Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome back to the Daily Radio Bible podcast, dear listeners. I'm Hunter, your Bible reading coach and brother in faith, here with you every day as we journey through the pages of the Bible. Today, in our 38th day of exploration, we're diving into the depths of Leviticus chapters 4 through 6 and Acts chapter 14. We'll unravel the seemingly complex systems of offerings and understand how they foreshadow the good things promised in Christ, offering us a glimpse of the ultimate cleansing and renewal that awaits us. We'll also witness the powerful acts of Paul and Barnabas as they boldly proclaim the good news, facing opposition with unwavering faith. So grab your Bible and join me as we warm our hearts by the fire of God's presence and love, knowing full well that you are deeply loved and not alone in this journey. Let’s delve deeper and discover the life that has been graciously offered to us through His word. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Bulls, goats, and birds, how does any of this stuff have anything to do with Jesus? These things can seem so strange and far removed from our own lives. Not many of us have seen an animal offered on an altar. What does it all mean? Hebrews ten one through two says this: the old system under the law of Moses was only a shadow, a dim preview of the good things to come, not the good things themselves. The sacrifices under that system were repeated again and again, year after year, but they were never able to provide perfect cleansing for those who came to worship. If they could have provided perfect cleansing, the sacrifices would have stopped, for the worshipers would have been purified once for all time, and their feelings of guilt would have disappeared. The good thing to come is your perfect cleansing for all time and your feelings of guilt disappearing. That's the good thing that we're only seeing a shadow of in these strange things we read about in Leviticus. This shadow play and detailed systems of sacrifices didn't change the way they felt on the inside. That's why they came back year after year. And sadly, too often, so it is today. The shadow play that we make up to get rid of all our bad feelings of guilt doesn't work either. But we've been made right with God, not through a ram or a bull or a bird. Jesus is the perfect lamb who takes away the sins of the world, cleansing you, making you new. God wants us to know that, and He also wants us to know that in that sacrifice of love, He has also given us His life now. He not only atoned for your sin, but He also offers you His gracious life today. So let's live it. Live today in the light of your perfect cleansing. Live today in the light of what you have become because of what He's done. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen. And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen And now as our Lord has taught us we are bold to pray... Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen. ...

  • February 6th, 25: Embracing Leviticus: A Journey Through Sacred Offerings and Acts' Apostle Adventures

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today's episode, host Hunter guides us through an insightful journey in the scriptures on this 37th day of our Bible reading adventure. We embark on a new challenge as we delve into the Book of Leviticus, along with passages from Acts Chapter 13. Hunter provides thoughtful reflections on the sacrificial system found in Leviticus, emphasizing how these ancient practices were a foreshadowing of the ultimate sacrifice made by Jesus. In Acts, we follow Paul and Barnabas on their missionary journey, witnessing the spread of the gospel and the diverse reactions it receives—some welcome it with joy, while others resist. Hunter reminds us of the core message of grace, urging us to rest in the work Christ has already accomplished. Throughout the episode, we're invited to engage in prayer, seeking God’s guidance and peace for ourselves and the world. Tune in and be encouraged as we explore these themes together. Remember, you are loved, and join us again for tomorrow's reading. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Wherever the gospel is preached, it finds its listeners. Some receive it with joy, others reject it. This timeless message of Christ and His saving grace is sent out to the world, capturing hearts like wildfire, while encountering resistance along the way. Paul and Barnabas ventured forth with this message, tracing the lineage of faith back through Abraham, Moses, and the journey of God's people. This message, though ancient and familiar, unveils God's plan through Jesus, the Messiah. Through Christ, we see the fullness of God's promise—a life lived in perfect love, fulfilling the law for us. His sacrifice on the cross becomes our victory, a substitute for our shortcomings. He died for all, and rose for all, offering freedom from sin and the grave. This new life in Christ is a gift, an invitation to live boldly in His power and grace. However, resistance remains. For some, it's rooted in piety—trusting their efforts rather than God’s grace. It's a struggle not exclusive to the past or to one group; many of us wrestle with relying on our deeds instead of resting in Christ's finished work. Frustration can creep in when we lean on self-effort to earn God's favor, yet the gospel frees us from this burden. Paul’s fervor conveyed that right standing with God is not earned but given through belief in Jesus. This life is now ours to embrace: living in God's joy and strength, rooted in the assurance of His presence. This is the call—to receive and rest in the truth of Christ in us, rather than resisting the gravity of His love. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul today. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, and my daughters, and my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen. Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you.

Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us ...

  • February 5th, 25: Freedom Through Faith: Peter's Deliverance and the Glory of God
    Feb 5 2025

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S DEVOTION: It's all a gift. Peter finally comes to his senses. He finally realizes that he was not in chains anymore, that he was free. And he quickly and immediately realizes that it was the Lord who broke those chains and set him free. We're also told that the church was praying for him, and we can't help but draw a line between the people's prayers and Peter's dramatic deliverance. Somehow, the church, through prayer, was able to participate with what God was actually doing. And for all this, Peter is quick to give God the praise and acknowledge that it is all from him. It's all a gift. This is so unlike what we hear from Herod. When people begin to praise and treat him and speak of him as if he were a god, he does nothing to correct them. He readily and gladly accepts their worship. As a result, he's struck with worms, and he dies. An absolutely horrendous, inglorious death. When we take the glory that is due only to God, we are not free. No. We are consumed from the inside out. Living for the glory of yourself won't bring life. It won't bring freedom. It will only bring death. No matter how splendid that life might appear, God is the source of all good in our life. He's the only one who has broken the chains humanity was bound to. He's the only one who has rescued us from the dark dungeons we've been sentenced to. He's the only one that sets us free. It's all a work of God, lest any of us should boast. So let's awaken from the fog like Peter did, standing in the middle of the street, suddenly realizing that God had done this amazing thing, that his chains were broken, the gates were opened, that he was walking out free into a new day. God had done it all. Let's awaken like Peter did to see that God has done all of these things for us too. Let's make sure that we're like Peter and give God the glory for all the good that he's brought into our life. It's all from him. Any victories that we might have experienced, any growth that we've known as Christians, any new insight or understanding of God's love, it's all a gift from him. These are all from God, not of us. But they are all for us. For our joy, for our freedom, but for his glory. So let's live fully aware in the knowledge that God is the source of our freedom in life. He is the one that causes chains to come off. He is the one who walks with us into a new day. May this day be one where we honor him for all that he has done. That's a prayer that I have for my own soul. That's a prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. Welcome, dear listeners, to the Daily Radio Bible, where we're transforming lives through the word of God, one day at a time. Today is February 5th, 2025, as we step into day 36 of our year-long journey through the Bible.

In today's episode, we'll be reading from Exodus chapters 39 and 40, Psalm 15, and Acts chapter 12. Together, we'll explore intricate details of sacred garments, the completion of the tabernacle, and Peter's miraculous escape from prison. As always, our goal is to not just read the scriptures, but to be transformed by the God who is with us and is love. So, let’s dive in and let the soul work begin. Join us as we seek to renew our minds and expand the boundaries of our imaginations. Let's trust that God’s word will do its work in us today.

You are loved!

That is the message I hear everyday in this podcast. Hunter and Heather do an excellent job of walking with us through God’s word and reminding us that God wants relationship with us and that our hearts and minds can be directed toward our Savior through his word. Over the past year my heart has heard many messages of hope, love and forgiveness. I am looking forward to what God has to say to my heart this year. Thank you Hunter for being my “Bible reading coach.” I have truly been blessed.

An everyday blessing

Like you, I imagine, I was looking for a daily Bible plan. What I found was so much more. The DRB Not only goes through the Bible over the course of a year in a very smart way, but also includes a short but well thought-out discussion and a beautiful prayer. It is an excellent 20-30 minutes that you can use to start, center or end your day right. I think it could be especially helpful if you are feeling lost or unloved, and who isn’t sometimes?

Give the DRB a try, and chances are you’ll be a daily listener like me.
