Joseph and the Path to Destiny

Welcome back to OFBS S2, Episode 2! We thank God for consistency! And that is exactly what can be said for this week's main character: Joseph. Joseph was fighting for his life with opps on every side. Despite the chaos, flat out injustice, and despair, Joseph kept his eyes to the sky to his Helper. He lived under the awareness of God inspite of less than favorable circumstances. As our lovely guest Astrid illustrates, that waiting period for Joseph was not wasted. Instead, his character was refined and when he did step into the pathway God had for him, he was not the 17 year old child. He was a man who would direct all glory to God. I leave you with this verse: "But let patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing."

The Extraordinary in the Mundane: Moses and The Burning Bush

Welcome to Season 2 of the Our Favorite Bible Stories Podcast!!! Has it been 7 months? Yes. Does that matter? No, because I come bearing gifts! This season will be featuring guests who will discuss their favorite Bible stories! We are starting this season off with a banger as I sat down with my hilarious and insightful friend, Florence! In this first episode, we discussed Moses and the Burning Bush. But, before we can get to that iconic moment, we have to break down Moses's high moments (Zipporah, duh!) and his low moments (was he at some point a wanted felon? Yes). When it seemed that Moses was getting comfortable in obscurity, God showed up supernaturally using a mundane object; He silenced all of Moses's fears (or his excuses) and pushed him towards his destiny! This story reminds us that God can and will use anyone for His purpose. And, because He's great like that, it works out for our good as well!

Our Favorite Bible Stories: 2025 Recap

Hello and welcome back to Our Favorite Bible Stories! Can you believe this is the last time I am writing this for 2025? Time does not feel real anymore. While I normally talk over a classic Bible story, today, I decided to do a recap of 2025, looking back through the stories I covered and discuss some of the new things that were introduced this year! It was fun going down memory lane and remembering the lessons God showcased through these stories. So, I hope you join me as we remember 2025! I pray blessings for a phenomenal 2026!

Stories from Jesus: Parables for our Modern World

Welcome back to OFBS! In this podcast, we are delving in to some parables from the Lord Himself. One thing about my Jesus, He gonna tell a story with a lesson (AMEN)! From gratitude, to persistence to stewardship, these stories cover the difficult topics that the people during the Bible times were wrestling with. And surprise surprise, we still struggle with these things in our modern world. Thankfully, God is the same yesterday, today, and forever (Hebrews 13:8). A word from the past is still relevant today! So grab your warm drink, cozy up with a blanket, and let's do storytime!

The Absolutely Confusing but Comforting Story of Abraham

Hello and welcome to OFBS Ep 15! When I tell you this episode was so close to not coming out on time, but we serve a God who keeps His word! And that is exactly what we see in the story of Abraham. Abraham had to be the father of faith cause he was living on a prayer: no land, no home, and no child. All he had was a promise from God . Yet, that was all he needed. While Abraham was by no means perfect (especially concerning his sister-wife), God still chose him and used him. This story is poignant reminder that if God said it, He will complete it, and there's nothing you can do to stop it. Amen to that!

Beautiful Serendipity (The Story of Esther)

Hey Y'all! Welcome back to OFBS! Today, we are talking about QUEEN Esther (put some respect on her name). While Esther is one of only two books named after a woman (shoutout Ruth), God's name is no where to be found in this book. But don't get it twisted; His hand is all over this story. Esther reminds us that there are no coincidences with God. He has planned out every path, every trail, and every step (and thats on Ephesians 2:10). May this episode encourage you! Even when it seems like He is not present, He is actually creating a beautiful story.

Gifted Does Not Equal Invincibility (The Cautionary Tale of Sampson)

Welcome to OFBS ep 13! I took an unintended 2 month break, but we're back! Thank God! Today's episode is about the original heavyweight champion, Sampson. God set Sampson apart from the womb to pepper His enemies. Unfortunately, Sampson got a little too comfortable with his strength and forgot Who gave it to him. Spoiler alert, his story does not have the happiest of endings. But, we can learn from his life so we do not make the same mistakes. So tune into this episode: How NOT to Do Life 101!

Defying the Odds, Defining the Culture (The Story of Deborah)

Welcome to OFBS Ep 12! As this episode comes out in March, which is Women's History Month, we are focusing on our good girl Deb Deb (the only female judge of the Israelites!!!) I know we love a Proverbs 31 woman, but Deborah is an iconic role model. She was strong, wise, creative, and confident. She stood on what she said and made sure the people around her stood on it too! This story is just one of the many narratives that center women. Do not let culture fool you; women are not at the bottom of the spiritual hierarchy. They are beloved just as men are. May this story impact the way you see, respect, and cherish all women!

Surrounded but Safe (Elisha and the Aramean Army)

Hi hi! Welcome back to OFBS ep 11; I am so glad that you decided to tune in! In my opinion, this episode is very timely. There is a lot of fear and uncertainty in our world; this story speaks to those emotions and reminds us that God has us. Even when we do not see it or feel it, He's there (and a big hallelujah for that!) In this episode, we talk miracles (Elisha loved him some raw materials. He just threw stuff at a problem and it got better. It's called talent and divine favor), battle strategy (or the lack thereof, looking at you Aram; get a better counselor), and a God who is on fire (literally. He actually has armies of fire). May this episode be the encouragement you need today! As long as God is God, you will be alright.

Ushering in a New Beginning (The Story of Samuel)

Happy New Year loves!! Welcome back to Our Favorite Bible Stories! As it is a new year, it is only fitting that we discuss the new things God did in the Bible! So today, we are talking about Samuel, or more specifically Hannah, his mother. Hannah was facing opposition from all sides: her husband has another wife, she's barren, and oh yeah, that other wife HATES her! Hannah just can't catch a break so she brings her pain to the Lord, and guess who hears her ("spoiler alert" It's God!) And He does not just hear, but He answers her in a special way (a way that changed all of Israel for the better). So, join me as we discuss waiting, opposition, promises, and faithfulness!
