    Surprise, God Has an Enemy | WEEK 4 | Word & the Wild 2025

    It's week FOUR in our one-year Bible reading adventure. This week we pause in the Bible story timeline to step into a mini-series featuring Job. In the book of Job, a dark element inters the story as we learn something new about God – he has an enemy. And that enemy calls into question some of what we have seen so far about the Creator God. *** Word + the Wild is back in 2027 as One Big Story *** The Word + the Wild community is on break for 2026.

    This is WEEK SIX on our one-year Bible adventure... We have crossed over the one-month mark...as we are crossing the desert with Moses and the Israelites. It's all about Exodus this week. In Exodus, God gets personal. We learn his name. We see his heart. We get a peak into his motivations. And... when we push in for that close up, the image we see is intimidating, to say the least. *** Word + the Wild is back in 2027 as One Big Story *** The Word + the Wild community is on break for 2026.
