Leviticus 8 – 11 :: Priestly Duties & God's Presence in the Fire
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
Welcome back to the book of Leviticus, my OOBTers! Today, we're diving into the ordination of the priests and how Jesus is Our Great High Priest. How He is right beside us. Never far off. Never distant as the priests of the Old Testament were from the Israelites. I just love that, don’t you? So beautiful. Together we'll see how Moses follows God's instructions for the ordination of Aaron and his sons, preparing them for service. In Leviticus 9 we recognize all the offerings we’ve studied already, but this time offered for the priests themselves. I can’t help but notice the order...

Leviticus 5-7 :: The Holiness & Presence of Our God + Those Offerings
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
Welcome back to the Open Our Bibles Together podcast! As promised at the end of our last episode, back to school equals back to the podcast after a much-needed summer break. It is honestly mind-blowing to consider all of the changes happening in our home and lives this Fall which makes me SUPER GRATEFUL I had the opportunity to slow down and soak in all of the times our F7 family spent together in Summer 2024. It truly was quite a blessing, BUT NOW, I’m back and VERY ready to dive into our studies in the book of Leviticus together. Sooooo, as a bit of a refresher, please recall...

Leviticus Intro + 1-4 :: Drawing Near to Our Holy God
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
Hello and welcome back to another episode release of our podcast my friends!!! I’m so glad you are here as we begin our studies in the book of Leviticus together. And yes… I did say LEVITICUS. LOL! You may have heard me say in previous episodes of OOBT that the book of Leviticus is often referred to as the place where many one-year Bible reading plans go to die…. Oh goodness. But not for us am I right my OOBTers?! We got this… one chapter, one page at a time. ANNNDDD as I mentioned to you all when we recently finished the book of Exodus… I discovered SO MANY new...

Throwback Episode :: How I Study the Bible
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
Welcome to Summer 2024 my friends! Today we are going to go all the way back to the beginning of OOBT – dusting off EPISODE TWO and once again taking a listen to some of my fav tips and tricks about How I Study the Bible… as a refresher for many of us and maybe even a first-time listen for all of our new friends who have joined us along the way! What a trip down memory lane to listen to this one from the very early days of the Open Our Bibles Together podcast. Oh my. LOL! Honestly, though, I thought now was the PERFECT time to hear a refresher of all those tips on how to lean...

Throwback Episode :: BONUS + PREQUEL to Exodus
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
As I promised at the end of our last episode of OOBT, we’re going to go back and take a re-listen to our bonus and prequel episode to Exodus from last summer (yep... a whole year ago!) because I really do believe that all I included in that one is going to mean so much more to us now that we've finished our studies in the book of Exodus. I know it sure did land differently for me when I went back to listen so I’m hoping it does the same for you, my friends. We truly have learned so much in the last year my OOBTers… in those thin crinkly pages of Exodus. I hope you discover some...

Exodus 37-40 :: God Dwells With the Israelites and With Us
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
:::: THAT’S A WRAP MY OOBTers!! :::: WELL…. WITH THE BOOK OF EXODUS ANYWAY! 🎉🎉🎉 Three books down (Genesis, Job, and now Exodus) with only 63 more to go! We got this right?! LOL! So we FINISH the book of Exodus today AND up next we’ll BEGIN Leviticus. (More on that to come… I promise!) In the meantime, though, I think we could easily sum up nearly all that is happening in today’s episode with these words on repeat in our readings…. “Just as the LORD had commanded Moses.” That particular phrase is repeated nearly 10 times in Exodus...

Exodus 34-36 :: The Glory & Presence of God
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
“Show me Your glory.” These words not only ended our last episode of OOBT but are also the ones we pick back up with today as well. Not only does Moses have the opportunity to see God’s glory, but he also comes back down from Mt. Sinai with a radiant face from spending time in God’s presence. Wow! Just wow. We also hear the words God used to describe Himself. Gracious. Merciful. Slow to Anger. Faithful. Forgiving. Gosh, OOBTers… How can we not recognize all of these characteristics over and over again in His care for His people? In His continued presence...

Easter + Jesus On The Road To Emmaus
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
And then what? Have you ever taken a moment in your Easter celebrations to consider the answer to this question… to look to see what happens next in Scripture AFTER we read that the tomb was empty? When we do, what we find, is another 40 days of Jesus here on Earth. Annnndddd we also find a whole lot of post-Resurrection moments that could only be described as this…. Mundane. Now that’s definitely not a word any of us would have EVER thought could be associated with Easter, right?! BUT, in today’s episode, we’ll learn how the seemingly mundane...

Exodus 28-30 :: The Priests + Our Great High Priest Jesus
Open Our Bibles Together with MFahring
In today’s chapters in Exodus, we take a deep dive into God’s directions to Moses about the priestly garments and the consecration of the priests. However, please know this … all of this is merely meant to point us to Jesus who is described in the New Testament as our Great High Priest. He is the fulfillment of all the things that we see happening here in Exodus. PLUS, we learn quite a bit more about God and His desire to dwell with us as we finish out the remainder of the descriptions of the items to be placed within the tabernacle. With that thought in mind, please be sure...
