In this passage from John 8, Jesus addresses a group of Jews who believe in him but struggle to fully grasp his teaching. He declares that the truth will set them free, prompting confusion as they insist their heritage as Abraham’s descendants guarantees their freedom.

This conversation highlights the shift from physical lineage to spiritual transformation and underscores the importance of making room for Jesus’s word in our lives. With its timeless message, this passage challenges us to consider how Christ redefines freedom and truth.

In today’s discussion of John 7, we explore the tension between seeing and missing the truth of Jesus. The Pharisees, confident in their knowledge and authority, dismiss Jesus, even as the temple police are disarmed by his words and Nicodemus hesitates to judge him unfairly. The passage highlights the danger of rigid certainty that blinds us to God’s movement in our midst. Through the lens of these characters, we see the value of openness and humility as keys to discipleship and the risk of legalism that hinders faith.

In this episode, we explore John 7:10-24, where Jesus makes a surprising move by attending the Festival of Booths in secret, despite previously telling his brothers he wouldn’t go. As tensions escalate, we see a divided crowd: some praise Jesus as a good man, while others accuse him of deception. Fear grips people, preventing open conversation, as Jesus's presence becomes increasingly controversial. Jesus engages the religious leaders directly, asserting that his teaching comes from God and challenging their hypocrisy, especially regarding Sabbath laws. He leaves them—and us—with the command to judge with righteous discernment, highlighting the spiritual blindness of his opponents.

In today’s study, we dive into one of Jesus' most provocative teachings found in John 6.

We also discuss the challenge of understanding John’s Gospel, which often requires spiritual insight and a willingness to grapple with complex theological truths.

In this episode, we dig into the fascinating way John tells the story of Jesus walking on water—a familiar miracle but with some big differences in John’s version. Clint and Michael discuss why John leaves out key details found in other Gospels, like Peter walking on the water, and instead focuses on Jesus' powerful words, “It is I; do not be afraid.” What’s behind this unique telling? They explore how John emphasizes the disciples' journey to understanding Jesus as “I Am,” a claim deeply tied to God’s identity. The conversation also touches on the complex relationship Jesus has with crowds in John, who often seek him for what he can do rather than who he is.

In this study on John 6, Clint and Michael dive into the familiar story of the Feeding of the 5,000. Unique for being the only miracle shared in all four Gospels, this story captures Jesus’ provision of abundance where there was lack, transforming a few loaves and fish into enough food for thousands. The pastors explore John’s account in detail, including the crowd’s mixed understanding of Jesus as both prophet and king, and the disciples’ front-row seats to God’s power over scarcity. They discuss how Jesus’ actions point beyond physical hunger to a spiritual reality, a pattern John uses to reveal deeper truths about Jesus’ mission. Ultimately, this story serves as a signpost for John’s message: that true faith means following Jesus even when we don’t fully understand His purpose.

In this study on John 5:30–47, Pastors Clint and Michael unpack Jesus’ powerful discourse on the authenticity of His mission and identity. Jesus explains that His actions testify to His divine connection to God, presenting His works as evidence.

This passage speaks deeply to the human tendency to cling to traditions and certainty, rather than welcoming new revelations from God. They reflect on the cautionary lesson in this dialogue: that a closed heart, devoid of love, may miss the very truth it seeks. Join in as they delve into the challenges and humility required to live out a faith that is truly open to God’s transformative love.

In today's study of John 5:19-24, we dive into one of Jesus' boldest claims about his divine identity. As he confronts religious leaders, Jesus declares his unity with God the Father—stating that whatever the Father does, the Son does as well.

The conversation reflects John's unique presentation of Christ, where the divine nature of Jesus is front and center from the beginning of his ministry.

In today’s study of John 5, we explore the story of Jesus healing a man who had been ill for 38 years. The healing takes place at a pool near Jerusalem, where the man had hoped to be made well through the stirring of the waters. Jesus asks a seemingly strange question, "Do you want to be made well?" This leads to a deeper conversation about the cost of healing and transformation. As the man is healed, tension arises because the miracle happens on the Sabbath. This event begins to spark conflict between Jesus and the religious leaders, who focus more on the legalistic breaking of Sabbath rules than the incredible healing before them. The discussion reveals how Jesus' authority and identity as God's Son create division among those who witness His actions.

Luke 3:21-28 tells the story of Jesus' baptism. Surprisingly, Luke's telling is incredibly short. While other Gospel writers paint a picture filled with details, Luke emphasizes God's voice claiming Jesus as his Son and his Beloved. The inclusion of the genealogy only serves to emphasize this point and launch us headlong into the stream of Jesus adult ministry in the pages to follow.

In Luke 2:36-52, we meet Anna the Prophetess in the temple who sees Jesus and rejoices to have seen the redeemer, only to quickly move on to the same temple years later when Jesus returns as a young boy and carries on theological conversations with the most respected theologians of his day. Clearly, Luke introduces us a child who, though humble, is wise beyond his years.

In Luke 2:21-35, Simeon and Anna, two elderly and devout Jews, are waiting in the Temple for the Messiah to come. When Mary and Joseph bring Jesus to the Temple to be circumcised, Simeon takes the baby in his arms and praises God. He says that Jesus is the Savior of Israel and that he will be a light to the Gentiles. Anna also praises God and says that Jesus is the redemption of Jerusalem.
Simeon and Anna's words are a prophecy about Jesus' ministry. Jesus will indeed be a light to the Gentiles, and he will bring salvation to Israel. He will also be a sign that will be spoken against, and his death will pierce Mary's soul.

In Exodus 40, the Tabernacle is finally set up according to God's specific instructions, signifying the end of the book. The people of Israel started as a group with a place but no identity, and now they have a temporary place with the hope that this is not their final condition. The book of Exodus provides a metaphor of journeying by stages, reminding us that journeys are hard and that freedom is difficult, requiring choice, commitment, and perseverance. The people are free from slavery but are now free towards something that they will choose and move towards through discipline and perseverance.

In Exodus 33:12-23, Moses requests to see God's glory, and God agrees, proclaiming His name before Moses and protecting him from harm by putting him in a cleft of a rock and covering him with His hand until He has passed by. This passage demonstrates God's grace and protection for Moses and the people of Israel, and His closeness to them despite their struggles.

In Exodus 33:7-11, Moses would go to the tent of meeting outside the camp to speak with God, and the people would watch and bow down in reverence. As a sign of God's presence, a pillar of cloud would descend and Moses would speak to God face to face as one speaks to a friend. This is a high praise for Moses' relationship with God, and serves as a reminder that Joshua is also present in the story, preparing for his future leadership of the people.

Continuing to reel from their disobedience, God calls the Israelites to continue their journey to the promised land, but warns them that if He goes with them, He will consume them due to their disobedience. The people mourn and take off their ornaments, a reminder of God's victory and promise, as a sign of repentance.

There is no way around it, today is a strange and difficult story. In Exodus 32:25-35, Moses confronts the people of Israel who have gone off the deep end in their idolatry, and calls for justice to be meted out in the form of a quasi-military action where people must attack their own kin. Moses commends the people for choosing to do the right, but hard thing in ordaining themselves for service at the cost of a life, and bringing a blessing on themselves in the process. This highlights the seriousness of the rupture of the people's relationship with God and also presents a sobering view of the rupture created when the people worshipped and idol instead of the God who called them out of Egypt.

Moses descends the mountain and is overwhelmed with anger at the sight of the Golden Calf, symbolically shattering the tablets of the covenant. He burns the calf, grinds it into powder, scatters it on the water, and makes the Israelites drink it, making them ingest the wrong they have done. Moses then turns his anger on Aaron, asking him why he brought such a great sin against the people, to only receive one of the most unbelievable lies and self-justifications in all the scriptures.

In Exodus 32:7-14, God is angered by the Israelites' idolatry and rebellion and is ready to turn his wrath against them, even if it means starting over with Moses. He uses the phrase "stiff-necked" to describe their disobedience, which is a reference to a bull or ox that will not be yoked. Though this moment reminds us of Moses's place in between the people and God, it also reminds us of our own reliance upon the grace of God for our own brokenness.

In Exodus 32:1-6, the people of Israel become restless in the absence of Moses and ask Aaron to make gods for them. Aaron takes their gold and creates a calf, a sacred object of the pagan gods in the land of Canaan, symbolizing fertility and strength. This clear and unambiguous destruction of God's covenant marks a clear transition in the story and sets the stage for one of the most challenging stories in Exodus.

In Exodus, God provides detailed instructions to the Israelites for the construction of the tabernacle and the garments of the priests, as well as the altar and anointing oil. God emphasizes the importance of both the big and small details of faith, which calls the people to live with the constant faith that God is with them even in the small moments of life, calling them forward into the sacred eternal truths of life and faith.

In Exodus 25:23-26:37, God gives instructions to the Israelites on how to construct a mobile temple, emphasizing the importance of holiness and reverence. This includes the use of gold and other materials to create a space of worship that is inspiring and reminds the people of God's abundance and power. It is a good reminder, even today, that discipleship happens more often in the day-to-day worship of God than in mountaintop spiritual experiences.

In Exodus 25:1-22, God commands the Israelites to take an offering from those whose hearts prompt them to give, which includes items such as gold, silver, bronze, blue, purple, and crimson yarns, fine linen, goat's hair, tanned ram skin, fine leather, acacia wood, oil for lamp spices, anointing oil for fragrant incense, onyx stones, and gems. This offering is to create a sanctuary for God to dwell among them, illustrating the relationship between the people and God. Additionally, the text suggests that the offering is occasioned by the grateful hearts of the people, with multiple ways to express it.

In Exodus 25, the people of Israel transition from a place of bondage and captivity to the wilderness, where God meets them and provides them with a tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant, symbols of faith and religion that will accompany them on their journey. These items represent the constancy of God's faithfulness to the people, even in the wilderness, and it also represents the ever present temptation that exists today to become fixated on the stuff of faith and not Jesus Christ.

In Exodus 24, God commands Moses to gather the people and worship at a distance, and Moses offers a sacrifice and reads the Book of the Covenant aloud. The people respond with a promise of obedience to the Lord's commands. This chapter serves as a reminder of the holiness of God and the difficulty of being obedient to His commands. It also serves as a reminder of what the people of God learn in worship and fellowship and how we can be faithful to God in our lives of faith today.

In this section of Exodus, God warns the people of Israel of the consequences of not following His commands and sends an angel to guide them. As part of their covenant with God, the people are warned to not bow down to the gods of the other nations, and this foreshadows the struggle between God and the people that will dominate the rest of the Old Testament.

Today the Pastors explore a section of Exodus' legal code which includes a cyclical pattern of sevens, such as seven days of the week and seven years of letting the land rest. This pattern is a reminder of God's appointed times and a call to obedience, as well as a demonstration of generosity to the poor. Additionally, the festivals mentioned in the passage represent the people's reliance on God and provide an ongoing model for faith discipleship for the whole people.

This passage from Exodus 23 emphasizes the importance of truth-telling and justice for all, regardless of social status. It encourages disciples to resist the temptation to deceive or act out of partiality, as God will not acquit the guilty. This is a theme echoed throughout the Bible, calling Christians to be trustworthy witnesses and to pursue truth over self-advancement.

The law is designed to keep the people in right relationship with God. Today the Pastors explore how this strange and broad ranging set of rules were intended to reveal the compassion of God by protecting the weakest and most powerless in society. To those who are willing to listen, there are lessons to be learned for today from these laws which were written a LONG TIME ago.

The law not only addresses what should be done when someone is hurt or injured, it also prescribes what should be done when someone's property is damaged or stolen. Then, as now, human nature tempts us to take from others or to press our own advantage. This, of course, breaks down our community and is brings severe consequences in the law.

Today's laws cover what to do when someone or their property is injured. The Pastors explore the difficult difference between the individuals in different hierarchies of ancient cultures and how these laws functioned in their society. Surprisingly, these laws are reimagined in the life of Jesus Christ, the one who takes injury upon himself for the sake of saving those who can't save themselves.

It is also a community handbook containing the divine laws that defined what it meant to be the covenant people of God. Join the Pastors as they explore how we can understand these laws today and how they fit inside our own Christian understanding of discipleship.

Today we move into DIFFICULT ground as we begin to look deeper into the more detailed laws governing communal life in ancient Israel. Today, as modern readers, we struggle to process how these laws governing the use of power in the form of economic slavery was a part of God's original plan for the Israelites. How should we read troubling sections of scripture like this today and what do we make of what it meant then?

Having completed the 10 Commandments, we prepare to enter into a lengthy section of Exodus set aside for much more obscure laws. Today, the Pastors explain how we can begin to understand the importance of these laws even though they may be so different from our own life experiences.

In today's study we finish the 10 commandments with the commands to "not lie," not "bear false witness" and to not "covet." While all commands intended to protect the community, these commands have never been more important than they are today. Join the Pastors as they explore what makes these commands so essential for every Christian alive and how we can become more intentional disciples every day.

Today the 10 commandments shift to commands (that sometime scholars call the second book) that strengthen and uplift the community. These commands to honor your father and mother, to not murder or commit adultery, are much deeper than we often consider and invite us to consider how important our right relationships are to God.

In the second commandments we are reminded that the people of God are called to honor his name and to honor the sabbath. These commands are often misunderstood as being small encouragements to not swear or to work on Sunday, when in actuality, they are challenging spiritual directives that help us practice humility and provide constant practice in trusting God for our every need.

In the first two commandments, God establishes the clear boundaries of his relationship with the Israelites. Since he is their deliverer and he is inviting them into eternal relationship, he expects that they promise to be continually faithful to him. Today, the Pastors explore the implications for this gracious offer and its life changing effects for the nation of Israel and whoever is willing to learn from them.

Purity isn't a matter of self-advancement or self-congratulation; it is the only available option before the mighty power of God. Today, the people of Israel consecrate themselves while God descends upon Mt. Sinai and speaks with the voice of thunder.

In a beautiful moment of God's grace and the people's devotion, God brings the Israelites to Mount Sinai and claims the people as a "kingdom of priests and a holy nation." In return, they promise to keep the covenant and follow in God's way. It won't take long before the people go back on their promise. God, on the other hand, never goes back on his promises. Thanks be to God.

Today's story introduces Joshua, who will become an incredibly important character in the book of Exodus and Moses' eventual successor. When Amalek sets out to war against Israel, Moses discovers that the Israelite army remains successful as long as his arms are held stretched out. Relying upon the strength of others, Moses is able to help lead the people to victory. Joshua, meanwhile, is given credit for calling and leading the army, a role as general that he will become famous for in the coming days.

When the people become thirsty again, they begin to quarrel with Moses who becomes increasingly frustrated by their lack of faith. In a sign of God's constant patience and faithfulness, he quenches the people's thirst with water from a rock.

When the people are hungry, God feeds them with "what is it?" (manna). Manna becomes the source of the people's daily nourishment for 40 years but also becomes a timeless symbol of God's daily provision in our lives. Strikingly, when Jesus teaches the disciples to pray, he includes "for our daily bread." Join the Pastors for an engaging conversation about one of Exodus' best-known stories.

The Lord has delivered the Israelites, they have broken out in song with praise and thanksgiving, and now they encounter their first hurdle on the other side of the Red Sea.

Join the Pastors as they explore this simple story about water that teaches us something about the deeper human heart.

Music is a universal language and for the Israelites it is the only fitting language to express their gratitude for the God who has delivered them from hundreds of years of slavery. In a beautiful moment in the Bible, the entire nation is moved to a song by gratitude to the Lord with sincere faith. This kind of celebration reminds us of the basic humanity of the Israelites, the hopes and dreams that were fulfilled in the Exodus, and the faithful God who would go with them into the future.

God goes to war with Egypt, harnessing the power of the clouds and fire, and if that wasn't enough, he creates a road through the Red Sea for the people of Israel to escape the oncoming Egyptian army. For just a moment, imagine standing in the middle of the sea, surrounded by walls of water, and you have just begun to understand the unsurpassed power of the God.

Not surprisingly, God has hardened Pharaoh's heart again and now the people of Israel stand in between the most powerful army on earth and a sea that prevents their escape. What can they do (besides complain)? Moses offers a passionate speech reminding them that they can put their trust in God, and he will deliver them.

When God delivers the people from Egypt, the work immediately begins the work to get Egypt out of them. It begins with new worship practices to teach future generations about God's deliverance and continues with God's miraculous leading of the people with a pillar of fire and smoke.

The prelude to the tenth and final plague makes two things abundantly clear, God is in control and his righteous judgement will bring the Egyptian Pharaoh to his knees. Today, Pastors Clint and Michael explore how the institution of the Passover transforms the Old Testament story of God's people through deliverance and how the earliest Christians found new meaning in this story in the revelation of Jesus Christ.

The ninth plague that besets Egypt is total, cosmic darkness. Harkening back to the very first moments of creation, God the Creator undoes a fundamental part of creation. The Pharaoh, as always, tries to negotiate but finally threatens to kill Moses if he ever came into the Pharaoh's presence again. This threat, is made even darker when Moses responds, "Just as you say, I will never appear before you again."

The eighth plague of locusts introduces new elements to the now familiar pattern in Exodus. Now the Pharaoh AND his officials' hearts are hardened. We find that Pharaoh begins to negotiate with Moses for who is able to go worship God, and we see that, in the end, even Pharaoh's officials are beginning to see the destructive end of Pharaoh's fight with God.

Today, God besieges Egypt with flies and then later kills all of the Egyptian livestock. For the first time, God spares the people of Israel from these plagues. And though the Pharaoh pretends to relent, he ultimately hardens his heart and continues his stubborn refusal to honor God's will...

It is no accident that the first plague turns the mighty Nile, the very symbol of Egyptian might and the place where the Pharaoh had the Israelite children killed, into a river of blood. God's judgement against the Pharaoh is only beginning and the first symbol of blood is a foreboding precursor of God's judgement to come.

For Moses, the struggle isn't identifying God's will, it is accepting it. Today, he asks God for a signs to give the people of Israel in case they doubt his story. God ultimately gives him 3.

When Moses runs from Egypt, he runs from his entire known life. When Moses runs, he runs away from his dual identity as Egyptian and Hebrew. When Moses marries a Midianite, he settles down in a new kind of life, maybe even hoping that he could leave it all behind. But amidst it all, God hears the cries of his people and little does Moses know that he will soon be a critical part of the rescue plan.

The story of Moses' birth is so much more than just an incredible story. It symbolizes God's ability to create new moments from difficult circumstances and, simultaneously, it unambiguously shows that God is able to rule and overrule the kingdoms and powers of the world. Moses means, "drawn out" and his birth starts God's plan to rescue the Israelites out from Egyptian control.

In just one sentence, the entire story of Exodus changes. Before this moment, Egypt was a place of safety for the Israelites but after it, Egypt was a place of captivity.

The end of Jacob's time with his father-in-law Laban ends peacefully with the construction of a new monument, symbolizing a covenant between both men (and the nations that they represent). We go with Jacob as he crosses over, away from the life he has created in the outer lands, back to his home country. Of course, this forces all of us to wonder what challenges will lie ahead for him, especially as he prepares to meet his brother Esau?

Today, Hagar and Ishmael come back into the story and we are quickly reminded of how messy and challenging the Biblical story truly is. Abraham and Sarah, threatened by Ishmael, and desperately wanting to realize God's plan for their lives, send a mother and her son to live by themselves in the wilderness. In the midst of their great trouble, God is faithful. Yet, that faithfulness still challenges us to ask tough questions about we treat each other along the way.
