The Daily Grace Podcast

The Bible is actually one story - from Genesis to Revelation, there is a unified narrative that all points to Jesus.  This is easily seen through four plot movements: creation, fall, redemption, restoration/consummation. You may have heard this referred to as the “metanarrative” of Scripture.  Understanding this will change the way you approach the Word of God and enrich your study. You’ll even be engaging in biblical theology, which is a type of theology that focuses on how the revelation of Christ unfolds in time.  And we’ll also talk about how knowing this grand narrative impacts our own stories. This unified narrative can help us in our trials - if we’re going through hardship, we can reflect back on the Fall and how God promised a Redeemer, and He came!  And He promises to come back again and make all things new. What a gift it is that we are a part of His story. May our hearts be in awe of our great God and His story of redemption.   Resources mentioned in this episode: Women of the Word by Jen Wilkin  Jesus Storybook Bible by Sally Lloyd-Jones  Even Better than Eden by Nancy Guthrie  “Gospel Centered Ministry” by Tim Keller  Amen: from Eden to Eternity by The Daily Grace Co.  Bible Gel Highlighters by The Daily Grace Co.  Systematic Theology: And Introduction to Biblical Doctrine by Wayne Grudem    Scripture mentioned in this episode: 2 Corinthians 1:20 Isaiah 53 Genesis 1:1 Genesis 1:27 Genesis 1:31 Genesis 3:15 Genesis 8:21 Psalm 51:5 Romans 3:23 2 Corinthians 5:21 1 Peter 1:18-19 Ephesians 1:7 Revelation 21:2-5 Ruth Matthew 1:5-6 Luke 24:27 1 Peter 1:10-12 Isaiah 53:3    We would love if you took a few minutes to leave us an iTunes review to help spread the word about Daily Grace!  We want to invite more women into our conversations!   Connect with us: podcast@thedailygraceco.com Download The Daily Grace app: on iOS or Android Visit The Daily Grace Co. for beautiful products for the whole family that will equip you on your journey to knowing and loving God more.  Subscribe to The Daily Grace Newsletter and receive free Bible study resources in your inbox.  Like The Daily Grace Co. on Facebook.  Follow on Instagram for the latest updates on the podcast and The Daily Grace Co.  Engage with our Facebook community, “Lamp and Light”.

Kristin shares how The Daily Grace Co. came into existence, and how God’s Word comforted her in a season of loss and grief.  She breaks down what biblical literacy means and shares encouraging words for anyone new on this journey of growing in biblical literacy. She also talks about the beauty of the local church and how it can enrich our personal growth in biblical literacy.     If you hear anything in this conversation that you have questions about, please feel to e-mail us at podcast (at) thedaliygraceco (dot) com.  Also, download the new The Daily Grace Co. app on iOS or Android devices to get a FREE study called “Word of Life” that will help you study the Bible and explain why it matters.     Tell us the story of how the Daily Grace Company came into existence.

Can you share how your study of God’s Word prior to tragedy helped you in the midst of loss and grief?

How can a normal, stay-at-home mama (or even a high school or college student) grow in Biblical literacy? What encouragement would you give to a woman struggling to find the motivation to read God’s Word or to a woman who thinks daily Bible study is for “super Christians” or women in ministry?
