Live the Bible with Wayne Stiles

Have you noticed how much space the Old Testament devotes to talking about food?

Even though the dietary restrictions and kosher laws seem irrelevant for our lives today, there’s a lot we can learn from these sections of Scripture.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’re looking past the dinner plate to what these words have to do with us. (Spoiler: A LOT.).

What does the Bible actually say about Israel, and what does that mean for Christians today?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we hear from Dr. Michael Rydelnik, a radio host, teacher at Moody Bible Institute, and Messianic Jew, and look at one of the most debated topics among Christians today: how should followers of Jesus understand Israel?

This conversation goes beyond headlines and political opinions to examine what Scripture says about God’s promises to Abraham, Israel’s place in God’s plan, and why some Christians believe the church has replaced Israel.

You are struggling. In fact, you often struggle, don’t you? Me too. Struggle is baked in to our Christian lives. In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the best way to struggle.

I know what you’re thinking. The best way to struggle is not to struggle at all! Well, so far that hasn’t worked for anybody – including our perfect Savior Jesus Christ.

The best way to struggle is the way that He did it. Peter shows us how Jesus did it and how we can do it too.

We could sum up most sermons in two words: “Be good.”

It begins with our why—our motive.

The good life. What is it?
