In this episode Kerry mentions an episode of the Twenty Something podcast. You can find it at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-xAyP7_i-4M.
In this episode Kerry and Lori Denning explore the story of the Book of Esther. They explore the literary elements that help us understand the book and its themes. They look at how Esther goes from being depicted as passive to active and can be our own story. They look at the role of God in the book, and also how the book shows how you can move forward given whatever your circumstance as you just take advantage of whatever is given you and trust in God. They also look at the difficulty of being religious and faithful in the midst of people who are upset with us for our views. Then Kerry and Justin Top, a military chaplain who teaches other chaplains, explore what happens when we don't see the miracles we are praying for. Or how we may feel when we see others experience miracles but they don't. They discuss how we feel when that happens and provide some ideas for how to think about it and how not to think about it. They also explore the notion that sometimes the struggle we go through when we don't see miracles is a form of grace that we need even more than the miracle. Then Kerry and Julianne explore the same topic, looking at the scriptures are lives of prophets to help us understand this difficult and painful element of all our lives. They also delve into the fact that we all sometimes see some miracles but not others in our lives. They discuss that miracles are related to faith, but when we don't see miracles it is not because we don't have faith.

Kerry and Brad Wilcox review the history of Israel and then use that to help us understand the way Israel was supposed to be, how they were instead, and how that led to their scattering. They also talk about the reasons for the scattering. Then Kerry and Julianne review the things we need to know about the gathering of Israel. They also speak of what that teaches us about Jehovah, or Jesus Christ.

In this episode Kerry helps us understand what Chronicles is, and then he and Dr. Christina Olson explain more about Chronicles. Then Kerry teaches us lessons the Chroniclers wanted us to learn from Asa and Jehoshaphat that aren't taught in Kings. Then Kerry gives us a big picture overview of the Kings of Israel and the lessons we learn from how they work -- or didn't work -- with God and His prophets. Kerry also helps us see what we can learn about God's mercy and love and the nature of Christ/Jehovah, and God from these stories.

In this episode Kerry provides an overview of the fall of Israel to the Assyrian Empire. and the scattering of the ten tribes. He shows how Judah comes under the control of the Assyrian Empire. He sets things up for the discussion that he and his wife, Julianne, have regarding the fall of Israel and the rescue of Jerusalem. Together they contrast the two kingdoms during that time period and how the kings of Israel turned to idols while Hezekiah turned to the Lord. They delve into the way Hezekiah learned to rely on God after having started to rely on the world. They discuss Isaiah's role in this and lessons we can learn from it. Kerry addresses the false idea that Israel was supposed to be worshipping a female deity. They talk about how God will fight our battle if we keep our covenant as they talk about the miraculous deliverance of Jerusalem. Then Kerry and George Pierce look at the archaeology of Jerusalem at the time of the fall of Jerusalem to the Babylonians. They talk about what the remains can teach us about the siege, the attacks, the burning, and the terrible living conditions during the siege, including the diseases people had and the starvation happening during the siege of Jerusalem by the Babylonians. Then Kerry and Andrew Skinner discuss the fall of Judah by looking at the bigger picture and the sins of Judah that led to this fall. They look at the reigns of Manasseh and Josiah, and even discuss Lehi during the time of Josiah. They then examine the history of the sons of Josiah and how their reigns led to the destruction and Babylonian captivity. They set up the stories of Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and Daniel. Kerry discusses the way these stories, and the eventual gathering of Israel, demonstrate so powerfully God's love and longsuffering and unending mercy.
