EPISODE 6 — Moses & The Exodus: Salvation Foreshadowed

Mwgam and Heather dig into the Exodus story and how it points directly to the Christmas story — the Lamb, the blood, the deliverance, the God who rescues His people. This episode traces how Moses prepares the world for Christ. Includes a kid devotional about God’s protection and the true meaning of “the Lamb.”

EPISODE 5 — Judah: The Lion Is Coming

God chooses the most unlikely son to carry the royal lineage of Jesus. This episode unpacks Judah’s transformation, Jacob’s prophecy, and the Lion wrapped in swaddling cloths. The kid devotional helps your children see Jesus as the promised King long before Bethlehem.

EPISODE 4 — Jacob: The God Who Meets Us in the Struggle

Jacob’s life is messy, complicated, and painfully relatable — which is why his story is full of Advent hope. We walk through his dreams, his wrestling, and the moment God renames him Israel. A kid devotional closes the episode to help your family trace the promise together.

EPISODE 3 — Isaac: Grace Over Striving

Isaac’s birth shows us that God’s plan is built on grace, not human effort. We look at Isaac vs. Ishmael, law vs. promise, and how Advent reminds us that God comes down because we can’t climb up. Includes a longer Scripture moment for your kids to read alongside you.

EPISODE 2 — Abraham: The Promise Keeper

God calls an ordinary man, makes an impossible promise, and keeps it in ways that still echo into Advent. This episode explores faith, waiting, and the God who does the impossible. Ends with a kid-friendly devotional you can read in just a few minutes before bed.

EPISODE 1 — Eden: When Hope Was First Promised

In the middle of the world’s first heartbreak, God whispered the very first promise of Christmas. This episode walks through the fall, the curses, and the hope threaded into Genesis 3 — and why Advent begins with longing, not celebration. Includes a simple kid-friendly devotional to help your family connect the story together.

In Episode 5 of The Scarlet Thread, Megan stands in the valley with David and shows how this familiar battle points to the gospel.

Through vivid storytelling and raw reflection, she reminds us that Jesus is the greater David—the Champion who entered our valley, crushed our enemy, and handed us His victory.

This is a message for anyone who feels small, outmatched, or weary of fighting: the battle belongs to the Lord, and the cross has already won.

In Episode 4 of The Scarlet Thread, Megan walks through the wilderness with Israel—and with Jesus.

It’s a journey through hunger, temptation, and trust, showing how deserts aren’t punishment but preparation.

From manna to the Rock to the forty days of Christ, this message invites weary hearts to gather daily grace and believe that even in the dry places, God still provides water from the Word.

In Episode 3 of The Scarlet Thread, Megan walks us through the first Passover—the night judgment and mercy met at a doorway covered in blood. From the cries in Egypt to the quiet faith inside Israel’s homes, this message shows how every drop of that lamb’s blood pointed to Jesus, the true Passover Lamb. Through storytelling and reflection, Megan reminds us that the blood still covers, still protects, and still marks our homes with peace.

In Episode 2 of The Scarlet Thread, Megan climbs Mount Moriah with Abraham and Isaac to uncover a story that was always about the cross. Through the pain of surrender and the miracle of substitution, we see the Father who provides the Lamb. Featuring insights from Wiersbe, Spurgeon, and MacArthur, this episode invites you to lay down your Isaac and trust that God’s provision is already caught in the thicket.
