In this episode, Rachael explores the story of Huldah, a prophetess in the Old Testament who played a significant role in verifying the authenticity of the Book of the Law.

In this episode, Rachael talks with Bible teacher Jen Weaver about the role of poetry in Scripture and how it can deepen our understanding and connection with God. They discuss how poetry is often overlooked or misunderstood, but it actually makes up over 30% of the Bible. They explore key themes and passages in Scripture that are poetry, such as the Psalms and the prophetic words in the Old Testament.

565: God’s Provision During Desperate Times: Widow of Zarephath: Women of the Old Testament Bible Study
In this episode, Rachael explores the story of a nameless widow from the Old Testament who experiences a miraculous provision from God. Despite being in a desperate and hopeless situation, the widow demonstrates faith and obedience, which leads to a supernatural abundance of food and sustenance. This story serves as a contrast to the previous episode's focus on Jezebel and highlights the power of God's intervention in the lives of His people. The widow's story also connects to the New Testament, where Jesus references her story and performs a similar miracle. The key takeaway is the importance of having faith and trust in God, even in the midst of desperate circumstances.

564: Walking on Egg Shells: Jezebel: Women of the Old Testament Bible Study
In this episode, Rachael explores the story of Jezebel and her reputation. Jezebel, the wife of King Ahab, was a pagan princess who opposed the worship of Yahweh. She was manipulative, domineering, and exploited people to get what she wanted. Jezebel's name has become synonymous with evil and immorality. Rachael encourages listeners to examine their own reactions when faced with rejection or boundaries and strive to leave a legacy of kindness, love, and faith.
