Episodes

The men are often named... i.e. Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Paul, Timothy, Peter and on and on. As a guy producing this podcast, I've grown to appreciate the role of women in the spread of the Christian message. Without women,...

The audience doesn't change the message, but it does change how you deliver the message! Paul was a master. Notes: Acts 17 Notes

I was a major philosophy buff in my later years... and an atheist. Until I found someone that could meet me where I stood, could make the message of Christ resonate with my existing world view. Oh, to be a fly on the wall whe...

Someone in my church said this on Facebook: "Ultimately if I am wrong, I am just dead. I still lived the life I chose." I have to say, I heard that many times when I lived as an atheist... as if faith is a way to hedge your b...

They didn't have the New Testament. They didn't have eyewitness experience. What the Bereans did have was a thirst for knowledge, a healthy dose of skepticism, and the need to know the truth! Today, we have access to so much....

When you tip your green beer today, at least you'll know why! What is the significance of the Shamrock? That Shamrock shake you're chugging at McDonalds has a deep meaning. Let's connect the green to the meaning - it's a huge...

Acts 18: Christianity Meets the World! Paul is frustrated with the Jews and he moves on. God is with him all the way. As Christianity starts to explode, we see another problem. Factions! Acts 18 is a book worth meditating on....

Paul goes to India? It fictitious of course, but what might it have been like? How would Paul approach the Indian culture? Acts provides all of the information we need... we don't have to guess. To dig deeper into how this mi...

This podcast is a little different. It is a peak under the hood really. I don't want to pretend that this podcast is the definitive commentary on the Bible. It is not! If you're listening to this Podcast, you are seeing the a...

We have seen God working through Paul for quite some time. Let's take the time to recap his last 20-25 years. It's easy to blow through 20 chapters of Acts and not recognize that we are walking with Paul to bring the message ...

In my research on Paul, I've found this thread of anti-Paul sentiment that can be a bit unnerving. What I didn't like, is many go with that gut-feeling without digging into the nature of Paul's (perhaps flawed) character. Thi...

As I have dug deeper into scripture, I've heard all of the arguments of salvation by faith alone. If you go deep, this is a red herring and I think a very dangerous message! Jesus commands Baptism. For those who argue the Thi...

There is nothing more fun than watching an excited Christian explain something that he considers revelation. I'm a little torn on the idea of predicting rapture dates. I err on the side of readiness. STILL - people that do th...

There are so many dates, so many interpretations. What does the text actually say? You don't really need to dig for it. 1 Thessalonians 4, Matthew 24, and Revelation 3:10 all hint at a rapture. BUT - interpretations abound an...

As we see Acts 21 and 22 unfold, I'm reminded that this is not a one off sort of event. The clash of religions, here between the Jews and the Gentiles, unfolds in history. It's amazing how much religious strife and friction h...

I know! I said not to sweat the rapture, but I can't leave it alone! I DON'T KNOW when or even "if" and the anticipation is killing me! It's like being a kid waiting for Christmas day! You remember that? When you stayed up al...

As I'm podcasting through Acts, it struck me how little has changed. Reflecting on the growing tensions in the world, it's interesting to see how people see Christianity as a threat. A whisper of Christianity in North Korea c...

It's not often easy to pick up the meaning of what Jesus was saying. That has a lot to do with historical and cultural context. This movie is such a gem, I did not want to let it go until I went a little deeper. Often, we get...

Think of this podcast as the cliff notes for the movie Prophetic Convergence (find it on YouTube). The reliability and accuracy of Bible Prophecy suggests (at least to me) that you cannot ignore what the Bible prophesies abou...

If you've been following, we seen 3-4 rapture theories. They never sit right with me and I started asking some deeper questions. This production comes from trying to reconcile Old and New Testament prophecy with some brow rai...

This is a commentary on a message delivered by Brian and Lauren Hinkle that I think can resonate with each of us. How do you deal with the hardships, the difficult times... those times where your only thought is "I need this ...

If you listened to the last podcast (Through the Wilderness), it dovetails nicely with Paul's last journey in Acts. Paul forges ahead on an epic adventure to get to Rome. This is quintessential Paul on his last physical journ...

News of new discoveries under Giza Pyramids, columns that go perhaps miles deep underground, has surfaced all over the web including Rogan's podcast, YouTube and everywhere else. There is a fascination that could have some de...

I started thinking more deeply about the discovery under Giza and basically just came to the conclusion that this is just another story in the tapestry of the things that got us here! I think is fair to at least try to connec...
