One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on the Daily Radio Bible, a daily Bible‑in‑a‑year podcast with 20‑minute Scripture readings, Christ‑centered devotion, and guided prayer.This daily Bible reading and devotional invites you to live as a citizen of Jesus' kingdom, reconciled, renewed, and deeply loved. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In this episode, Heather brings us together for the 53rd day of our journey through the scriptures, focusing on Numbers chapters 10 and 11, Psalm 27, and Mark chapter 1. As we gather from around the world, Heather reminds us that we approach the scriptures not for their sake alone, but because they point us to Jesus—the true source of life. Throughout this episode, we witness the Israelites' journey from Sinai, their challenges and complaints, Moses's struggles as a leader, and God's powerful response. In Psalm 27, David's deep trust in God encourages us to seek refuge and confidence in His presence. And in Mark 1, Heather highlights the beginning of Jesus' ministry, his compassion for the outcast, and the transformative power of his touch. We end with reflection, prayer, and encouragement to live each day renewed by God's love—abiding in Him, carrying His peace to the world, and remembering: you are loved. Join us as we open our hearts to scripture, the Holy Spirit's illumination, and the renewing love of Christ. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The story of God's Spirit shared among his people runs like a current through today's readings. In Numbers, Joshua hesitated, unsure if the others were worthy to receive the Spirit that had been given to Moses. But Moses, with a heart tuned to God's desire, longed for all of God's people to be filled with that same Spirit. That longing—the dream that none would be left out, that everyone would know the life that comes from God—is fulfilled in Jesus. Jesus stands in the power of the Spirit, bringing good news, healing, and restoration to all kinds of people: fishermen, the sick, the demon-possessed, and even a leper—a man considered so unclean, so unreachable. It's that very leper, made clean and whole by Jesus's touch, who becomes one of his greatest heralds. He's compelled to tell everyone what's happened, to spread the word that Jesus is willing and able to heal and make new. This is the story still being told today. Those who have been made clean, healed of brokenness and isolation, can't help but declare what Jesus has done. All the former "lepers"—the ones who know what it means to be outcast, who have experienced grace—are letting the world know the compassion of Jesus. This isn't a story reserved for the past. Even now, right where you are, the hands of Jesus reach out with love, to make you clean, to restore your soul. Maybe this is happening for you in this very moment. That is the hope and purpose of this podcast: to remind us again and again that it is Jesus who heals, who cleanses, who renews. He never stops reaching out in mercy. And as we experience this new life, we're invited to live in the Spirit, to abide with him, and to let our own lives become testimonies—just like the leper—of what God has done by his grace, for us and for the whole world. Let us live in the newness of what Jesus is doing. Let his compassion and transforming life flow through us, and may we spread that good news, letting the world see the love that reaches out and makes us whole. That's my prayer for my own heart, for my loved ones, and for you today. 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.  OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.   Leave us a voicemail HERE: https://www.speakpipe.com/dailyradiobible Subscribe to us at YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Dailyradiobible/featured OTHER PODCASTS: Listen with Apple Podcast DAILY BIBLE FOR KIDS DAILY PSALMS DAILY PROVERBS DAILY LECTIONARY DAILY CHRONOLOGICAL  

The Untouchable - Pastor Chad Hertler The Gospel of Mark - Mark 1:40-45

Speaker: Robert ConnJesus steps into an ordinary workday and calls ordinary men to follow Him. They were not searching for a spiritual moment. They were casting nets and living predictable lives when Jesus said, “Follow me.” This message explores the kind of people Jesus calls: those faithful in the ordinary, open to interruption, willing to walk in community, and ready to surrender what is working for something greater. The question is not whether Jesus is calling. The question is how we respond.Need Prayer?

In a world shaped by the attention economy, it can be hard to believe prayer really matters—but Genesis 18 shows a God who invites conversation and responds to intercession. In Mark 1:35–39, we see Jesus step into the eremos (silence and solitude), pray through interruptions, and come out with clear priorities for ministry. This message offers a realistic path forward: carve out 5–15 minutes of daily prayer, prepare for interruptions, and bring one decision to God before you act. // SCRIPTURE REFERENCES // Genesis 18:17;23-24;26, Mark 1.35-39, John 5:19 More info at the Bible Project: https://bibleproject.com/videos/mark/ // TAKE A NEXT STEP // Want to visit or discover more about Columbia View?

Bringing Jesus Home - Pastor Chad Hertler The Gospel of Mark - Mark 1:29-39

In Mark 1:16–20, Jesus calls His first disciples in the middle of their ordinary workday. With no hesitation, they drop their nets, leave behind everything familiar, and follow Him into the unknown. This 2 Minute Disciple devotional invites you to step into that moment, feel the weight of the choice, and take your own step of faith by “dropping your net” today.

Jesus shows great compassion and care for a man who is condemned to death by the law. He has leprosy and he has lost the life he once knew. Bearing under the weight of great suffering and death, this man in Mark 1 has heard about Jesus and will come to Him, plead, kneel, and say, "If You are willing, You can make me clean."

Today I’m taking us into Mark 1, because sometimes life gets a little off-kilter—and when it does, I really believe we need to return to the basics and refocus on who Jesus is. Mark is the shortest and most action-packed Gospel, and it’s such a powerful place to start (or start again), especially if you’re feeling spiritually disoriented or overwhelmed by all the competing voices around you. In this first chapter, we watch the story move fast: prophecy fulfilled, John the Baptist preparing the way, Jesus baptized, Jesus tested in the wilderness, and then Jesus stepping into ministry—calling ordinary disciples and bringing wholeness everywhere He goes. And by the end of the chapter, we land on this stunning moment where a man with leprosy asks, “If you are willing…” and Jesus responds, “I am willing.” That’s the heartbeat of this episode: Jesus is willing to cleanse, heal, forgive, and restore. The question I want to leave us with is: Am I willing to come to Him? What We Will Cover in Our Study of Mark 1 - A clear overview of Mark 1 and how quickly it introduces Jesus’ identity, authority, and mission. Understand why Mark opens with Old Testament prophecy and what that signals about Jesus as Messiah. See the purpose of repentance as a heart-level “turning” that prepares the way for Jesus in our lives. Notice the pattern: affirmation → wilderness → ministry (Jesus is declared beloved, then tested, then sent). Learn what discipleship looks like in Mark: ordinary people called to follow Jesus up close. Recognize Jesus’ authority in real-life categories: spiritual oppression, sickness, fear, and isolation. Catch the significance of Jesus touching the leper: compassion over ceremonial distance; holiness moving toward suffering. Walk away with a personal invitation: Jesus is willing—will I bring my need to Him?

The gospel of Mark is one of the three synoptic gospels, “Synoptic” basically means “seeing the same thing,” the other two of which are Matthew and Luke.  Historical evidence from early church fathers affirms that the apostle Peter is the one who passed these reports on to his attendant and writer, John Mark. Mark's gospel is the shortest, but the most action-packed, as he includes a number of accounts and moves quickly from one scene to the next. connecting his stories with phrases like “immediately,” “just then” and “as soon as.” We also get a sense for how hectic life must have been for Jesus, as crowds push in around him demanding more and more of His time.Mark 1 - 1:08 . Mark 2 - 8:01 . Mark 3 - 13:04 . Mark 4 - 18:13 . Psalm 17 - 24:59 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by Bobby Brown, Katelyn Pridgen, Eric Williamson & the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org
