If the Bible tells us anything, it tells us that the evil you've experienced in your life—from family, friends, even from your own doing—God can spin that on its head to bring about a wonderful result if you'll just trust Him.

This episode of Live the Bible takes us into a new year with a new series where we’ll take one message from each book of the Bible. First up? Genesis, of course, where we look at more than creation, the fall, and the flood, etc. We’ll look at how Genesis relates to your life today.

Well, I’ll just go ahead and say it: “Happy New Year!”

And Because God’s Word is eternal, the Bible speaks to us about the year ahead of us. Psalm 119 says, "Your Word is like a lamp unto my feet and a light to my path." But how does God's Word shine a light onto our next steps? This week’s episode of Live the Bible tells us.

Christmas—it's the most wonderful time of the year! Or...

Maybe it’s more accurate to call it the most stressful time of the year.

If you’re struggling this Christmas season, believe me—you’re not alone. Meaning, of course, you’re not the only one who struggles. (I share my story in this episode of Live the Bible.) 

But you’re also not alone because God is with you. In fact, that’s what “Immanuel” means—“God with us.”

Christ is God’s gift for us. And if we can keep that in mind, Christmas really can become a wonderful time, because it reminds us to have hope in His coming for the second time.

Most of us are familiar with Charles Dickens,’ A Christmas Carol.

It’s the story in which old Ebenezer Scrooge gets a visit from the “Spirit of Christmas Past” as well as two other “spirits.” 

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the HOLY Spirit of Christmas past. Why? 

The Spirit of God worked in the life of a young couple, and their amazing response offers us rich insights when we look at our future. Think about the year you just came through! What will next year hold? 

Whatever 2025 brings, this episode gives us what we need to know to face the future with confidence.

It’s tempting to see your life full of holes—and missing what you need to move forward.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we tackle the thinking that our current season of life lacks what we need for fulfillment, love, or whatever else we see ourselves without.

We tend to look at yesterday or tomorrow as the ideal—when in reality, the Apostle Paul tells us we have so much opportunity in our laps right now.

Why does a good, loving God allow such evil? 

And since God is all-powerful, how come He doesn’t deal with evil once and for all by this evening?

Have you ever asked, “Is Jesus Really the Only Way to Heaven?"

And if He is, what about the person who has never heard of Jesus? Thankfully, we are not left to ourselves to figure out these questions. In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the Bible’s answer to these questions. Frankly, they have greater application in our lives than any other question we could ask.

The Bible’s answer is crystal clear, and—it’s good news.
