BIBLE STUDY PODCAST

Mission Hills Church

As we all know, life can get crazy busy with well…life. Everyone has seasons that don’t allow for heavy time commitments to a weekly Bible study at their church or in their neighborhood. That’s why we’ve created a podcast space where you can come and go, as your schedule allows, that points you toward Jesus and His Word. Each season, a combination of our hosts – Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Kelly Meadows, and Matt Winter – will discuss a Bible study and share with you what they have learned and how God is moving in their lives as they go through the study.

  1. Ep8 | What do you do with Jesus? | Luke 24:45–53

    MAY 19

    Ep8 | What do you do with Jesus? | Luke 24:45–53

    What do you do when everything you believed changes suddenly? In this final chapter of Luke, we see confusion turn into clarity, fear turn into joy, and followers of Jesus wrestle with one big question: Now what? From the empty tomb to the road to Emmaus to the ascension, Luke 24 shows us something deeply human—we don’t always understand right away. But Jesus meets us in the process. He opens minds. He walks with us. And through the Holy Spirit, He gives us the power to live differently. If you’ve ever struggled to understand God, felt stuck in performance, or wondered what your faith actually looks like in real life… this conversation is for you. ✨ In this episode, we explore: ▪ Why the resurrection changes everything ▪ What it means to move from confusion to understanding ▪ The role of the Holy Spirit in your everyday life ▪ How to live out your faith without performance or pressure You don’t have to have it all figured out. Just take the next step. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ Where in your life do you feel like the disciples—confused, uncertain, or asking “now what?” ✅ Is your relationship with God feeling more like performance… or connection? Why? ✅ How have you experienced moments where Scripture went from something you knew to something you understood? ✅ What might it look like for you to rely more on the Holy Spirit this week instead of your own effort? ✅ If Jesus asked you today, “What are you doing with me?”—how would you answer? ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Brian Laney 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

    Ep7 | The Day Everything Broke (And Everything Changed) | Luke 22:47-23:25

    What really happened at the cross—and what does it mean for you today? In this powerful episode, we walk through Luke 23, the moment where Jesus stands trial, is rejected by the crowd, and ultimately gives His life on the cross. But this isn’t just history—it’s deeply personal. We explore: ▪️Why Jesus chose not to defend Himself ▪️The difference between fascination with Jesus and true surrender ▪️How two criminals had the same moment… but made different choices ▪️What it means that Jesus was declared innocent again and again ▪️Why the cross exposes not just His love—but our brokenness This conversation is honest, reflective, and rooted in Scripture. Whether you’ve followed Jesus for years or you’re just exploring faith, this episode will challenge you to ask: 👉 What will you do with Jesus? ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ Where in your life are you tempted to “save yourself” instead of trusting God’s plan? ✅ Which response do you relate to more right now—the mocking criminal or the one who believed? Why? ✅ What does it mean to you that Jesus was declared innocent… yet still chose the cross? ✅ Is there a place in your life where God is inviting you to surrender, not control? ✅ How does sitting with the reality of the cross (not rushing to the resurrection) change your perspective this week? ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Brian Laney 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

    APR 21

    Ep6 | Hope in the Darkness | Luke 22:47-23:25

    What do you do when your faith feels heavy… or even confusing? In this episode of the Mission Hills Bible Study Podcast, we walk through one of the most intense and emotional moments in the book of Luke—Jesus’ trial, Peter’s denial, and the beginning of the crucifixion story. This isn’t an easy passage. It’s raw. It’s honest. And it forces us to wrestle with real questions about pain, fear, doubt, and what it means to trust God when things don’t make sense. Together, we explore: ● Why Jesus allowed darkness to have a moment ● What Peter’s failure teaches us about grace ● How our motives shape our faith more than we realize ● What it looks like to stay close to God in hard seasons If you’ve ever struggled with doubt, fear, or feeling overwhelmed—this conversation is for you. 👉 Take a moment. Slow down. And discover how even in the darkest moments, God is still at work. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ When you think about this part of Jesus’ story, what emotions come up for you—and why? ✅ Where in your life do you feel like “darkness is having a moment” right now? ✅ Peter stayed close… but still failed. What does that teach you about grace? ✅ Are there areas in your life where fear is louder than trust? What would it look like to bring that to God honestly? ✅ What’s one small step you can take this week to stay close to Jesus—even if it feels hard? ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Brian Laney 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

  4. Ep4 | When Everything Feels Like It’s Falling Apart | Luke 21:5-38

    APR 7

    Ep4 | When Everything Feels Like It’s Falling Apart | Luke 21:5-38

    In Luke 21, Jesus says something that must have shocked His disciples: the temple they admired would one day fall. Why would Jesus bring this up during His final week before the cross? In this episode, we explore how Jesus prepares His followers for uncertain times—and how His words still speak to us today. From anxiety and people-pleasing to fear about the future, we talk about the things we tend to anchor ourselves to instead of God. You’ll hear practical insights about: • Trusting God when life feels unstable, • Preparing your heart before "crisis" hits, • Staying rooted in faith when the world feels chaotic. Life may feel messy, but Jesus invites us into a deeper freedom—one where we don’t have to carry the weight of the world on our own. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ What do you tend to rely on for security when life feels uncertain? Is it something temporary, or something eternal? ✅ Which of the burdens mentioned in the conversation—control, anxiety, approval, or security—do you struggle with most? ✅ How might practicing spiritual habits now (prayer, Scripture, community) prepare your heart for difficult seasons later? ✅ Jesus says not to be weighed down by the anxieties of life. What is currently weighing on your heart? ✅ What would it look like this week to lift your eyes toward Jesus instead of focusing only on the chaos around you? ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Brian Laney 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

    MAR 31

    Ep3 | The Cornerstone We Trip Over | Luke 20-21:4

    In Luke 20, religious leaders try to trap Jesus with a simple question: “By what authority are you doing these things?” But Jesus turns the conversation around—and suddenly the real issue is exposed. In this episode, the team explores how pride, fear of people, and spiritual assumptions can keep us from recognizing the truth right in front of us. They also wrestle with one of Jesus’ most powerful images: the cornerstone we either build our lives on… or stumble over. If you’ve ever struggled with faith, authority, or what it really means to follow Jesus, this conversation invites you to slow down, open Scripture, and discover Jesus again. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ What expectations do I have about how God should work in my life? Could those expectations keep me from recognizing what He’s actually doing? ✅ Where in my life might Jesus be inviting me into a deeper kind of peace—not just comfort? ✅ When Jesus cleared the temple, He was restoring what had been corrupted. Are there areas of my life where God may be asking to do that same restoring work? ✅ What helps me recognize God’s presence in everyday moments? ✅ If I truly believed Jesus is the King He claims to be, what would I surrender to Him this week? ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Brian Laney 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

    Ep2 | When Jesus Doesn’t Meet Your Expectations | Luke 19:28–48

    What happens when Jesus shows up—but not the way we expected? In Luke 19, Jesus finally arrives in Jerusalem. The crowds celebrate Him as king, shouting praise and welcoming Him with excitement. But Jesus knows something they don’t: many of these same voices will soon turn against Him. In this episode, we explore the tension of this moment. Why did Jesus ride into the city on a donkey? Why does He weep over Jerusalem? And why does the Prince of Peace walk into the temple and start flipping tables? Along the way, we talk honestly about how we often approach God with our own expectations—and what it looks like to recognize Jesus for who He truly is. Wherever you’re at in life or faith, you’re welcome here. Let’s open God’s Word together and discover what He might be teaching us today. ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ What expectations do I have about how God should work in my life?

    MAR 17

    Ep1 | When Jesus Turns Everything Upside Down | Luke 19-24

    The story of Jesus is familiar to many of us—but what if we slowed down and looked again? In this first episode of our new Bible study season, we begin a journey through the final chapters of the Gospel of Luke, leading all the way through the passion, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus. Before we dive into the story itself, we take time to explore the big picture: Why Luke wrote his Gospel, what makes Luke’s account unique, the surprising themes woven throughout the book, and the question Luke quietly asks every reader: What will you do with Jesus? Along the way, we talk about: • The upside-down Kingdom of God, • Why Jesus consistently moved toward the marginalized, • How Luke highlights the reactions people had when they encountered Christ, • And why even familiar stories like Easter can still transform us. If life feels busy and you don’t have time for a full Bible study, this podcast was created for you. Come listen, reflect, and discover Jesus in His Word—one episode at a time. 📖 Next Week’s Passage: Luke 19:28–48 ============================= Reflection Questions: ============================= ✅ When you hear the story of Jesus today, does it feel fresh or familiar? Why do you think that is? ✅ Luke repeatedly shows people responding to Jesus. What kind of response do you see in your own life right now? ✅ Jesus often moved toward people others overlooked. Who might God be inviting you to notice this week? ✅ Where might God be turning your expectations upside down—just like He did for people in Luke’s Gospel? ✅ What would it look like for you to slow down and truly sit with the story of Jesus this week? ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Brian Laney 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland   A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved
