Who Will See? Faith, Surrender, and the Road to Jerusalem

October 14, 2025 • Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter • Luke 18:9—19:44

In this episode, we explore Luke 18:9–19:44, where Jesus challenges pride and self-reliance, calling His followers to radical humility and deep trust in the Father. Through the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector, He contrasts outward righteousness with a repentant heart. We see children lifted as models of kingdom faith, while a wealthy ruler walks away—unwilling to surrender all. Yet Jesus promises that sacrificial trust in Him will not go unrewarded. As He foretells His death and heals a blind man, Jesus steadily turns His face toward Jerusalem. In Zacchaeus’ story, we witness salvation come to a home, underscoring His mission to seek and save the lost. Finally, Jesus weeps over the city that will reject Him, revealing the grief of a Messiah whose path to glory leads through rejection and sacrifice. 🔔 Subscribe and join the journey through the Gospel of Luke! ============================= Scripture ============================= 📖 Luke 18:9–19:44 ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

Faithful Foreigners in a Broken World

June 18, 2025 • Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter • Luke 17:11—18:8

What does it mean to live as faithful citizens of God's kingdom when the world doesn't play by the rules? In this episode of the Bible Study Podcast, Matt, Kristy, and Micah draw upon Luke 17:11-18:8 to uncover what Jesus teaches about gratitude, justice, and faith that endures. They unpack why the grateful Samaritan points us toward true worship, what it means that God’s kingdom is already “in our midst,” and how to keep trusting when life feels unfair or exhausting. This conversation will challenge and encourage you to see your everyday moments (your work, your waiting, your persistence) as part of the unshakable Kingdom of God in the messiness of life. 🔔 Subscribe and join the journey through the Gospel of Luke! ============================= Scripture ============================= 📖 Luke 17:11–18:8 ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

Controversies, Corrections and Calls to Trust

March 4, 2025 • Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter • Luke 11:14–54

Jesus shows his authority over Satan and engages in conflict about the power of God with the Pharisees. Jesus calls out the Pharisees by reminding them of the wicked generation in the wilderness. This whole passage is undergirded by the Exodus and wilderness narratives in Exodus, Leviticus, and Numbers. We cover demonology, how we deal with evil spirits, and we even got a surprise visit from Craig! The clear application of this passage is that what matters is what/who resides inside of you. Are you a representative of Jesus and his power, or are you displaying something outwardly that is not true of you on the inside. ============================= Scripture ============================= 📖 Luke 11:14-54 ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

February 18, 2025 • Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter • Luke 9:51—10:24

"Jesus sets his face toward Jerusalem." This is the beginning of the Travel Narrative of Luke. Jesus is set against the backdrop of Elijah's prophetic ministry. Micah and Matt argue about how well John the Baptist understood the nature of Jesus' ministry. Watch James and John - the "Sons of Thunder" - get rebuked by Jesus for their violent reaction. And join the 72 disciples as they begin to shoulder the ministry of the gospel. Listen as Kristy quotes a commentary and sets the room on fire. ============================= Scripture ============================= 📖 Luke 9:51-10:24 ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved

Introducing the Travel Narrative of Luke

February 11, 2025 • Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, winter • Luke 1:9–50

Welcome back to the Mission Hills Bible Study Podcast! For our 11th season we are studying the "Travel Narrative" of Luke. That's Luke 9:51-19:44. It's such a cool, contained section that is unique to Luke. In Luke 9:51, Jesus "sets his face toward Jerusalem," and for the next 10 chapters, he travels toward the cross, under the shadow of his looming crucifixion. We talk though the structure of Luke-Acts: a geographical chiasm. Some big themes of Luke are the dichotomy of feasts, the danger of money, the upside down kingdom and great reversal, Jesus as savior/salvation, and caring for the outcasts and marginalized of society. Interesting things to pay attention to in Luke 1:1-9:50, include John the Baptist introducing Jesus's ministry, the Song of Mary, and Jesus' divine revelation by Peter and the Transfiguration. ============================= Scripture ============================= 📖 Luke 1-9:50 ============================= Bible Study Podcast: Channel Credits ============================= 🎙️ HOSTS:: Kristy Allen, Micah Harrison, Matt Winter 🎛️ PRODUCTION + MIXING:: Lepard Productions 🎨 CREATIVE DIRECTOR:: Colin McFarland A Product of Lepard Productions + The Mission Hills Podcast Network in Littleton, CO. © Mission Hills Church - All Rights Reserved
