EP342: Luke (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Luke gives us one of the most detailed portraits of Jesus in the New Testament. He gives us names, places, witnesses, conversations, parables, meals, miracles, and moments that show us not only what Jesus did but the heart behind it. And one thing keeps showing up again and again: Jesus notices people. The poor. The outsider. The sinner. The person with the bad reputation. The person everybody else walks past. In EP342 of Walking Through the Bible Together, we walk through Luke and meet the Savi
EP:341 Mark (opens the original)
Read excerpt
After about a month away, The Wooden Cricket is back and honestly, Mark might be the perfect Gospel to come back with. Mark moves fast. Jesus arrives, the Kingdom of God is announced, disciples are called, the sick are healed, storms obey Him, sins are forgiven, and one question keeps getting bigger: Who is Jesus?

Read excerpt
We made it. After journeying from Genesis through kings, judges, poets, prophets, victories, failures, exile, restoration, promises and prophecies, we’ve reached the final book of the Old Testament: Malachi. And what a way to finish. Malachi reminds God’s people of His love, calls them back from half-hearted worship, and then leaves them looking toward the horizon: A messenger is coming. The Lord is coming. Get ready. Then the prophetic voice grows quiet. But God hasn’t disappeared. He hasn’t fo
EP338: Zechariah (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever watched a mystery unfold and realized the clues were there all along? That’s exactly what reading the book of Zechariah feels like. Hundreds of years before Bethlehem… Hundreds of years before the cross… Hundreds of years before the empty tomb… God was already revealing His Son. In this episode, we explore some of the most powerful passages in Zechariah and discover Jesus as: 🌿 The Branch 👑 The humble King riding on a donkey 🩸 The One who was pierced 🐑 The Shepherd who was struck A
