Verse by Verse Bible Study with Dr. Wayne Barber

Verse by Verse Bible Study with Dr. Wayne Barber is a patient, sermon-style Bible study built around close attention to the text. It does not rush the hard passages. Sessions work through Revelation 4-6, where John sees the throne, the four living creatures, the sealed book, the Lamb who stands as slain, and the first seal opened. The teaching keeps returning to one question: who is worthy, and what does that mean for ordinary believers now? It is serious material. The series speaks about judgment, wrath, the Antichrist, false peace, tribulation, worship, salvation, and the authority of Christ without sanding down the edges. Still, the delivery is conversational rather than academic. It moves from Greek word distinctions to plain summaries, from Daniel’s seventy weeks to a lunch story with college students, from the lion of Judah to the experience of watching a child play basketball. The rhythm is part exposition, part pastoral challenge. Short questions keep the study moving. Longer explanations slow down over symbolic details: a sea like glass, crowns cast before the throne, a book in the open right hand, a Lamb who is slain and standing. The teaching also admits limits. When the text is unclear, it says so, then steers attention back to what the passage makes plain. That humility gives the more forceful moments room to land. The show suits listeners who want Scripture handled verse by verse, with cross-references, doctrinal conviction, and direct application. It is especially strong for people drawn to Revelation but wary of speculation that outruns the passage. The episodes are introduced by John Ankerberg and centered on the late Dr. Wayne Barber’s teaching. Barber’s style is warm, urgent, and sometimes funny, but the destination is usually reverence. A heavenly vision becomes a call to worship. A prophecy lesson becomes a warning against deception. A phrase about the Lamb becomes an appeal to trust Christ now, not later.
