In Episode 168 of the Grace at LAST Podcast, we look at how prayer changes when we realize God is not distant but already present with us through Christ. If we are already united with Him, prayer becomes less about trying to get God's attention and more about enjoying an ongoing relationship. Together we'll consider how many of our ideas about prayer have been shaped by distance, performance, or fear, and what it looks like to simply rest in the finished work of JesUs. Rather than offering formulas or techniques, this episode invites you to rediscover prayer as a natural, honest conversation flowing from the security of God's love and our union with Him.

167-In this episode of Grace at LAST, we move from understanding the New Covenant to living it. It is one thing to recognize what JesUs accomplished, but another to let that reality reshape the way we think, respond, and experience everyday life.

What if living in the New Covenant is less about trying harder and more about seeing different? We look at how fear, performance, and old patterns can continue to influence us even after we understand grace, and why renewing our minds is so important. You'll discover how your past was not wasted, how growth is something to celebrate, and why freedom becomes increasingly natural as we see ourselves through the finished work of Christ.

This episode is practical, encouraging, and filled with everyday examples that invite you to experience the peace, confidence, and rest that come from living in the reality of the New Covenant.

166-How do we read the Bible after the finished work of JesUs? In this episode of Grace at LAST, we look at one of the biggest shifts many believers never consider: God has not changed, but covenant has.Instead of reading every passage as though it is written directly to us, we learn to ask who the original audience was, where the passage fits in the unfolding story of Scripture, and how it points to Christ. As we renew our minds with truth, fear, confusion, and struggling begin to be replaced with rest and clarity. The Bible becomes one beautiful, connected story revealing God's unchanging heart and His completed work through JesUs.

165-If you’ve ever felt more confused the more you studied the Bible, this episode is for you. In How Do I Read the Bible Now? we step back and look at Scripture through the lens of covenant, circumstances, and fulfillment rather than treating every verse as if it was written directly to us. What changes when we stop reading the Bible as one flat book of rules and start seeing the story it tells? We talk about audience importance, the movement from old covenant to new, and why reading with the big picture in view can bring clarity, peace, and a much healthier way to approach Scripture.

164-In the final episode of the Genesis to Revelation series, we step back from the details and consider the bigger picture. After looking at covenant from Genesis through Revelation, what does it look like to live in light of what has been fulfilled?

For years, many of us have approached Scripture searchingfor the next insight, the missing piece, or a deeper level of understanding. Yet when we zoom out and follow the thread of covenant through the Bible, a simpler and more beautiful picture begins to appear. The story is not mainly about self-effort, achieving, or maintaining a relationship with God. It is about God's desire to dwell with humanity and bring us into union with Himself through JesUs Christ.

This episode reflects on what it means to live from rest rather than performance, from acceptance rather than fear, and from the reality of what has already been accomplished rather than what we hope to someday receive.

163-In Part 7 of Genesis to Revelation, we look at the book of Revelation through the perspective of covenant rather than disaster. What if Revelation was not mainly about events thousands of years in the future, but about the closing of one covenant age and the full arrival of another? Together, we consider the audience, timing, symbols, and imagery that have shaped so many interpretations of this book.

From the fall of Jerusalem and destruction of the temple to the arrival of the New Jerusalem, this episode follows the thread of covenant fulfillment woven throughout Scripture. If Revelation marks the end of the old covenant order, what does that mean for believers today? Join us as we reconsider familiar passages and explore the possibility that the story reaches its fulfillment in JesUs, inviting us to live in the reality of what has already been accomplished.

162-Part 6 of Genesis to Revelation invites us to consider JesUs not as the beginning of a new plan, but as the fulfillment of what had been unfolding all along. If Genesis introduces covenant, relationship, and God’s desire to dwell with humanity, what if JesUs is where those realities reach their fullness?

In this episode, we explore covenant through the lens of fulfillment and ask whether Scripture may be telling a story moving toward completion rather than interruption. We look at how promises, patterns, and expectations find their meaning in Christ and consider what changes when fulfillment becomes the lens through which we read the story.

If covenant has been fulfilled, what does that mean for how we relate to God today? What do we hold onto, and what are we invited to release?

This episode is an invitation to reconsider and see the story with fresh eyes.

161-In Part 5 of Genesis to Revelation, we explore the purpose of the law and whether it was always pointing beyond itself to something greater. Scripture describes the law as a shadow, revealing the outline of what was to come but not the reality itself. From Genesis onward, covenant points toward relationship with God, not endless efforts to gain acceptance. Together, we consider how the law prepared people to recognize Christ and how JesUs fulfills what earlier patterns anticipated. What changes when we see Scripture moving toward fulfillment rather than more rules? This episode invites a fresh perspective on God's desire for union.
