Reasoning Through the Bible
Taking a cue from Paul, Reasoning Through the Bible is an expository style walk through the Scriptures that tells you what the Bible says. Reviewing both Old and New Testament books, as well as topical subjects, the hosts methodically show how Scripture is one cohesive story. Critical Thinking with a little bit of theology and apologetics and you have what this podcast is about. Just like Paul on Mars Hill, Christianity today must address woke, deconstruction, and progressive Christianity, all topics that are addressed if we go purposefully through the Bible. Join Glenn and Steve weekly on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday as they reason with you through the Bible.
Reasoning Through the Bible
Hidden Truths and Stolen Idols || Genesis 31:4-55 || Session 51 || Verse by Verse Bible Study
What do you do if you wake up one morning and your god has been stolen? This is a question discussed in today's verse by verse Bible study session. Rachel's audacious act of stealing her father Laban's household idols opens up a whole new area in our study of Genesis. We dissect the profound implications of trusting in a god that can be stolen and ponder the cultural and financial motivations behind her actions. Our conversation branches out into the perils of idolatry, cautioning against turning worldly pursuits like careers and wealth into modern-day idols. We also scrutinize Laban's manipulative nature, stressing the crucial lesson for Christians to neither fall prey to manipulation nor become the manipulators themselves. Join us as we extract timeless lessons from Jacob, Rachel, and Laban’s story, emphasizing vigilance and resistance to manipulation in our lives today.
