The Bible Tribe Podcast

Listen in as Radio Show host, Author, speaker and Bible teacher Kim Wier shares from her new book, "The Art of F...

Friendship is hard to come by in a world where we can have 1,000 friends on social media but hardly ever interact with them. But God made us for fellowship and there is an art to friendship that can help us to move past the obstacles that hinder true community. Listen in as Radio Show host, Author, speaker and Bible teacher Kim Wier shares from her new book, "The Art of Friendship."

Relationships can be tricky. Expectations and selfishness can kill relationships. To find a healthy relationship we have to be healthy ourselves. And perhaps our goal in the relationship is about serving and blessing others rather than wondering what those relationships can do for us. Listen in as we consider how we can form godly relationships in our lives.

Have you accepted the "Re-gift challenge" this month on the Black and White podcast? When God has been so generous with us, we have so many opportunities to do the same. Listen in as Denise and Angela share how to re-gift generosity.

We are challenging ourselves this month to give as Christ has given to us—in particular, spiritual gifts. We were not given gifts from our sweet Savior to hoard, but to share them with others. Last week we looked afresh at forgiveness and this week and this week we look at how Christ served us. Can we do the same and sacrificially serve others? How are you stewarding what God has given? Don't allo...

It's easy to think about bad things that can happen. Fears that tend to govern our thought life. We can worry about the "what if's" and rob ourselves of peace.

When we compare to others, suddenly what seemed like enough no longer is. Contentment is replaced by envy when we allow comparison to rob us. God's definition of us is the truth we need to cling to.
