Day 036: Exodus 21 and the Value of Life Before Birth
Does Exodus 21 treat the unborn child as something less than a full life? A careful reading of this ancient case law—read as law, not as a slogan—shows how Scripture weighs harm, responsibility, and justice when violence endangers life before birth.

Day 039: How Exodus 29 Foreshadows Communion
The priests were not just preparing a sacrifice; they were preparing a meal. They were commanded to eat the very flesh through which atonement had been made for them—a stunning foreshadowing of the Lord’s Supper.

Day 038: When “Close Enough” Isn’t Good Enough (Exodus 25-27)
Grace covers our failures, but it never excuses careless preparation. When God’s people prepared a place for His presence in the wilderness, they brought their very best—because they knew He was worth it.

Day 031: What if They Won’t Listen? (Exodus 4:1)
Through the Bible: Exodus 4-6

Day 029: A Grievous Mourning by the… Egyptians? (Genesis 50:7-11)
When Jacob’s sons returned to Canaan to bury their father, the people of the land assumed they were Egyptians. In less than a generation, God’s people had become indistinguishable from the culture around them—a quiet warning about how easily freedom can forget its true home.

Day 027: Silver in the Sack (Genesis 43:23)
Through the Bible: Genesis 43-45

Day 022: The Speckled Flock Before the Throne (Genesis 31:10-12)
Jacob’s flock was never uniform—striped and spotted, mottled and mismatched. And neither is the flock God is gathering for Himself. From scheming patriarchs to saints and sinners, from every tribe and tongue and nation, God is forming one people by one voice. What we glimpse imperfectly now, we will one day see clearly before the…

Day 021: The Despised and Rejected Bride (Genesis 29)
Leah never wanted to be the patron saint of the unloved. She was despised not because she was cruel or faithless, but because she was not someone else.

Day 019: Why the Oldest Saints Get the Toughest Tests (Gen. 22:1)
Genesis 22 reminds us that God’s hardest tests do not come at the beginning of faith, but after a lifetime of quiet obedience. Abraham’s willingness to offer Isaac was not a reckless act, but the fruit of decades of trust in God. The Lord does not test His people to make them fail, but to…

Day 018: Seeing the God Who Sees You (Genesis 16-18)
Hagar—an Egyptian slave, an outcast, a single mother—does something no one else in Scripture dares to do: she names God. She calls Him El-Roi, the God who sees her. And in that naming, we discover a God who not only sees the unseen, but who welcomes being known by them.

Day 017: Guys, We Need to Talk About Genesis 17:23
Are you willing to trust God with the deepest, most vulnerable part of you?

Day 013: Really, Elihu? (Job 36:1-4)
Job’s friends—and Elihu most of all—say many true things about God. The problem isn’t that they speak falsehoods; it’s that they speak true things in false ways. They turn wisdom into weapons, doctrine into diagnosis, and God’s justice into a cudgel for the suffering. In doing so, they don’t just misread Job—they misrepresent God.

Day 012: Just When You Think You’ll Get Some Answers… (Job 31:40-32:5)
Just when Job finally stops talking—and his three friends fall silent—we expect God to speak. Instead, another voice steps forward. Elihu’s long speech reminds us how often life works this way: just when we think the answers are finally coming, they don’t. Silence stretches on. Hope gets postponed. And we’re left waiting, wondering when resolution…

Day 007: What Job Knew (and Didn’t Know) About the Afterlife (Job 14:13-14)
Job lived long before resurrection had a name, yet he could not accept that death was the end of the story. In Job 14, he asks a question that Scripture will spend centuries answering: If a man dies, shall he live again?
