Faith Through Affliction: Beautiful Truths for Hard Times
Paul's blocked road to Thessalonica becomes a masterclass in faith through affliction. Unable to return, he sends Timothy to a young church that risked everything by turning from idols to follow Jesus. When Timothy reports they're standing firm despite persecution, Paul is revived. Affliction isn't divine neglect but proof of living faith in a world hostile to the gospel. Paul teaches us to pray constantly, supply what's lacking, and grow in love and holiness. His prayer …
Threshing Floor Whispers: Ruth Seeks Redemption From Boaz
A harvest ends and the threshing floor whispers with midnight courage as Ruth follows Naomi's plan to seek redemption from Boaz. Through oil lamps, barley dust, and a blue cloak, we witness how ordinary obedience becomes providence's pathway. Ruth 3 reveals bold faith acting before certainty, true redemption beyond earning, and faithful waiting anchored in the Redeemer's character. Boaz responds with honor and integrity, sending Ruth home at dawn with six measures of barley—a …
Hearts Raised High: Radical Truths About New Identity
Step into Paul's Rome as Colossians 3 comes alive—a sweeping call from doctrine to daily duty, from anxious striving to resurrection power. Hearts raised high, we seek things above where Christ is seated, reshaping earthly realities. Paul cuts through spiritual shortcuts, insisting Christ is sufficient. Then practical: put on compassion, kindness, humility, patience. Let peace rule. Forgiveness becomes reflex; gratitude, atmosphere. "Christ is all and in all" dismantles dividi…
Walking With Micah: What God Really Wants
What does God truly require? Not impressive rituals or grand sacrifices, but justice, mercy, and humility lived out in everyday moments. Walking with Micah, we explore a full reading of Micah 6 and discover how justice shows up in honest transactions, mercy interrupts our schedules with compassion, and humility keeps our hearts teachable. The Lord's controversy with His people exposes empty religion and calls us to faithfulness in our own corner—one choice, one act, one conversation at …
Motives Under Fire: Beautiful Truths About Gospel Truth
In 1 Thessalonians 2, Paul's motives under fire become the proving ground for gospel integrity. Writing from Corinth's workshop, he defends his ministry not with rhetoric but with radical transparency—bruises from Philippi, tent-making calluses, sleepless nights pouring into new believers. Boldness rises from obedience, not ego. Flattery is exposed as manipulation. Real ministry mirrors a nursing mother's gentleness and a father's steady encouragement, rejecting spotlight…

Threshing Floor Whispers: Ruth Seeks Redemption From Boaz

Hearts Raised High: Radical Truths About New Identity
The scene opens in a quiet Roman room where oil light trembles across parchment and chain, and yet the true focus is freedom. Paul, under guard, speaks with the heat of a man convinced that resurrection is not a metaphor but reality. He lays out the…
About the Host
Christie Richardson
Missionary
Christie is a missionary and ordained pastor—a dedicated servant of faith whose life and ministry are centered on sharing God’s Word and bringing comfort to those in need. With a heart shaped by years of military service and missionary outreach in the Caribbean, Africa, and Europe, Christie has long been drawn to serve people from all walks of life.
During her time serving in Thessaloniki, Greece, Christie led a street ministry focused on reaching the city’s homeless community. Equipped with compassion, prayer, and audio bibles in the Greek language, she shared the hope of the Gospel with those living on the margins—offering not just Scripture, but presence, listening, and love.
Her work through In the Field Audio Bible is a natural extension of that calling. These recordings allow Christie to reach listeners with the soothing, uplifting power of God’s Word, whether they are at home, in shelters, or navigating life’s most difficult roads. With every reading, she brings warmth, empathy, and a deep sense of God’s presence—creating sacred moments of peace, encouragement, and spiritual connection.
In August 2025, Christie moved to Vlorë, Albania, continuing her mission of delivering the audio bible to those in need—bringing the hope of Scripture to a new community longing for truth, comfort, and the presence of God.
Christie’s mission remains simple but profound: to offer the gift of faith, comfort, and the transformative hope of Scripture—one verse, one voice, and one soul at a time.
