Reading Through The Bible Together
Reading Through the Bible Together is a daily podcast (Monday-Friday) for weak and weary sinners who want to hear God clearly. Our plan will take you through the entire Bible in one year.
Each episode follows a simple rhythm: read the day’s passage, then recap it to see what God says, what He demands, and what He promises in Jesus Christ. No hype, no fluff, just Scripture, clarity, and comfort, ending every day with the Gospel proclamation that your sins are forgiven through faith in Christ. If you feel behind, distracted, or unsure where to start, you’re welcome here.

In this episode of Reading Through the Bible Together, we cover Genesis 15–20, where God’s promise is tested, human schemes get exposed, and grace proves louder than failure. We walk through Genesis 15, where Abram is justified by faith and declared righteous because he believed God’s promise (Gen. 15:6), and where God cuts the covenant by passing through the pieces Himself, taking the burden of the promise on His own shoulders (Gen. 15:17). Then we watch what happens when waiting gets hard: Sarai and Abram “help God” through Hagar, and the fallout spreads through the family (Gen. 16:1–6), yet God still sees and shows mercy (Gen. 16:11). We see God rename Abram and Sarai, give the covenant sign, and restate the promise of Isaac with the question that hangs over everything: “Is anything impossible for the LORD?” (Gen. 17:5, 15–19; 18:14). We witness the severity of sin and the reality of judgment in Sodom, alongside God’s mercy in rescuing Lot (Gen. 19:15–16, 29). And we end with Abraham failing again, yet God protecting Sarah and guarding the promise anyway (Gen. 20:3–7). This episode is a masterclass in the difference between faith and scheming, and it closes with a Gospel proclamation: righteousness is received, not achieved, and in Jesus Christ your sins are forgiven and you are covered.
