Hebrews 11:30-40 - Faith Through Persecution 28.05.2026 23минThis is the final portion of Hebrews eleven, exploring the faith of several individuals from the Old Testament, including Rahab, Samson, Gideon, and David. These stories serve as a testament to the power of faith in the face of adversity, and the speaker highlights Faith led to the walls of Jericho tumbling down. Faith led to surviving through fire and escaping death by sword. Faith led to shutting lion's mouths and conquering nations. Faith is not just about believing but acting on that belief, even in the face of danger or persecution. Since we understand the mystery of the Messiah, Christians today have even more reason to act in faith than the people of the Old Testament Jenn encourages listeners to take action and live out their faith and not stay silent when it comes to sharing the Gospel with others.

Ezra 8 - The Dangerous Journey Home 27.05.2026 29минBefore Ezra and his companions start on their long journey to Israel, problems already arise that need ironed out: No Levites decided to make the journey, so Ezra needs to find some willing Levites to change their minds Ezra felt ashamed to ask the king for assistance from the Persian army, so he orders a 3-day long fast to ask for protection from God Ezra immediately gives the Priests and Levites temple duties before setting out This chapter highlights the importance of faith and obedience, noting that Ezra and the Israelites trusted in God's power to protect them on their journey. It also emphasizes the significance of listening to God's call, citing the example of the Levites who initially refused to join the journey but eventually answered God's call and were blessed. Lastly, this episode concludes with a discussion on the importance of treating offerings to God with respect and reverence. Jenn notes that any offering given to God is considered holy and should be treated as such.

Hebrews 11:17-29 - Belief and Faith are Not the Same Thing 26.05.2026 29минJenn delves into the concept of faith, exploring its difference from belief and/or obedience. The discussion centers around the Hall of Faith in Hebrews chapter eleven, where the author of Hebrews highlights various individuals who demonstrated remarkable faith in God's promises: What is the difference between faith and belief? Why it's crucial to have faith, not just belief One can have belief, but not have faith; one can have obedience, but not have belief The stories of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and others, examining their faith actions and how they demonstrated obedience to God's commands. Moses considered the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt. How did Moses identify with the "reproach of Christ" if Jesus wasn't even born yet? We have a choice: be like the Hebrews, or be like the Egyptians The episode ends with a call to action to reflect on your own faith, asking if you are willing to take the step of obedience, even when it's difficult or uncomfortable.

Hebrews 11:1-16 - Faith and Obedience Go Together 21.05.2026 32минIn this episode, Jenn delves into the concept of faith, exploring what it means to have faith in God and how it's demonstrated in the lives of biblical figures like Abel, Enoch, and Abraham: The definition of faith - the assurance of things hoped for and the conviction of things not seen. The lives of these biblical characters, who, through their faith, experienced incredible outcomes, such as Abel's continued influence despite his death and Enoch's rapture into heaven. The importance of obedience in conjunction with faith Faith is not just about believing in God, but also about trusting in His promises and obeying His commands.

Ezra 6:14 - 7:10 - The 2nd Temple is Finally Finished 20.05.2026 25минIn this episode of the Bible Explained podcast, Jenn delves into the story of Ezra and the rebuilding of the Second Temple in Jerusalem. Despite facing opposition from neighboring nations and even some of the Persian kings, the Israelites remained committed to their faith and worked tirelessly to complete the temple. Some key points in today's episode: The importance of the temple's completion, highlighting the role of prophets like Haggai and Zechariah, who encouraged the people to continue building. The temple's construction was not just a physical accomplishment, but a spiritual one, as it represented the Israelites' desire to reconnect with their God and rebuild their community. When God gives the people joy and puts a new heart in the king, does that imply that people have no free will? The theme of God's sovereignty and providence, as He guides the Israelites through the challenges they faced.
