catholic/Orthodox claims, or how to contend for truth without losing love, this conversation will both challenge and encourage you to fix your eyes on Jesus and pursue a unity that flows from the gospel itself.
