    Episode 70 - Becoming People of the Text: A Conversation with Marty Solomon
    Oct 2 2025
    In this rich and eye-opening episode of Peaceable and Kind, host Derek Vreeland sits down with Marty Solomon—president of Impact Campus Ministries, host of the BEMA Discipleship podcast, and author of Asking Better Questions of the Bible. Together, they explore how reading Scripture through its original Jewish context can transform our understanding of Jesus, justice, and the story of redemption. Marty shares his own journey—from a fundamentalist evangelical upbringing, through seasons of doubt and “deconstruction,” to a renewed faith rooted in the historical and cultural world of the Bible. You’ll hear why becoming “people of the text” means more than knowing Bible facts—it’s about letting Scripture shape our lives, imaginations, and relationships. The conversation dives into how the Jewish background of the New Testament illuminates the ministry of Jesus, why historical context must come before theology, and how biblical justice (mishpat) and righteousness (zedekah) work together to restore shalom—wholeness, peace, and flourishing—in a broken world. Whether you’ve been wrestling with faith, longing for a deeper way to read the Bible, or curious about how Jewish roots change our perspective on the Gospel, this episode offers wisdom, challenge, and hope. Key Takeaways✔️ Why historical context changes how we read the Bible✔️ The difference between Greek and Hebrew ideas of justice✔️ How righteousness and justice create biblical shalom✔️ Why curiosity—not certainty—should guide Bible study✔️ How Jesus’ Jewish world shapes His teaching and ministry 🎧 Listen now and rediscover the Bible as a living, transforming story that points us to Jesus.

  • Episode 69 - Finding Jesus in the Old Testament

    Episode 69 - Finding Jesus in the Old Testament
    Sep 25 2025
    In this episode of Peaceable and Kind, host Derek Vreeland invites you into the practice of reading the Old Testament with fresh eyes—looking for Jesus in every passage. Derek shares his personal journey of nearly a decade of daily Old Testament reading, rooted in the daily office lectionary, and how it has transformed from duty to delight. Drawing from Scripture, church history, and personal stories, he demonstrates how Christians can uncover the presence of Jesus in the Hebrew Scriptures.Key Takeaways Why the Old Testament is essential reading for Christians today. How Jesus Himself taught us to read Scripture with Him at the center (John 5:39; Luke 24). The difference between reading the Bible in its historical context and reading it devotionally with Christ in view. Insights from Charles Spurgeon and Augustine on finding Christ in every passage. How allegory and prayerful reflection reveal Christ in unexpected places. A practical example from Psalm 89 of seeing King Jesus in the Psalms. Why some verses may not immediately point to Christ—and how to wrestle with that tension. Scriptures mentioned in this episode:Luke 24:27Luke 24:44-451 Corinthians 10:1-4Psalm 89:19Psalm 89:24-27Books mentioned in this episode: Jesus-Centered Bible by Group PublishingSeven Things I Wish Christians Knew about the Bible by Michael Bird Preorder Derek's new book, Incarnation: 8 Lessons on How God Meets Us here: https://amzn.to/42jSZAs Did you find this episode helpful on your spiritual journey?

  • Episode 68 - Peace and Violence of the Old Testament

    Episode 68 - Peace and Violence of the Old Testament
    Sep 18 2025
    How do we make sense of the violent passages in the Old Testament while following the peace teachings of Jesus? In this episode of Peaceable and Kind, Derek Vreeland takes on one of the most common and challenging questions he receives as a pastor and author: Why does God seem so violent in the Old Testament compared to Jesus in the New Testament? Derek walks us through: Why Joshua and 1 Samuel 15 are such difficult passages for modern readers. Four historical Christian approaches to interpreting divine violence: acceptance, accommodation, misunderstanding, and allegory. The importance of foundational Christian beliefs—God’s oneness, immutability, pure love, and Jesus as the perfect revelation of God. Why wrestling with Scripture is not a weakness, but part of a faithful Christian journey. How we can faithfully read the Old Testament while keeping our eyes fixed on Jesus, the Prince of Peace. This is a thoughtful, theologically rich conversation for anyone who has struggled with the tension between the God of the Old Testament and the God revealed in Christ.Key Takeaways The God of the Old Testament is the same as the God of the New Testament. God’s nature is unchanging, pure love—even if the stories in Scripture sometimes leave us unsettled. Christians throughout history have used multiple ways to interpret violent passages—we don’t have to resolve the tension to remain faithful. Jesus is the final word, the clearest picture of God, and our ultimate guide.
