Talk Bible To Me

It’s on jerseys, coffee mugs, and Instagram bios, but we’ve missed the point entirely. Paul wasn’t talking about winning championships; he was talking about surviving loss. In this episode, Megan and Kayla rip the sticker off America’s favorite hype verse and reveal its raw, beautiful truth: strength isn’t about striving harder; it’s about standing firm when everything falls apart.

You’ve seen it stitched on pillows, printed on mugs, and hashtagged under every graduation post, “For I know the plans I have for you…” But what if Jeremiah 29:11 wasn’t written for the moment we got our dream job, the house, or the husband? What if it was written for exile? In this episode, Kayla & Megan peel back the layers of this beloved verse to show its true context, a message given to a...

Before we judge Zechariah for doubting an angel, let’s remember: he was just trying to do his priestly job: burn some incense, say some prayers, and not die in the Holy Place. In this episode, we step behind the curtain (pun intended) to explore what temple duty meant for a priest like Zechariah. We’ll unpack how the priesthood worked, why offering incense was a once-in-a-lifetime honor, and what...

In this episode is where we set the table for what’s to come. Here’s the promise: we’re not skimming the surface of Scripture like it’s a fortune cookie. We’re diving deep: rich theology, honest questions, and the kind of bold encouragement that will make you laugh, squirm, and worship, sometimes all in the same breath. Think of it as Spurgeon’s depth with Lewis’s imagination, delivered by your bi...

In this episode, Megan and Emily discuss 1 John 3:19-4:6. They emphasize the importance of testing the spirits and discerning between truth and deception. They also discuss the role of the heart in our emotions (which might now be what you think) and decision-making. The main takeaway is to trust in God's love and forgiveness and to be obedient to His commands.

Have you ever been in a season when everything seems to be going wrong? During that time, it’s usually pretty natural to call out to God regularly. When I went through postpartum depression after having both of my kids, I felt like I was constantly praying, whether I was asking for God’s help or thanking him for getting me through. But when life settled down and depression didn’t consume my days,...

Up to this point, we’ve got a pretty clear picture of the cycles of Israel’s sin. We’ve seen how often they chose other gods before the one true God. But something about chapter nine really gets at the depth of the corruption they had fallen into. As you listen to this week’s podcast, you’ll hear the story about the darkness of the men of Gibeah referenced in verse 9 and how Israel had become bad...

We’ve officially made it over halfway through the book of Hosea! This is the part where readers usually feel a bit worn out with the amount of repetition…and I get it. It’s a lot. If you’re exhausted reading through how many times these things must be said, then you’re on track to understanding the extent to which the Israelites were betraying God. Over and over and over again, they were worshippi...

Join Emily and Megan as they discuss Hosea chapter 7.

Is there someone you’ve been following on Instagram for so long you feel like you know them personally? You could name all of their kids; you know what their house looks like, what happened to them last summer, and what their vacation plans are. It sounds weird to know all of these things about a person and not know them in real life, but such is the nature of social media. But I think, in a sense...

How timely that on this week’s podcast we’re talking about sin and the slow movement of the boundary lines between right and wrong. We are seeing this now more than ever with the overturn of Roe V. Wade in our country last Friday. Americans, even some Christians, are outraged over the decision, going far as to tell other believers not to celebrate because of the emotional harm it may do to unbelie...

I have been a lover of TJMaxx for countless years now. I’d go shopping with my mom for school clothes, then after getting married and having kids of my own it became one of my places to escape for a few hours of solitude. Coffee in hand I would wander the aisles and inevitably I would end up in the journal and book aisle. I always loved that I could find notepads with scripture or maybe a discount...

Can we just dream together for a minute? I want you to picture life without sin. Maybe that means you imagine the Creation story. Or maybe you have an idea of heaven with all sorts of new adventures like being able to fly or swim underwater for unlimited amounts of time! Now I cannot personally tell you all the details of what life without sin will be like after Jesus comes back and the world is m...
