Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing moms out there, including "fur" moms and those longing to be moms.
It is bittersweet tonight as we wrap up the amazing story of Job. God finally speaks and addresses Job and his friends. The ending will give you so much hope! Praise God that He makes all things new and works everything out for our good.
At the beginning of the episode, I share a little bit about my Job season and one of my "whys." I became suddenly chronically ill at the very end of August 2022. It's been quite the journey and the scariest years of my life. I won't go into too much detail but I've been to the ER several times (for the first time in my life) and at times thought I was dying. Insomnia was one of numerous symptoms and I knew that the lack of sleep was preventing my healing. I started searching for Bible stories that I could fall asleep to, but I could never find exactly what I was looking for. I felt this tug on my heart (God) and this push, telling me that I should start my own. A few months later, Bedtime Bible Stories for Adults was born.
There have been challenging moments since shortness of breath is one of my symptoms, but praise God that is improving! I look back now and see how far I've come. I'm working with a functional doctor and working on reframing my thoughts and my brain. Your messages bring me so much encouragement (and tears!). Thank you for your prayers, your donations, and for sharing how the podcast has helped you. I appreciate all of you.

I hope you had a wonderful Good Friday and a blessed Resurrection Sunday! He is risen. Praise God.
I can't believe we are on part 5 of the Story of Job. We only have one more episode after this one. In this episode, we hear from someone new--Elihu. Job has stopped speaking and his friends are also done with their opinions and "words of wisdom." Elihu is younger, but has much to share. He is not happy with Job or his three friends.
We are reading Job 32 through 37.

Part 4 begins with Job speaking again, followed by a response from his friend, Bildad. After that, Job shares his final words with his friends and his final defense. I imagine he is exhausted from trying to justify himself to his friends and calling out to God. My favorite chapter of this episode is chapter 26. Job describes God's powerful works as Creator of the universe. Then he says, "And these are but the outer fringe of his works; how faint the whisper we hear of him! Who then can understand the thunder of his power?" (Emphasis added.) What profound, impactful words. It gives me chills.
We are reading Job chapters 23 through 31. We should have two parts left!

The book of Job is a long one, but full of raw and relatable thoughts. I've enjoyed getting a deeper look at the dialogue between Job and his friends. Job doesn't hold back. Many of you are also in your Job season like I am. Pray for wisdom, for strength, that we will learn quickly if God is trying to teach us something, and that God will use us... even while suffering. Let's thank Him for the story of Job, that allows us to see that greater things are coming!
We are reading Job 15 through 22.

Well, family, we are going to read the entire book of Job! In part 2 we will hear more dialogue between Job and his friends. Job feels very alone in his suffering and his friends are only upsetting him more. How frustrating! And I know many of you have felt that exact way before. Thankfully, we have a Savior who understands us--we don't even have to explain it to Him!
We are reading Job 8 through 14.

The book of Job is very near and dear to my heart. The past two years of my life have been the hardest and scariest years I've ever experienced. Many times I told God I couldn't handle it anymore. I can relate to much of what Job says. For that reason, I'm so thankful that the book of Job was included in the Bible. When hard times come upon us, it's such a source of encouragement. God promises that the pain we are feeling now cannot compare to the joy that is coming. Praise God for that promise!

The people of Israel had God as their King, but they demanded an earthly one. The donkeys of a man named Kish went missing, and he sent his son, Saul, out to look for them. Sometimes God may send us on what may seem like a wild goose chase. But He ALWAYS has a plan. Listen to hear about the first king of Israel.
We are reading 1 Samuel 8, 9, and 10 in the NIV version.

Tonight's episode will consist of beautiful words from Jesus in the book of John. I was skimming through the gospels, and John 3:16 jumped out at me. It felt right for the season. God's only begotten son, the bread of life.
We are reading John 3:1-21, John 4:1-42, John 5:16-47, and John 6:22-69.

The story of Sodom and Gomorrah may not have a very happy ending, but it has several important lessons. I mention one during the episode introduction. Another lesson was pointed out by my pastor this week. Once you choose Jesus... don't look back. "Remember Lot's wife" is a warning in Luke 17:32.We are reading from Genesis 13, 18, and 19.

We finish up Galatians with chapter 4 through 6! Paul continues encouraging the people of Galatia to rely on faith in Jesus for their salvation instead of the law of Moses. He reminds them that they are children of Abraham and heirs to God's kingdom. He also lists out the desires of sinful nature, contrasted by the fruits of the Holy Spirit.
In order to remain eligible for the ads program, I need to use at least one ad in one episode. I will place the ad at the beginning of the most recent episode only, and hopefully this way, it won't interrupt relaxation or sleep if you like to leave the episodes playing. This may just be temporary. Thank you for your understanding!

We have had several requests for the book of Galatians! There will be two parts to cover the entire book. Paul visited Galatia when he traveled, sharing about Jesus. Now he is writing to the church there about several topics, including circumcision and the true source of salvation--faith in the Messiah.
We are reading Galatians 1 through 3.

Friends, I'm excited about this episode. It's a gripping one. You never win when you try to go against God! The Philistines learned this the hard way when they stole the Ark of the Covenant. This is also when Samuel becomes Israel's judge.
We are reading 1 Samuel 4 through 7.

The past few weeks I've been able to return to church--praise God! I've been watching from home for two years because of my health. The last sermon's main verse was from the book of James. It really caught my attention and I knew in that instant that I wanted the next episode to be the book of James. There is a lot of good advice here, including suggestions for healing, which I have been considering. As always, thank you for your patience!
We are reading the entire book of James.

Tonight we continue on in the books of Acts. The apostles are spreading the good news and healing the sick, but they are met with opposition. They decide to appoint seven men to assist with some other duties. Stephen is one of those men. We do not get the typical happy ending with this story. I can't imagine going through what he did. Here we are also introduced to Saul who later becomes Paul. To continue the story, go to the episode called Saul of Tarsus.
We are reading Acts 4:32 through 7.

**Formerly known as The Twelve**
I'm not sure why but I felt really encouraged to read the beginning of Acts about the disciples being sent out into the world to heal and preach about Jesus. Maybe it's because I've gotten so into The Chosen, which helped bring all of them to life. It's interesting that they didn't just stick with eleven apostles. Numbers mean something to God and twelve is seen quite a bit throughout the Bible.
I speak some Spanish and years ago, when my husband and I were traveling in Colombia, we took an Uber to the airport. Our Uber driver turned out to be a Christian who was no longer attending church, but he expressed that he felt bad about having drifted away from God. We had just heard an amazing sermon on following God and being obedient, even if you don't necessarily have the WILL to do it. We may not always have the will, but what we do have is a CHOICE. We can choose to do the right thing, and then the will will follow. I explained this concept to him and the Spanish was fluently flowing out of me. I know it was God giving me that ability. It was such an unreal feeling. The driver got very emotional while we were speaking, and we prayed with him once we arrived to the airport. I praise God for that divine appointment and the gift He gave me in the moment to help that man.
We are reading Acts 1 through 4, stopping at verse 31.

**Trigger warning for this episode: asthenophobia**I apologize that we don't have a good Mother's Day story tonight, but Happy Mother's Day to all the amazing moms out there! We have officially hit 50 episodes, and are returning to the book of Daniel--chapters 7 through 9--covering the first three visions. It may not be the most relaxing story... but it's definitely an important one. The books of Daniel and Revelation provide so much insight to the end of time. Let's all pray for wisdom and understanding when reading and hearing these books.

If you like fairytales, then this is the story for you! A king, a queen, and a beautiful young orphan who becomes a heroine. Together, Esther and her cousin are given a huge opportunity to save their people. God knows what He is doing, and He created us "for such a time as this." We each have a special purpose. Listen to hear about Esther's.
*I just realized that this episode was posted on 4/14 which is a very famous verse in Esther--Esther 4:14!*We are reading Esther 1 through 4.Jamie Winship testimony - https://www.youtube.com/live/wE2YN8EXLLY?si=kAUXCBxkA_orAUPyIf you have been blessed by this podcast and would like toshow your support with a $1 donation, please go to paypal.me/hcharltoncrespin. 10%of any donations I receive goes to the church.

We have a very special episode tonight. It's one of my favorite weekends of the year. We get to focus on and remember the incredible sacrifice that our Savior made for us. What a mixture of emotions. Intense sadness for the pain and agony he went through. It's really tough on my heart to hear that part. But imagine the JOY on Sunday. He is RISEN!We are reading the following:Luke 22:1-6Matthew 26:17-29Luke 22:31-71Luke 23Luke 24:1-12Matthew 28:11-15Luke 24:13-49Mark 16:19-20John 21:25
