The hosts begin a new series exploring the feasting themes from Genesis to Revelation. After eating the forbidden fruit, humanity was cast into sin and death. As Scripture unfolds, we discover God’s gracious plan of redemption which culminates in the great feast at the end of the ages. We who were strangers and enemies of God are welcomed to the wedding feast of the Lamb. Join the hosts as they begin this new series on Divine Hospitality. Michael Horton and Kim Riddlebarger will be joined in discussion with special guests Justin Holcomb and Steve Parks.

Feasting with God
Throughout our series on Divine Hospitality, we’ve been exploring the feasting themes throughout Scripture, and on this program the hosts will continue their discussion as they consider how this theme is addressed throughout Luke’s Gospel.

Imaging God in Our Hobbies
If the image of God is who we are, then it makes sense it could be seen in many different facets of our lives. It would show up not only in the way we speak or act towards others with holiness, but even in the very desires that guide how we want to spend our time. We would find glimpses of the imprint of God within our callings and vocations, but we would also find it spring up within our play.
What Is the Purpose of Matthew’s Genealogy?
Matthew’s genealogy, properly understood, gives us good news of a gracious God—one who loves us, pursues us, and works through us even when we are sinful (Rom. 5:8). Matthew’s genealogy ultimately points us to this: God has sent his Son, our only Savior, to give us eternal hope.
