In this episode of the ProveText Podcast, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb sits down with Dr. Paul D. Miller—professor of international affairs at Georgetown University, veteran of the war in Afghanistan, and author of The Religion of American Greatness: What’s Wrong with Christian Nationalism—to talk about Christian nationalism, patriotism, and faithful public engagement.What is Christian nationalism, and how is it different from healthy love of country? Can Christians bring their convictions into the public square without trying to “take the nation back for God”? What are the spiritual dangers when we fuse political identity with Christian faith?Whether you’re disillusioned with politics or tempted to pin your hope on it, this episode will help you think more clearly—and hopefully more Christianly—about public life.📚 Learn more about Dr. Miller’s work:– Buy The Religion of American Greatness here– Georgetown University faculty page for Dr. Paul D.

Most of us were taught to read the Bible as a story about me—my faith, my salvation, my walk with God. But Scripture wasn’t written to individuals. It was written to communities.

In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb unpacks the Group Lens—revealing how covenant, calling, identity, and even salvation were understood as we, not me. Once you see this lens, it changes how you read nearly every story in the Bible.

Did the Gospel exist before Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John? Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb sits down with Dr. Clint Burnett to trace the earliest Christian use of “gospel” in Paul’s letters—as a singular proclamation from God that is apocalyptic, centered on the Messiah event (death, burial, resurrection, ascension), eschatological, grounded in the Old Testament, and tied to Paul’s calling as apostle to the Gentiles.

We also talk about Romans 1 and 1 Corinthians 15 (“according to the Scriptures”), why “apocalyptic” ≠ doomsday, and how the earliest believers evangelized from the Old Testament.

What did Paul actually mean in 1 Timothy 2:9–15—adornment, “quietness,” authority, and being “saved through childbearing”? In this conversation, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb and Dr. Anessa Westbrook put the text back in Ephesus—with Artemis and the “new Roman wife”—to show how context changes everything.

Why does the Bible include so many genealogies? In this episode of The Lenses of Scripture, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb shows how these ancient “family trees” aren’t filler — they’re theology.

Through the Genealogy Lens, we see that God’s promises run through imperfect people, messy stories, and forgotten names — all woven into His plan of redemption.

👁️‍🗨️ Don’t skip the lists — look closer.

📖 Discover the beauty of God’s faithfulness through generations.

By learning to see Scripture through the right lenses — Gender, Geography, Generation, Group, and Genealogy — we begin to uncover layers of meaning that bring the text to life.

Join Dr. Halcomb as he invites you to go deeper, read smarter, and see Scripture through new eyes.
