Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today’s episode, host Hunter invites us to journey together through the Scriptures on this 10th day of June. We’ll explore the intimate poetry of Song of Solomon, chapters 1 through 4, soaking in rich imagery about love and longing, before turning to Ephesians chapter 6 for Paul’s famous exhortation to put on the “armor of God.” As we read, Hunter encourages us to recognize the deep love and grace God pours out on us, reminding us that true strength comes from being loved by God. The episode closes with a time of reflective prayer, asking for God’s guidance, protection, and mercy as we walk into a new day, and finishes with the comfort that God is always with us—our Emmanuel. Whether you’re starting your day or looking for a moment of peace, this episode is an invitation to be strengthened, encouraged, and reminded that you are deeply loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Be strong. Be loved. The strength that you need to resist the enemy's fiery attacks comes from God. It’s not from us, after all. The armor that He bequeaths to us—the helmet, the shield, the shoes, the sword, the breastplate—all of it is a gift from a loving God. So put on that loving armor and be strong. Paul tells us to be strong, but listen carefully to his final words: be loved. Peace be with you, dear brothers and sisters, and may God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ give you love with faithfulness. May God’s grace be eternally upon all who love our Lord Jesus Christ. So how are we to be strong? We do that by being loved. By putting on the loving armor of our Lord, and resting in the eternal grace and embrace that is ours in Christ. God’s grace has been eternally poured out on us. Yes, put on the helmet of salvation, the breastplate of God’s righteousness, the shoes of the gospel, the shield of faith, and the sword of the Spirit. These are loving gifts from a loving God, meant to guard us and equip us for whatever battles may come. You can be strong because you have been loved. Know this well, and let its truth sink deep into your heart so that you can draw strength from Him. That’s a prayer I have for my own soul, for my family—my wife, my daughters, my son. And that’s a prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Almighty and ever loving God, you have brought us to the light of a new morning. Cleanse the thoughts of our hearts by the inspiration of your Holy Spirit, that we may walk this day in peace. Guard our steps from temptation, shield us from the weight of fear and shame, and lead us deeper into the joy of Your presence through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. O Christ, light of the nations, shine in every place where shadows dwell. Call the scattered home, heal the wounds of division and gather all people into the communion of your grace. May the knowledge of the Lord cover the earth as the waters cover the sea. Amen. And our Lord. Make my hands ready for mercy. Make my eyes quick to see the hurting, my ears open to the cry of the lonely, and my feet swift to bring good news. Let me seek to bless, not to be noticed, to serve, not to be praised, to forgive, not to hold back. For in your way is life, in your mercy is healing. And in your love is the peace this world cannot give. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

    June 9th, 25: One Year Bible –– Living as Children of Light: Finding Sweetness in Every New Day (Daily Bible Reading)

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible, where we journey together through the pages of scripture. On this June 9th episode, Host Hunter guides us through readings from Ecclesiastes 10–12, Psalm 94, and Ephesians 5. As we reflect on the wisdom of Ecclesiastes, the cries for justice in the Psalms, and Paul’s inspiring call to live as children of light, Hunter invites us to taste the “sweetness of a new day” found in Christ. Along the way, he reminds us of the transforming power of God’s love, the importance of living in light and hope, and the call to love one another deeply—laying down our lives just as Christ did for us. We’ll close with a time of prayer, grounding our day in the peace, mercy, and abundance of God. So gather around and let the Word warm your heart—because here, you are always loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Children of light, that is what you are. The light is sweet. How pleasant to see a new day dawning. Ecclesiastes 11:7. And Paul wants us to know the sweet light of a new day that is found in Christ. His favor and kindness is there for us on this new day. And how sweet that is. A new day of hope, a new day of life. For once you were full of darkness, but now you have the light of the Lord. So live as people of the light. From our reading in Ephesians, if you want to taste the sweetness of this light, it's going to take careful determination. Verse 10 says, Carefully determine what pleases the Lord. We must be careful to put away the darkness of our past regrets, shame, resentments, and determine to apply the Gospel light to our heart each day. That light comes from the Lord. So let us come to Jesus each day determining to participate and join in the life that is now ours in him. Through Christ we are able to find strength to vanquish the lies that are told about God, that He is distant and separate from us. No, the light of Christ reveals His presence and his nearness. The light of Christ reveals his embrace. In the light of his loving embrace, we are able to honor and prefer one another. We are able to submit to one another. We are able to lay down our lives for one another. When we do that, it will indeed be a sweet and hopeful day. The wise man of Ecclesiastes said, light is sweet. How pleasant to see a new day dawning. So taste the sweetness of the life we have in Christ. Determine to love others. Let the love of Christ vanquish the dark lies of separation and distance. And determine to love through the power of Christ. Laying down your life in order to Experience his life. Now, that's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that's a prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Loving God, you have knit us together in the body of Christ from every nation and tongue. Make us a vessel of your peace today. Make us a vessel of your peace today. Where hatred stirs, let us bear your love. Where wounds run deep, let us be agents of pardon. Where fear grips hearts, may we speak faith. Where sorrow hangs heavy, may we carry joy. Teach us to listen more than we speak. To understand before we are understood. To love. For in surrender we find abundance. In mercy, we discover grace. And in dying, we rise into your life. In the name of Jesus. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray. Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today’s episode, guest host Heather invites us to join her on June 8th for Day 159 of our journey through the Scriptures. Together, we reflect on the wisdom found in Ecclesiastes chapters 7 through 9 and Ephesians chapter 4. Heather thoughtfully reads through these passages, exploring profound truths about the fleeting nature of life, the value of wisdom, and our calling to unity and love as followers of Christ. She reminds us that while effort is required in our walk with God, it is always a response to His love, not something we earn. The episode concludes with heartfelt prayers, encouraging us to rely on God’s strength, seek His peace, and step forward renewed in our identity as His beloved children. Join listeners around the world as we gather to warm our hearts around the Scriptures and discover fresh hope for the future. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Work at it. God may be opposed to trying to earn something, but he's not opposed to our effort. So let's work at it. We have to work at it because effort is what it's going to take, and our work is an active participation with God. It's a testimony of our inclusion into the life and love of God. It's not done in exchange for his favor or love. No, he has already included us and loved us. Our work is a response to what we have become, what he has made us—his children. So we work. We participate, we respond. We share in the ministry of Christ in this world now. And we all get to do this. Not just the hired folks, the pastors and teachers, the people who speak for a living. No, we are all a part of God's kingdom work. In Ephesians 4:3, we're told that we are to make every effort to keep ourselves unified in the Spirit. Make the effort by throwing off those old attitudes and behaviors that lead to hopelessness. Instead, work at stepping into and training your heart in new attitudes that lead to life and hope and a future. Ephesians 4:4 says that you have been called to one glorious hope for the future. We are to make every effort to renew our mind and thoughts and attitudes. We do that by hearing and applying the gospel to our daily lives. We have to work at that. We have to receive the good news of Christ's sufficiency. We have to remind our hearts daily that his grace is sufficient for all that we face. We need to rest in his love and care for us every day. That is a worthy effort that God honors. Jesus says, for everyone who asks, receives; everyone who seeks, finds; and to everyone who knocks, the door will be opened. That will require effort, but the strength will be his. The spirit of Christ living in and through us will be the strength that enables us to work at it. The good news of Christ will be the thing that renews our heart, mind, and attitude. Then we can begin to experience that glorious hope for the future that we have in him. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord God Almighty and everlasting Father, you have brought us in safety to this new day. Preserve us with your mighty power that we might not fall into sin or be overcome by adversity. And in all we do, direct us to the fulfilling of your purpose. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. O God, you have made of one blood all the peoples of the earth and sent your blessed Son to preach peace to those who are far and those who are near. Grant that people everywhere may seek after you and find you, bring the nations into your fold. Pour out your spirit on all flesh and hasten the coming of your kingdom through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. And now, Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Lord, grant that I might not seek to be consoled as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved as to love. For it is in the giving that we receive, in the pardoning that we are pardoned. It is in the dying that we are born unto eternal life. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

One Year Bible Podcast: Join Hunter and Heather Barnes on 'The Daily Radio Bible' for a daily 20-minute spiritual journey. Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today’s episode, we journey together through Ecclesiastes 4–6, Psalm 18, and Ephesians 3, reflecting on the deep questions of life, contentment, and the power of God’s love. Host Hunter guides us through ancient wisdom and heartfelt prayers, reminding us that though life can sometimes feel meaningless or overwhelming, we are rooted and strengthened in the immeasurable love of Christ. As we explore the scriptures, we’re invited to let our hearts be encouraged, our roots sink deep into God’s love, and our imaginations stirred by the beauty of the gospel. Whether you’re facing joys or challenges, take a moment with us today to discover the sustaining hope and strength that comes from knowing you are truly loved. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Roots. If you want to grow, you have to have roots. Paul prays that you and I will sink our roots deep down into God's love. His love is where life and growth begin and where it all continues from. His love is where we grow strong. Ephesians 3:16-17 says, “I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources, he will empower you with inner strength through his Spirit. Then Christ will make his home in your hearts. As you trust him, your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong.” Paul doesn’t want us to merely know about this love; he wants us to go on a journey into it, to discover just how long, how wide, how high, and how deep his love really is. This love knows no limits. It can never be fully sounded. We are forever drawn into its embrace. How are your roots today? If you want to grow and have life and strength, you have to sink your roots into his love. Maybe today it’s something as simple as hearing the words, “you are loved.” Is there something that keeps you from really receiving that? Is there shame or a wound? Something that stands between you and those words? Whatever comes and mutes those words and tells you they are not for you, I encourage you today to look into the face of Jesus and receive his love without interference. Today you are loved. So let your roots sink deep into Christ and find strength in him. Today there is nothing that can separate you from the love of Christ. You have been drawn into and embraced by him. You can be strong. Let the beauty of the gospel of Christ draw you further up, farther in, and find your strength in him. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That’s the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that’s the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Gracious and everlasting God, you have brought us through the shadow of night into the promise of a new day. You go before us with your mercy, sustain us by your grace and keep us from wandering paths of fear or pride. Let every word we speak and every step we take be formed by the goodness of Christ. O Lord, gather your people far and near. May every tribe and tongue come to know your peace. Let justice roll like a river and healing flow where there has been division. Pour out your spirit upon all flesh and bring us closer to the day when your kingdom comes in fullness through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today’s episode, your host Hunter invites you to join him on June 6th as we continue our journey through Scripture. On this 158th day of Bible reading, we explore the deep questions of meaning and purpose found in Ecclesiastes chapters 1-3, take comfort and inspiration from Psalm 45, and close our reading with the hope-filled promises of Ephesians chapter 2. Hunter reflects on the age-old struggle between despair and hope: while Ecclesiastes wrestles with life’s apparent meaninglessness, Ephesians reminds us of the new life and abiding peace we have in Christ. Through thoughtful Scripture reading and heartfelt prayer, today’s episode encourages us to see beyond life’s challenges, embrace the joy that God offers, and remember that in Christ, we are never alone. So grab your Bible, take a deep breath, and let’s spend some time together in God’s word. TODAY'S DEVOTION: Meaningless, meaningless, cries the preacher. All is meaningless, he cries. Try as he might, he cannot make sense of his broken life. Nothing in the end seems to be right. All seems to be wrong. He cannot find a way to reconcile life's disparities. He has eternity in his heart. And yet the present is fraught with fractures. Nothing makes sense. But Paul in Ephesians cries out something different. You lived in this world without God and without hope. But now, he says, you have been united with Christ Jesus. Once you were far away from God, but now you have been brought near to him through the blood of Christ. Christ himself has brought us peace through the cross. The good news has come to us. In Christ, no longer is life meaningless and hopeless. No, now we have life in him. When we are tempted to see the world through the lens of despair and hopelessness, we can look to the life of Jesus. We can look to his sacrifice. We can look to the love that has been poured out in order that we might be united with him. In our hopelessness and despair, he has offered us his love. His love led him to a cross so he could free us from that despair and offer us life here, life now with eternal purposes and present joy. The preacher says, "Everything is meaningless, completely meaningless." But Paul says he gave us life when he raised Christ from the dead. There is someone far greater than Solomon who is able to mend the human soul and make us new. He is even now making all things new. So let us step into the eternal purposes that he has for us so that we can begin to live, abide and rest and play and have joy and strength in him. That's the prayer that I have for my own soul. That's the prayer that I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that's the prayer that I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Jesus is my shepherd. You have called me by my name into the life of the beloved. Here in the stillness, I remember that I am not alone. I belong to you and to the great communion of saints and sinners held together in your love. Remind me, Lord, that every breath is grace. Every encounter is a chance to give what I have received—mercy without measure. When I forget who I am, when I lose my way, lead me again to still waters. Restore my soul, renew my hope. Reroute me in the joy of simply being yours. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen.

Engage with scripture readings, heartfelt devotionals, and collective prayers that draw you into the heart of God's love. Embark on this year-long voyage through the Bible, and let each day's passage uplift and inspire you. TODAY'S EPISODE: Welcome to the Daily Radio Bible! In today’s episode, your host Hunter guides us through a rich tapestry of scripture, reflecting on Proverbs 30 and 31, Psalm 33, and Ephesians 1. We journey through age-old wisdom, poetic praise, and the powerful reminder from Paul that God fills the empty spaces in our lives, making all things new in Christ. Hunter offers heartfelt prayers, encouragement, and invites us to practice gratitude and reflect on who we truly are in Christ. Plus, don’t miss a quick announcement about a new podcast companion episode, where Hunter unpacks the beautiful theological concept of “recapitulation” and its connection to today’s readings. Settle in, open your heart, and join us as we encounter the words of life together. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He fills all things. I need to be filled. There are gaping holes in my life. There are missing pieces. Much has been broken. Much is missing. I need to be filled. I see that now more than ever. And Paul knows what it’s like—to know that he needs to be filled. Paul sees that God, in his wisdom and mercy, has come to fill humanity. He’s come for humanity, his children, that we might be filled and restored in him. Paul repeatedly says in this one chapter that God is going to fill all things with himself. And elsewhere in the book of Corinthians, Paul says, "God will be all and in all." Christ has come and united himself to us. He has included us in the life that he shares with the Father, in the Spirit. We have been made full and complete in him. Now, ours is to wake up to who we are—to begin to live in the truth of our being. He is making all things new: all those empty places, unfinished places in our lives. Let us be reminded together that Christ has come to fill all things with himself and to make all things new. And that includes you. When he says all things, it means all. And let us receive this promise today of Christ’s filling. That’s the prayer I have for my own soul. That’s the prayer I have for my family, for my wife and my daughters and my son. And that’s the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Merciful God, you have brought us through the night. Into this new day, we offer you our lives again. Our hopes, our fears, our work, our rest. Keep us faithful in the little things and mindful of your presence in every moment. Let us not be led by anxiety or pride, but by your peace that passes all understanding through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen. Lord Jesus, you stretched wide your arms on the cross to draw all people to yourself, draw the hurting, the hungry, the weary. Break down every wall of hostility and build us into one family by your spirit. Amen. And now, Lord, teach me to walk not with fear, but with faith. Where there is noise, let me be still. Where there is boasting, let me be quiet. Where there is suffering, let me kneel. Let me not crave recognition, but righteousness, not applause, but communion. For in you I have life, and in dying with you, I rise. Amen. And now, as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen. Loving God, we give you thanks for restoring us in your image. And nourishing us with spiritual food, now send us forth as forgiven people, healed and renewed, that we may proclaim your love to the world, and continue in the risen life of Christ. Amen.

    Theological Reflections with Hunter –– Today's Theological Idea, "Recapitulation."
    Jun 5 2025

    Theological Reflection – Recapitulation
    What if everything broken was being gathered back together—right now? In this special episode, we reflect on the beautiful mystery of Recapitulation, the ancient Christian hope that in Jesus, God is rewriting the human story, not from the outside, but from within. Through His life, death, and resurrection, Christ gathers up the pieces of our lives, our world, and our history, making all things new. It’s not just about going back—it’s about moving forward in Him. Come and rest in this mystery with us.

On this June 4th, we're marking day 156 of our journey through the Bible together. In today’s episode, Hunter invites us to open our hearts as we read from Proverbs 28 and 29, Psalm 60, and Romans 16. More than just words on a page, we're drawn to encounter the living Word—Jesus, the one who offers us rest, hope, and strength even in our weakness. Hunter shares encouragement from scripture, reminding us that God is able to make us strong, especially when we feel our weakest. He reflects on Paul's message that God's power is made perfect in our weakness—a truth that meets us in whatever we're facing today. After the scripture readings, we'll spend time in prayer, resting in God's presence, and Hunter will also share a heartfelt thanks to the community of listeners who make this podcast possible. Whether you’re seeking peace, a fresh perspective, or just a reminder that you are not alone, today’s episode is here to help you start your day centered in God’s love and strength. So grab your Bible and join Hunter as we read, reflect, and pray together. TODAY'S DEVOTION: He is our strength—even in weakness. Do you need some good news today? Here it is: you can be strong. God’s people are being offered strength through Christ today. As Paul writes at the end of Romans 16, “Now, all glory to God who is able to make you strong.” This is the message held out to the church, to Jew and Gentile alike: there is strength for us, right here, right now, for whatever we are called to walk through. This strength isn’t mustered up, it isn’t conjured by willpower or striving. In fact, it often arrives most clearly when we feel weakest, when we have come to the end of our own resources. Paul knew this well. In his own life, as he tells us in Second Corinthians, he pleaded with God to remove the hardship he called his “thorn in the flesh.” But God responded, “My grace is sufficient for you. My power is made perfect in weakness.” So Paul learned to boast all the more in his weakness, for it was there that God’s strength was most visible. When we feel inadequate or overwhelmed, this is not the moment to despair. It’s the moment to draw near and rest in the strength of Christ with us and in us. The invitation is to abide, not strive; to trust, not panic; to walk moment by moment with the One who strengthens our hearts. His power is not constrained by our conditions. In our frailty, his sufficiency shines even brighter. Whatever you are facing today, whatever you feel you can’t endure on your own, Christ stands ready to strengthen you. You are not abandoned. God is present in your struggle. He wants to meet you there, in the midst of your weakness, and reveal his power, his sufficiency, his sustaining love. All he asks is that we abide and trust him enough to take the next step. That is the prayer I have for my own soul. That is the prayer I have for my family, for my wife, my daughters, my son. And that is the prayer I have for you. May it be so. TODAY'S PRAYERS: Lord of life, you have awakened me again to the gift of this day. You go before me, walk beside me, and dwell within me. Let me walk slowly in your presence. May I resist the hurried spirit of this world and instead breathe deep of your peace. Open my eyes to beauty, my ears to your voice, and my heart to the quiet work of grace. Help me not to strive, but to abide, not to achieve, but to receive. Today, let my words carry your kindness. My actions reflect your mercy. My thoughts be anchored in your truth, that I am yours, and you are with me. Amen. And now as our Lord has taught us, we are bold to pray: Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever and ever. Amen. OUR WEBSITE: www.dailyradiobible.com We are reading through the New Living Translation.
