Latest Episodes from the Wednesday in the Word podcast
Matthew 1:18-25 Birth of Jesus
You would think that a passage covering the birth of Jesus would be easy “Christmas stuff” we’re all familiar with. Don’t be fooled. Matthew’s account raises some interesting theological questions.
Matthew 1:1-17 Genealogy of Jesus
Writers are usually told to start their books with a hook that will immediately engage their readers. Matthew begins his gospel with a list of names. Could anything be more boring? Yet Matthew did start with a bang. This list is relevant to every human being who ever lived.
Who was James?
There are 4 “James” in the New Testament and 2 of them are among the 12.
Gospel of Matthew Introduction
Jesus claimed that “all authority in heaven and on earth” has been given to him (Mt 28:18). If that’s true, and I believe it is, then we benefit by learning all we can about Jesus. Matthew wrote this gospel to tell us who Jesus is and what that means for us.
Who was John?
John was one of the 12 apostles, the author of the fourth gospel, three letters, and the book of Revelation.
03 Jesus: The Ideal Servant-King
As citizens of God’s kingdom, we ought to reflect our holy king. This is what citizenship in the kingdom of God looks like.
Who was Peter?
Peter (aka Simon Peter, Simon, Cephas) was one of the 12 apostles of Jesus Christ and the author of 2 letter in the New Testament.
Who was Luke?
Luke was a Gentile physician who accompanied Paul on his travels and wrote the third gospel and Acts.
02 The King Claims His People
The King redeems His people from Egypt. At Mt Sinai, He explains what it means to be His people. At end of Exodus, He is dwelling with them.
01 Kingship in the Books of Moses
Proper understanding of the Pentateuch can help us understand the Christian life and all of God’s creation. We are part of the biblical narrative – God’s plan to redeem a people for Himself.
03 Did God Lie to Israel?
How are we to interpret the numerous prophetic predictions of the glorious future restoration of Israel?
Who was Mark?
John Mark was a companion of both Paul and Peter, and a cousin of Barnabas and the author of one of the four gospels.
