Join Dave and Mandy as we discuss Acts 15, focussing in particular on the relationship between Acts and Galatians 2, and the relationship between Paul & Barnabus.

And we're back!  Join Dave and Mandy as we discuss Acts 13 and the many Old Testament prophesies that find their fulfilment in Jesus' rejection by his own people, as well as reflecting on our place in God's mission as we seek to share the good news of Jesus.

Join Dave & Mandy as we discuss Genesis 48-49:28. We reflect on Jacob's blessing on his sons, the details in chapter 49, and the great blessings that flow to us who are in Christ.

Join Dave and Mandy as we explore Genesis 42-47. We make some interesting textual observations, consider God's capital "P" plan, and then answer some of the questions that came in.

Join Seb and Mandy on a mini episode looking at Genesis 39-41. We reflect on the three chapters, the two years in jail, and the one secret to understanding the whole account, with some reflections on dealing with suffering and hardship.

Join Dave, Seb and Mandy as we reflect on Genesis 37 and discuss some practical tips for fighting against bitterness and envy. We also look at a couple of questions that came in, and zoom in on two disturbing 'side stories' in this part of Genesis. 

With Mandy in Morocco, David and Jeremy are left in charge of the podcast.  We have a closer look at the story of Jacob's ladder (or is it 'staircase'?), his stone pillow (or is it a weapon?), and solemn vow to the Lord (or is it a cynical bargain?).  We trace the story of the blessing of the land so far in Genesis and reflect upon what it means for the Lord to be the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.  We then finish with a Q and A based on some of the questions that were sent through on Sunday.

Join Dave and Mandy as we discuss Genesis 26:1-28:5. We focus in on Ch 26, and see what the sandwiching of this account of Isaac between the two Jacob and Esau narratives shows us, and examine the concept of blessing, addressing some of the questions that have been raised over the weekend.

Closer to normal length this week, as we get back into the rhythm of podcasting!

The return of Sermon Seasonings after break is a bumper edition, as Dave, Seb and Mandy reflect on Genesis 25:19-34.

Join Dave and Mandy as the look at some textual details in Mark 14:27-52 concerning ears and naked young men, before turning to the use of the cup metaphor throughout the Old Testament, and then think about how we are to keep watch as we await Jesus' return.
