1 Corinthians 13

We can be knowledgeable, eloquent, wise and charitable, but the true measure of our spiritual state is not determined by any of these impressive characteristics. Today on The Bible Study Hour, Dr. Boice will offer us a simple, two-question test that can identify the mark of any true believer. Let’s continue our series on “Great Chapters of the Bible” with a look into 1 Corinthians 13.

Matthew 5

Of all the teachings, parables and sermons our Lord presented during his time on earth, there’s probably none better known than the beatitudes. But while it’s one of the most well-known passages of Scripture, it’s often the most misunderstood. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he seeks to reveal Jesus’ motives and meaning behind the well-known blessings we know as the beatitudes.

John 14

Jesus began and ended the 14th chapter of John with a similar command: that His followers were not to let their hearts be troubled. And in between, He gives them—and us—the reasons why we should have peace, even in the midst of dire circumstances. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he takes us through a familiar passage many have turned to for comfort in times of tribulation.

Luke 2:10-12

As the angels appeared over the fields of Bethlehem and revealed themselves to the shepherds, a great fear came over them. Yet at the same time, a great feeling of joy filled their hearts as they witnessed that momentous event. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he studies the reasons the angels’ message was one of great joy to both the shepherds and those who welcome the Savior today.

Luke 1:26-38

The first Christmas came silently. It was neither commercial nor materialistic. It was, instead, a purely spiritual event. So then, why is Christmas so wonderful, even in this materialistic age? Perhaps it’s because of the inexplicable miracles that accompanied our Savior’s birth. Join Dr. James Boice on The Bible Study Hour as he explores each of the three miracles surrounding the birth of Christ.

Romans 8

Today on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’ll look at a passage that delivers great news by unpacking an important sequence of events that began in eternity past. And we’ll learn what our belief in the hope of the gospel today has to do with Joshua and Caleb’s mission into the promise land all those years ago. Thanks for joining us for this powerful, practical study of Romans 8.

Romans 3

In an impressively rich, yet condensed presentation of Christian theology, one single chapter of Romans sums up the entire gospel. Today on The Bible Study Hour, Dr. Boice will teach on this incredible chapter, which he refers to as the very “heart of the Bible.” We’ll get a theology lesson and learn why trying to earn salvation is like attempting to pay for groceries with monopoly money.

Psalm 1

Consequences. Judgment. Accountability. It’s no secret that these aren’t especially popular terms in our modern age of tolerance. But the Bible isn’t shy about our what God requires of us -- and it’s a calling that comes with instructions, standards, and a metaphorically narrow path. Thanks for tuning into The Bible Study Hour today as Dr. Boice unpacks the Biblical secret to the “good life.”
