TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, Hunter invites you to join him on March 14th, day 74 of our journey through the Bible. Together, we'll warm our hearts by the fire of God's love as we explore Deuteronomy chapters 25–27 and Galatians 5. Hunter guides us through laws of ancient Israel, the heart of worship, and the call to justice and honesty, then pivots to the powerful message of freedom in Christ—a freedom not to indulge in selfishness, but to walk by the Spirit, expressing faith through love. With thoughtful prayer and reflection, Hunter reminds us that we are invited, not to strive for perfection through law-keeping, but to participate in Christ's life through the Spirit. This episode closes with prayers for peace, guidance, and the encouragement to take next steps in faith, always grounded in the unwavering truth: you are deeply loved. So, grab your Bible and join Hunter for today's walk in the Word. TODAY'S DEVOTION: We often think of the sinful nature as all those rebellious, lawless acts—the things we know are out of bounds. And yes, Paul lists those behaviors, those outward acts that are clearly not of God. But let's not miss something subtle yet significant: sometimes, our sinful nature shows up not in lawlessness—but in how we try to justify ourselves through religious law-keeping. The church in Galatia was tempted to trust their own obedience as the measure of their righteousness before God, to rely on their ability to check every religious box. But Paul's message is unequivocal: keeping the law cannot make us righteous, because none of us can fulfill it perfectly. We all fall short. Even the most devout and well-intentioned efforts cannot bridge the gap that separates us from God's holiness. Instead of pointing us to ourselves and our striving, Paul points us to Jesus. He reminds us that our righteousness is found in Christ and in Christ alone. By the Spirit, we are drawn into the very life of Jesus—the truly Righteous One. In his life, death, and resurrection, Christ has done for us what we cannot do for ourselves. As we yield to his Spirit, we begin to walk in newness of life, not striving by our own strength, but participating in the goodness of love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control—the fruit of the Spirit. We lay down both our rebelliousness AND our pious attempts to justify ourselves. Instead, we fix our eyes on what God has done in Christ: how we are included, embraced, and equipped to walk in his ways, not by might, but by the Spirit. The Christian life is not a ladder of perfection we climb, but a life we receive by grace, step by step, trusting the Spirit to bring forth God's purposes in us. Let us hold to this freedom and refuse every yoke of self-made righteousness. Let's stop striving to earn what Christ has already given. May our lives be expressions of faith working through love, freed from the trap of performance, anchored instead in the love of God that claims us—full stop. This is the prayer for my soul. This is the prayer for my family—for my wife, my daughters, and my son. And this is the prayer 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.  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

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to Daily Radio Bible for March 13th, 2025! In today's episode, Hunter guides us through day 73 of our journey in the scriptures, inviting us to gather with brothers and sisters from around the globe and warm our hearts by the fires of God's love. We read through Deuteronomy chapters 22–24 and conclude with Galatians 4, reflecting on the demands of the Law and the liberating grace found in Christ. Together, we'll explore themes of justice, compassion, and responsibility—from caring for neighbors and strangers, to the hard truths of Deuteronomy and the freeing message in Paul's letter to the Galatians. Hunter encourages us to set aside legalism, embrace our adoption as God's children, and rejoice in the freedom and forgiveness given to us. We'll finish with heartfelt prayers, a reminder of the importance of community, and gratitude for the partners who make this podcast possible. So take a moment to pause, join in the journey, and let the message of God's love and joy renew your spirit today. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Set Free Many of us have not been free, and many of us have been sentimental legalists. You know, we flatter ourselves and think that we are better and more righteous than we really are. And that's why Paul says in verse 21, "Tell me, you who want to live under the law, do you know what the law actually says?" And the answer to that question would be no. The demands of the Law are impossible. It is downright hard to read sometimes. Breaking the Law warrants death. And if you want to get sobered up to the demands of the Law and the judgment due us because of it, you do not have to go much further than our reading in Deuteronomy today. So, let us do our best to ditch that sentimental, self-righteous fantasy that we are somehow able to pull this thing off, because we're not. Holiness is so far out of reach of my flesh that I'd sooner turn into a unicorn than a saint if it were up to my effort to be holy. But thanks be to God, the right standing that I couldn't achieve has been achieved and purchased for me. By the one and only man, Christ Jesus himself. He did achieve this spotless life. His sacrifice of death for people like you and me has not only set us free from the penalty of sin, but he has given us his Spirit so that we can live this life now in him. He has made us his children. We've been adopted. This whole glorious transaction creates a new desire within us and a new cry within us that says, "Abba, Father! Father, you, not I." There is new life and there is real freedom. But don't be fooled into sentimental, legalistic, powerless living. Instead, embrace your sonship. Wake up to the power that now resides in you, the Holy Spirit. Rejoice daily that you are forgiven, that you've been made holy. There's nothing that you've done to achieve that. Allow your eyes to be drawn to the glorious grace that has been given to you in Christ. There's only one glorious man who lived the righteous life, and he lived it for all of us in order that we all might be found in him. The Christian life is impossible apart from Christ, but in Christ, all things are possible. So let's live free today. Let's live in him today, because that is where we are. And the prayer of my own heart is that I will see it. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, 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.

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible with your host and Bible reading coach, Hunter. In today's episode for March 12th, we continue our journey through the pages of Scripture, exploring Deuteronomy chapters 19–21 and Galatians chapter 3. Together, we'll unpack powerful and challenging passages—cities of refuge, justice and war in ancient Israel, and the depths of human brokenness seen in Deuteronomy. Hunter helps us look honestly at these texts, reflecting on their darkness and how, through Christ, God brings redemption and new life. As we move into Galatians, we'll be reminded that faith, not the law, brings us into God's promise and family. The episode concludes with heartfelt prayers for peace, unity, and love, and a reflection on the podcast's journey as a daily time of Scripture, prayer, and community. Join Hunter and listeners worldwide as we seek hope and strength in God's love, together—one step, one day at a time. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Is there anything in all Scripture as disturbing as what we've read today in the book of Deuteronomy? I'm not sure there is. In these passages, we see the curse of sin and the depths of darkness that our world has plunged into by our rebellion against God. Yet in Galatians, we see that in that darkness, God has come to us. There is a picture, a shadow of the promise, and that shadow is of a tree—a tree of cursing, a tree where the guilty are executed, a tree where Christ hangs vicariously for the whole human race. There he absorbs the sins of the world in order to free us from the dominion of sin. He breaks its power. He sets captives free. The brokenness we see in Deuteronomy—the war, the idolatry, the slaughter, the slavery—this in no way reflects the heart of God. This is a reflection of the heart of man. God concedes to the reality of the darkness of the human heart. God was in fact conspiring to bring an end to this evil by offering Christ as the atoning sacrifice for the sins of the world, for my sin, for the darkness in my own heart. Christ was hung on Calvary's tree so that I might never be. And Paul's admonition to those who trust in Christ is to keep trusting and never foolishly believe that somehow we can justify ourselves by going back to an old system that was only about concession and the hardness of our heart. It was never about making that heart new. It never had the power to make the world new, let alone my own heart. Paul reminds us that there was never forgiveness in the old path. There was never new life in that old tragic system. There was never the promise of peace on earth. Paul wants us to hold tightly to the cross of the gospel. It is offered to us not on the basis of the law, but on the basis of God's grace and his love, as seen clearly on the cross and seen clearly in the face of Jesus himself. In him, friends, we see the heart, the love, the grace, the mercy offered to the whole world and sinners like you and me. In Jesus, we see God reconciling the world to himself so that we might be set free, the whole world to himself. May we never be foolish enough to think that somehow it can be done in any other way, that somehow in our heart there is a way to be made right with God. The way of new life is not found in our heart. It's found in his, and that is a gift, and it's given to all. This is the truth of your being. You have a new heart. Now let us live in the way of our new being, with faith, hope, and love. That is the prayer that I have for my wife, for my daughters and my son. And that is 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...

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the March 11th, 2025 episode of the Daily Radio Bible! Today, Hunter, your faithful Bible reading coach, invites you to journey through the pages of scripture, exploring Deuteronomy chapters 16 to 18, Psalm 38, and Galatians 2. We'll reflect on the ancient festivals and laws given to God's people, David's heartfelt prayer of repentance, and Paul's passionate reminder that we are made right with God by faith—not by the law. Hunter guides listeners through these passages, delving into the message of God's grace, the danger of fear-based religion, and the radical love that Christ has for us all. The episode also includes a time of prayer, words of encouragement, and a gentle reminder: you are deeply loved by God. So settle in, open your heart, and join your brother Hunter for another soul-nourishing time in the Daily Radio Bible. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The law can't save us, but the law will humble us. The law instructs us. It teaches us our need for God's grace. That is its purpose. It was never meant to save us. Peter would lose sight of this. He was swayed by James' friends. They were people who trafficked in fear and legalism, control. Peter was generous-hearted toward these new Gentile believers in Antioch. He was eating with them. Sharing his life with them until this group shows up. They tapped into the fear-based brain that tries to pacify God with piety and performance by pretending. They conjured up a storm of fear that grabbed a hold of Peter's heart and spread out into Barnabas's heart. Thankfully, Paul is relentless with the gospel, and he verbally slapped some grace into Peter. Even though this was no doubt an embarrassing rebuke for Peter, I'm sure in the end he was glad for it. Living in fear is no way to live. Fear is infectious. It's like a virus. It spreads. And in this case, it spread even to Barnabas, who is known as the son of encouragement. But God's grace is infectious too, and this is an infection we don't want to cure. We need to recognize our need to be renewed in the message of the gospel all the time. If Peter and Barnabas needed to be renewed in the message of God's grace, how much more do you and I need to be renewed in it? That old religion of fear shows up all the time in our lives, so we need to be ready with the gospel, ready to remind ourselves that the gospel is not about fear, condemnation, performance. It's not about any of that. Galatians 2:20 tells us what the gospel is: My old self has been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God who loved me and gave himself for me. See, there's grace, and there is the gospel. The Son of God loves us and gives himself for us, and not just us, but for the whole world. Christ undid what Adam had done. He assumed humanity on his shoulders on the cross, and there we find ourselves in him. Because of the vicarious life of Christ, Paul says we are in him on the cross. He says it plainly here: I have been crucified with Christ. For as in Adam all die, so also in Christ all shall be made alive. Paul holds to this gospel truth. In Christ, Paul sees the completed work of God on behalf of all. And that, my friend, is such good news. It is the antidote to fear-based religion. It is the pathway to freedom, generosity, and love. So let's live in that truth today. What Christ has done for you, what he's done for Gentiles and Jews, what he's done for the world. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul today, that I will see the immense magnitude of the love of God for all, that I'll rest in that, and that I will know its joy. That's a 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.

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...

You'll be encouraged to embrace moments of awakening, let go of old misconceptions, and discover the profound, liberating love of Christ.

Tune in for a time of Scripture reading, spiritual encouragement, and practical steps for living in God's love today. TODAY'S DEVOTION: TODAY'S DEVOTION: God reveals himself. Paul was a slave, and he didn't even know it. And God came and set Paul free—not by offering a doctrinal formula for him to learn, or by giving him some new insight into scripture even after all his deep studying. No, Paul says, "I received my message from no human source. No one taught me. Instead, I received it by direct revelation from Jesus Christ." It was God revealing God to Paul. And, friend, that's how it is for all of us. Maybe you did hear a message, maybe you read a book or found yourself opening up to the gospel over time. Those things do happen. But underneath it all, whenever there is true awakening, it is God himself revealing himself—opening eyes, removing the scales, freeing us to see who he is and who we are in him. Chains break, and lies fall away. We begin to see that we were blind—not because of lack of effort or knowledge, but because only Christ can truly open our eyes. Paul's story reminds us: before his encounter with Christ, his vision of God was shaped by lies and misconceptions. He believed in a God obsessed with theological purity, one who would even commission people to kill in His name. But that vision wasn't true; God is not like that. The real God, revealed in Jesus, is the God who values and loves people. He is full of grace and truth and so much grander than our categories or our obsessions with being right. Like Paul, it is only when Jesus reveals himself to us—breaking through our blindness—that we can come to know the God of love and grace who lays down his life for us. This revelation sets us free to live a new kind of life—a life where the chains of deception and shame fall away, and we begin to walk in the light and love of God. The journey of faith is about seeing more of who Jesus really is, and as we do, we are made new. That is my prayer: that my eyes would be opened more and more to the glorious love of our Lord Jesus. That's the prayer I have for myself, for my family, and for you. May your eyes see the true God revealed in Christ, and may that vision change everything. 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.

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 for March 9th, 2024, your Bible Reading Coach, Hunter, guides us through a meaningful journey in the scriptures, exploring Deuteronomy chapters 10 through 12 and the triumphant resurrection story in Mark 16. Hunter shares insights into the Shema, the significance of obedience, and God's unwavering faithfulness, reminding us that we are never left behind—even in moments of grief and doubt. We're also joined by our Prayer Assistant, Heather, who leads us in prayers for strength, peace, and unity, helping us start the day aligned with God's purpose. Whether you're a longtime listener or just joining our journey, this episode offers hope, encouragement, and a powerful reminder that you are deeply loved and never alone. Stay with us for scripture, reflection, and heartfelt prayer—let's walk this path together and step into the new day with faith and joy! TODAY'S DEVOTION: He has not left us behind. That's the essential message echoing from the empty tomb. The women arrive, grieving and uncertain, confronted with sorrow and a sense of abandonment—the loss so raw, feeling as if God Himself has departed, that Jesus who once delivered, healed, and loved has left them alone. Every funeral, every moment in the face of death, carries that sting of doubt: "Has God left us? Is this the end?" But the resurrection upends our fears. There, dressed in white at the tomb, an angel greets them—not with despair, but with the unthinkable news: "He isn't here… Go and tell his disciples, including Peter, that Jesus is going ahead of you to Galilee. You will see him there." The risen Christ is not found among the dead, nor does He abandon His own in the darkest hour. Instead, He goes before them—and before us—calling us to hope again. God doesn't do abandonment, friends. He rescues us completely, even from the deepest despair, from the very thought that we are left behind. The resurrection means the presence of God is a constant, not a memory. He meets us right in the places of pain and loneliness, convincing us by His Spirit how good this news really is—a promise and a reality that God is here and always will be. May our souls be convinced of this truth. May our families rest in it, and may our communities be shaped by it. The God who overcame the grave walks ahead of you today. He sees you, loves you, and never leaves you. May you live in that light. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a 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.  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  

In the second half of our conversation with Michael, author of "The Mighty Van Halen," we take a deep dive into the band Cinderella and their unique place in 1980s rock history.We start by analyzing Cinderella's first album "Night Songs," exploring what made their sound so distinctive compared to other hair metal bands of the era. Michael and Sean break down the band's blues influence and how it set them apart from the typical glam rock sound, despite often being lumped into that category. We discuss their connection to Bon Jovi and how they were discovered.The conversation explores Tom Keifer's unique vocal style, drawing comparisons to Janis Joplin and discussing how his distinctive singing technique—which involved rupturing his vocal cord—created such a memorable sound. We trace the band's trajectory from their popularity peak in the 1980s through their decline after the third album.A major focus of our discussion is why Cinderella never achieved the lasting popularity of bands like Poison or Mötley Crüe, despite being more musically sophisticated. We explore how their bluesy sound didn't fit the typical hair metal image and how being incorrectly categorized may have hurt them. Their 1990 album "Heartbreak Station" represented a shift toward blues rock that may have confused fans, while bands like the Black Crowes with a similar style found more lasting success.We compare Cinderella to Mötley Crüe, agreeing that while Cinderella was more musically accomplished, Mötley Crüe better represented 1980s hairband culture. The conversation takes an interesting turn as we discuss how the CD format might have changed listening habits—the ability to skip tracks leading to less engagement with deeper album cuts.We analyze specific tracks including "Last Mile" with its strong background vocals and relatable themes of travel and hard work, and "Shelter Me," comparing its positive, uplifting message to the Rolling Stones' darker "Mother's Little Helper." We appreciate Cinderella's more optimistic lyrics, especially contrasting them with some of the darker themes prevalent in 1990s music.The episode wraps with Michael promoting his book "The Mighty Van Halen: One Fan's Journey" and final reflections on our formative music experiences.Linktree: https://linktr.ee/seangeekpodcastPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/seangeekpodcastWe are a part of the Boneless Podcast Network: https://goboneless.lovable.app/Merch:Tee Public: https://www.teepublic.com/seangeekpodcastRed Bubble: https://www.redbubble.com/people/seangeekpodcast/shop@seangeekpodcast on Twitter, Instagram and FacebookMentioned in this episode:New Merch AdAn ad that incorporates Red Bubble and Tee Public

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 podcast! In today's episode, Heather guides us through the 8th day of March, marking day 67 in our journey through the Scriptures. Together, we reflect deeply on Deuteronomy chapters 7 through 9 and the powerful events of Mark 15. Heather reminds us that these sacred texts bear witness to Jesus—the source of our life—and invites listeners from around the world to ask the Holy Spirit for illumination as hearts and minds are renewed in God's love. The episode explores Israel's history of rebellion and God's unwavering mercy, revealing how Moses pleaded for his people and how God's plan to rescue and bless humanity extends far beyond Israel. As we witness Jesus's sacrificial love and advocacy on the cross, we're called to see the true heart of God—a heart overflowing with mercy, forgiveness, and restoration for all. Heather leads us in prayer, encouraging us to walk humbly in God's mercy and share his love with the world. Whether you're familiar with these stories or hearing them for the first time, this episode offers a moving invitation to see God's faithfulness afresh and to step forward into the day knowing: you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: We often read the stories of Israel's rebellion, their stubbornness, and their constant turning away from God, and it can seem as though their failures are unique or especially grave. But as Heather reflects, these narratives are an invitation to recognize our shared humanity—how everyone, everywhere, tends to reject God time and again. Yet in the midst of rejection, God's response is not what we might expect. Though it appears, even to Moses, that God's heart is set on rejecting the people, the truth is that Moses—like us—is seeing only partially, "through a glass darkly." He has not yet glimpsed the fullness of God's heart, the depth of mercy and love revealed in Jesus. One day, Moses—and all of us—will see with clarity. We'll see the heart of God unveiled in Jesus: the Son who offers himself for all rebellious humanity, standing as our advocate on the cross. It's there, in the Christological light of eternity, that we witness God's heart exceeding every hope, every expectation, every image Moses could have imagined. Moses repeatedly pleaded for mercy; he was a good advocate, faithful and persistent. But God's mercy was not because the people deserved it, but because God's promise to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob was unbreakable. His plan was always bigger—extending not just to Israel, but to all people everywhere. Mark 15 shows us how God answers the pleading of Moses, how he responds to rebellious humanity: God offers himself. Jesus gives himself wholly, pouring out sacrificial love on the cross, accepting punishment on our behalf, ransoming us from sin and death. He forgives, sheds his blood, and pours out his Spirit—even for those who consistently reject him. Jesus stands in our stead; he rescues us from our delusions; he comes not to judge, but to save. Someone greater than Moses is now our advocate. Jesus undoes what Adam did. His vicarious life is not just for Abraham's descendants, but for all humanity. "For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive." Jesus is a better Moses, revealing the true heart of the Father—a heart of mercy, a heart that desires to bless and rescue. Micah saw it long ago: God requires us to do right, love mercy, and walk humbly with him. Today, we are invited to walk in this mercy, to rest in the relentless love of God, and to see ourselves—rebellious and beloved—as recipients of grace through Christ. Let us live as people forgiven, embraced, and empowered by the self-giving love of Jesus. May we know the Father's heart, and may we reflect his mercy to the world. 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.

“Worthy of It All”Mark 14:1-11Having recently completed our series “None Like Jesus” let's continue to “Behold Him” by embarking on a new study through the Gospel of Mark. Mark's Gospel is the shortest of the four Gospels and it is action-packed from start to finish – as evidenced by the word “immediately” used over 40 times. Mark wrote to believers, probably Roman believers, who were no strangers to persecution. And he wanted to disciple his readers to be strong in their faith by encouraging them to look to their Mighty Messiah, the Son of God, who remained steadfastly faithful even while becoming their Suffering Servant who died for them. Mark's Gospel is a call to all believers to fearlessly “Follow Jesus” because they can trust Him completely.

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 for March 7th, Hunter invites us on day 66 of our journey through scripture. Together, we'll explore key passages from Deuteronomy 5 and 6, Psalm 43, and Mark 14. Hunter helps us reflect on the foundational moments when Moses recounts God's commandments to Israel, the psalmist's longing for God's presence, and the powerful, sobering scenes leading up to Jesus' betrayal and crucifixion. As your Bible reading coach, Hunter weaves together these texts to reveal timeless truths about God's love, human frailty, and the radical invitation to participate in Christ's self-giving, forgiving love. This episode also includes moments of guided prayer and encouragement to let God's joy be your strength in daily life. Whether you're listening at home or on the go, you'll be reassured of one thing—"You are loved, full stop." Join us and let these words of life shape your heart, renew your hope, and lead you deeper into God's story. TODAY'S DEVOTION: We are all guilty of betrayal. Peter, Judas, all the disciples—even you and I—have in common this: despite our best intentions and strongest resolves, we have fallen away, betrayed with our words, our actions, sometimes even with a kiss. Isaiah says, all we like sheep have gone astray; we've left God's path to follow our own. That's the story not just of the disciples but of humanity. Each of us has reached for that fruit of deceit, separating ourselves from the source of our life, straying in ways large and small from the One who loves us. But Jesus steps into this place of failure and separation. He takes the cup—the cup that for him means suffering and death, the cup of bitter sorrow—and he transforms it. It's a cup filled with his blood, shed for the world, for you and for me. And in that act of self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love, Jesus draws us into life. He defeats death not with violence or retribution, but with his own surrender and love. He drinks down the cup of suffering so that he might hand us the cup of life—a life that invites us to participate with him in that same self-giving, forgiving, co-suffering love. We, who have freely received, are now invited to freely give. We are called not just to receive his forgiveness, but to live out that love, to be people shaped by radical hospitality, mercy, and hope. Let's learn these ways. Let us practice the rhythm of receiving his love and sharing that love with the world. That is my prayer for myself, for my family, and for you: that together, we would enter ever more deeply into the life Christ offers—self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love—for our neighbor, our enemy, and ourselves. 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...

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the March 6th, 2026 episode of the Daily Radio Bible with your Bible Reading Coach, Hunter. In today's journey, we come together from all corners of the world to open our hearts and minds to the pages of Scripture, seeking to be renewed and trained in the ways of Jesus—the ways of life and love. This episode features readings from Deuteronomy chapters 3 and 4, Psalm 36, and Mark chapter 13. Hunter guides us through dramatic moments in Israel's history—their victories, God's commands, and the urgent call to remain devoted. Psalm 36 offers a reflection on the unfailing love and faithfulness of God, while Mark's gospel delivers a powerful reminder from Jesus about keeping watch and staying alert, because no one knows the hour of His return. Throughout, Hunter weaves in personal stories and practical encouragements, reflecting on the active, vigilant faith Jesus calls us to. The episode closes with heartfelt prayers and a gentle invitation to engage in simple acts of connection and humanity, reminding each of us that, above all, we are loved. Settle in as we step into these sacred texts, find encouragement for our daily walk, and remember together to keep watch—faithful and awake—trusting God's enduring presence with us. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Keep watch. That's the word of Jesus to us as we move through our lives. After reading Mark 13, we hear him say: What I say to you, I say to everyone: watch. Sometimes we can imagine that keeping watch just means sitting and waiting, maybe even nodding off as the night gets long. But as Hunter reminded us with his story from the Bering Sea, keeping watch on a ship was anything but passive. It was a calling to active responsibility—alert to every course correction, faithful to look out for hidden dangers, even when things seemed still and quiet. In the spiritual life, Jesus calls us to this same kind of active attentiveness. Peter, James, John, and Andrew come to Jesus full of questions about the future: When will all things be made right? When is the kingdom coming in fullness? Jesus doesn't give them a timetable. Instead, he calls them—and us—to a posture of vigilant faithfulness. No one knows the exact hour or day, not even the angels, not even the Son, but only the Father. What does it mean, then, to keep watch? It means being faithful in the routines of our lives, staying vigilant in prayer, making space to listen for God's word, and doing the next right thing in the service of others—our families, our neighbors, our communities, our church. The stakes are high, but the comfort is real: Jesus is with us through the long watches of the night. He keeps watch with us, teaching us to trust him, to lean on his presence, and to find "songs in the night" as we wait. This podcast itself is meant to be a sort of spiritual wheelhouse—a routine and a place where we daily set our eyes on Christ, letting his words order our thoughts and align our course. Through the encouragement of the Spirit, through song, through scripture, and through prayer, we keep watch together, not just for our own sake but for the sake of those God has entrusted to us. So let's stay present. Let's be awake to the life God is placing before us. Let's keep watch—not in anxiety, but in hope and trust, knowing he is near, he is faithful, and in his time, he will return. 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.

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 for March 5th, 2025, Hunter embraces listeners on day 65 of a year-long journey through the Scriptures. Today's reading leads us through Deuteronomy 1 and 2, revisiting Moses' reminders to the Israelites as they prepare to enter the Promised Land, and Mark 12, where Jesus offers profound teachings about authority, resurrection, love, and true devotion to God. Hunter guides us through the narrative, reflecting on Israel's wandering, God's faithful provision, and the call to trust Him fully—even when the journey gets long or the challenges seem impossible. In Mark's Gospel, Jesus addresses tough questions from the religious leaders, teaching us about giving to God what is truly His—ourselves—and highlighting the importance of loving God and our neighbors above all. After the readings, we're invited into a thoughtful time of prayer led by Unknown, centering our hearts on peace, unity, and surrendering our lives back to God. Hunter also marks the significance of Ash Wednesday, inviting everyone—regardless of tradition—to walk together through the reflective season of Lent as we prepare our hearts for Easter. Join us in this sacred space as we listen to God's Word, offer our hearts in prayer, and remember the deep truth: you are God's beloved, and you are not alone on the journey. TODAY'S DEVOTION: The coin belongs to Caesar, but you—you belong to God. That's what Jesus wants you to see. As Hunter points out, the religious leaders tried to trap Jesus in a web of money, power, and politics, but he would not be caught in the snare of their idols. Instead, Jesus took a simple coin and asked whose image was stamped upon it. "Caesar's," they answered. But then Jesus took this moment to direct their hearts—and ours—to a far deeper reality. You are made in God's image. His imprint is upon you, just as surely as Caesar's image is on that coin. Therefore, your truest belonging is not to any ruler or any fleeting thing, but to God himself. As the catechism proclaims, "We are not our own, but belong to God." This is our hope in life and death. You are his—his child, his family, his beloved. So what do we give to God? Ourselves. Returning to him what is already his. When we do this—when we yield our hearts, our loves, our lives—we are freed from the idols and traps that entangle so many: money, politics, power. Instead, we find our truest and most joyful life in him. As Hunter reminds us, our real life is "hidden with God in Christ." This is the deepest truth about who we are. Let us learn to walk this out, returning daily to the God who made us, offering ourselves in love and trust. That is my prayer for my own soul. That is my prayer for my family, for my wife, my daughters, and my son. And that is my prayer 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.

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! On this March 4th, 2024 episode, host and Bible Reading Coach Hunter invites us on day 63 of our journey through the scriptures. Today's exploration takes us through Numbers 34–36, where God lays out the boundaries for the Promised Land, assigns cities of refuge, and addresses the inheritance of land among the tribes of Israel. Then, we turn to Mark 11 and witness Jesus' entry into Jerusalem, his confrontation in the temple, the mysterious withering of the fig tree, and a powerful lesson on faith and forgiveness. Along the way, Hunter offers thoughtful reflection on what it means to participate with God—to bear spiritual fruit, even when it seems unreasonable or impossible. The episode closes with prayer, encouragement to invest in your soul, and heartfelt thanks to the faithful community making this daily journey possible. Join in for scripture, prayer, and a reminder that, above all, you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Jesus speaks to the tree and Jesus speaks to his disciples. If you caught me speaking to a tree, you might think that's strange, and you would be right—it is. And yet, Mark tells us the disciples heard him say it. There was something lingering in that moment, something that carried over into the next day when the disciples saw the tree withered from the roots. They had to bring it to Jesus' attention. "Rabbi, look, the tree, it's withered." Jesus then turns to his disciples and says, "Have faith in God." There is a mysterious connection in this story between Jesus' words to the tree and his words to his friends. Why does he curse the tree, especially since Mark tells us it wasn't the season for figs? It's a mystery. Yet the tree, which had no fruit, failed to be what it was created to be. The Creator comes, looking for fruit—even out of season. Is it the tree's fault, or is there a deeper lesson here? We see that the tree was expected to participate with the Creator, to respond to him, to be ready to bear fruit when he came looking—even if it seemed unreasonable. Likewise, to the disciples, Jesus says: "Have faith in God." The Creator walks with his creation and asks us to cooperate, to be and do what we were made for. Does it seem impossible to bring forth fruit, to move mountains, to forgive someone who has hurt us deeply? Not if the Creator asks it of you. Not if the one who has made you and called you his own asks you to walk in this way. The life of a disciple is a life of participation with God. It is not about magic tricks or parlor games of faith, but about saying yes to God's invitation to be and do what he asks. When you pray, Jesus says, forgive. That's how participation works. Because you are forgiven, loved, and made new, you are invited to participate in his life, to forgive as you have been forgiven, to love as you have been loved, to be fruitful in season and out of season. This life with God may look strange to the world, but it is so much bigger, freer, and filled with more life than we can imagine. That's a prayer I hold for my own soul, for my family—for my wife, my daughters, my son. And it's a prayer I have for you. May we become who the Creator has made us to be. May we say yes to his call, participate in his life, and find ourselves truly alive. 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.

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, where we journey together through the pages of scripture and let the Word of God direct our hearts to the living Word, Jesus. In today's episode, Hunter guides us through Numbers 32 and 33, exploring the story of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh as they negotiate their inheritance and responsibilities on the east side of the Jordan. We then move into Mark 10, where Jesus' teachings challenge our understandings of marriage, wealth, service, and faith. Through the encounter with blind Bartimaeus, we witness the importance of spiritual sight—of hearing and recognizing Jesus before ever physically seeing. Wrapping up with heartfelt prayers and encouragement, Hunter invites us to live in the freedom, hope, and love found in Christ, encouraging us to share this good news with others. Whether you're new to the Bible or a seasoned reader, there's something in this episode that will inspire, challenge, and remind you: you are loved, no doubt about it. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He opens the eyes of the heart. In today's readings, we see the story of Bartimaeus, a blind man who, before his eyes are ever opened, seems to see what others do not. The miracle begins not with sight, but with hearing—Bartimaeus heard about Jesus, this one who pays attention to the poor, stands up to religious leaders, and is a friend of sinners. He recognizes that Jesus is the one the world has been waiting for, the Son of David, and cries out for mercy. When Jesus calls Bartimaeus to himself, he asks him, "What do you want me to do for you?" Although the answer may appear obvious, what's truly remarkable is that Bartimaeus, though blind, truly sees. He calls Jesus "My Rabbi." Somehow, the eyes of Bartimaeus's heart were already being opened by the love and presence of God. When God's heart awakens us and we hear of his love, our eyes are opened, too. Bartimaeus's physical sight is restored, but even more, his understanding—his inner vision—guides him. And upon receiving his sight, he does the only thing there is to do: he follows Jesus. Bartimaeus gets up and follows Jesus on the road, even toward Jerusalem and the cross. He is being made new. The story shows us that real sight, real transformation, often begins when we have ears to hear the good news of who Jesus is. That's a prayer for all of us—for open eyes, for hearts that catch a glimpse of the love of God, so that we, too, will see and, seeing, will follow. May your sight and your steps be guided by the love and mercy of the One who calls you by name. That's a prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters and my son—and that's a prayer 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.

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 for March 2nd, 2026! On this sixty-first day of our journey through the Bible, Hunter guides us into the heart of scripture, reading from Numbers chapters 30 and 31, and Mark chapter 9. Today's passages explore the nature of vows, the consequences of agreements, and the fierce battle against the Midianites. In the Gospel of Mark, we witness Jesus' transfiguration on the mountain, a dramatic healing, and powerful teachings about faith, humility, and combating sin. Hunter draws thoughtful connections between Old Testament laws and Jesus' words, showing how our need for freedom from sin is met by going to the Father and confessing our burdens. The episode is wrapped with heartfelt prayers for the listeners, encouragement to be instruments of peace, and reminders of God's unwavering love. Stay tuned for reflections, community shoutouts from Michael McClatcher, and invitations to join this growing circle of faith. Whether you're new or a regular, today's journey invites you to experience grace, hope, and belonging at the heart of God's word. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He frees us from the agreements of sin. In Numbers 30, scripture starts with instructions that might seem obscure. There's guidance about vows and how a married woman or an unmarried daughter might be released from a binding agreement—by bringing it to her father or husband, who could nullify it if they did not approve. It was simple: freedom from obligation came through someone in authority. In Mark 9, Jesus confronts sin with equally strong language. He says, "If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off." He isn't advocating literal amputation, but rather using powerful words to emphasize the seriousness of sin's grip. Sin, Jesus shows us, operates like a contract, a vow—an insidious agreement between ourselves and the parts of us that are prone to wander. Sin says to the hand, "Do this and I'll reward you with that." Sin bargains with the eye, "Look here and you'll gain something." We make these agreements, often without realizing, and they bind us. But severing limbs is not the answer. The answer is severing the vows and contracts we have unwittingly made with sin. And the way to do that is the way shown in Numbers 30: we bring our vow to the Father. We confess to Him the promise, the contract that is ruining our lives—and He, our good Father, is the one with the authority to nullify it. He breaks the contract. He releases us from sin's power and control. This is not about magic words; it's about what God has done in sending His Son. Jesus paid the price for our sin. He met the demands of the agreement, and He alone has the power to free us from the bonds we've created. He is the one who can tie those deceitful contracts to a millstone and throw them into the sea. Are you trapped in the grip of sin? Take every agreement you've made—all the bargains, all the lies—and bring them to your Father. Confess them. Your confession doesn't change God's attitude toward you; it changes you. It wipes your eyes clear to the truth of your being: that you belong to Him. Regardless of sins committed, God will never cease to be your Father. He has united Himself with us once and for all through Jesus Christ—His incarnation, death, resurrection, ascension. Jesus has defeated sin, death, and the grave. Sin blinds our eyes to the reality that we are swept up into something new, but confession is our way of seeing again. On the cross, Jesus broke the power of every agreement. Let us return to the Father and remember who we are in the Son—free, alive, hopeful, and full of love. 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.  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

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast for March 1st, 2026. On this special episode, Heather guides us through Day 60 of our journey in the scriptures. As we gather from all corners of the world, our focus is not just on the words themselves, but on how they point us to Jesus—the source of our life. Today's readings come from Numbers chapters 28 and 29, along with Mark 8. Heather begins by reminding us that the scriptures bear witness to Christ, and invites the Holy Spirit to illuminate God's Word so our hearts and minds may be transformed. We explore the detailed offerings and festivals described in Numbers, and witness Jesus' compassion and teachings in Mark, including the feeding of the 4,000, lessons on spiritual "yeast," and a powerful call to humility and gratitude. To wrap up, Heather leads us in prayers for guidance, unity, and thankfulness, encouraging us to be instruments of peace and to let the joy of the Lord be our strength as we go forward.

There's something that can damage your hearing and your vision. It can even harden your arteries. Well, that might not be a clinical explanation of yeast in our lives, but it is a spiritual observation—an illustration that Jesus uses with his disciples. Watch out, beware of the yeast of the Pharisees and of Herod. They haven't a clue what he means. Jesus says, don't you know or understand even yet? Are your hearts too hard to take it in? You have eyes, can't you see? You have ears, can't you hear? Don't you remember anything at all? It seems that the yeast of the Pharisees could damage their hearing, their vision, their hearts, and even their memory. So Jesus wants them to be vigilant, to keep that yeast out of their houses and out of their lives. In Exodus, the children of Israel were told that before they could celebrate the Passover meal, they had to remove all yeast from their homes. Then they could sit down and enjoy the meal before them. It was a meal prepared from the hand of God, the result of his work and not their own. That's what getting rid of the yeast represented. The yeast represented the Pharisees' teaching of self-righteousness and self-justification. It represented their trying to make themselves right with God by their own piety, their attempted obedience to the law. Attempted obedience has never been our means of justification. No, we must rid ourselves of the yeast of self-righteousness in order to receive the righteous feast and life that is offered to us in Christ. That's why Jesus says, beware of the yeast. He calls us to rid ourselves of it so that we can see and hear clearly, to live well and hear well. He wants it gone so that we can enjoy the new heart he has given us, and enjoy the meal that comes from his hand. It is a meal that is abundant and feeds multitudes, with basketfuls left over. Let's be aware of the yeast of the Pharisees; it so easily spreads into everything we do. Instead, let's look to our Passover Lamb, prepared and offered to us out of the abundant and loving heart of our Father. He is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. Jesus has taken it away, and he offers us the feast of his life even now, today. It cannot be earned. It simply must be received. Ours is just to say thank you. Let gratitude and thankfulness be the disposition of our heart. Jesus took the bread and the cup, and he looked up to heaven and he gave thanks. So let us look up to heaven today and give thanks for the living bread, for the life that is given to us in Christ. It is a life without deceitfulness, without self-righteousness, and without self-promotion. It is a life of humility, kindness, and grace. Let us receive from him all that he has for us today. Be on guard. Be aware, and be alive in him. 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.

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast for February 28th, 2026! In this episode, Hunter, your Bible reading coach, guides us through a significant stretch of scripture, exploring Numbers chapters 24 through 27 and the well-loved passage of 1 Corinthians 13. Together, we uncover stories of blessing, rebellion, and hope from Israel's wilderness journey—including Balaam's prophecy, the consequences of idolatry, a new census, and the bold petition of Zelophehad's daughters. We also witness the passing of leadership from Moses to Joshua. Shifting to the New Testament, we're reminded by Paul's poetic words that love is the greatest virtue of all—outlasting even faith and hope. Hunter reflects on the challenge of seeking clarity in life and scripture, and invites us to hold tightly to the peace Christ offers, even as our understanding remains incomplete. The episode closes with a time of heartfelt prayer, encouragement to walk in God's love and joy, and a special thank you to the listeners who make this daily journey possible. Get ready for a thoughtful, hope-filled exploration of God's Word—and a reminder that, above all, you are loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: We see things as a puzzling reflection, Paul tells us in 1 Corinthians 13. And as we move through passages like today's readings in Numbers, it's clear that our understanding—of God, of ourselves, and of our journey—can often feel incomplete, mysterious, even perplexing. The days of our lives, the choices we make, the events that unfold: all of it can sometimes seem like a riddle, a story only half-told. But the invitation of God is not to clarity and certainty in this life, but to peace. Christ invites us to rest in his embrace, even (and especially) while things are unclear. He calls us to discover his way of love, to value faith and hope and love above all things. "These are the greatest things," we are reminded. Our task is not to figure it all out—because, as we read, knowledge is partial and incomplete. Instead, our task is to keep our eyes fixed on Christ, to learn his way of love, and to offer that same love to the world. Beyond clarity today is Christ himself—who stands with us in the midst of uncertainty, who brings us peace that passes understanding, who encourages and strengthens us in every circumstance. It is Christ who helps us to endure, to remain hopeful, and above all, to love—because love endures through every circumstance. So, let's keep our eyes on him. Let's trust that, in God's good time, all things will become clear, and all will be well when Christ is all and in all. In the meantime, let faith, hope, and love be our guiding lights. That's the prayer for my own soul. That's the prayer I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer 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.

TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible podcast! On this February 26th episode, your Bible reading coach Hunter invites you to join in on day 57 of our year-long journey through the Scriptures. Today, we'll explore the detailed laws of purification from the book of Numbers, witness moments of deep need and miraculous intervention in Mark's Gospel, and find comfort in the heartfelt cries and praises of Psalm 28. In today's readings, we encounter people reaching out for healing—both the well-known and the unnamed—reminding us that Jesus' hands of compassion are extended to each of us. Hunter offers spiritual reflections, guiding us to warm our hearts by the fires of God's love, and leads us in thoughtful prayer to carry us into the day. Whether you're new or returning, this episode is not just about checking off a reading plan—it's about meeting the God who is with us, finding hope, encouragement, and the reassurance that you are loved. Settle in, and let's go on this journey together! TODAY'S DEVOTION: A man named Jairus, a synagogue ruler, falls on his knees before Jesus and begs him: Please come, put your hands on my girl. She's 12 years old, so that she will be healed and live. Mark tells us of another person who's reaching out her hands. He doesn't give us her name. This unnamed woman has been waiting, bleeding, for 12 long years. Everything she has is gone. Every possible option has been exhausted, and she's dying too. She needs Jesus to reach out his hands and touch her. Jesus responds to both of them—the prominent man Jairus and the unnamed woman. He's there for them both. He's there to do what he set out to do: to reach out his hands of compassion and stop the bleeding, to stop death. And he's going to do it by pouring out his own blood and offering up his own life so that all people everywhere, the somebodies and the nobodies, will know his redeeming love. He sees you today. He's reaching out his hands to you today in love. He's coming into your home. He's taking you by the hand, and he's speaking words of life: Talitha koum. Little girl, rise up. That is the gospel. That's the heart of our God. This is the message that we are so privileged to take to the world today. Hear his word to you. He's come to stop the bleeding. He's come to stop death. He's come to call you to life. And the prayer of my own heart today, for my own soul, is that I will hear him well. That's a 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.
