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! In today’s episode, host Hunter invites us on the 178th day of our journey through the Bible, focusing on powerful stories from 2 Kings 13-14, 2 Chronicles 25, and 2 Timothy 3. Together, we’ll encounter the rise and fall of Israel’s and Judah’s kings, their ongoing struggles with faithfulness, and God’s unwavering mercy—despite their failures. Hunter also draws us into the wisdom of Paul’s words to Timothy, reminding us of the power of Scripture to correct, heal, and equip us for every good work. As always, we’ll be guided in prayer and reflection, encouraged to root our lives in the truth of the Gospel, and reminded that we are deeply loved. Settle in for a thoughtful, hope-filled time in God’s Word.

TODAY'S DEVOTION:

What message are you listening to? Every day, our hearts and minds are being shaped by the messages we take in—some true, some painfully untrue. The world is full of voices: past experiences, the culture around us, even old wounds, all speaking into our lives, sometimes with words that harm and mark us, sometimes with words that heal.

Paul tells us in his letter to Timothy that God uses Scripture—His Word—in our lives. The Word of God is more than just ancient text or religious teaching; it's profitable, Paul says. It's useful for teaching us truth, for pointing out what is wrong in our lives, and for correcting and training us in righteousness. Through Scripture, God offers us wisdom—wisdom that leads us to trust Christ and to receive salvation.

The truth is, false messages will never lead us to life. They'll run us into the ground and hold us down. But the liberating message of the Gospel sets us free. God, through His Word, prepares and equips His people to do every good work. He brings healing where there have been wounds and roots us in what is real—His love, His truth, and the life of His Son.

So, what kind of message are you building your life on today? Sink your roots deep into the truth of the Gospel: Christ lives in you. By the faith of the Son of God, you can change, you can be healed, even from the deepest wounds, here and now.

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

TODAY'S PRAYERS:

Lord of heaven and earth, you have awakened us in your mercy once more. Still our anxious minds, quiet our striving hearts and help us to rest in the knowledge that we are held by you. May we walk in step with your spirit today—not ahead, not behind, but beside you in trust and love—through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.

O God of all peoples, you formed every soul in your image and breathed life into every heart. Open the eyes of the nations, soften hearts grown cold, and teach us to live as neighbors and friends. Let your spirit move in power. Renew the face of the earth and usher in your reign of peace. Amen.

And now, Lord, let me be a bearer of your peace. Where voices divide, let me speak grace. Where fear takes root, let me plant trust. Where the world rushes on, let me walk with you. May I seek not to climb, but to kneel—not to win, but to love—not to grasp, but to give. For it is in emptying that we are filled, in surrender that we are strengthened, and in union with you that we find our truest joy. 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.
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.
