Moving on from Noah and the Flood, we find ourselves at an obscure story...the Tower of Babel. There is much speculation surrounding languages, ethnicities, and races that all stem from wrestling with the Tower of Babel story. Is there something else here? Why is this story here? What can we see from our re-reading of Genesis that breathes new life into this narrative?

In this week’s episode, we continue our walk through the flood narrative and the story of Noah. Noah’s story is full of Eden imagery, including chaotic water, trees, mountain tops, and priestly functions. The Flood narrative is not a story of cosmic destruction by the hands of a blood thirsty God. Rather, it is the beautiful recreation & reordering of God’s sacred space, where He chooses to dwell with His creation. Is Noah the promised seed of Adam & Chavah that will crush the serpent’s head? Is Noah the one who will bring the full blessing of the Kingdom of God to the earth and restore Eden? Let’s find out together!

Today, we continue to look at the life of this new Adam, Avram. As children of God, He expects us to grow in the wisdom exampled in the Tree of Life. How does Avram model this life of growing and learning for us? Today's teaching will explore the encouraging and challenging life of Avram.

In last week’s episode, Kyle Sylvest and I dove into the topic of exile as a theme in Scripture. We established a basic exile vocabulary that can help us to read the Bible better. In this week’s episode, Kyle joins me again and we look at how this exile language is can be seen in the prophets.

In the last couple of episodes, we have begun to dig into the theme of exile in Scripture. For the next three weeks, I have the privilege of having my good friend, Kyle Sylvest with me as we further discuss what exile looks like and why it’s important to the Biblical narrative.

When thinking through the main ideas and themes of Scripture, most don’t consider the theme of exile as a major Biblical idea. However, beginning in Genesis, woven through the whole of the Hebrew Bible, and throughout the New Testament, the theme of exile can be seen as the lens through which the Scriptures were written and interpreted. What is exile and death in a Biblical sense? Is the Bible and its Hebrew writers concerned with physical death or something different? What does exile have to do with death? We will tackle these fascinating topics in today’s episode.

OAM is blessed to welcome Hanoch Young, Israeli tour guide and founder of Kol Yehuda. At the core of Hanoch's life is a passion to see complete restoration of all of Israel. Today, Hanoch challenges us with a relevant message on where we stand with regards to Israel. Do we have the courage to be blessed?

As we think about the entirety of Scripture, we rarely think about God's story in terms of exile. However, as Adam & Eve are exiled from the garden of Eden in the beginning of the story, the entire rest of the Bible is a story of restoration and return from exile. When we begin to see this beautiful story in the pages of our Bibles, we begin to find our place in the restoration of all things.

Shalom everyone. In this episode, we continue our walk through the first few chapters of Genesis by picking up where we left off in last week's discussion. Genesis 2 & 3 provide some interesting reading in the form of a talking snake, trees, and some sort of forbidden fruit. Are we expected to read this as a Snow White type of story, where Adam and Eve eat of a magical apple thereby transforming their once immortal and perfect make up into a sin-sick creature? What type of "fruit" was eaten or does it even matter? Is there a bigger story being communicated here? All this and more in today's episode.

As we move through the first few chapters of Genesis, we find ourselves suddenly confronted with "the serpent" in chapter 3. The serpent has no introduction or back story, it simply shows up. Although there are many opinions as to who or what the serpent was, we may find it profitable to ask what the initial and ancient hearers may have understood it to be. Join the conversation as we discuss the serpent...a talking snake or something else?

In Genesis 2, God plants a garden, places the man (Adam) in the garden, and gives Adam a specific function as it relates to the garden. What exactly is the image of the Garden? How are we to understand Adam and his function in this Garden? In this episode, we begin to look at the beautiful message of identity and function being communicated by the ancient writers.
