Description

In this episode of Theology Is Fun, Dr. Corey and Dr. Ben explore Jesus’ powerful statement in John 6: “I am the bread of life.”

What begins with jokes about cereal, breadsticks, and wilderness diets quickly turns into a deep theological discussion tracing this claim all the way back to Genesis, the Garden of Eden, the Exodus narrative, and the manna in the wilderness.

Together they unpack:

1. Why hunger exists in the biblical storyline
2. How Adam’s fall changed humanity’s relationship to provision and creation
3. Why the Exodus is a type pointing forward to Christ
4. What the manna in Exodus 16 teaches about daily dependence on God
5. How Jesus redefines “bread from heaven” and applies it to Himself
6. The connection between the Bread of Life, the Lord’s Prayer, and eternal rest

Along the way, they discuss typology, the wilderness motif, the “already and not yet” of the Christian life, and how Christ sustains His people until He returns—or calls us home.

If you’ve ever wondered:

1. Why Jesus’ Bread of Life statement shocked His listeners
2. How the Old Testament prepares us for John 6
3. What it means to rely on God for “daily bread” today
4. How the Exodus points to salvation in Christ

—this episode is for you.
