When’s the last time you received a gift that you didn’t open?

Probably never!

We can’t wait to unwrap gifts that our loved ones have picked out just for us. But often, that’s exactly what we do with one of God’s greatest gifts. It’s a gift Ruth and Naomi received in real life—in the Bible.

In today’s episode of Live the Bible, we’re turning to Ruth chapter 4 to finally unwrap that special gift God has for us.

Think of the surprising turning points in your life.

I’m talking about those random conversations, chance encounters, and off-the-cuff decisions that seemed insignificant but ended up changing the course of your life. We might chalk these moments up to coincidence, but Scripture shows us otherwise.

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re turning to the book of Ruth to glean the truth about how God guides our lives—and how we can know that He is.

Sometimes it feels like God isn’t doing anything in your life—or worse, like He’s forgotten you.

If life has ever crumbled around you, in spite of how hard you prayed, you know the feeling I’m talking about. God is the One we’re supposed to turn to with our disappointments. But where do you turn when God is the One who has disappointed you?

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re turning to the book of Ruth for the answer—and it doesn’t disappoint.

God can work through you.

In fact, He already is.

We know how God’s grace affects us as individuals—both for salvation and for daily life. But in this episode of Live the Bible, the practical chapter of Titus 3 teaches us how we as individuals can affect others for God.

“Be good.”

Those two words could summarize most sermons we hear on Sundays. Imagine if that’s all we heard! That would shorten things up a bit, wouldn’t it?

In this week’s episode of Live the Bible, the apostle Paul tells us in Titus 2 not only to “be good,” but also HOW to do it. The secret is the grace of God.

We could summarize most sermons in two words. 

"Be good." 

Yep, amen. But in this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we'll discover why we should be good—and how we can.

Think of someone you know who inspires you. Got them in mind?

Now think of why they do. If you’re like me, we get inspired by someone’s character more than their accomplishments.

You know what? We can be inspiring people too.

In this episode of Live the Bible, we start a brand new series on the book of Titus. Paul’s letter to Titus opens in chapter 1 with secrets of an inspiring life.

What book of the Bible most intimidates you? 

For a long time, my answer was Revelation. But when I finally studied Revelation the way you’re supposed to study any book of the Bible—interpreting Scripture with Scripture—it quickly became one of my favorites!

Revelation not only reveals what wonderful things lie ahead for those who believe in Christ, it also calls us to action here and now in a practical way. In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re exploring both. 

I can’t wait to share the surprisingly simple application with you.

Your walk with God is worth fighting for. 

Or at least Scripture says we should think so. The little epistle of Jude begins by urging us to “contend earnestly” for the faith. What does that mean? 

And what does it mean for us right now? 

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re digging into Jude’s letter to find out two key steps we can apply today.

Who in your life has set a bad example? 

Perhaps you had a parent who disciplined out of anger. Or a pastor who wielded his Bible like a club. Or a boss who abused his or her power. It’s easy to dismiss such lousy leadership as incompetence, but Scripture says we can learn a lot from a bad example!

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’re turning to the book of 3 John to find out what those lessons are. They’re helpful ones we can all use—and apply—right away.

We love to hear the Beatles croon, “All you need is love.” 

And that sounds pretty basic to most of us. But—what is love? And what does it mean to love others? 

In this episode of ​Live the Bible​, we’ll open the seldom-seen book of 2 John, where God tells us exactly what love is—and why it must be joined with truth.

Love and truth. We need them both. 

(Bonus: you get to hear me sing on this episode!)
