Remainder of 2026 Bible805 Schedule, June 12 through Jan.1, and reasons for the topics chosen

Build a solid foundation of the Bible into your life — Don’t miss any of the lessons below to build a solid Biblical foundation in your life.

Theme of this schedule of classes:
The Biblical Foundation and knowledge needed for a growing disciple of Jesus

I’m currently finishing a series on Ancient Prophets, Modern Messages; lessons on the series and links to all resources on it can be found on the www.Bible805.com site. The modern messages from these ancient prophets are many and challenging, but one that has come up again and again in these books is that the people were in the disobedient, sad, and sinful conditions they were in because of a lack of clear teaching, of God’s Word in their lives and the fault is most often laid at the feet of the priests, of those who should be teaching.

I was hit in the heart with that! I know each person is responsible for their personal intake of God’s Word and application of it, but at the same time the Bible consistently reminds teachers of their responsibility to be teachers of God’s Word.

The prophets reminded me of what I need to do as a teacher and after a lot of prayer and thought about how I can help the the people in the Bible classes I am responsible for (the live one I teach and those who listen and watch to Bible805 materials online) I’ve come up with the schedule I’m sharing with you.

What follows is a series of classes for between now and the end of 2026.

The Bible805 ministry has evolved over the years and in case you find posts that say otherwise, as of 2026–

#1 EVERYTHING, every resource from Bible805, the Bible805 Academy, and Bible805 Images is FREE !

I may have missed updating the current free status of items that previously had a change—but be assured if you go to the following sites—EVERYTHING is free on the following sites. The only things that have a charge are my books on Amazon.com.

My prayer has been for these resources to equip those who need them, especially under-resourced, new churches, missionaries, church plants, and anyone else who can benefit from them. God is gracious as I’ve had various challenges and haven’t been able to do anything to advertise these resources—I have no idea how people found them, though I know the Lord can work in amazing ways!

Podcasts from Yvon Prehn and Bible805

2026-06-19 by bible805

In addition to this website and YouTube, the podcasts are also available on many podcast sources including iTunes, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pocket Casts, and many more. Just go to your favorite and search for whatever podcast title below that you’d like to listen to. In addition, you can listen to any of them on www.YouTube.com/Bible805.

Bible805, Basic Bible teaching, difficult subjects made easy

Description: This podcast drives the weekly content of the Bible805 ministry, where, in weekly lessons I take sometimes difficult topics in the Bible or that are Bible-related and make them easy to understand and apply.

I’ve become more intentional in this approach, as many students told me in various ways “You make hard stuff easy.” I’ve got an upcoming, revised series on the Trinity (see the 2026 schedule for release dates) and you can check it out to see if that works for you. Lesson series for 2026 include: Genesis and Job, Answers to the Big Questions of Life, The Trinity, Life after Death, Jesus, Salvation, and Discipleship, How We Got Our Bibles and more.

Schedule: The podcast airs each Wednesday on the podcast channels. By Friday of each week, links to videos, notes, discussion guides, and related infographics on are posted on www.Bible805.com, and free editable source materials that enable you to teach the lessons are available on www.Bible805Academy.com. Past lessons are available on both.

CLICK HERE for the link to the podcast website with all current episodes available.

Hobo Soul Podcast, road advice from the Bible and someone a few steps ahead

Description: This is my newest and favorite podcast, where I talk directly to the people I care about with short Bible lessons and challenges for their day. It’s more upbeat and casual than the strictly Bible-teaching podcasts I’ve done for several years. Overall, Hobo Soul podcasts will cover a variety of topics related to going through life as a follower of Jesus. They are stand-alone in content and don’t need to be listened to in any particular order.

Schedule: The podcasts are released every Tuesday and Thursday. I tried doing them 5 days a week earlier (which you will hear me refer to in some early episodes), but that was not sustainable, and I can be consistent with this schedule.

CLICK HERE for the link to the podcast website with all current episodes available. Listen to ones you missed; they aren’t in any order.

Ministry Miscellany Podcast, resources of all sorts for Bible teachers

Description: This is a true miscellany of materials all related to helping you know, trust, apply, and teach the Bible, however in creating the podcast I am targeting it specifically to Bible teachers and will provide commentary, tips, and ideas for how to use resources to either learn more effectively yourself or to be a better Bible teacher.

A number of the podcasts will discuss the ministry vision of Bible805 and why I teach the way I do.

I’ll do this through stand-alone discussions, blog topics to challenge and inspire, and through a verbal version of the weekly Bible805 newsletter and explanations of resources and how to use them.

In passing on resources, be assured that Bible805 never has and never will take any advertising or participate in any affiliate marketing programs. My ministry and my presentations are totally independent, not beholden to any outside organization. The only resources that have a cost will be the books that I have for sale on Amazon and other sites. All the teaching resources I tell you about, infographics, and any downloadable tools for teaching are totally free. If I recommend anything that does cost, it is because I truly believe it might be helpful to you and not for any monetary gain as I do not get any money for recommending anything.

Schedule: An audio recording of my weekly newsletter will be weekly. Resource podcasts will be randomly released.

Episode #18, Clarifying the purpose of Bible805 and its part in the Great Conversation

2026-06-18 by bible805

The Great Conversation is my term for the combined teachings of all followers of Jesus as we attempt to share Him with our world. I believe it’s important to clarify the place of Bible805 in all the other options you have for learning the Bible, for those of you using my resources so there are no unrealistic expectations.

To do that, I’ll first clarify what I mean by the Great Conversation and then what I believe is my part and the part of Bible805 in it. Below is the podcast and then the text of it.

Genesis & Job, Answers to the Big Questions of Life, Part Two

2026-06-17 by bible805

This lesson continues our study of the Big Questions of Life by examining answers found in Genesis and Job. We learn that God is our Creator and therefore the foundation for our purpose and meaning in life. We also gain a clearer understanding of Satan—his origin, limitations, and methods of deception. Finally, Job provides one of the Bible’s earliest and clearest affirmations of life after death and bodily resurrection, giving believers hope that extends beyond this life. Through Job’s experiences, we are reminded that God remains sovereign, even in suffering, and that our ultimate future is secure in Him.

Following is the podcast, video, and below them a PDF copy of the class handouts that includes the Notes, Discussion Guide, and the infographic on Old Testament Lifespans.

Motivation to teach the foundational truths of the Christian life to your people

2026-06-14 by Yvon Prehn

I just finished teaching a series on Ancient Prophets, Modern Messages, and two passages stood out to and convicted me as a Bible teacher. They are:

Hosea 4:6, “My people are destroyed from lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also reject you as my priests; because you have ignored the law of your God, I also will ignore your children.

Malachi 2:7-8 “For the lips of a priest ought to preserve knowledge, because he is the messenger of the Lord Almighty and people seek instruction from his mouth. ⁸But you have turned from the way and by your teaching have caused many to stumble;

We don’t need to go back to the Old Testament prophets to see evidence of what happens to the people of God when they aren’t taught the foundational truths of the Christian faith, when they are not grounded in God’s Word and are taught primarily to go it to feel better and be more positive about life.

That doesn’t last much beyond the last praise song.

Wrapped up in love, three of the most important foundational truths for a realistic life with God

2026-06-14 by Yvon Prehn

Job_Rebuked_by_His_Friend — Check out the lessons on Answers to the Big Questions of Life, from Genesis and Job for answers to the tough challenges of life.

This post is from Answers to the Big Questions of Life from Genesis and Job, Part One

Key verse: “Where were you when I laid the foundations of the earth? Tell me, if you know so much.” Job 38:4, TLB

One of the worst things in life is being deceived about something important—if we think someone loves us and we find out they don’t; if we think a job we love isn’t what thought it would be; if we find out we aren’t the person we thought we were—believing something important and then finding out we were wrong can be devastating.

That reality is vitally true with our relationship to God. We must believe the correct things about Him for our walk with Him to make sense and for us to make the right decisions in how we follow Him. Sadly, many of the teachings today, even in the church, focus on simply what will make us feel good and if God doesn’t make us feel good or do what we want Him to do, many get mad and walk away.

Our lesson series on Genesis and Job was created to help you gain a clearer picture of what to expect in your relationship with Him. The three foundational truths I’m about to share, if looked at alone, can appear harsh and even cruel at times. But it is important to remember that wrapped up in every hard concept of God, everything that is difficult to understand, or a trial we are given to endure, comes from a God who is, above all things LOVE.
