How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

0:17.5

Do you think true crime, TV, or podcasts are a new phenomenon? Well, welcome to Through the Bible. We'll find out where it all began. We're in Genesis 4 and 5.

0:27.0

Chapters filled with conflict and anger that eventually lead to murder. The first murder, in fact, was committed against a brother.

0:33.9

Then one sin led to another, with more murder, vengeance, urban issues,

0:38.7

polygamy that spread like wildfire in the ancient world. Where will it end? Well, we'll find out,

0:45.1

but I'll warn you, it's a bit of a dark study. Thankfully, though, Greg and I have a few minutes

0:50.3

to share some good news first. Sorry, I started laughing too soon, but yeah, it's nice after that

0:56.1

rather dark subject we're going to be talking about to talk about something that is really

1:01.0

uplifting, and that's our home group ministry. Yeah. Yeah, here's a testimony from Tulsi,

1:28.9

understanding of the Bible or in how to guide others. Many times, I read the scriptures but couldn't

1:34.3

connect the teachings in a clear way. Everything changed when I started studying the Bible through

1:40.0

the radio home group. Listening to the program week after week, I realized how powerful it is

1:45.8

when God's word is taught in a planned step-by-step manner. Each session helped me understand

1:51.1

the background of the passage, the meaning of the verses, and more importantly, how to apply

1:56.3

them to my life daily. Over time, my own faith grew stronger. The Bible became not just a book I read,

2:03.2

but a life-giving guide. The teachings helped me gain confidence in answering questions from the

2:08.3

group and guiding them in prayer. I learned how to lead discussions and bring everyone together to
