Bedtime Bible Stories for Adults – Details, episodes & analysis

**Formerly known as The Twelve**

I'm not sure why but I felt really encouraged to read the beginning of Acts about the disciples being sent out into the world to heal and preach about Jesus. Maybe it's because I've gotten so into The Chosen, which helped bring all of them to life. It's interesting that they didn't just stick with eleven apostles. Numbers mean something to God and twelve is seen quite a bit throughout the Bible.

I speak some Spanish and years ago, when my husband and I were traveling in Colombia, we took an Uber to the airport. Our Uber driver turned out to be a Christian who was no longer attending church, but he expressed that he felt bad about having drifted away from God. We had just heard an amazing sermon on following God and being obedient, even if you don't necessarily have the WILL to do it. We may not always have the will, but what we do have is a CHOICE. We can choose to do the right thing, and then the will will follow. I explained this concept to him and the Spanish was fluently flowing out of me. I know it was God giving me that ability. It was such an unreal feeling. The driver got very emotional while we were speaking, and we prayed with him once we arrived to the airport. I praise God for that divine appointment and the gift He gave me in the moment to help that man.

We are reading Acts 1 through 4, stopping at verse 31.

The world's first murder. Is anyone else shocked at how soon this happened? I certainly am. How much grief Adam and Eve must have felt. Although the Bible doesn't go into detail, things go downhill after that, and the world becomes so wicked that God regrets having made mankind.This is an account of the events following "In the Beginning" and preceding "Noah and the Ark." We are reading Genesis 4, 5, and 6:1-7.

In recognition of the New Year, I wanted to tell a story about new beginnings. This is the story of one of the most powerful transformations in the Bible. Saul of Tarsus was born somewhere between 5 BC and 5 AD. He walked this earth the same time as Jesus, but never met him in person, and went on to become a well-known Pharisee. He mercilessly persecuted followers of Jesus, until a dramatic confrontation with God changed his life forever.We are reading Acts 8 and 9.

The long-awaited part 2 is finally here! Friends, my health kept me from being able to finish this episode earlier. Ironic, right? But God is good, and it's here. I tried to make the parts equal in length, but as you can see, I was not successful. Some of the stories in part 2 are longer. And the last story finishes it off with a bang! Jesus knows how to wow us and bring glory to God!We are reading several passages from the Gospels.

All of the Bible stories are excellent, but I felt like we needed some JESUS in our lives. So many of us are suffering from health issues, and it can be very discouraging and lonely. Let's get some encouragement and fill our minds with some of Jesus' miraculous healings. One of my favorite healing miracles is in this episode, and I'm so excited for you to hear it! I've been focusing on it throughout my own healing journey. I'll tell you which one it is in the intro to part two.We are reading different parts of Luke and John.

The strongest human in the Bible... physically. He didn't always have the best self-control, but God had an important plan for him from the very beginning. I find myself asking a lot of questions about this story. Let's all pray for discernment when hearing or reading it.We are reading Judges 13 through 16.

I heard a rumor that the book of Philippians was one of the happiest books in the Bible... in spite of it being written from prison! When I heard that, I knew I had to record it next. It is full of amazing promises from God, and good reminders from Paul to forget our negative pasts and to look forward to the future. I was really blessed by this episode and hope you will be, too.We are reading the entire book of Philippians.

The book of Daniel is full of prophecy and begins with the story of Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednago. Is that how you learned their names, too? It's funny that we call Daniel by his original name, and we learn the Babylonian names for his friends. When I read this story, it made me really think about my faith. There will be times we will be questioned or even threatened. Will I be strong enough to stand up for God? I pray that God will give me that strength. It amazes me the faith that those three men had. Let that be our inspiration! I hope you enjoy the first story about Daniel. We are reading Daniel 1 through 3.
