Introducing the devil and satan - part 1

Paul and Dan embark on a multi-part exploration of the terms devil and satan and how they are used through the Bible.  They aim to lay some foundations here by thinking about how our worldview might affect how we read the Bible and the importance of taking notice of how Jesus interpreted his Bible. They do (eventually) start to explore some verses that talk about the devil and satan and draw an initial conclusion that they may not be referring to a supernatural being... but there's so much more still to cover!

Introduction to the Psalms - Part 2

Jordan and Dan continue working through the 'books' within the Psalms. This time they look at books three, four and five and find that they can be seen to follow a spiritual journey.  They find that some Psalms express doubts and uncertainties and deeply question what God is doing. But by remembering what God has done in the past the Psalmist is led back to peace of mind and trust in God, ending with a call for "everything that has breath to praise the LORD"!

Introduction to the Psalms - Part 1

For the next of our Bible book introductions, Jordan Walton and Dan Weatherall tackle the Psalms.  As there are 150 of them we thought they deserved two episodes! So here is part 1, with part 2 to follow in a couple of weeks.  Dan and Jordan consider whether the Psalter is just a random collection of prayers and songs or whether there is some structure to it.  Having identified a five book structure, they start to delve into the focus of books one and two. 

Introduction to Philemon

For the next of our Bible book introductions, Paul and Laurence take a look at the smallest of Paul's letters, his letter to Philemon.  After clearing up the centuries old debate about how to pronounce his name, they proceed to explore why a personal letter about fixing a very personal relationship should be included in the scriptures.  They find that it is, in fact, an incredibly revealing case study into how being a Christian should change the way we view society and people around us.
