“Ever since the days of your ancestors, you have scorned my decrees and failed to obey them. Now return to me, and I will return to you,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies. “But you ask, ‘How can we return when we have never gone away?’”
‭‭~ Malachi‬ ‭3‬:‭7‬ ‭NLT

Hey guys! Welcome Back to the GraftedIn podcast. Tune in this episode as the lads continue on with their deep dive into the Book of Malachi. This episode they’ll be discussing Chapters 3&4.

Moving on from Warning the Elders of the Church, Chapters 3 & 4 focus primarily on the relationship between God as Judge, the people’s lack of repentance and the reasons or excuses why they believe they shouldn’t bother following God anymore.

Tithes and offerings and curses for not tithing or ‘robbing God’ are a big theme in Chapter 3. As well as the decrease of morality that God calls the people out for, the attitudes surrounding what could lead to a descent of character are made evident by the responses given in the text, and so tune in! As the lads comment on these dialogues and discuss the implications it has on Christians TODAY. 


Based on the scriptures, the fellas also unpack Gods attitude towards repentance, his eagerness to not just judge the wicked people of the world but also to show compassion and mercy to those who call on His name!

“When the Lord your God goes ahead of you and destroys the nations and you drive them out and live in their land,
do not fall into the trap of following their customs and worshiping their gods. Do not inquire about their gods, saying, ‘How do these nations worship their gods? I want to follow their example.’
You must not worship the Lord your God the way the other nations worship their gods, for they perform for their gods every detestable act that the Lord hates. They even burn their sons and daughters as sacrifices to their gods.
~ Deuteronomy 12:29-31 NLT


ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMMMAAASSSSSS IIISSSSSSS .......


'Tis the season everyone!


Welcome Back to the GraftedIn Podcast.


This Episode the boys sit down to discuss the obvious yet very controversial topic of Christmas. Controversial only in recent decades as, one could argue, what used to be a 'Christian' holiday, is now very much secular and non-religious. This includes the way we celebrate, the symbols, the songs, the trees, the lights, the traditions etc. The biggest issue though is that, this argument is very much valid and truthful as unfortunately, the church has gone away from biblical doctrine (To 'not conform to the patterns of this world...' - Rom 12:1), consequentially there really is no obvious difference as to how the "Church" celebrates Christmas and the rest of the world does.

This unsettling truth raises a few questions then...

• What is the true meaning of Christmas? Is there a definite answer?
• Should Christians celebrate Christmas like the world e.g. Christmas Trees, Santa, Reindeer, Elves, Gift Giving etc
• What does the Bible say about Christmas and/or Celebrations
• What, if any, Christmas Traditions are acceptable/unacceptable?
• Should we celebrate on the 25th December?

These questions have sadly divided the Church and it's members overtime and as a result, this division has only led to an increase of attacks from not only the enemy but also the secular non-believing world on the true purpose of Christianity in Western Society.

So tune in this episode as the boys give you their answers to these questions whilst also discussing how Christmas was celebrated in their homes as kids and what it looks like now!

“Listen to me and make up your minds to honor my name,” says the Lord of Heaven’s Armies, “or I will bring a terrible curse against you. I will curse even the blessings you receive. Indeed, I have already cursed them, because you have not taken my warning to heart.”
‭‭~ Malachi‬ ‭2‬:‭2‬ ‭NLT‬‬


Hey guys! Welcome Back to the GraftedIn podcast. Tune in this episode as the lads continue on with their deep dive into the Book of Malachi. This episode they’ll be discussing  Chapter 2. 

Similar to the beginning of the book, God pronounces a very profound and awful judgement upon the people of Israel but specifically this time towards the ‘priests’ or ‘Levites.’ In modern day terms, the pastors; bishops; elders; board members etc.

Based on the scriptures, the fellas unpack Gods attitude towards leadership, his tendency to lean more harshly on the teachers of the word, how it is we can discern False Teachers from the True ones, and why we should even bother!

“Go ahead, beg God to be merciful to you! But when you bring that kind of offering, why should he show you any favor at all?” asks the Lord of Heaven’s Armies.”
~ ‭‭Malachi‬ ‭1‬:‭9‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Some questions to ‘Christian’s’ or ‘Church Attenders’…

• Do we think that the Old Testament doesn’t apply to us anymore?
• Do we believe that God changed his mind?
• Do we believe that the standards are different for us in the ‘New Covenant’?
• Do we think we can learn anything from the Stories of Gods Provision, Miracles, Judgment and Mercy that are rampant throughout the OT?

Join the lads as they breakdown the book of Malachi and discuss how they found it to be a perfect Summary of the OT (laws; sacrifices; judgments etc) and a prophetic look into the coming NT.

P.S. Just like with the Book of Jude, there’s no coincidences why Malachi is the last of the OT, and is before the Gospels.

“Dear friends, I had been eagerly planning to write to you about the salvation we all share. But now I find that I must write about something else, urging you to defend the faith that God has entrusted once for all time to his holy people.”
‭‭~ Jude‬ ‭1‬:‭3‬ ‭NLT‬‬


Hey guys! Welcome to the GraftedIn podcast. 


Not many people can claim to be of royal blood. Even less can claim to be an heir to a royal inheritance. But VERY FEW could claim to be blood related to Jesus!…And in a society where your status and standing depended on whether you were the first born or blood related to someone and therefore the a beneficiary of inheritance and wealth, one could easily imagine that being the closest relative to ever exist to the Son of God, the Messiah, the “Son of Man”, it may leave you feeling some sort of way about your chances of being accepted into heaven. Dare I say, it could make you believe you were to be specially absolved of sin, or specifically sought out and chased by God.

That’s absolutely NOT what we see here from Jude, the half brother of Jesus in his letter to the Churches. 
A measly 1 chapter book, full of wisdom, insight, warnings all covered in humility and reverence to his Lord, there’s alot to be extracted from this short text!

So we hope you guys enjoy hearing about how the lads found diving into the Book of Jude! 

P.S. there’s no coincidences as to why this book comes before the Book of Revelation…

And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit gave them utterance.
~ Acts 2:4 ESV

“And he said to them, “Go into all the world and proclaim the gospel to the whole creation.
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, but whoever does not believe will be condemned.
And these signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will cast out demons; they will speak in new tongues;”

Hey guys! Welcome to the GraftedIn podcast. 


Tongues. Tongues. Tongues. Have they ceased? Can we speak in them anymore? SHOULD we pray to speak in them? When is it appropriate? Is it ever inappropriate? Does being ‘baptized in the Holy Spirit’ mean the same thing? Does it make you more saved? A better Christian? Is speaking in tongues a gift for all or a gift for a few? Is it a normal language or an angelic one? Does it sound like words or groans?

“There are different kinds of spiritual gifts, but the same Spirit is the source of them all…A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.”
~ ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭12‬:4-‭7‬ ‭NLT‬‬


Do we all have a spiritual gift? How do we know if we have one or not? What if I don’t like the ones I think I have? Do I have to practice at them?

As Paul says in Romans and 1 Corinthians, we’re all part of one body. The body of Christ. Working indirectly and directly together to achieve the and goal so how can we possibly say I’m not worthy or someone else isn’t worthy?

Tune in this episode as the lads breakdown a few of the questions and open up the floor to the ‘Gifts’ talk.

“Away with your noisy hymns of praise! I will not listen to the music of your harps. Instead, I want to see a mighty flood of justice,
an endless river of righteous living.”
~ ‭‭Amos‬ ‭5‬:‭23‬-‭24‬ ‭NLT‬‬


As Christian’s its easy to get stuck in the rhythm and routine of going to church; serving; hearing the sermon; saying the occasional amen then standing up to pray at the end and leaving.
Now there’s nothing particularly WRONG with all this and doing it habitually, unless of course, our hearts are far from God and our intentions are disingenuous and self seeking.

Unfortunately this is how the Church has started to act over the last few decades and yet the Bible, such as the minor prophet book of Amos, highlights to us that it’s really not that new of an issue for people of faith, that the same excuses or ‘reasons’ for our insincerity are all recycled garbage but most intriguingly, that God is very much aware of and appalled by our complacent, luke warm, (kaka poopoo) attitude.

Tune in this episode as the boys breakdown the Book of Amos and discuss how they found it to be not only very relevant for todays Church (with a capital C) but also one of the more interesting and yet confronting books in all the Old Testament.
