Ep. 159. Introduction AND Prepisode to 1-2-3 John (Women's Bible Study)

Welcome Back!  Or just Welcome Welcome if you're new around here. We are back from our extended Spring Break with a brand new study of the New Testament books of 1-2-3 John.
I am super excited to introduce these letters to you today where the Apostle John takes on false teachers who were infiltrating the churches around Ephesus where John was now living. These false teachers were confusing believers to the extent that believers were asking the question "What gospel do we believe?"
John answers this question in a way that leaves no room for error, and is meant to comfort his readers that the true gospel is that which was heard from Jesus, the Son of God.
Some of the major themes that run through these letters are:
*the true doctrine of the Son of God
*abiding
*the "new-old" commandment
*fellowship & joy
*light & darkness
*love and obedience
*truth & lies
*antichrist & the world
Jot these down as we will refer to them often as we move through these letters.
Be sure to listen all the way to the end of the episode for a little twist to get us started and don't forget to invite a friend to join us!

Ep 157. BONUS EPISODE!! Genesis to Revelation: The Original Food Network (Women's Bible Study)

Hey Hey Walkies! It's Bonus Episode time. This is one that I have had on the back burner for a while now. We first talked about it way back in Episode 41, where we see Abraham preparing a meal to serve to the LORD and two angels who come to visit. It was an intimate time of fellowship and connection, and I mentioned how often we see Jesus use this tool of sharing a meal in the gospels to do the same thing, connect with people and then teach them about his kingdom.
Food is one of my favorite topics. I love to eat food, I love to cook food, I love to share food, I love to grow food...I pretty much love everything about food except doing the dishes. But just like everything else in the fall of creation, our relationship with food is broken. It is not what it was meant to be. Just like everything else in creation, God has to redeem and restore food and its purpose because humanity has twisted it from God's original design.
When you start exploring this theme, you will find the Bible holds an entire Theology of Food. God has a lot to say about how we relate to one another and how we should relate to him....through food imagery. It is a physical and spiritual need that all humans share. Now we don't get to explore the entire Theology of Food today, but we do get to dive into the one aspect of how God is restoring fellowship with his people through the table. He constantly invites us to sit at his table and feast in his presence. You may find it surprising how common this theme is in Scripture. 
I hope you enjoy this bonus episode, and if you do, please share it with a friend. Invite them to the table. There is always room.

Ep 155. Daniel Chapter 12: The Finale! (Women's Bible Study)

Well here we are today. finishing another book of the Bible together. Today we come to the conclusion of Daniel, where the final vision has Michael the Archangel rising up to defend and deliver the saints of God during the tribulation, where Daniel gets a clear vision, more clear than anyone else in the Old Testament, of resurrection life, where the wise will shine and reflect the glorious light of Christ.
Now, it's not all completely clear to Daniel, and we have to deal with that in the conversation, but have no fear...this is a Tea Cup ride (you'll have to listen to get that reference!) and much of Daniel's confusion has been cleared up for us in the work and person of Jesus Christ.
The time has been set for the end. In the meantime, we are to live into the calling God has placed upon our life.

Ep. 154. Prepisode for Daniel chapter 12 (Women's Bible Study)

This is it! The final prepisode for the Book of Daniel. This one makes me a little sad...I wish we had just a little bit more!
For starters this week, please look up the word "ESCHATOLOGY." This may or may not be a word you are familiar with, but as students of the Bible, we should be familiar with this good Bible word.  If you continue to study the Bible and dig into commentaries or Seminary discourses, it will be a word you will encounter, and it plays into our reading this week in Chapter 12.
Your reading time is quite short this week, so I don't feel too terrible about giving you some supplemental Scripture references to help you out. And yes, there are quite a few of them, but you don't have to read them every day.  There are five questions with extra references attached, so you could do the extra reading on one question each day, and you will cover all of them.  Here is a list of the questions and the additional references:
Who is Michael and what is his role? 
Daniel 10:13 and 21    Jude 1:9     Revelation 12:7-9
What is the "time of trouble" that is coming?
Jeremiah 30:4-9        Matthew 24:15-22    Revelation 16:17-21
What book is the angel referring to and what happens to the people who's name is written in it? What happens if a person's name is NOT written in it?
Ezekiel 13:9    Luke 10:20    Philippians 4:3    Revelation 3:5 & 20:11-15
What is verse 2 talking about?
Isaiah 26:19   Ezekiel 37:1-14    Matthew 25:31-46    John 5:26-29
At the end of the chapter, we get some numbers thrown at us. Without bogging yourselves down, what do you think these numbers mean? Are they literal or symbolic? Can you calculate these numbers in another way?
Revelation   2:10,    11:1-3,    12:1-6
I know that is a lot, but you can do it!!

Ep 153. Daniel chapter 11: The Book of Truth (Women's Bible Study)

We are winding down to the end of the Book of Daniel as we come to the penultimate chapter. This is an EPIC chapter where the Book of Truth is opened and Daniel is given very specific prophecy of what will happen to his people in the latter days.
I've done a lot of the hard work for you in tracing the ancient history and filling in names and kingdoms with more specific details than simply "King of the North" and "King of the South."
As these two kingdoms vie for ultimate authority, there is drama, alliances, arranged marriages, divorces, disinheriting children, breach of contracts, more divorce, more disinheriting, political pawns, assassination, revenge, looting and pillaging, mobilizing troops, traitors, murder, taxes, cunning and intrigue, intentional dishonor, breaking the holy covenant, defiling the temple, flagrant idolatry, and finally perseverance of the remnant. Whew!! 
Are you ready to follow along for this wild ride through chapter 11?

Ep 152. Prepisode for Daniel chapter 11 (Women's Bible Study)

We are winding down another book of the Bible as we come to the next to last chapter of the Book of Daniel this week.
This chapter sorta has bragging rights to the most detailed section of prophecy in all of the Bible. The chapter covers a time-span of about 375 years, and vs 1-35 contain some 135 prophecies that have been fulfilled! 
Now, I will admit it can seem a little bulky if you don't know a lot of very specific history, but what is my rule? (DON'T GET BOGGED DOWN!!) 
This episode gives you some information to help you keep it straight as you read, and gives you some tips to help sort out the passage of time.
Also keep in mind: "The king of the South" always refers to the Ptolemaic Dynasty of EGYPT; "The king of the North" always refers to the Seleucid Dynasty of SYRIA. And since it covers 375 years, the crowns are passed down throughout the verses. (I know you're smart enough to figure that out, but it's just a little extra for no charge!)

Ep 151. Daniel chapter 10: A Peek into the Spiritual Realm (Women's Bible Study)

What a fascinating chapter this week in our Women's Bible Study. Daniel Chapter 10 is one that can easily be skimmed over, or even skipped over, as its short narrative is a prelude to chapters 11 and 12. What a terrible and sad mistake this would be. Though it be short, it is deep and beautiful. 
In this episode, we talk about some of the interpretative differences which challenge us...what was Daniel mourning over, who was the man in linen, how many people are speaking with Daniel?
These are not differences that should cause division, but I enjoy a healthy discussion and would always be open to that if you disagree with my interpretation.

Ep 150. Prepisode for Daniel chapter 10 (Women's Bible Study)

It's pretty light reading this week as we prepare for the next couple of weeks as we wrap up the Book of Daniel. Daniel receives another round of heavenly visitors who explain the things taking place in the heavenly space that human eyes cannot see, in other words, spiritual warfare. It's going on right in the very context of chapter 10, and it will continue until the very end when the last enemy is defeated and God fully restores his kingdom and fills it with his saints.
Here are the Scripture references you can read for additional insight:
Revelation 1:13-15
Ezekiel 1:26-28
Leviticus 16:4
