Podcasts about what is the bible

EVERYDAY DISCIPLES S1:E3 Following the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day. And Jesus said to them, “Follow me, and I will make you become fishers of men.” - Mark 1:17 SHOW NOTES Welcome to the Everyday Disciples podcast, where we talk about what it means to follow the way of Jesus in everything, everywhere, every day. This month, we are talking about what it means to be steeped in Scripture. WHAT IS THE BIBLE? We believe the Bible to be the inspired and only infallible and authoritative Word of God. We believe the Scriptures of the Old and New Testament as being verbally and completely inerrant in the original writings and of supreme and final authority in faith and life. We believe that God has not added to, deleted from, or altered the canon of the Bible with subsequent writings and revelations. [2 Timothy 3:15-17, 2 Peter 1:21] The Bible is a unified story that leads us to Jesus. It is unique in that it is historical and divine, meaning it was written by real people at real points in History over a 1000-year period by over 40 authors in 3 different languages (Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek). But most importantly, it is the Word of God.  5 WAYS TO INTERACT WITH SCRIPTURE Hear the word Read the word Study the word Memorize the word Meditate on the word H.E.A.R. The WordWhen we read through Scripture, we want to go at a pace that allows it to read us. Below is a simple acronym that will help guide our time as we read Scripture and seek to live it out. Each day, we will follow the pattern of HEAR. H - Highlight Read through the passage for the day. As you read, pay attention to what stands out. Maybe highlight or underline a word or phrase that catches your attention. E – Examine it Examine what the passage has to teach you. Study words and their root meaning, and/or study the context of the passage. Pay attention to the Holy Spirit's prompting as you read and press into what you can learn from scripture. A – Apply it Ask yourself how you might apply what you have read to your day and ask the Holy Spirit what you should take away from the passage. Write down what you want to apply, or make note of it some other way. R – Respond in prayer Close your time by using scripture and what you have read to lead your prayer time. Invite the Lord to continue speaking to you through the day on what you've studied.  PRACTICES FOR THE MONTH: 1. BEGIN EACH DAY WITH SCRIPTURE Start every day with the Word. Scripture before your phone, TV, or emails. Scripture before everything. If you are unsure where to start, we have a Bible reading plan here: Crossroads Bible Reading Plan 2025 2. READ A WHOLE BOOK IN ONE SITTING We have become a culture of soundbites and short attention spans. Many of the letters of the New Testament were written to be read aloud in one sitting. At some point, this month, read or listen to an entire book straight through. See the attached graphic to help you choose. 3. MEMORIZE SCRIPTURE Over this next month, memorize two passages of scripture. Psalm 1:1-2, Romans 15:13  RESOURCES: Books: How to Read the Bible for All Its Worth by Fee and Stuart The Visual Guide to the Bible by Tim Challies How We Got the Bible by Neil R.

Many of us believe the Bible, but if we were pressed to explain WHY we believe the Bible, things would get awkward quickly. We can easily go through life not really convinced that the Bible is trustworthy, but just hoping that it is. To understand the validity of the Bible, we have to answer the questions of how the Bible came to be, how it came to us, and how it came together. Understanding this can grow our trust that the Bible is truly the word of God miraculously preserved through generations. ___________________________________________________To support this ministry and help us continue our God given mission, click here: http://bit.ly/2NZkdrC Support the show

In the episode, I present a summary of the story of God, Jesus and people as outlined in the collection of writings known as the Bible.  In it we learn that we all do wrong, we all do things that merit punishment.  We rebel against God and go our own way.  Yet the very God we defy is the one who, along with His beloved Son Jesus, went to extraordinarily loving lengths not only to save us from punishment, but to pave the way for eternal life.  To see David Hicks on YouTube, click here.

Amy welcomes friend and Executive Pastor, Matt Woll!  With over 2 decades in church leadership, Matt shares more with Amy on the idea of deconstruction of faith and what it means. With people's changing perceptions and relationships with the church, navigating this process can be tricky.  Like tearing down an old house and sitting in the rubble as opposed to building something new, Deconstruction can be a very painful process for those who don't have any plans for a reconstruction.   Books Referrenced 1.

In today's episode of Staying at the Table we continue the conversation from our last episode with Brian Chilcote and Rev. Terri Moss Witmyer talking specifically about “What is the Bible?” as we continue to wrestle with the deconstruction and re-understanding of what it is we call faith.

Why does God allow evil to occur? Are we living in the end times? How do we deal with scriptural contradictions? These questions and more are what we're talking about on this week's "You Asked For It" message.

The Bible is the story of God, it's reliable, and it's alive because Jesus is alive!

Today's verses are the response to a question from a friend of mine. She sent me a text that said this, “Biblical question for you”  I said, “Go for it.” She asks, “In Exodus 32, God declares he is going to murder all the Israelites down the mountain that are worshipping idols. Moses then pleaded with him & reminded him about his promises with Abraham, Issac and Jacob. Had God forgotten those promises? What made God change his mind?”“Give me time to study it?” I replied.“Absolutely.” She replied, “Enjoy the challenge.” Let's dive in. This is the VERSED podcast; a daily pursuit to become more perceptive to what the Bible says. If you would like to dive deeper into certain verses in the Bible, have a verse you would like to submit to have included in a future episode, have questions about the Bible that you would like answered in a bonus episode, or simply want to connect with me... text VERSED to 88474 or click hereAlso included in that link is a list of resources and references I use in this podcast and can help you grow deeper in your faith as well. As always – ratings and reviews are massive! They really help others discover the podcast and ultimately help us improve VERSED. Thanks in advance for that
