Love God First
How do I live in today’s world as a Christian and not only live but thrive in the gifting, calling and love of God? Join me as we journey together through entire books of the Bible, studying with the understanding that the people in the Bible were real people and had minds and emotions like us. We are going to study their stories to find the truths that apply to our lives today. The key is to meet Jesus and encounter Him so we can be changed by Him more and more into our true selves, not hampered by sin and fear. We will occasionally have guest speakers who will expand on the topics we find in our Bible study together, but most of the time we will go verse by verse, chapter by chapter through a book of the Bible to learn, apply and respond to God. Even the tough topics and verses will be explained and discussed!

It can be difficult to navigate certain educational topics and classes as a Christian because sometimes it feels like our faith is flying in the face of science and reason. But is it? You might be surprised to find out that many scientists who made great discoveries in history were Christians. And just because a person believes in God doesn't mean they throw our their brains. Join me as we talk about faith, science, and how to deal with any lingering doubt.

You might be wondering why those statements make any difference to you. We'll discover the answer together, and we'll see the difference it makes in recognizing our ultimate purpose.

Every relationship begins with first getting to know a person. That's not just true of people; it's true of podcasts. With people you're asking: Do you like the person? Are they funny or serious? Do they listen well? And on a podcast you ask questions too. What is the host like? What kind of content is there? How is this podcast different than the plethora of podcasts already out there? You can find out the answers to all these questions on this episode. But the most important question that will be answered is this: why is it worth your time to study through a book of the Bible in bite-sized pieces, starting with Genesis?
