The Glory of Jesus
Â
The desire to see God, to hear His voice, to have some tangible evidence of His presence with us is deeply human. When we are consumed by our failures, our doubt, our trials and tragedies, we yearn for the assurance that God is with us—that He really is there, that He sees us, and that He won'...

The Light Still Shines
Â
John wants us to be thinking about Genesis as we read his gospel. This is evident from his opening lines and is reinforced over and over again throughout the narrative. And where does Genesis begin? It begins with the Spirit of God, hovering over the dark waters of an unformed void. No light. ...

When You Can't See the Way
Â
The book of Exodus tells the story of God’s deliverance.
It’s a story most of us know well: Israel had been trapped in slavery in Egypt for generations when God rescued His people with His mighty hand. And then, almost immediately, they found themselves standing in the wilderness.
Isn't that h...

Who Sees Clearly?
Â
A woman stands, shaking in fear. The religious leaders who have dragged her there demand her death, a crowd begins to form, looking on, in curiosity and shock. She has become a tool in their argument, her very life an afterthought to their schemes.
The religious elite have brought here here. ...

Children of God or Children of Satan?
Â
John 8 is a chapter filled with people trying to prove who they are. Again and again, the people surrounding Jesus make claims about their identity, their beliefs, and their relationship with God. They stand before God Himself in ignorance and insist they know better because of who they are.

Not Even His Brothers
Some years back my husband and I knew we had been called to make a move. We knew God was leading us to leave our home in Missouri and move south. We'd prayed. We'd fleeced. We'd become convicted. And nobody understood it. It was difficult for our extended family to accept that after living near ...

John 6 Pt 2 One Would Betray Him
There is so much powerful teaching in the 6th chapter of John. So many rich promises and lofty theology. But it's always the closing lines of the chapter that linger in my soul.Â
In John's story, Jesus has been hard at work over the preceding days. He has fed thousands, calmed a storm, and declar...

The Boy Who Let Go
Â
One of the few stories that appears in all four gospel accounts is the story of Jesus feeding the 5,000 on a hilltop. And it's a beautiful story, a story that I didn't fully understand until studying it here at inBible, and if you haven't listened to our episode on John 6, I'd recommend it.Â

From Creation to Resurrection
Â
After Jesus heals the man by the pool, the Jewish leaders are enraged because Jesus has instructed the man to carry his mat on the sabbath—a task that was considered work by the Jews. And what follows is a lengthy teaching in which Jesus starts to say things like He is the son of God and God g...

How Can These Things Be?
Â
Jesus' conversation with Nicodemus is as theologically rich as it is short. In this story, one of the most prominent teachers in all of Israel (Nicodemus) comes to inquire of Jesus. Sure, he comes under cover of darkness, and yes, he is only willing to acknowledge that Jesus is one of many te...

An Ordinary Gospel
Â
Sometimes I worry that because the good news of the gospel is so familiar to us, that we've lost it's power. Have we made it ordinary? A part of our lives that we know, but keep safely tucked away, careful to not let it disrupt our daily life too much? Or maybe something that has simply become...

He Dwells Among Us
Â
The great epic that is the Bible begins with a clear conflict: the divine breathes life into humanity in order to live in community with us, but once sin arrives, this intimacy is shattered. Humanity finds itself thrust outside of Eden and away from God, in a position that they were never crea...
