The Abraham Experiment (Re-Release)

What happens when humans misuse the gifts God gives them? From Eve’s attitude toward the births of Cain and Seth, to the Tower of Babel, to Abraham’s response to the promised land, the stories in Genesis reveal a tension between God’s abundant generosity and humanity’s selfish responses. This tension continues when the people of Israel reside in the promised land—a gift they repeatedly misuse. In this re-released episode from 2019, Tim and Jon trace the theme of generosity and scarcity from Genesis to Deuteronomy, uncovering what it means for us today.

God as the Generous Host (Re-Release)

The Bible begins with a portrait of God as an amazing and generous host to humanity, an image that is on full display in the Genesis creation narrative. But the humans ruin the party in Eden by believing the lies that God is stingy and withholding. In this re-released episode from 2019, Jon and Tim start at the beginning of the Bible, where God seeks to be generous and gracious, and where humans respond with suspicion, greed, jealousy, and murder.

Abundance or Scarcity (Re-Release)

What comes to mind when you think of generosity? Is it sharing your money, resources, or even time with others? For the biblical authors, generosity is much more than an act of kindness—it’s a reality woven into the universe, starting with the generous Creator. In this re-released of our 2019 series on generosity, Jon and Tim start by exploring Jesus’ perspective on resources and the Hebrew Bible’s portrayal of God’s gracious abundance.

A House on Rock and a House on Sand

Sermon on the Mount E37 –  The final teaching of the Sermon on the Mount addresses the most important aspect of the choice Jesus presents to his listeners. Where does the path that we choose lead us? Jesus describes two builders—a foolish man who builds his house on sand and a wise man who builds his house on rock. When the storm comes, the house on sand is destroyed, while the house on rock remains standing. This seems straightforward, but unpacking the biblical themes of houses, cities, and floodwaters reveals deeper implications for Jesus followers in every generation. Listen in as Tim and Jon conclude their discussion of the sermon by exploring how Jesus' teachings equip us to weather storms outside of Eden, just as Jesus' life ultimately overcame the floodwaters of death.

True and False Prophets

Sermon on the Mount E36 –  In the second part of the final section of the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus emphasizes the tension present in the choice between two paths. How do we know if someone is leading us toward the path to life, and whose voice should we listen to? Jesus uses the images of a sheep in wolf’s clothing and trees bearing fruit to emphasize the wisdom needed to identify those who truly represent him. In this episode, Tim and Jon wrestle with the challenge of discerning God's words and recognizing the true destination of someone's path, regardless of the direction they claim.

If We Don’t Forgive Others, Will God Not Forgive Us?

Sermon on the Mount Q+R 4 (E35) – Can Jesus’ riddle about the good eye and the bad eye also apply to Genesis 3? Does the Bible offer conflicting views on the topic of testing? What is the connection between asking God for our daily bread and Jesus calling himself the “Bread of Heaven?” Does God forgive us only after we forgive others?

The Narrow and Wide Gates

Sermon on the Mount E34 – Jesus closes the Sermon on the Mount by presenting his listeners with a choice, illustrated in three parts. He first describes two gates and two paths. The narrow gate is difficult to enter, but it opens up the way to life. The wide gate is easy to navigate, but it leads to ruin. In this episode, Tim and Jon explore the choice we all must make after listening to Jesus’ words and how the decision to live out our true calling as humans is challenged daily by paths that appear easier.

What Makes the Golden Rule the Greatest Command?

Sermon on the Mount E33 – The final teaching in the main body of the Sermon on the Mount is commonly known as the Golden Rule: do to others what you would have them do to you. Jesus says that all of the Law and Prophets—everything he has come to fulfill—are contained in this one statement. How? In this episode, Tim and Jon unpack what many consider Jesus’ most famous teaching.

What Does Jesus Mean by Ask, Seek, and Knock?

Sermon on the Mount E32 – In his fourth teaching on relationships and conflict in the Sermon on the Mount, Jesus encourages his listeners to ask God for what they need. Because the three previous teachings don't directly tell us how to respond in specific situations, Jesus emphasizes that the challenges of relationships require wisdom that comes from a deep dependence on God. In this episode, Tim and Jon discuss Jesus’ invitation for his followers to relate to God as a loving and generous Father who delights in giving us good gifts.Timestamps ---Chapter 1: Ask, Seek, Knock (00:00-19:25) ---Chapter 2: James and the Sermon on the Mount (19:25-34:48) ---Chapter 3: Connecting My World to the Wisdom of Jesus 9 (34:48-54:24) Referenced Resources ---Check out [ Tim’s library here.] (https://bibleproject.com/tim-mackie/) ---You can experience our entire library of resources in the BibleProject app, available for [ Android] (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bibleproject) and [ iOS] (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bibleproject/id1523687027) .

Why Does Jesus Talk About Pearls and Pigs?

Sermon on the Mount E31 – Is it possible to evaluate the behavior of others in a healthy way? Jesus offers two parables that illustrate the wisdom needed to evaluate someone else's behavior.

Is There Ever a Time to Judge Others?

Sermon on the Mount E30 – After the four-part section on our relationship to money, Jesus turns to addressing our relationships with each other. He begins with the command to not judge. But judging can mean condemnation—or it can mean evaluation. So when is it acceptable to judge someone? And what does that mean for how we will be judged? In this episode, Tim and Jon unpack a challenging command that calls for a deep understanding of God’s generosity to compel us to respond generously to each other.  Timestamps ---Chapter 1: God, Money, and Relationships (00:00-10:47) ---Chapter 2: Measurements in the Marketplace (10:47-15:43) ---Chapter 3: Judgement (15:43-28:20) ---Chapter 4: Sorting The Field (28:20-48:28) Referenced Resources --- [The Divine Conspiracy: Rediscovering Our Hidden Life In God] (https://www.amazon.com/Divine-Conspiracy-Rediscovering-Hidden-Life/dp/0060693339) by Dallas Willard ---Check out [ Tim’s library here.] (https://bibleproject.com/tim-mackie/) ---You can experience our entire library of resources in the BibleProject app, available for [ Android] (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bibleproject) and [ iOS] (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/bibleproject/id1523687027) .

What Does Jesus Say About Money? (Studio Conversation)

Sermon on the Mount E28 – In his third teaching on money, Jesus issues a warning about elevating wealth to the position of God in our lives. To describe wealth, Jesus uses the word “mammon,” which can be translated as “the thing in which you trust.” What happens when we put our trust in our wealth? What does Jesus mean by “unrighteous wealth?” And what can it look like to be free from the love of money? In this uncut episode, join Tim and Jon in a long-form dialogue exploring the Parable of the Shrewd Manager and how we can only have one ultimate allegiance—God or money.  Timestamps  ---Chapter 1: Hate One and Love the Other (00:00-13:44) ---Chapter 2: What is Mammon?
