Episode 175 | The Languages of the Bible Jun 06, 2022

Show notes

Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek: the languages of the original text of Scripture are RICH with meaning and help us understand God's Word even better. While you don't need to be a Biblical language scholar or take a class on Ancient Hebrew to be able to read the Bible, we find that looking up words in their original form can be so meaningful in studying Scripture. We talk about the basics of these languages and why we believe it is so helpful to have a basic grasp on Biblical languages. Join Autumn and Annabel in this week's episode!

Episode 174 | The Geography of the Bible May 30, 2022

Show notes

Maybe you didn't choose geography as your favorite subject in high school...BUT if we want to deepen our knowledge of Scripture, we've got to understand the geography of the Bible. Without an understanding of geography, we cannot fully comprehend Biblical history. When we know the names, locations, and topography of biblical places, it gives us visualization and comprehension that we wouldn't have otherwise. Join us for this episode as we discuss WHY this is a topic worth your time!

Episode 173 | Jesus throughout Scripture May 23, 2022

Show notes

Is Jesus present in only one half of the Bible? Just because Jesus' birth starts the New Testament doesn't mean that He is not woven throughout the Old Testament as well! Jesus is the main character in all of Scripture, and His Gospel is showcased over and over again. "Christ is patterned, promised, and present" throughout the Old Testament! Join us to learn about theophanies, Christophany, and other references that lead us to the Son!

Episode 172 | The Melodic Line through Scripture May 16, 2022

Show notes

A melodic line is a succession of notes forming a distinctive sequence. While there are a lot of different notes and sounds that make up a song, the melody is described as a “distinctive sequence.” You can hear it and recognize it above all the other notes. One could say the melody is the THEME of a song. So is there a melodic line in Scripture? Yes!

Jesus is the “melodic line.” Jesus is that central theme. All of it points us back to Jesus.

In this episode, we are digging into how Scripture clearly predicts, prepares for, reflects or results from the person and work of Jesus.

Episode 171 | The One about the New Testament Apr 11, 2022

Show notes

There is a New Testament because of Jesus. Without His coming to earth, we could still be in the years of silence, waiting for Christ to return and save us from our sins. The fact there is a NEW testament from God means that He has already fulfilled something HUGE He promised! Join us as we break down this half of the Bible and what it contains!

Episode 170 | The One about the 400 Years of Silence Apr 04, 2022

Show notes

There are 400 years between the Old and New Testament. Why did God stop speaking to His people during this time? How did the time change the Israelite people for the coming Messiah? Where the Old Testament leaves off makes it feel very separate from the New, and understanding these 400 years makes the different cultural and political scene make more sense. Join us as we discuss this time between testaments!

Episode 169 | The One about the Old Testament Mar 28, 2022

Show notes

If you've been intimidated by the Old Testament, this is the episode for you! We give you a *brief* overview of the Old Testament- what it is, who wrote it, why the Bible is split in half, what the major themes, eras, and topics are! This is a condensed version, but there is SO much to learn about God and His character through this section of His Word.
