"The Daily Bite" is a regular, daily (15-20 min) Bible study, based on a daily Scripture reading from "The Faith @ Home Corner" devotion guide. Rev. Steve Andrews Jr. begins by reading the chapter aloud and then shares some things about God's Word like the context, Law and Gospel, and how it to points to Jesus to help deepen your understanding of the text and your ability to teach it to your children. He also aims to provide a couple of questions you can use to engage your children in God's Word. You may reach him at andrews@gracefaithlove.org. www.gracefaithlove.org/faith-home-corner
The Daily Bite Podcast is complete! There is now an episode available for every chapter of God's Holy Word. You are welcome to make use of these episodes in any way you would like that would be of benefit to you and the Lord's kingdom. For as long as I can, I plan to host the episodes at: https://sandhandrews.wordpress.com/the-daily-bite/

Easter: If you’re following along in the Faith @ Home Corner, this week is the readings for Easter. Since I’ve already recorded those, I’m filling in the gap by continuing to study the Psalms, but you can listen to the episodes for each text by clicking the link: Sunday (Numbers 21), Monday (Psalm 22), Tuesday (Matthew 20), Wednesday (Matthew 26), Thursday (Matthew 27), Friday (Matthew 28), and Saturday (1 Corinthians 15).

Easter: If you’re following along in the Faith @ Home Corner, this week is the readings for Easter. Since I’ve already recorded those, I’m filling in the gap by continuing to study the Psalms, but you can listen to the episodes for each text by clicking the link: Sunday (Numbers 21), Monday (Psalm 22), Tuesday (Matthew 20), Wednesday (Matthew 26), Thursday (Matthew 27), Friday (Matthew 28), and Saturday (1 Corinthians 15).

We pause in our Bible reading plan in the Faith @ Home Corner this week to reflect on Holy Week, using readings from Numbers 21, Psalm 22, Matthew 20, 26-28, and 1 Corinthians 15. Those episodes aired in April 2020, and you can track them down if you'd like. As this is a three-and-a-half year commitment, I will work through the Psalms whenever there would be a break like this, in order to keep the resources coming your way! So, this week, we'll look at Psalms 4-10, but again, feel free to use the week to focus on the readings for Holy Week instead!

In this chapter, Paul explores the different gifts that the Holy Spirit gives to different Christians within the Church, and compares that to how our body has many members that all work together for the good of the body. So the body of Christ has many members that all have different roles for the common good.

And yet, it is precisely because of that that it is also so richly able to point us to the relationship between Christ and His bride, the Church.

What is "The Daily Bite"? It is a regular, daily Bible study that will last for 5-10 minutes. In recent years, I have provided a daily devotional outline called "The Faith @ Home Corner," which includes a chapter of God's Word to read together each day, and can be found here: http://www.gracefaithlove.org/faith-home-corner
In this podcast, I will read that chapter aloud and share some things about God's Word like the context, Law and Gospel, and how it to points to Jesus to help deepen your understanding of the text, and your ability to teach it to your children. I also hope to provide a couple of questions that you can use to engage your children in God's Word.
