Episode 172 - "Throw You Outta This Boat!"

Ryan Joy · Bible Geeks Podcast

Practice Spiritual Disciplines Why’s it so hard to simplify our lives? How could unanswered prayers instruct us? Did the early church practice fasting? And what’s wrong with needing to see results in our service? Last week we kicked off our Bible Geeks Book Club by Flying Through a book called Celebration of Discipline, by Richard J. Foster. Here in part 2 of that discussion, we each identify our Favorite Things from the book and where we need to grow, bringing some of these disciplines into our lives more. The Big Idea: We can become more like Jesus by imitating his habits. This Week's Challe

It’s a conversation that raises topics from simplifying our possessions to what happens when we worship together. As the author says in closing, “The classical Disciplines of

Psalm 78 Part 2

Tommy Peeler · Carefully Examining the Text

This beautiful poetic psalm, Psalm 78, continues. It continues to tell the glory of God and sinfulness of His people, Israel. God in His mercy rescues them while the people forget Him time and time again. If this has a happy ending, it will be because of God's persistence.

ARE Bible Study - Ecclesiastes 12: What Is It all About?

The Daily Answer

This final section exhorts the reader to remember his or her Creator before the days of old age and death set in. “Nor is the exhortation to remember your Creator a contradiction to the exhortations to rejoice. Instead we have a warning against mindless self-indulgence and profligacy during the days of one’s vigor. To forget the Creator of youth is to invite bitter regrets and an empty existence in old age. To remember the Creator is to follow the path of wisdom and extend the joy of life” (Garrett).
