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 podcast! In this November 8th, 2024 episode, your Bible reading coach and brother Hunter invites you on day 312 of our journey through scripture. We begin with Job 33, listening to Elihu’s heartfelt dialogue with Job about God’s ways, before diving into the opening chapters of First Corinthians. Here, Hunter guides us through Paul’s passionate plea for unity, reminding us that true wisdom and power are found in the “foolish” message of the cross.
Alongside the readings, we create space for prayer—interceding for ourselves, those we love, and the world around us. Hunter reflects on the simplicity of the gospel: that God, in radical, co-suffering love, has revealed His heart for humanity through Jesus. The episode closes with words of encouragement, partnership shoutouts, and an invitation to return tomorrow to be refreshed by God’s love.
Whether you’re seeking spiritual guidance, deeper understanding of scripture, or simply a moment of peace, this episode offers a gentle reminder: you are loved—no doubt about it. So, let’s open our hearts and journey together.
TODAY'S DEVOTION:
His message doesn't come with a bunch of show and pretense. He's not trying to build his own name or his own following. He's not trying to present himself as a great philosopher or a renowned debater. He has a simple and sincere spirit-empowered message. And it's so contrary to what the world would expect. So much so that he calls it the foolish preaching of the cross. He presents the simple, sincere, self-empowered foolish preaching of the cross. That message is that God in his love has offered his dearly loved Son to redeem humanity, to restore and renew all that was lost.
God has loved all of humanity so much that he became one of us. He came to us in self-giving, radically forgiving, co-suffering love. And on the cross, he has defeated death, despair, and the grave and drawn us to himself. On the cross, God fully revealed to us his loving heart, the precious value of every human life—including yours. Now we can know who God is and who we have become in Him. This is the foolish message of the cross. And it's for you, it's for me, it's for everyone.
So today we rest in that, we rejoice in that. And we ask the Holy Spirit to open our eyes that we might see more and more of what God has done, who he is, and what we have become.
That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so.
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.
