Welcome to Come to the Table, where we’re pulling up a chair and digging into the parts of Scripture that are weird, wild, or just plain hard to understand. Today’s episode is part of our “Bible Stories for the Lame” mini-series—aka: Making the Bible make sense for the rest of us who love Jesus and just want to understand His Word without feeling like we need a seminary degree to do it.
This week, we’re in Ezekiel 37—the Valley of Dry Bones. It sounds like a Halloween movie plot, but it's actually one of the most powerful, hope-soaked visions in the Old Testament. This chapter speaks directly to dry seasons, silent years, and parts of us that feel too far gone for redemption.
If you’ve ever asked, “Can anything good come from this?” or “Is it even worth hoping again?”—this episode is for you.
In This Episode:
What’s actually happening in the book of Ezekiel?
Why the bones are dry, what it means, and why God asks such a haunting question
How this vision points forward to Jesus and the resurrection power available to us now
Why breath matters—and what it means when God breathes into what we thought was done
An honest reflection: Can these bones live… for real?
Lame Takeaway:God asks Ezekiel, “Can these bones live?”And the same question is being asked of us. In your dry, discouraged, defeated season… what’s your honest answer?
Because here’s the truth:God specializes in bringing dead things back to life.
Discussion Question:“Can these bones live?” — How would you honestly answer that question in your current season of life, faith, or healing?
