TODAY'S EPISODE:
Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where together we set aside time each day to journey through Scripture and encounter God’s story. Today’s episode, October 11th, 2025, finds us reading through Nehemiah chapters 5 and 6, Psalm 146, and Luke 24. Hunter, your host and Bible reading coach, guides us through themes of restoration, justice, and hope—from Nehemiah’s leadership in rebuilding the wall and seeking fairness among the people, to Psalm 146’s assurance of God’s unfailing care, and ultimately to the powerful resurrection story in Luke, where Jesus opens the hearts and minds of His followers.
In today’s reflection, we’re reminded how the risen Christ meets us wherever we are—whether walking a lonely road or gathered in an upper room—drawing near and opening our eyes to His presence, love, and forgiveness. The episode concludes with prayers for peace, unity, and transformation, inviting listeners to receive the Gospel anew and walk in God’s joy. Subscribe and join the journey as we continue to invest in things that are good, true, and life-giving—discovering, day by day, that we are deeply loved.
TODAY'S DEVOTION:
When God breaks bread, their eyes are opened. Jesus opens the minds of these two travelers on the road to Emmaus. He enables them to understand the Scriptures. Unbeknownst to them, Jesus is right beside them, walking with them through the writings of Moses and the prophets, showing them how the story of Christ is woven into every single page. Then, in a moment, as he breaks the bread with them, the full reality of the resurrection is revealed—he is King, he is Messiah. With the breaking of bread and the sharing of a simple meal, their hearts are awakened, and a new understanding is given.
Suddenly, everything comes into focus. They see that the message is one of forgiveness for all. The gospel is now clear and accessible to everyone who will turn and receive what God has done—to see their true selves in Christ: forgiven, loved, accepted. As we come to the Word of God by the power of the Spirit, as we open the Scriptures, the Scriptures also open us—to the reality of Christ’s presence, with us and in us. He demonstrates to us, again and again, that we are loved and forgiven, that he has given us the power, by his Spirit, to live his life within us.
Christ in you—the hope of glory. This is the message, the gospel, that is transforming people all over the world. Whether you are hiding in an upper room, or walking a lonely road, Christ appears. He reveals himself, breaks open the bread of life, and weary travelers partake. Their hearts are warmed, they are made new, and a new journey in Christ begins. My prayer is that as we hear God’s Word each day, our hearts will be warmed, our vision cleared, and our identity settled—we will know who he is, and who we are in him.
That’s a prayer I have for my own soul, for my family, for my wife, my daughter, my sons. And that’s a prayer 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.
