Dive Studies Podcast

Giving God’s Spirit opportunities to speak to us through the text of Scripture is the heart of what we do in our Dive Studies. Here you will find a growing library of our recorded conversations about specific books of Scripture as well as some of our earlier Dive Studies. Come along with us as we take a slow and deliberate look at different books of the Bible and how each of them points us directly to Jesus as the complete and greatest expression of God’s love for us. You will also find our past seasons of The Recap Podcast, a weekly podcast that follows our Bible Reading Plan. On The Recap we discussed key takeaways during the week from our FREE Bible Reading Plan, which can be downloaded when you sign up for our newsletter!

    The Recap: S3 - E47

    Erin discusses David being unwilling to make a sacrifice which costs him nothing. This has encouraged Erin to work hard on the work God has called her to do and allow it to cost her something. Erin discusses the vastness of God’s justice in how it looks in Obadiah versus Jonah. Erin talks about the power of the tongue in James and encourages us that while we can’t change ourselves, the Spirit transforms us, and we can trust that as our heart becomes more like Christ’s, our tongues will reveal that transformation, too. Finally, Erin recaps what she’s been learning about the way the Old Testament parallels Adam naming the Animals. Also, Christ saying “Take and Eat” fulfills the longing God has been growing in us through the Old Testament since the moment we sinned by “taking and eating” what seemed good for ourselves in Genesis 3.

    The Recap: S3 - E46

    We discuss the significance of the transport of the Arc of the Covenant and the death of Uzza. We talk about commodification in Amos, and God’s desire for us to remain, and keep our attention on Him and what He’s doing. We end the Recap talking about Hebrews 10:24-25 “Let us consider how to stimulate one another to love and good deeds, not forsaking our own assembling together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, ad all the more, as you see the day drawing near.” We discuss the connection to what Paul says in 2 Timothy about avoiding people who “hold to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power.” As the day draws near, we will endure much suffering, and as we do, we will need one another who know God’s power and will encourage us on in the hardship of following Christ.

    The Recap: S3 - E45

    We discuss the consequences of Manasseh’s life, the fact that Josiah’s righteousness couldn’t overcome Manasseh’s terror. This is an example of how every prophet priest and king in the Old Testament falls short of what we need. We are still longing for Jesus. Joel gives us a taste of the gift that the Holy Spirit will be for these Old Testament believers. Hebrews explains it all Erin talks about the fear of death is what keeps us in slavery. As believers we need to get over our fear of death, and then we will live in true freedom.

    The Recap: S3 - E44

    Leadership as idolatry and God’s response to idolaters in Hosea is to take them out to the wilderness and court them like a lover. Erin talks about her formation in leadership and identifies an area of idolatry in her life in the context of Hosea. Anneke and Erin discuss how to navigate relationships with Christians who hold to the form of godliness but deny its power. Paul permits us to avoid these people. We don’t need to be irreconciled, but we also don’t have to spend a lot of time with them. Anneke reminds Erin of the power of prayer to make a difference in people’s relationship with God. Anneke talks about self-control in Titus. Erin talks about the lack of acknowledgment of self in evangelical spirituality can be an obstacle to self-control. Finally, Philemon is discussed as an act of Allyship on Paul's part.

    The Recap: S3 - E43

    In this episode, I cut the content to make a short discussion on 1 Timothy 2. This is the first year we have had a male voice to help break down the typically false teachings around 1 Timothy 2. Women are definitely allowed to speak in church. Women are not prohibited from leadership in any capacity. Listen in as Wes and Erin break down the ways this passage has been misinterpreted and how a true interpretation should be formed.

    The Recap: S3 - E42

    We discussed radical Hospitality with Elisha and the Shumanite woman. The Shumanite woman is recognized forever because she entered into God’s power. She recognized the prophet and joined in the work of God. We need to be in spaces where we can bring all of who we are to the community. We remembered that God is still at work in the mess of his people. This is what gives us the freedom to stay or move on.

    The Recap: S3 - E41

    This week we talk about how messy the Old Testament is and the difference between the role of angels as messengers verses prophets as messengers. Anneke discusses her formation and how critical learning to wonder about the Scriptures is to her maturity. Wes addresses that people are hungry for the Gospel, and often why they're not interested in what we (as evangelicals) offer is because we think we have answers where we should be wondering.

    The Recap: S3 - E40

    In this episode Erin and Anneke talk about Solomon failing even though he had all of the natural resources of wealth and wisdom given to him by God Himself. We discuss the contrast of these limited resources compared to power of God's indwelling Spirit, which we have access to now. We discuss the way the Church today has access to the Spirit and still tries to accomplish so much in its own power leaving casualties to scatter to the Mountains. We talk about how God is faithful to work through a remnant of faithful ones by the power of The Spirit to bring back and tend to the scattered sheep. The Spirit of God is powerful and acts on our behalf.
