In what may be our last episode for a while, we look at God--is He a God of wrath and judgement? What do His names say about Him, and what has He shown of His character in just the first 25 chapters of the Bible? If you see the God of the OT as wielding lightning bolts, you may be in for a surprise.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Writing in Faith

The Lord Provides

Today we read through Genesis 17-19, and what we mean by faith, law, and righteousness. There's a lot of anger, frustration, and hate flying around out there because of those who don't follow the law--but should we as Christians expect them to? Do we, ourselves, follow the law? Some uncomfortable topics and questions, but important to ask and answer honestly in our growth toward Christ-likeness. I hope you'll join me.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Faith and Law

Today we're looking at the on again/off again faithfulness of Abram and Sarai, and one of the most beautiful passages of God's faithfulness anywhere in the Bible. We need to always remember it depends on Him, not on us--and that's where true freedom lies.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Un/Faithful

Another week, another Special Episode--changes are coming! Spring is in the air, motivation was down the drain, and a golden opportunity to grow my faith in God is here. Lots to discuss, and more to come, take a listen and let me know what you think!Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

In Faith - New Format

Today we look closer at the story of Babel in Genesis 11, tracking God's sovereignty through the scattering of language, people, and how He lead Terah, Abram, Sarai, and Lot from Ur to Haran to Canaan. When life doesn't seem to line up with what God promised, we sometimes need to remember just who is in charge!Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Sovereignty in the Scattering

This week we consider God's timing as we look through the events of the Flood, and the beauty of His first covenant. Sometimes it's easy to think God can move immediately--and He can--but no matter what speed, it is always perfect timing. The best thing we can do is follow His steps.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

God's Timing

This episode takes a brief break from Genesis to let you know what&apos;s been going on behind the scenes here, and why I&apos;m recanting Episode 8: Genesis 5-6. You can find the text of the correction at danieldydek.com/blog.The episode itself will be revised, so if you&apos;ve listened to it after Feb. 13, 2021 there is no correction to be made.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Special Episode 40: Update, Apology, Correction

This week we&apos;re diving into Genesis 5, and a little bit of 6, working our way through our first big genealogy and some difficult verses about the Nephilim, and God&apos;s regret at making mankind. There&apos;s a lot to distract us here, so let&apos;s keep Christ in front of us as we go.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Don't Follow the Rabbit

This week we look at Cain and Abel&apos;s sacrifices, and when sin crouches at our doors. When someone else&apos;s sacrifice is "better" than ours, how do we respond? How do we feel? Is it the worship that is misguided, or us? Listen in to find out how to navigate through some of these questions, and more!Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Early Religion

Today we talk about the unpopular and uncomfortable topic of the consequences of our sins. Thanks be to God it&apos;s not the end of the story--but it is part of the story, and we need to understand and acknowledge it if we are ever to be mature Christians. So, let&apos;s get through it today and be grateful for a Savior!Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Fallout of Sin

Today we&apos;re in Genesis 3, where we&apos;ll be for at least two weeks. For now we&apos;re just looking at the temptation of Eve and Adam, and then a whole slew of New Testament verses as we find out some common tricks of Satan, and what sin itself actually is. We finish with a mental image that will hopefully help us to rightfully compare what Satan offers and what God offers.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Sin and Temptation

This is an update episode, first to announce that the podcast is back! It's been too long a hiatus, but we'll quickly be diving back into Genesis 3. For today, here's what's been going on for me since July last year, and what we have to look forward to for 2021.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Happy New Year, 2021!

Hey all, work and life can be hectic! So through the summer, until the end of October, look for new episodes every other week, beginning next Saturday, August 8. Hope you'll join me!Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

August 2020 Interim Update

Today we read through Genesis 2, and look at a scattering of New Testament passages that quote from it, all on the topic of marriage--the two becoming one flesh. The goal is to ask some important questions about the creational reality of marriage, to get us thinking about what God has designed versus what man has turned into ceremony and tradition.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

The Two Become One

Today&apos;s Passage: Genesis 1-2:3.Was the earth created in 7 days, or billions of years? Does it matter? Today we read through the first part of the Creation story, spending most of our time talking about why the earth may not have been created in 7 calendar days; then reversing in one quick passage from John 2 to show why we can accept a &apos;young&apos; earth and a literal interpretation of Genesis 1. Most importantly, we talk about what the Creation story tells us about God.Support the show (https://ko-fi.com/danieldydek)

Creation vs. Evolution

Writing in Faith is a podcast about the Christian and writing life. Each week we study a verse or passage of Scripture and talk about how to apply it to your walk with Christ; then we take a principle from that devotion and see how it fits into the writing life as well.
