    Why Do I Feel So Far From God?

    21/07/2026 | 36 mins.
    Why Do I Feel So Far From God?

    Nine of the Ten Commandments leave evidence. One of them doesn't.

    That one is last for a reason, and it's why Israel backed away from
    the mountain instead of running toward it. They had just heard a law
    that reached somewhere their hands couldn't follow, and they understood
    what that meant about them.

    So they asked for someone to stand in between.

    Most of us read these ten as a scorecard. Keep enough of them, stay on
    the right side of the line, hope the math works out. The text refuses
    that reading before it even starts. Before God says a single "you shall,"
    He says what He has already done. Rescue first. It's always rescue first.

    We're in Exodus 20 today, in the Hebrew, in the covenant world these
    words were actually spoken into. And we're following the question Israel
    asked at that mountain all the way to the answer God sent.

    Too Close To Touch!

    20/07/2026 | 56 mins.
    God doesn't open this chapter with a demand. He opens it with a memory.
    I bore you on eagles' wings, and brought you to Myself. The Hebrew word is nesher, the bird that carries its young on its back rather than in its talons, on the very surface that takes the blow first. And the destination was never the mountain. It was Him.
    Then He says segullah over a nation that three months earlier was making bricks without straw. In the ancient Near East that was the private treasure of a king, his own hoard, not the treasury of the state.
    And only after all of that grace does He say, if you will obey My voice.
    In this episode, Dr. Shawn Greener works through nesher and segullah and goy qadosh, why the order of grace and obedience is the whole argument of the chapter, why the boundaries around the mountain were never the goal, and why the God who carries you on His back and the God who makes the mountain tremble are one God and not two.
    He did not carry you out of Egypt to leave you at the bottom of a mountain.
    New here? This is a daily, chronological, verse-by-verse walk through the whole of Scripture, rooted in the Hebrew language and the Ancient Near Eastern world, centered on Yeshua. Subscribe and turn on the bell so you don't miss tomorrow, when God speaks ten words out of the fire and every person there begs Him to stop.

    Ran Out? He's Already There!

    20/07/2026 | 57 mins.
    The Week Your Own Strength Ran Out
    Song, water, bread, strength, capacity. Five days, five places a freed people hit the end of themselves in the wilderness. And every single time, God was already standing there holding exactly what they'd run out of.

    01:57 An outsider tells Moses the truth

    Who's Holding Up Your Arms?

    16/07/2026 | 47 mins.
    Who's Holding Up Your Arms?

    Two crises in one chapter: a thirsty nation ready to stone Moses, and an enemy army that can only be beaten by arms too tired to stay raised on their own.

    00:00 Your arms are shaking
    00:58 Welcome
    01:55 A rock, a battle, and tired hands
    05:54 What God's positioning reveals
    09:06 Who's actually holding you up
