Introduction to the Dialogue of Job

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

The Bible is God’s message, God’s word (II Timothy 3:16-17; II Peter 1:20-21). However, in the Bible there are speakers that say things that are incorrect or particularly designed to deceive. For example, the words of the serpent, the devil in Gen. 3:4-5; Matt. 4:1-11. The words of false prophets are recorded in I Kings 22:9-12 or Jer. 28:1-4 and false accusations against John and Jesus are recorded in Matt. 11:18-19 and Luke 7:33-34. When the Bible reports something happening it is true but there are those in its pages who do not speak on God’s behalf. Job is the most difficult book of the Bi

The Challenge of Healthy Boundaries | "You're a Quote Man"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

259 | Love Well Within God’s Limits Boundaries can feel like barriers, but they're actually God's way of teaching us how to love and live more freely. We explore the spiritual tightrope between sacrificial service and self-destruction, asking: How can we take up our cross without letting it lead to burnout? We dive into Galatians 6 to distinguish between bearing our own "rucksack" (personal load) and carrying a brother's crushing "burden". We cover discernment, the idol of approval, and why saying "no" out of love is necessary to avoid falling into co-dependence or resentment. Let's find the f

FLYING: Eagle's wings. "Jonathan Livingston Seagull." Turbulence. Pan Am.

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

Register your feedback here. Always good to hear from you! If I could choose any superpower, I might pick being able to fly. I doubt I'm alone in that. No wonder flight is used so often in the Bible as a spiritual metaphor. This week we'll learn how to escape the problems of this life by looking at the world the way God does; how to embrace the desire to fly God put in us and use it properly; how to accept adversity on the way to spiritual achievement; and how to reject dreams of world domination in favor of being just one cog in a gigantic wheel.

S5 E35 - The Great Glass Bear Phenomenon

Set Your Mind Above

Send us Fan Mail Starbucks released a limited edition collectors item in a glass iced coffee bear cup. People went nuts over them, because each store only got a few each. But others saw this also as an opportunity to fool others, setting up fradulent sites to con others into purchasing what they thought was the real thing. We need to see the Kingdom and the Gospel in this way as well. We must search high and low and be willing to do anything to gain entrance into the Kingdom. Yet we also must be wise, because many have gone out to deceive the unsuspecting so that they fall for what is not the

Hal Hammons · Citizen of Heaven

This is my final installment of my conversation with Scott Taylor and Tyler Hall, who partner in the work with the West Mason church of Christ in Mason, Ohio. We finish by talking about the most popular game in town, or so it seems — the Blame Game.
