Send us a textEpisode Notes:In this episode of The Bible Project Daily Podcast, we explore one of the most human — and most Christ-like — portraits of the Apostle Paul. Confronted by critics who accused him of weakness, Paul reveals the paradox at the heart of Christian leadership: strength under control, authority wrapped in humility.Through a close reading of 2 Corinthians 10, we learn how Paul models the character of Christ — the One who could overturn tables and still handle the doves with care.Key Themes:· The danger of misplaced criticism and comparison· How to confront opposition with grace and authority· The example of Christ as both meek and mighty· Learning to balance courage with compassionReflection:In your own life, where do you need to develop a stronger backbone — and where do you need to soften your approach with gentleness?Call to Action:Share this episode with someone who leads others — in ministry, in family, or in work — and encourage them to find that holy balance of firmness and kindness.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Send us a textThis is a bonus episode of the latest episode of my monthly church history podcast. To binge the entire series, visit; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comFinding God in the Silence: Gregory PalamasIn this episode of the History of the Christian Church podcast, we turn to the 14th century and meet one of the most influential voices of Eastern Christianity: Gregory Palamas. A monk, mystic, and defender of Hesychasm, Palamas taught that the path to God is found not only in theology and doctrine, but in prayer, silence, and communion with the divine. His distinction between the “essence” and “energies” of God became a cornerstone of Orthodox theology.But how should evangelical Christians view Palamas today? Can we learn from his emphasis on prayer and communion with God while still holding firmly to the sufficiency of Scripture and the finished work of Christ? Join us as we explore his life, his teaching, and why he still matters.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Why not make Studying the Bible part of the rhythm of your daily life. The Bible Project Daily Podcast is a 10 year plan to study through the entire Bible, both Old and New Testament, chapter by chapter, verse by verse. Season one is a short overview of each of the sixty-six books of the Bible. Season two launched our expositional journey through the whole Bible beginning with the book of Genesis.
