At the Zoo—Lamb

We’re starting a new series called “At the Zoo.” In this series, we’ll be exploring the characteristics, the activities, and the symbolism of the top ten animals in the Bible.

In this first episode, Dr. Bruce Becker will explain why he considers the lamb to be the #1 animal in his top ten list. There is an Old Testament reason and a New Testament one. And they both have something in common.

What is Bible Threads With Dr. Bruce Becker?

The Bible can be intimidating, right? There are 66 different books, more than 700,000 words, and all of it was written over a period of 1,600 years by dozens of different authors. How do we make sense of it all, and what does it mean for our lives? Amazingly, the Bible is incredibly interconnected with “threads” that run through it from beginning to end. In this podcast, Bible scholar and author Dr. Bruce Becker will uncover these threads, help you dig deeper into God’s truth, and inspire you to live your life with greater confidence and joy.

Dr. Becker brings his vast experience to share with you through this podcast. He has served as the pastor of a mission start in New York State, lead pastor of a church in Brillion, Wisconsin, and a ministry coach to churches and schools. Dr. Becker is currently the executive vice president of Time of Grace Ministry.

The mission of Time of Grace is to point people to what matters most: Jesus. Using a variety of media (television, radio, podcasts, print publications, and digital), Time of Grace teaches tough topics in an approachable and relatable way, accessible in multiple languages, making the Bible clear and understandable for those who need encouragement in their walks of faith and for those who don’t yet know Jesus at all.
