Why not make Studying the Bible part of the rhythm of your daily life. The Bible Project Daily Podcast is a 10 year plan to study through the entire Bible, both Old and New Testament, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. Season one is a short overview of each of the sixty-six books of the Bible. Season two launched our expositional journey through the whole Bible beginning with the book of Genesis. Thereafter each season take a New Testament/Old Testament alternatively until the project is complete. (God willing)  Why not join me on this exciting journey as we study the whole Bible together from Genesis to Revelation.

    Is Getting Even Ever the Appropriate Thing to Do? (1 Samuel 24: 1-22)

    Send us a text What do you do when you feel like getting even? How far should retaliation go? Should it happen at all? And what does God call His people to do when the desire for payback burns inside us?  Well, as it happens, as we journey through 1 Samuel, we come to a chapter where this question is placed front and centre. So, let’s turn together to 1 Samuel 24, where David—the man after God’s own heart—is forced to decide whether revenge is ever the right path….

    What to Do When You're in the Middle of Trouble. (1 Samuel 23: 1-29)

    Send us a text Trouble.  It’s one of the few things every human being has in common. When does it start? Some parents might say around age two. When does it end? Well… probably when you draw your final breath. Job said it well: “Man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.” Later, he added, “Man… is of few days and full of trouble.”   So, if you’re breathing today, you probably know exactly what he means. So, here’s the question that matters: What do you actually do when you’re in the middle of it? Not before the trouble, not after the trouble—in it. When your heart is aching, when your mind is spinning, when options feel few and your strength is failing… what then?  The Bible gives us answers, and today we’re going to focus on one story that can help us find one of those answers—it’s about a moment in David’s life when he was surrounded by trouble on every side, and yet somehow he still found the clarity to do what was right.  The Curious Case of Being HumanThe Curious Case of Being Human with Matt Cooper and Isabelle...Listen on: Apple Podcasts   Spotify Support the show To listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|Patreon Support me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere. https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

  3. The Ultimate Consequence of Sin. (1 Samuel 22: 1-23)

    The Ultimate Consequence of Sin. (1 Samuel 22: 1-23)

    Send us a text Sin always has consequences. Scripture teaches that plainly. It affects the sinner directly, of course, but it rarely stops there. Sin has a way of reaching outward—touching, wounding, distorting the lives of others, sometimes in ways the sinner never intended and never imagined. One of the more sobering realities of life in a fallen world is that sin is never a purely private affair. It leaks. It seeps. It spreads. And sometimes the consequences fall most heavily on those who did nothing to deserve it. So, the question I want us to explore in this episode is simple but important: What is the ultimate consequence of sin?

  4. Can you Trust the Lord and Still Tell Lies. (1 Samuel 21: 1-15)

    Can you Trust the Lord and Still Tell Lies. (1 Samuel 21: 1-15)

    Send us a text People like to sort life into neat, tidy categories. And Christians are no exception, we often like to sort life into straightforward ways of approaching things, tidy categories: right and wrong, black and white, faithful or unfaithful. Maybe we assume too easily that if someone trusts the Lord, they will always walk in integrity. Surely a believer who lies must not be trusting God in that moment… right? But what if I told you that a man of sincere faith — a man who deeply loved God, a man the Scriptures themselves describe as having a heart after the Lord — once found himself in a place of great fear, and in that moment… he lied. Boldly. Blatantly. No nuance, no half-truths — a proper, old-fashioned whopper of a lie. The man I’m talking about is David. The story we are about to enter, recorded in 1 Samuel 21, is the beginning of that long, exhausting, ten-year season where David lived on the run. sheltering in caves, hiding in the shadows, and in these moments when fear pressed in— some of the deepest spiritual lessons emerge…..

    A Real Example of Friendship (1 Samuel 20: 1-42)

    Send us a text Friends can be fickle. You’ve probably heard someone say, “When you get into trouble, you find out who your real friends are.” Many of us have lived long enough to know just how true that is. But, what is a true friend? What does genuine, God-honouring friendship look like?  One of the greatest pictures of true friendship in all of Scripture—and indeed in all of ancient literature—is tucked away in 1 Samuel. It’s the story of Jonathan, the son of King Saul, and his relationship with David. Some have called it the finest illustration of loyal friendship ever written.

    God's Method of Doing Things. (1 Sam 19: 1-24)

    Send us a text When we read the Scriptures with any seriousness, we quickly discover that God not only has a purpose—He also has methods. His purposes never fail, but His methods often surprise us.    Sometimes He works through miracles, sometimes through providence, sometimes through judgment, sometimes through mercy. Yet if you watch the biblical story unfold long enough, you see one particular throughline that appears again and again: In that, God accomplishes His purposes through people—ordinary, flawed, faithful people.   1 Samuel 19 gives us one of the clearest pictures of that truth. In this chapter, we watch God preserve David—the man He has chosen as Israel’s next king through relationships, loyalties, conversations, and timely interventions. God weaves His sovereign purpose through very many and varied threads, but all intensely human.

    The Consequences of Jealousy. (1 Samuel 18: 1-30)

    Send us a text When we hear the word jealousy, we often imagine a troubled marriage. But jealousy runs far wider and far deeper than the marriage bond. Jealousy touches friendships, ministries, churches, families, and even communities. It is no small thing. But what exactly is jealousy? Is there a good kind and a bad kind of jealousy? And where does envy fit into this picture? 1 Samuel 18 is one of the clearest and most devastating portraits of jealousy anywhere in Scripture…..

  8. David and Goliath – Sight or Insight. (1 Samuel 17: 1-58)

    DEC 4

    David and Goliath – Sight or Insight. (1 Samuel 17: 1-58)

    Send us a text In this episode, we explore one of Scripture’s most familiar stories—David and Goliath—but with fresh eyes. The true drama isn’t found in the size of the giant, but in the contrast between two ways of living: walking by sight and walking by insight shaped by the Word of God. Everyone in the chapter sees a giant—except David. David sees a blasphemer defying the armies of the living God, and more importantly, he sees the Lord Himself. That difference—sight versus insight—is the difference between fear and faith, paralysis and courage, human calculation and holy confidence. Key Themes 1. The Power of Insight Over Visual Sight Goliath mocks David, seeing only a boy with a stick. David sees a man defying God—an offense that places Goliath not against David but against the Lord of hosts. Those who rely on appearances are inevitably shaken; those who rely on Scripture are strengthened. 2. The Lord Who Delivers David recounts how God rescued him from the lion and the bear—training ground for a giant. His confidence is not in technique, skill, youth, or courage, but in God’s past faithfulness. 3. The Real Battle David declares, “The battle is the LORD’s” (1 Sam. 17:47). Victory is not achieved by sword or spear, but by divine intervention. 4. The Outcome: Fear Flees, Faith Advances When Goliath falls and David uses the giant’s own sword to finish the battle, the Philistines flee. What men interpret as weakness becomes the very means of God’s triumph. 5. The Loose Ends and the Larger Point The chapter closes by identifying David’s father, Jesse—because David’s victory brings reward, promise, and recognition. Yet the deeper truth is theological: Who you are determines what you see. A heart shaped by Scripture sees reality as God defines it. The Takeaway Those who walk by sight are filled with fear. Those who walk by insight—biblical insight—are filled with faith. True courage flows not from personality or temperament, but from knowing God, meditating on His Word, and viewing every circumstance through the lens of His sovereignty.
