Podcast: Diving Into God’s Word
Hosts: Mark Cares, with cohost Jim
Description: “One of the many amazing aspects of God’s Word is that it is so simple that even children can understand its message. But it is also so rich in meaning that a lifetime of study can only scratch the surface. Mark J. Cares looks at some of its rich meaning in the hopes that it will enliven your study.”
A taste of previous topics: Each week, Mark Cares, who spent much of his ministry witnessing to Mormons, and Jim walk through a section of Scripture, exploring its meaning and practical application. Recent episodes have covered what the Bible says about fear, the role of prayer, the power of words, and how believers can witness to the hope they have in Christ—even in the face of death. From Old Testament prophets like Haggai to Jesus’ teachings on prayer, the podcast aims to help listeners grow in their understanding and confidence in God’s Word.
Length: Under 20 min.
Some thoughts: Diving Into God’s Word feels like sitting in on a weekly Bible study with a trusted pastor. With decades of experience in pastoral ministry and outreach, Cares presents biblical truth with warmth and clarity. The short, focused episodes are easy to follow while still providing deep insightful analysis of the context, history, and meaning behind God’s written Word. The addition of Jim’s commentary in recent months has helped to foster a friendly, conversational tone. For anyone looking for a deeper understanding of Scripture without significant time commitment, the Diving Into God’s Word podcast is a solid and reliable resource.
