The Last Meal Part 2 (1 Samuel 28 & 31)

Share a commentGod's silence can feel mysterious until you realize what King Saul refuses to face you can't demand closeness with God while you're actively protecting the sin you already know needs confession We walk through Saul's final descent and why his complaint God won't answer me isn't a puzzle it's a mirror Along the way we use a painfully funny illustration about a man hiding a lit cigarette from his pastor to expose how often we try to stuff disobedience out of sight while still asking for guidance comfort and clarity From there the story turns darker and stranger [... more]

Why the Son Submits to the Father Without Being Less God

The Trinity is three distinct persons and yet one Godhead but we still can't help but ask who's really in charge In this episode we continue our conversation on the Trinity by naming a few more historic heresies including Arianism the belief that the Son was created and subordinationism the belief that the Son while not created is still less than fully God From there we dig into a doctrine that's often misunderstood even by Christians the eternal functional subordination of the Son The Son submits to the Father not because He is lesser in being but because He chooses [... more]

Misled By A Misguided Heart Part 2 (1 Samuel 27, 29, 30)

Share a commentPanic loves to sound like wisdom It tells you to move fast trust your gut and do whatever it takes to feel safe again That's exactly where David is in Samuel to and we follow the chain reaction as his perfect plan seems to work at first then traps him conniving in enemy territory cornered into an unthinkable battle crushed by loss at Ziklag and finally corrected when he seeks God instead of his own instincts We talk through why listening to your heart can be dangerous especially when discouragement is twisting your thoughts into something that feels [... more]

Why Jesus Created the World From Nothing

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth from nothing and that detail matters more than it might seem If God had used pre-existing material the real question would just shift to who made that material Creation ex nihilo points to a Creator who needs nothing outside Himself In this episode we continue our Systematic Theology series by digging into the doctrine of creation why Scripture points to Jesus not just God in the abstract as the one who created everything why God created us at all when He didn't need to and how even Adam's brief loneliness [... more]

Why God's Sovereignty Is the Real Antidote to Worry
