When leadership breaks down, God doesn’t stay silent. He sends prophets—brash, untamed carriers of his voice and values. This week, we pan across the Bible’s epic landscape all the way back to the Garden to ask: What is leadership meant to be? What does it mean when the prophets arrive on the scene? 

From Eden to Elijah, Isaiah, and Jonah, we trace the deeper purpose behind these chaotic characters. It’s not about theatrics. It’s about hope. And it’s about what you can pray for now. Because God still moves through those who carry his heart into the dark.

Word & the Wild is a one-year Bible adventure with friends. Join from anywhere and enjoy a fun, rewarding, and doable 12-month journey through the Bible where you read it from cover to cover and understand it. It’s not a devotional or recap. It’s a guide by your side through God’s Word. With support from a weekly podcast and an online community of fellow travelers, this is the year when you finally explore the Bible in its own words and on its own terms for yourself.
