Steve Webb: This is the
Lifespring! One Year Bible
2
00:00:03,724 --> 00:00:07,522
season 12 Rewind, and I'm Steve
Webb, your OG Godcaster and your
3
00:00:07,581 --> 00:00:11,201
host. What's a rewind? Well,
it's a redo, a rerun, an encore,
4
00:00:11,261 --> 00:00:14,881
a rebroadcast. The Lifespring!.
One Year, Bible Rewind exists
5
00:00:14,940 --> 00:00:18,738
because the original show is no
longer in production. and when I
6
00:00:18,798 --> 00:00:22,536
told the Lifespring family that
I was shutting it down after 13
7
00:00:22,596 --> 00:00:26,335
seasons, many of them asked for
something like this show in one
8
00:00:26,394 --> 00:00:30,133
way or another. They wanted to
read through the Bible in a year
9
00:00:30,192 --> 00:00:33,871
with me again. Oh, and I just
mentioned the Lifespring family.
10
00:00:33,931 --> 00:00:37,432
What's that you ask? Well,
that's anyone who listens to the
11
00:00:37,492 --> 00:00:40,934
show once then keeps coming
back. Once you decide to stick
12
00:00:40,993 --> 00:00:44,494
around, I consider you to be
family, you're not a listener,
13
00:00:44,554 --> 00:00:48,114
you are a Lifespring family
member. and as long as I matted,
14
00:00:48,174 --> 00:00:51,794
I'd like to let you know a few
other things about the show so
15
00:00:51,853 --> 00:00:55,354
that you'll know what to expect
in the upcoming season. But
16
00:00:55,414 --> 00:00:59,034
before I do that, let me say
that I'm really glad you're with
17
00:00:59,093 --> 00:01:02,535
me today. and please, if you
like what you hear, tell your
18
00:01:02,595 --> 00:01:05,977
friends. The world is facing
many challenges today. and I
19
00:01:06,037 --> 00:01:09,360
believe that there's no better
way to bring healing than
20
00:01:09,419 --> 00:01:12,683
helping people to know God
better. Romans 1017 says, So
21
00:01:12,743 --> 00:01:16,481
then faith comes by hearing and
hearing by the Word of God, the
22
00:01:16,541 --> 00:01:20,102
Lifespring!, One Year, Bible
rewind is all about sharing the
23
00:01:20,161 --> 00:01:23,306
Word of God. People need a
relationship with Jesus of
24
00:01:23,366 --> 00:01:26,808
Nazareth, the entire Bible
points to that truth. If you're
25
00:01:26,867 --> 00:01:30,546
doubtful, then I encourage you
to stick around with me and see
26
00:01:30,606 --> 00:01:34,166
if you don't come to believe it
as we read together over the
27
00:01:34,226 --> 00:01:37,668
next year. After all, what have
you got to lose? If you do
28
00:01:37,727 --> 00:01:41,407
believe it, then I think your
faith will be strengthened as we
29
00:01:41,466 --> 00:01:44,967
read together. Whichever group
you're in, please share this
30
00:01:45,027 --> 00:01:48,409
podcast with your friends. Now,
if you've been with me on
31
00:01:48,469 --> 00:01:52,148
previous journeys through God's
word, welcome back. If this is
32
00:01:52,207 --> 00:01:55,827
your first time, it's great to
have you join me. So who am I?
33
00:01:55,887 --> 00:01:59,329
My name is Steve Webb as you
know, I'm an award winning Oh
34
00:01:59,388 --> 00:02:03,186
gee Godcaster. Podcasting since
November of 2004. I'm the author
35
00:02:03,246 --> 00:02:06,450
of Web's easy Bible names
Pronunciation Guide. I'm the
36
00:02:06,510 --> 00:02:09,358
grandpa of four beautiful
granddaughters and two
37
00:02:09,418 --> 00:02:12,741
incredible grandsons at last
count. I'm the dad to three
38
00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:16,480
terrific sons, father in law to
three beautiful and incredibly
39
00:02:16,539 --> 00:02:20,218
talented daughters in law, and
I'm the grateful husband of the
40
00:02:20,278 --> 00:02:23,957
lovely lady Leanne. Now I'm not
boasting when I tell you these
41
00:02:24,017 --> 00:02:27,221
things, I share all that with
you as a way to count my
42
00:02:27,281 --> 00:02:31,019
blessings. I don't deserve any
of them. But God in his infinite
43
00:02:31,079 --> 00:02:34,046
love and unfailing Grace
overlooked my Oh, so many
44
00:02:34,105 --> 00:02:37,844
faults. and listen, he wants to
bless you keep listening to the
45
00:02:37,903 --> 00:02:41,701
show. and you'll hear much more
about that. Now, one of the most
46
00:02:41,761 --> 00:02:45,440
common things I've heard over
the more than 50 years that I've
47
00:02:45,500 --> 00:02:49,238
been a follower of Jesus is some
version of I've never read the
48
00:02:49,298 --> 00:02:52,858
Bible all the way through, or I
wish I had the discipline to
49
00:02:52,918 --> 00:02:56,419
read the entire Bible. I've
started it but I've never stuck
50
00:02:56,478 --> 00:02:59,920
with it. Well, if that sounds
like you, then you're in the
51
00:02:59,980 --> 00:03:03,600
right place. This is the podcast
where we'll read through the
52
00:03:03,659 --> 00:03:07,279
entire Bible in one year. So if
you stick with me in a year's
53
00:03:07,339 --> 00:03:10,543
time, you'll have made it all
the way through. On this
54
00:03:10,603 --> 00:03:14,282
episode, I just want to tell you
how the show works. There are
55
00:03:14,341 --> 00:03:18,140
several moving parts and I want
you to know how they work before
56
00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:21,997
we get started. So let's take a
look at how the show's laid out.
57
00:03:22,056 --> 00:03:25,795
The primary reason we're here is
for the reading of God's word,
58
00:03:25,854 --> 00:03:29,475
my approach to the reading will
probably be new to you if you
59
00:03:29,534 --> 00:03:33,035
weren't here last season. As you
may know, the Bible can be
60
00:03:33,095 --> 00:03:36,596
divided into sections. and the
way we divided here and will
61
00:03:36,655 --> 00:03:40,335
thus read it is this on Sundays
will read from the Epistles on
62
00:03:40,394 --> 00:03:43,777
Mondays will read from the law.
Tuesdays will be history.
63
00:03:43,836 --> 00:03:46,803
Wednesday will be Psalms,
Thursday, poetry, Friday
64
00:03:46,863 --> 00:03:50,186
prophecy Saturday gospels, I
like this schedule, because
65
00:03:50,245 -->
Load full transcript
00:03:53,450
every week we'll have an
opportunity to hear from each
66
00:03:53,509 --> 00:03:57,011
section of the Bible without
getting bogged down in some of
67
00:03:57,070 --> 00:04:00,512
the shall we say, drier parts.
When you read, say from the
68
00:04:00,572 --> 00:04:04,251
front of the Bible to the back,
that is Genesis to Revelation.
69
00:04:04,310 --> 00:04:07,990
It's an awful long time before
you get into the New Testament.
70
00:04:08,049 --> 00:04:11,610
As a Christian, I love reading
the New Testament and I don't
71
00:04:11,669 --> 00:04:15,408
want to wait until in nine or 10
months into my reading to read
72
00:04:15,467 --> 00:04:19,325
about Jesus. So I hope you enjoy
this schedule as much as I do. I
73
00:04:19,384 --> 00:04:22,055
found this Bible reading
schedule a few years
74
00:04:22,114 --> 00:04:25,378
back@bible.reading.com and
Michael Kohli, who owns that
75
00:04:25,437 --> 00:04:28,761
website graciously gave his
permission for me to use the
76
00:04:28,820 --> 00:04:32,321
schedule on the show. Now on
every episode after I read the
77
00:04:32,381 --> 00:04:36,060
Bible, I'll share some thoughts
with you about what we've read
78
00:04:36,119 --> 00:04:39,739
that day. Usually, it's just a
few minutes, nothing extremely
79
00:04:39,799 --> 00:04:43,063
deep or long winded, but
hopefully my remarks will make
80
00:04:43,122 --> 00:04:46,802
you think a little deeper about
the day's reading. I also want
81
00:04:46,861 --> 00:04:50,659
to mention that this is a value
for value podcast. There will be
82
00:04:50,718 --> 00:04:54,338
no outside advertisers not now
not in the future. The show is
83
00:04:54,398 --> 00:04:57,959
supported by the Lifespring
family. and if at some point you
84
00:04:58,018 --> 00:05:01,816
find that the show adds to your
life, if you find that it brings
85
00:05:01,875 --> 00:05:05,673
some kind of value to your life,
I ask that you can convert that
86
00:05:05,733 --> 00:05:09,234
value to a number. and I can't
tell you what that number is
87
00:05:09,293 --> 00:05:12,973
only you can do that convert the
value to a number and support
88
00:05:13,032 --> 00:05:16,593
the show. That's the only way
this show can continue. If you
89
00:05:16,652 --> 00:05:20,450
listen every day in each episode
averages about 25 minutes long.
90
00:05:20,510 --> 00:05:24,308
Well, that's nearly three hours
a week of content, you and I are
91
00:05:24,367 --> 00:05:27,987
going to be spending some time
together, I'll do my very best
92
00:05:28,047 --> 00:05:31,548
to make that time valuable. and
if I'm able to do that, I'm
93
00:05:31,607 --> 00:05:35,168
asking you to support the show
financially, you can find out
94
00:05:35,227 --> 00:05:38,551
more at Lifespringmedia.com
slash support. and if you're
95
00:05:38,610 --> 00:05:42,052
using one of the latest and
greatest podcast apps, you can
96
00:05:42,111 --> 00:05:45,732
stream Satoshis as you listen
and boosts some extra SATs when
97
00:05:45,791 --> 00:05:48,877
you hear something you
particularly like. It's all a
98
00:05:48,936 --> 00:05:52,378
part of podcasting 2.0 So my
suggestion is get rid of your
99
00:05:52,438 --> 00:05:56,117
old legacy app and find a new
and modern and shiny podcast app
100
00:05:56,176 --> 00:05:59,737
at podcast apps.com. But the
main thing I want you to really
101
00:05:59,796 --> 00:06:03,179
clued in on here is that the
show cannot continue without
102
00:06:03,238 --> 00:06:06,206
your financial support
Lifespringmedia.com SAS. In
103
00:06:06,265 --> 00:06:09,766
addition to the Bible reading
and commentary, there's an on
104
00:06:09,826 --> 00:06:13,387
this date in church history
segment on the show. You see the
105
00:06:13,446 --> 00:06:17,066
church has been around now for
well over 2000 years, and many
106
00:06:17,125 --> 00:06:20,686
of us don't know very much at
all about what happened in the
107
00:06:20,745 --> 00:06:24,187
church after the time of the
apostles. I'd like to help us
108
00:06:24,247 --> 00:06:27,629
learn a little about that
history. The segment's won't be
109
00:06:27,689 --> 00:06:31,249
long, but I think it'll be fun
and interesting. So there you
110
00:06:31,309 --> 00:06:34,810
have it. That's the basics of
the show. If you want to know
