One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you.

TODAY'S EPISODE:

Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, hosted by Hunter. In today’s episode, recorded on July 9th, we continue our daily rhythm of drawing near to God’s Word and allowing it to shape us. Hunter leads us through powerful passages from Micah 1–4, capturing God’s call for justice and hope for restoration, and then moves into Hebrews 6, exploring the encouragement to grow in maturity, hold onto hope, and anchor ourselves in Christ’s love.

As we breathe, rest, and reflect together, Hunter reminds us of the remedies for spiritual dullness: savoring both the “milk and meat” of Scripture, and putting our faith into action through love for others. Today’s reading and reflection challenge us to experience the “with God” life—a life anchored in Christ’s hope, lived out through loving action, and grounded in the unchanging promises of God.

Join us for prayer, reflection, and encouragement as we journey deeper into God’s Word and discover afresh that we are truly loved—no doubt about it.

TODAY'S DEVOTION:

The remedy for a dull spirit. Yesterday, we were reminded of the importance of our hearing—hearing God’s word and savoring it, whether it’s the milk or the meat. That kind of deep attentiveness, that savoring and letting God’s word do its work in us, is the antidote to spiritual dullness and hearing loss. Today, the scripture takes us further, showing us another remedy: love. Love for God’s people, expressed in action, is another way that spiritual indifference and dullness are healed.

The writer of Hebrews tells us that God is not unjust; he sees and remembers the work we do for him, especially when it is shown through our love and care for other believers. The encouragement is clear: keep on loving others as long as life lasts. Why? Because this living out of love, this putting the word of God into motion through tangible acts of kindness and care, protects us from spiritual dullness and indifference. It keeps our hope alive, makes it certain, and keeps our spiritual senses sharp.

If we let the word of God take root—not just in study, but in the daily business of loving others—we’ll discover that our souls are anchored, firm and secure, in Christ. Like the anchor that holds steady through every storm, Jesus—the one who has entered the inner sanctuary ahead of us—holds us fast. This is the with-God life. A life not just of study or knowledge, but one lived in the presence of God, marked by love, hope, and assurance.

Our hope is not wishful thinking. It is a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It draws us right into the presence of God, where Jesus has already gone before us as our eternal High Priest. There, in God’s presence, is where we find our greatest joy and where God receives glory. There, we find that love is not just something we do—it is the air we breathe in the kingdom of God.

Hear him today. Let his word, and the love he gives you, anchor your spirit. Step into the freedom, joy, and life that is yours in Christ. Love, savor, repeat—these are the rhythms that keep us close to him.

That’s the prayer I have for my own soul. That’s the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, and my son. And that’s the prayer I have for you. May it be so.

TODAY'S PRAYERS:

Gracious and everlasting God, you have brought us through the shadow of night into the promise of a new day. You go before us with your mercy, sustain us by your grace and keep us from wandering paths of fear or pride. Let every word we speak and every step we take be formed by the goodness of Christ. O Lord, gather your people far and near. May every tribe and tongue come to know your peace.

Let justice roll like a river and healing flow where there has been division. Pour out your spirit upon all flesh and bring us closer to the day when your kingdom comes in fullness through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.
