| 27 Jun 2022 | Leviticus1-3: Ritual Law School Part One | 00:25:01 | |
What comes to mind when we hear the word 'ritual'? Although rituals can get a bad rap, the rituals laid out by God to Moses and the Israelites had multiple purposes.

| 11 Jul 2022 | Leviticus 6-7: What the World Missed in Leviticus | 00:34:00 | |
Leviticus 6-7 might appear repetitive to the untrained ear but it's not! While Moses does repeat the offering details we have heard in previous chapters, there is one nuance here--the laws were instructions to the priests rather than to the people. While the people needed to know how and what to offer, the priests needed instructions on how to make those offerings too. It all worked together.

| 09 Oct 2023 | Judges 6-8:Gideon’s Fleeces and Flaws | 00:34:16 | |
Chapter 6-8 of Judges describes the story of Gideon, a deeply flawed judge who really wanted to be king. Despite his flaws, Gideon was also a man of great faith who was used by God to deliver the Israelites from the Midianites. Gideon's faith was put to the test when God called him to lead the Israelites to victory. Gideon was initially reluctant and asked for signs from God to confirm His calling. God gave Gideon two signs, which helped to build Gideon's faith. God then tested Gideon's trust in Him by eliminating the fearful men and the men who drank on their knees from Gideon's army. This left Gideon with only 300 men, but these men were all brave and trusted God. Gideon still needed more assurance, so God gave him a dream about a loaf of barley bread that rolled into the Midianite camp and destroyed a tent. This dream symbolized Gideon's victory over the Midianites. Gideon led his 300 men to victory over the Midianites, but he was not without his flaws. In a fit of rage and revenge, he tortured the men of Sukkoth and killed the men of Peniel. He also asked for a tribute of gold from the people and used it to make an ephod, which led the Israelites back into idolatry. Despite his flaws, Gideon was a man of great faith who was used by God to deliver the Israelites from the Midianites. His story teaches us that God can use anyone, no matter how flawed, to accomplish His purposes.

| 23 Oct 2023 | Judges 10-12: Jephthah the Outcast Judge | 00:30:54 | |
In this podcast episode, we witness the Israelites caught in a familiar cycle of wrongdoing and crying out to God for help. Surprisingly, they appoint Jephthah, an outcast, as their leader. Jephthah's tale takes a sorrowful turn when, lacking knowledge of the covenantal history between God and the Israelites, he makes a rash vow to God. He promises to sacrifice the first living being to greet him upon his return if granted victory over the Ammonites. Tragically, it is his own daughter who emerges after their triumph, and Jephthah feels compelled to fulfill his vow.

| 30 Oct 2023 | Judges 13-14: Samson's Obsession with Self-Gratification | 00:30:35 | |
In this episode, we journey through Judges 13-14 exploring the brief mention of the last three minor judges: Ibzan, Elon, and Abdon. Their stories set the stage marked by the ominous phrase, "again, the Israelites did evil in the eyes of the Lord,” giving way to our meeting of the final judge, Samson; the most famous, and arguably worst, judge of all. The Angel of the Lord heralds his birth with great promise, raising our expectations for his role in saving Israel. However, right from the start, Samson's insatiable attraction to women, a mark of his greater character flaw, self-gratification, takes center stage. Instead of focusing on his divine mission, he impulsively marries a Philistine woman, much to his parents' dismay. The narrative unfolds as Samson insists on his own desires, resulting in a dead lion, a contentious wedding, 30 Philistine groomsmen, and mounting tensions with the Philistines, in this enthralling episode.

| 06 Nov 2023 | Judges 15-16: Samson's Cycle of Retaliation and Revenge | 00:30:12 | |
In this gripping episode, we dive into the intense narrative of Judges Chapters 15 and 16, which chronicles the relentless conflict between Samson and the Philistines. This cycle of revenge and retaliation begins with a shocking betrayal by Samson's new father-in-law, who gives his wife to a Philistine groomsman, inciting Samson's fiery response of burning the Philistine crops. The situation escalates as the Philistines respond with a horrifying act, burning Samson's new wife and father-in-law to death. Samson's vengeance is swift and brutal, leading to further bloodshed. The Philistines, determined to capture Samson, resort to threats against the tribe of Judah for his capture. Amid these tumultuous events, we witness Samson's incredible feat of single-handedly defeating a thousand Philistines using nothing but a donkey's jawbone. The tension rises as the Philistines plot to ensnare Samson through the cunning Delilah, leading to his ultimate betrayal and capture.

| 13 Nov 2023 | Judges 17-19: The Dark Days of Israel | 00:30:29 | |
In Chapters 17-19 of the Book of Judges, we delve into the grim realities of a time when Israel had lost its moral compass. These chapters offer a street-level perspective on the chaotic lives of the people, each person living as they saw fit. We begin with the story of Micah, a man who attempted to manipulate God's favor through a lost Levite. However, the Levite's stay was short-lived, and he eventually departed, leading to further loss and confusion. The tribe of Dan, equally lost, had also lost their land and seemed to have lost their connection to God. As the narrative unfolds, we encounter another Levite who makes a horrifying decision. In a desperate attempt to save himself from a gang of rapists, he sacrifices his concubine, a deeply disturbing act that reveals the depths of moral decay and depravity that had engulfed the land during these dark days of Israel.

| 20 Nov 2023 | Judges 20-21: When Everyone Did as They Saw Fit | 00:30:51 | |
In Judges 19-21, we witness a series of horrifying events that epitomize the moral decay in Israel during those dark days. The story unfolds as a street-level view of a nation where everyone does as they see fit. The Levite, who had shown a complete lack of compassion for his concubine, takes a gruesome turn. Upon returning home, he cuts her into twelve pieces and sends them throughout Israel, provoking outrage and a call for action. The Israelites' initial shock and motivation to address the atrocity led to three battles and devastating losses. They eventually secure victory over the tribe of Benjamin, but the cost is incredibly high. In a devastating conflict, Israel turns against its own in a brutal battle. The horrifying death toll reveals the depths to which the nation has fallen. With the tribe of Benjamin at risk of extinction, the Israelites devise a disturbing plan to provide wives for the remaining bachelors, including killing the inhabitants of Jabesh Gilead. The story concludes with a deep sense of moral decay and a reminder of the Israelites' broken relationship with God and one another.

| 27 Nov 2023 | Ruth 1: Sweet Naomi's Bitter Return | 00:30:14 | |
The story in Ruth begins with Naomi and her family relocating to Moab from Bethlehem due to a famine in Israel, which is ironic given that Bethlehem means "house of bread." Naomi's husband, Elimelek, meaning "my God is king," reflects a connection to the final verse of Judges, stating that in those days, Israel had no king. The narrative unfolds in Bethlehem, where Naomi's bitterness lingers. Despite being embraced by God and Israel, Ruth remains identified as "Ruth the Moabite," highlighting her foreign status. The story sets the stage for God's providential intervention in the lives of Naomi and Ruth. The Book of Ruth is creatively a Christmas Story because the solution to the Israelite's problem, the need for a king, is announced at the end of the Book of Ruth. So, for season 8, the 4 episodes of Ruth will each have a bonus Advent episode. There is much meaning to the song O Little Town of Bethlehem and it starts here in the Book of Ruth!

In chapter 2 of the Book of Ruth, Ruth meets Boaz. The chapter is loaded with five scenes–all conversations between the three main characters, Naomi, Ruth, and Boaz. Naomi and Ruth are settled in Bethlehem, but their situation is not good. They need to provide for themselves, but Naomi seems unable to help. Ruth must take matters into her own hands despite the fact that she is the unwelcome Moabite in the little Israelite town of Bethlehem. Ruth steps out in faith and providentially lands in Boaz's field, where Ruth meets Boaz for the first time. Boaz steps up and provides for Ruth and Naomi. Conversations happen, and Boaz is intrigued. Ruth is very different from him. He is rich, she is poor. He is a native, she is a foreigner. He is older, she is younger. Yet despite their differences, Boaz sees something more important in Ruth. He sees a genuine faith in God. It attracts his attention, and suddenly, we are in a tale as old as time, with a few twists!
