Are you born again? I remember when I did not understand what that meant. Sometimes, we can grow up hearing different words that describe what it means to be a Christian and not really know what these words or phrases mean. God’s plan of salvation has unfolded over history. History is His story of His salvation rolled out in a progressive revelation over the course of history. So how does Jesus' death save us, and what are we saved from? Listen to this week's Bible Tribe episode as we discuss what Easter is all about. Happy Easter! Jesus is risen from the dead! #Bibletribe #Biblereadingplan #Bible #Bibleinayear

When we are afflicted, we can lose perspective, and suffering can seem meaningless. But God does not waste our suffering. This past week, in the Bible Tribe, we caught a glimpse of God's purposes in something we would rather do without.

This week's review of Genesis 41–44, Ruth, Isaiah 62–66, Psalms 25–27, Job 21–22, Mark 1–2, and 1 Corinthians 7–8 has a common theme of affliction in the lives of God's people and what God did in and through their suffering. If you are suffering now in some way, please know God's heart toward you is always good. Seek Him in your suffering and watch what God will do. #Bibletribe #Biblereadingplan #Bible #Bibleinayear

How much are our troubles intensified because we just don't understand the heart of God?

God's heart toward us is good. The heart of God is perfect, compassionate, kind, Holy, and good. God is the Lover of our souls, our friend, our Advocate, and our ever-present help in times of need.

God is not in a box of our own making, and His character is not subject to our perception. His heart is that we would have His heart. And He gives us His heart and understanding!

Listen to the Bible Tribe summary for week 8 as we unpack God's heart through the scenarios of God's people.
