About this listen
Join beloved Bible teacher Margaret Feinberg as you learn how to move from simply understanding Scripture to entering stories that can be touched, tasted, smelled, and savored.
The Bible is full of clever plots and compelling stories, laced with historic insights and literary beauty. But despite its richness and depth, many of us struggle to close the gap between the ancient world and our own.
What does it mean to know that Jesus is the Good Shepherd when the only place you've encountered sheep is at a petting zoo? How can you understand the promise of a land overflowing with honey when you buy yours in a bear-shaped bottle? Can you truly grasp the urgency of Jesus' invitation to abide in the vine when you shop for grapes at a local grocery store?
In Scouting the Divine, Margaret invites you to accompany her on the adventure of a lifetime across the nation to herd sheep in Oregon, harvest fields with a Nebraska farmer, prune vines in California, and explore hives with a veteran beekeeper in Colorado. Along the way, you'll explore how ancient livelihoods illuminate meaningful truths that apply to life today.
With Margaret's trademark humor and vulnerability, you'll:
- Learn the secret of how to live like you have a shepherd
- Unlock the sweetest promises of God
- Discover the gift of divine timing
Scouting the Divine will revolutionize the way you understand the Bible--and leave you wonderstruck by the magnificence of God.

Story
In the first half of life, we are naturally preoccupied with establishing ourselves; climbing, achieving, and performing. But as we grow older and encounter challenges and mistakes, we need to see ourselves in a different and more life-giving way. This message of falling down - that is in fact moving upward - is the most resisted and counterintuitive of messages in the world's religions. Falling Upward offers a new paradigm for understanding one of the most profound of life's mysteries: how those who have fallen down are the only ones who understand "up".

We’ve all seen the memes that populate the internet: live your truth, follow your heart, you only have one life to live. They sound nice and positive. But what if these slogans are actually lies that unhinge us from reality and leave us anxious and exhausted? Another Gospel? author Alisa Childers invites you to examine modern lies that are disguised as truths in today’s culture. Everyday messages of peace, fulfillment, and empowerment swirl around social media. On the surface, they seem like sentiments of freedom and hope, but in reality, they are deeply deceptive.

Robin Jones Gunn reveals poignant truths from her life as well as from the lives of women in the Bible as she flips the notion that we are at the mercy of circumstances. She asks, what if God has dreams for you? What if he is accomplishing those dreams in the midst of shattered hopes? When life doesn’t go as expected, it’s easy to feel like a victim. We look at the events that have gone wrong and view our lives as impaired. What if we could see our future as God sees it?

In a shallow light-speed world, how can we really know and be known by another person? How do we make true friends? The Digital Age is all about change, but the need for true friendship never changes. We are designed for real engagement with others - for affirmation that goes beyond a simple "like" on social media, for connection over meals, for hope and excitement about the future. Above all, we need to be known and accepted for who we are.

Inviting! Contagious! Fresh!
I was delighted that the narration was Margaret's voice! Such a fresh and informative look at familiar passages (and some not so well known ) as each of these masters of their trade bring rich insights as Margaret applies fresh biblical perspectives . Absolutely loved it and highly recommend it. How much more I sense God's love and desire to know him more!

God in the everyday
This book helped me understand how God's word is explaining His interaction with us by using modern agricultural and animal keeping examples. The author excels at extending Biblical reference into modern day scenarios to really help me see God at work in me around me. The pace is quick but not overwhelming. Sometimes the authors voice can get a little monotone but all in all the book is insightful and helped me understand God in New ways.

I found a treasure in this book
As a new beekeeper I am searching for books about bees written from a Biblical perspective. I didn’t think it would be so difficult to find. How could so many beekeepers see the intricacies of bees and not see God’s hand in their creation? This is the first book I have found that gave all the credit to God as the master creator. I truly enjoyed it! Thank you
