TODAY'S EPISODE:
Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today’s episode, host Hunter guides us through the events of a pivotal day in our yearlong journey through scripture. We dive into 2 Samuel 11–12, where we witness King David’s fall into sin with Bathsheba and the tragic consequences that follow, as well as his heartfelt repentance captured in Psalm 51. Hunter reflects on the power of story—drawing a powerful connection between the story Nathan the prophet shares with David, and our own need for honest self-reflection and restoration with God. In the New Testament reading, Matthew 23, Jesus offers fierce words to the religious leaders of his day, challenging all of us to pursue true humility, justice, and mercy.
Throughout the episode, Hunter provides thoughtful commentary on the importance of recognizing our union with God even when we fall short, and invites listeners into a time of prayer for renewal, peace, and compassion. As always, the podcast closes with warm encouragement to keep showing up—both for yourself and for those you love—reminding us that God’s love and restoration are always available.

TODAY'S PRAYERS:
Lord God Almighty and everlasting father you have brought us in safety to this new day preserve us with your Mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose through Jesus Christ Our Lord amen.
Oh God you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you, and find you. Bring the nations into your fold, pour out your Spirit on all flesh, and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
And now Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred let me sow love. Where there is injury, pardon. Where there is doubt, faith. Where there is despair, hope. Where there is darkness, light. And where there is sadness, Joy. Oh Lord grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console. To be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned, it is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. 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 tresspasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not unto temptation, but deliver us from evil, for thine is the Kingdom and the power and the glory forever. Amen.
Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.
