Verse-By-Verse Ministry With Heather Darnall
This podcast is a way for people to dive deep into the Christian Bible with me as I read scripture verse-by-verse from various sections and break them down for a better understanding of the context. But moreover, to have a better relationship with Jesus. Additionally, I believe this podcast is a good starting point for anyone new to the Holy Bible, but is still good for anyone who is already well-versed.
Now, please take note that I'm not a scholar. I didn't go to seminary school, I don't have any sort of qualifications that would highlight myself as some kind of guru; I'm simply a seeker for the truth of God. He gives me what I need to make this podcast according to His liking since it's technically His podcast. Therefore, I'm just managing it to the best of my human ability.
But the main reason I started this podcast, is because first off, no one read the Bible to me growing up. Secondly, so often verses are taken out of context and rearranged for our self-will, or even thought as not applicable to us given the length of time that has passed when it was written. And when we do, or think like that by not seeking the full council of God, we're only going to feel lonely, misguided, even deceived.
Thus is why I wanted to take the advice of the apostle Paul when he wrote his letter to Timothy (2 Timothy 2:15) and told him, "do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth." Pay attention to that key word there, "rightly." So that being said, hopefully you'll find this podcast helpful and insightful. Moreover, that you're continuously rooted in your faith while marching forward in life having more confidence in the Bible and what it's really saying to us as well as how we can make it applicable in our day-to-day lives.

Don't Get Left Behind
We are living in a time where the majority of people, including (secular) "Christians," have become a little too comfortable, not realizing that there's still events to take place that were prophesied in the Bible. In this message, I'm going to dive deep into the topic concerning one of those events, an event that the church has long been waiting for, which is the rapture that comes from 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18.
It's really an extension of the last episode, "Our Heavenly Mansions Revealed," but some interesting areas discussed are the the history of translations so that we could better understand the origin of the main subject which is the rapture, what it means means by definition, why it needs to take place, the effects of this event - as in not just with our bodies, but also the effects that it will have on the whole earth that leads into the next prophetic event on the calendar being the great tribulation. Moreover, to provide comfort and proof that it's not something the church is not appointed for. So expect this to be a very highly detailed, very eye-opening message that should also result in our desire to go witness to others the good news of Jesus Christ so that they may not get left behind.
Please note that this is my personal interpretation of the scripture to the best of my current knowledge and understanding. I encourage anyone to please check and verify as the scripture encourages all believers to do so. There may be times where I have overlooked and/or misunderstood information by mistake which is why verifying is important if you feel lead by the by Holy Spirit to do so.
