このコンテンツについて

Chunks Bible Mini-Podcasts are designed to help you have a richer and more personal understanding of the teaching of Scripture. Each podcast focuses on a particular book or text, and each episode is only 5 to 10 minutes long, so you can listen whenever you have a few minutes to dig in. This podcast focuses on the Old Testament letter of Micah, and is entitled ”Heartache and Hope.” If you’ve ever wanted to understand a bit more about the Old Testament books of prophecy, Micah is a good and relatively brief place to begin. Micah’s message to the people of Israel and Judah is a dire one. Because the people have lost their way and become so thoroughly corrupt, invaders were coming to take over the land and carry them away into exile. But among even the harshest words of judgment are words of a future hope, including the prophecy of a king who will be born in Bethlehem--the prophecy cited by King Herod’s advisors in Matthew’s Christmas story. Micah helps us understand that what God wants is not merely an outwardly religious people, but a people who in their lives together demonstrate God’s character. New episodes will drop every Friday until the book of Micah is finished. About your host: my name is Cameron Lee.

    2024/03/29

    In this final episode, I want to add one important qualification to what's been said in this podcast about God's covenant faithfulness. The teaching of the New Testament is that God initiated a new covenant in Jesus. Knowing the role of covenant faithfulness in books like Micah helps deepen our understanding and appreciation of this important fact!

  • Episode 66: Traveling through time
    2024/03/29

    Our memories of the past shape how we see the present and the future. Because of this, we are all in a sense "time-travelers." This kind of imagination is crucial to hope, and it's the note on which the book ends: the prophet's hope for the future is grounded in his memory of God's past faithfulness.

  • Episode 65: Putting the kibosh on guilt
    2024/03/22

    No one knows for certain the origin of the phrase "to put the kibosh on" something. But my own theory is that it comes to us from Yiddish, and is related to a Hebrew word that Micah uses to describe what a gracious God does to the guilt we incur from our sin.
