Is how you view the covenant family today different from what you previously believed? Describe some different examples of imaging God and anti-imaging God (or taking on the image of the serpent). What does it look like for you to rightly image God today in the specific circumstances in which God has placed you? How does knowing Adam, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Jesus Christ himself are your covenant family affect how you view yourself? What words might you be listening to rather than God’s Word causing you to improperly bear God’s image? Evaluate what you spend your time on.

Biblical Theology, Episode 02 Today, Hunter talks with Courtney Doctor about the big story of the Bible—the way God reveals his plan to redeem all things from the beginning of Scripture to the end.

On today's show, we have an Advent devotional by our host, Hunter Beless.

Today we get to hear from Bobby Jamieson about the topic of futility in a fallen world. What ultimately matters in this life? What will truly satisfy us? What is the point of all this?

The Lord is at work in discipleship relationships. In this episode, Hunter and Courtney Doctor close out their conversations about discipleship—they encourage us to know what is good, to teach what is good, and to watch the Lord transform us through these relationships. This episode will encourage you to persevere in discipleship and if you aren’t discipling yet, to start simply and simply start. FULL SHOW NOTES DISCUSSION QUESTIONS What is one thing you believe has preventing you from engaging in discipleship either now or in the past? Are there any specific women (older or younger) who come to mind who would be a good fit for you to ask about a discipleship relationship? What is one way you could become more involved in your local church, specifically to be around older-than-you and younger-than-you women? Make a list of questions that have served you well over the years. Try to keep those in mind to press deeper into conversations with other women. “Tell me more” is a great example. What’s one way you can feast more on God’s Word today in order to feed another woman at a later time? What might you do or implement based on what you learned in this week’s episode?
