Show Notes
As we close out the book of Numbers (chapters 32 through the end), we arrive at a powerful and sobering moment for Israel — the wilderness is almost over, but not everyone is ready to cross over. In this episode, we walk through the final chapters of Numbers, where some tribes choose to settle just short of the promise, satisfied with good land instead of God’s full inheritance. It’s a warning we still need today: don’t get weary at the edge of breakthrough, and don’t stay behind when God is calling you forward.
If you’ve been tired, discouraged, or tempted to settle because the journey has been long, this episode is for you. We talk about finishing well, staying obedient even when it’s uncomfortable, and why the end of the wilderness requires just as much faith as the beginning.
As we reflect on Israel’s final steps before the Jordan, we’re reminded that our true rest isn’t found in settling — it’s found in remaining in Jesus. Stay encouraged in this season. The promise is closer than you think.
Don’t stop short. Don’t stay behind. Cross over.
More from In The Beginning: A Bible Story for the Girlies
HOLA HERMOSAS PRECIOSAS!!! this week we have a short episode and we are just getting down to the basics. At the end of the day, this podcast has one goal - that we would READ THE BIBLE. But literally why????
What happens when following Jesus costs you something you never wanted to lose?
This week we’re talking about one of the most relatable people in the Bible: Gideon. Before he ever led 300 men into battle, he was hiding, doubting, and questioning whether God had really chosen him. We unpack who Baal was, why Israel kept turning away from God, and what happened when Gideon’s obedience completely changed his relationship with his own family. We also talk about the reality that following Jesus can sometimes create tension in our closest relationships and why that’s not always a sign you’re doing something wrong. As always, we’ll laugh, learn, and see what this story has to say to us today. 💛📖
The Israelites finally made it to the Promised Land… so how have things already gone left??!?!?!?! We have a little bit of backstory and catching up to do before we can even meet our assasin and the man he pays a visit to. Today we’re diving into Judges 1–3 where Israel starts compromising AND forgetting God. We talk about: ✨ when partial obedience is still disobedience ✨ The dangerous cycle of drifting from God ✨ Why struggle isn’t always a bad thing ✨ The story of Ehud (my lil the left-handed assassin cutie patootie ) ✨ and what modern Christians can maybe learn from Israel’s mess If you’ve ever wondered why we keep repeating the same mistakes, feel spiritually stuck, or feel like compromise “isn’t that deep” , get your tea cup and grab a seat séñorita!!!❤️
