E147 – Heresy (But In A Good Way)

E146 – Misquoting Paul – "Be Subject to the Governing Authorities"

E141 – Misquoting Paul - "I can do all things..."
We use this verse ALL the time. It’s on t-shirts, Bible covers, knick-knacks, and even tattooed in ink. But what does it really mean? Is this a personal motivator for accomplishing great things? Or is Paul up to something else when he says that “I ca… -
E140 – Bible Translations [Special Guest Jon Clemence]
Can I trust my Bible? With so many translations out there, how can I know which one is the “best”? And how can I figure out which one is “right” when they don’t say the same thing? These questions and more prompt us to dive into the world of Bible tr… -
E139 – Why the HECK Should We Read Our Bibles?
We’ve all been told we should read our Bibles, but why exactly? If we come right down to it, are we satisfied with our own answers? What does our track record tell us about our belief in our own answers? Let’s dive into this topic and see if we can f… -
E138 – “Disciples Make Disciples” – Really?
What is the role of discipleship? Is it just to make other disciples? If not, what role does discipleship and evangelism play in the life of a disciple? Join us as we discuss these ideas and try to bring some clarity out of many terms that often get …
