Live the Bible with Wayne Stiles

Have you ever just blown it?

If you need a great dose of encouragement today, you’ll want to hear today's podcast.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at the greatest fish story in Scripture. The book of Jonah is so much more than that—thankfully. It’s about God’s marvelous grace in our lives when we blow it.

We gain a lot by putting one thing aside.

What we guard as a stronghold of our hearts turns out to be one of our greatest weaknesses.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we get back into our series where we take a lesson from each book of the Bible. Up next is the shortest book of the Bible, the book of Obadiah. But it packs a whallop.

Are you ready for this?

Are you the person you want to be?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we see how God helps us become who we want to be. And the way God helps us to be that person? You may be surprised.

The Prophet Amos travels some distance to share the news with Israel, and his words have traveled the centuries to tell us the same message.

The effects of personal compromise can leave us feeling hopeless.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we see what God does when sin has made a mess of our lives. Maybe it wasn’t even our sin—or maybe it was. But God can restore what sin has taken.

How? The Prophet Joel gives us the good news.

Do you know a prodigal or have a prodigal in your life?

In this episode of Live the Bible, we’ll see some good news for God’s prodigals from the book of Hosea. A lot of times people look at God as a mean guy with a big stick ready to clobber us when we do something wrong. Thankfully, that’s not the right picture.

Our God is a loving Father with arms outstretched ready to welcome back the repentant prodigal.

Your Christian life isn't easy. 

Staying close to God in a world dead-set against Him requires a dogged devotion. Thankfully, the Lord shows us how. 

In this episode of Live the Bible, we discover why God is worthy of our personal devotion. The book of Daniel even tells us what we can do in practical, daily terms.

Have you ever felt you deserved God’s rejection? I sure have. It feels helpless. 

In this episode of Live the Bible, we see what it’s like when God does what only God can do. The Prophet Ezekiel stands in front of a valley of dry bones and watches them come to life. God can do the same work in our helpless lives as well.

How can you have hope for the future when literally everything seems hopeless? 

In this episode of Live the Bible, we peek inside the book of Lamentations. In this great little book, the prophet Jeremiah describes in graphic terms what he witnessed—the destruction of his country. 

The devastation caused a feeling of overwhelm. Of hopelessness.

The good news for us? Our hope is based on the faithfulness of God—not on us.

Some days in life feel, well...

Empty. 

In this episode of Live the Bible, we pause and look at the only true source of life and meaning of life. In fact, when our lives feel empty, we should see it as a sign that we’re trying to find satisfaction in something other than its source—and that is God.

This episode from the book of Jeremiah will be a great encouragement to you—especially on those “empty” days.

How do you deal with shame and guilt? 

In this episode of Live the Bible, we look at what the Bible says about a topic we all have struggled with on some level. And even after we have placed our faith in Christ, how do we as Christians deal with shame and guilt?

It’s good news. The great book of Isaiah gives us some powerful principles for practical application in this area.
