    Episode #63– The Heavens Declare: Stars in the Bible


    God has communicated his Gospel message to humanity on many ways— the birth of Jesus being the foremost. He has, however, written a message in the ‘heavenlies’ using STARS. In fact, the Bible is full of ‘stars’ as signs, wonders… and a genuine symbol of His message to mankind. This episode focuses on the stars and constellations referenced in the Bible! The Heaven declare… so let’s learn and listen!

  • Episode 62 - Connecting the Dots of Christmas

    Episode #62: ‘Connecting the Dots’ of Christmas


    It is hard for most of us to separate the ‘traditions’ of Christmas from the ‘Truths’ of the Biblical Christmas story.  It can be difficult… but it is important for us to ‘connect the dots’ of God’s incredible plan— the culmination of the ages— when God became one of US.
    In this episode we attempt to the ‘connect the dots’ of Christmas so that we can understand the ‘big picture’.

  • Episode 61 - Songs of the Bible

    Episode #61: The Songs of the Bible

    From the beginning of Creation to this very moment, music pervades everything that God does. He is the author, conductor and first chair instrumentalist of the symphony of Life. His book the Bible contains numbers of songs. Some inspire… some instruct… some motivate. All are a reminder that God loves music!  In this episode, we examine a few of the most powerful songs contained in Scripture.

  • Episode 60 - False gods of the Bible

    Episode #60 —False gods in the Bible

    ‘You shall have no other gods before me’ (Exodus 20:3)! The first Commandment— of the Ten — warns the Hebrew children of the Old Testament not to worship or make images of idols.
    They didn’t listen!
    Today’s episode examines some of the idolatrous gods of that infiltrated the culture of God’s people! And, of course, we still have idols today— maybe by different names— but gods whose worship still causes great harm to the people of God.

  • Episode 59 - Science and the Bible

    Episode #59  — Science and the Bible


    For a book that is over 2000 years old, the Bible speaks  accurately about science issues that are, even today, topics of great interest. The nature of space and time… the connection of human beings to the ecology of planet earth… even the very DNA that makes us ‘us’!  All are amazingly addressed in the Bible. In this episode, it’s Stephen Hawking meets King David— science and the Bible.

  • Episode 58- The Journeys of the Eleven Disciples

    Episode #58- The Journeys of the Eleven Disciples


    We know a great deal about the journeys of the Apostle.  We know something of the experiences of the Apostle John in the years after Jesus returns to Heaven. But we know almost nothing— from the Biblical record anyway— about the journeys of the other remaining disciples of Christ. In this episode we look at the spread of the gospel by the ‘other’ disciples. Relying on scholarly tradition, we follow the ministries of Thomas, Matthew, Andrew and John. Their work (and death) for the Kingdom was profound… world changing… and a loving testimony of their faith in Jesus.

  • EPISODE 57– The Geography of Israel

    EPISODE #57– The Geography of Israel


    Ok… the subject of ‘geography’ isn’t  very exciting, is it? But to understand the Bible it is important to have a grasp of this amazing land we today call Israel. It is, after all, the PROMISED LAND— God’s gift to Abraham almost 4000 years ago. In this episode we look at the reasons ‘why’ this land is strategic and special. We also talk about the ‘future’ struggles— control, prosperity and the rebuilding of a ‘Temple’.  Let’s take a journey through the ‘land’ of Israel.

  • Episode 56 - How We Got the New Testament

    Episode #56: How We Got the New Testament


    Within 40 years of the death and resurrection of Jesus almost all of the New Testament (with the exception of Revelation) was written, recognized as Scripture and was being used in the New Testament Church.  Firsthand accounts, authored almost exclusively by those who knew him, traveled with him and encountered him. This episode looks at WHY we can trust the words of the 27 books of this most amazing and Holy gift: the New Testament!

  • Episode 55 - The Return of Jesus part 2

    Episode #55– The Return of Jesus (Part 2)


    What will life on Earth be like when Jesus returns? Chaotic… frightening… apocalyptic? Maybe not. In this episode we look at Jesus’ words concerning his return, found in Matthew 24. ‘As it was in the days of Noah’— so what were condition like then? What parallels might we find to our generation? Could we be living in the days of the most amazing events since the Resurrection: the return of Jesus?
    It is very ‘possible’.

  • Episode 54: The Return of Jesus

    Episode #54: The Return of Jesus


    The return of Jesus is REASONABLE, UNDERSTANDABLE and an absolutely NECESSARY component to understand the schematic of the Bible. In fact, if Jesus does not return a second time , he really did NOT come the first time. All of the New Testament— from Acts to Revelation— hinges on the PROMISE of Jesus to return. In these next two episodes, we will look at some common themes concerning Jesus’ eventual return to Planet Earth… how the ‘days of Noah’ are similar to today… and a ‘supposial’ of how the Return of Jesus might play out in our lifetimes. Thanks for listening!
