The Bible Explored with Rico Tice
Mondays at 1pm and 10pm
Here's what you can expect from The Bible Explored with Rico Tice.
Using CS Lewis's book title 'Surprised by Joy', Rico Tice takes us to Cana of Galilee to watch Jesus perform His first miracle of turning water into wine and explains it's significance in eastern culture.
A family story of two boys and their dad is retold and explained by Rico Tice as he gets to grips with what's really behind the parable of the prodigal son.
Although there are many Christian mission organisations, Rico shows us from Luke's gospel that the responsibility for evangelism is not just for a select few, but to every one of us.
With the culture today encouraging us to be successful, Rico looks at an extremely successful character in the Bible and shows us what might be the epitaph on his gravestone.
To ask the question "What is reality?" is to ask "what can we believe?" Rico looks at the afterlife and asks how we can be sure of where we are going.
The Bible is very clear that everyone has faith - but why do we have a faith? And as Rico explains, it's not how much faith we have, but what our faith is in.
What's the purpose of life? What's the point of living if everything ends with death? Rico shows why knowing the answer to death changes everything.
If ever we feel a sense of moral superiority because we go to church, Rico shows very plainly that even the most morally upright people need to be forgiven.
The parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector is unpacked by Rico to show how we can be afraid to expose what's inside us, whilst presenting a good exterior to others.
Modern day business scams may seem a far cry from life in the time of Christ, but Rico shows us that dodgy dealing is clearly set out in Luke 16
As a young boy rushes out to live his life of freedom, he finds himself running headlong into disaster. Rico brings the story of the prodigal son bang up to date.
Even though every believer will experience failure in their Christian walk, Rico shows us that it's how we respond to failure that is important.
