What Did God Leave Out of The Bible?

What did God leave out of the Bible? That simple question—shared on a note and discussed on an episode of We Get To Do This with Adam Curry and Pastor Jimmy Pruitt—sparked a much deeper conversation. As Christians, we often focus on what we wish Scripture would tell us: what Jesus wrote in the dirt, what Paul’s thorn in the flesh really was, what happened during the silent years of Jesus’ life, and countless other unanswered questions. But what if those omissions weren’t accidental? What if God intentionally chose not to reveal certain things? In this episode of Randy Unscripted, Randy explores the mysteries Scripture leaves unsolved and examines what those omissions teach us about God’s purpose, wisdom, and the sufficiency of His Word. Along the way, he considers why faith sometimes requires us to be comfortable with mystery, why humility matters when interpreting Scripture, and why trusting God’s revelation is more important than satisfying our curiosity. The Bible may not answer every question we can ask, but it provides everything we need to know God, follow Christ, and live faithfully.

Start with the Outcome, Not the Tool

More than a decade ago, I saved a simple educational technology graphic that made a lasting impression on me. In fact, I liked it so much that I contacted its creator, received permission to use it, and even printed it on the back of my business cards. Recently, while scrolling through old photos on my iPhone, I stumbled across that same image. At first glance, it looked like a relic from another era—but the more I studied it, the more I realized its message had never been more relevant. In this episode of Randy Unscripted, we explore why it’s so easy to become captivated by the latest technology while losing sight of the reason we wanted it in the first place. From educational technology and artificial intelligence to business, ministry, parenting, and podcasting, this conversation goes far beyond the classroom to examine a timeless principle for making better decisions: Start with the outcome, not the tool. Along the way, I’ll share why yesterday’s “revolutionary” technologies have become today’s nostalgia, why our purpose should outlast every platform we adopt, and three simple questions that can help you evaluate not only the next piece of technology, but almost every important decision you’ll make. Sometimes the most important lesson isn’t found in the newest technology—it’s found in remembering why we picked it up in the first place. Support Randy Unscripted

Daily Devotionals: Peace in Difficult Moments

In this devotional we reflect on the idea that peace is not the absence of difficulty, but something we can experience in the middle of it. We begin with John 14:27, where Jesus says he gives peace that is different from what the world offers. We contrast ordinary ideas of peace with the peace Jesus describes. Rather than depending on calm circumstances, this peace remains present when life is unsettled. We are reminded that it comes from God and is not limited by what is happening around us. We are encouraged to pause in difficult moments, center ourselves in God’s presence, breathe, pray, and remember that this peace is available right now. The devotional closes with a prayer asking God to calm our thoughts, steady our hearts, and help us trust and rest in his peace.

Sharing the Good News: The Samaritan Woman’s Testimony

In this episode of Bible Bytes, titled "Sharing the Good News: The Samaritan Woman’s Testimony," host Randy Black explores the transformative power of personal testimonies in leading others to Christ, drawing insights from John 4:39-42. He reflects on how a simple encounter between Jesus and a Samaritan woman sparked faith not only in her life but also among her entire community. Randy invites listeners to recognize the pivotal role their own testimonies can play in initiating faith journeys for others, emphasizing that genuine belief is birthed through personal experiences with Christ. He highlights that while the Samaritan woman's account was crucial, it was the direct engagement with Jesus that deepened faith in those around her. This episode serves as a compelling reminder that sharing what God has done in our lives can be a powerful invitation for others to seek Him. As the discussion unfolds, Randy encourages believers to embrace their calling to share their stories with humility and sincerity, reinforcing that faith is not merely about recounting testimonies but about fostering a personal relationship with Jesus. He concludes with a prayer for courage and sensitivity to the spiritual needs of others, urging everyone to seize opportunities to share their faith. Listeners are invited to tune in next time as Randy begins a three-part series on God's provision amid scarcity, promising to equip believers with faith "one bite at a time."

The Cost of Rebellion

In Episode 97 of Bible Bytes, we examine the tragic downfall of Zedekiah, the final king of Judah, and explore what his story teaches us about leadership, fear, and accountability. Although Zedekiah repeatedly heard God's warnings through the prophet Jeremiah, he struggled to act upon what he knew to be true. As fear and political pressure influenced his decisions, Judah moved steadily toward the destruction of Jerusalem and the Babylonian captivity. Through a study of 2 Kings 25:2–7, we discover that knowing God's will is not the same as obeying God's will. We examine how fear can lead leaders away from obedience, why leadership carries accountability, and how God's warnings are often expressions of mercy rather than merely announcements of judgment. Zedekiah's story reminds us that delayed obedience and compromise can produce consequences that affect far more people than we realize. Whether you are facing a difficult decision, wrestling with fear, or seeking to lead others faithfully, this episode offers practical encouragement for trusting God's Word and following His direction with courage. Join us as we learn why the safest path is always obedience and how God's grace continues to invite us to choose faith over fear.

Daily Devotionals: God Is Still Working in You

In this episode, we reflect on the idea that our lives may not be where we expected them to be, but that God is still at work in us. We use Philippians 1:6 to emphasize that the good work God begins will be brought to completion. We also discuss spiritual growth as a process that can feel slow or inconsistent, and we encourage patience with our current stage of growth. The episode concludes with a prayer for trust, patience, and confidence that God is continuing to work in our lives If Bible Bytes Daily Devotionals has encouraged you in your walk with Christ and deepened your understanding of Scripture, we invite you to partner with us in continuing this work.

Hope in Exile and God's Long-Term Purposes

In Episode 96 of Bible Bytes, we continue our "People in the Bible in Prison" series by examining the life of King Jehoiachin and his years of captivity in Babylon. After reigning for only three months, Jehoiachin was removed from his throne and carried away into exile as part of God's judgment upon Judah. From a human perspective, it appeared that the kingdom was lost, God's promises were in jeopardy, and hope had disappeared. Yet even during decades of captivity, God was still at work accomplishing His long-term purposes. Through a study of 2 Kings 24:15 and the remarkable conclusion of Jehoiachin's story in 2 Kings 25:27-30, we explore how God's discipline differs from abandonment, why His plans often unfold over years or even generations, and how believers can maintain hope during seasons of waiting. We also examine the broader context of the Babylonian Exile and discover how God preserved the Davidic line that would ultimately lead to the coming of Jesus Christ. Whether you are facing unanswered prayers, difficult circumstances, or a season where God's plans seem unclear, Jehoiachin's story offers powerful encouragement. Join us as we learn how to trust God's timing, remain faithful during periods of uncertainty, and find confidence in the truth that God's promises remain secure even when His purposes are not immediately visible.

Faith in Waiting: Lessons from Hannah’s Patience

In this episode of Bible Bytes, I reflect on Hannah’s journey from anguish to adoration and explore her prayer in 1 Samuel 2:1–10. We consider how her song reveals God’s holiness, justice, and mercy, and how the Lord reverses human circumstances—lifting the humble and humbling the proud. I highlight timeless lessons on persistent prayer, trusting God’s sovereignty in seasons of waiting, and responding with worship before outcomes are resolved. Together, we’re invited to examine our posture in the waiting, cultivate endurance, and recognize God’s faithful work in every season. I also connect Hannah’s prophetic praise to the broader redemptive story pointing forward to Israel’s king and ultimately to Christ. As we internalize these truths, we’re encouraged to practice steadfast devotion, rejoice in God’s character, and embrace waiting as a place where faith is forged and hearts are shaped for worship. Stay tuned as we preview our next series on Esther and the courage to act “for such a time as this.” If Bible Bytes has encouraged you in your walk with Christ and deepened your understanding of Scripture, we invite you to partner with us in continuing this work.

Consequences, Repentance, and God’s Strength

In Episode 95 of Bible Bytes, we continue our "People in the Bible in Prison" series by examining the captivity of Samson in Judges 16. Unlike Joseph, whose imprisonment resulted from unjust suffering, Samson's captivity came after years of compromise, poor decisions, and spiritual drift. Blinded, bound, and forced into prison by the Philistines, Samson's story serves as a powerful reminder that even those greatly blessed by God are not immune to the consequences of disobedience. Together, we explore how small compromises can gradually lead believers away from God's best, the reality that our choices often carry lasting consequences, and the danger of relying upon our own strength instead of depending upon the Lord. Samson's life challenges us to examine areas where we may be ignoring spiritual warning signs and encourages us to pursue obedience, humility, and faithfulness in our daily walk with God. Yet this episode is ultimately not a story about failure—it is a story about God's grace. Even in prison, God was not finished with Samson. Through repentance and renewed dependence upon the Lord, Samson discovered that true strength comes from God alone. Join us as we explore what Samson's imprisonment can teach us about consequences, repentance, restoration, and the strength that God provides when we humbly turn back to Him.
