  • 1523. What Is the Soul? Patrick Holley on Psychology, Theology & Inner Transformation

    What is the soul? Is it different from our thoughts, emotions, and body? And how does God transform our inner life?

    In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb talks with GlossaHouse author Patrick Holley about his book Jesus and the Soul: How Our Spirit Transforms Our Mind and Emotions. Together, they explore Christian anthropology, psychology, emotions, automatic thoughts, temptation, the will, and how believers can engage their inner world in a healthy and biblical way.

    Patrick brings together theology, counseling, and spiritual formation to help us think carefully about the relationship between the Spirit of God, the human soul, the mind, emotions, and the body.

  • 1522. Covenant Isn’t What You Think It Is | Dr T. Michael W. Halcomb

    Covenant is often treated like a spiritual contract: terms, conditions, and benefits. But in Scripture, covenant is much bigger than paperwork.

    In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb explains how biblical covenant is rooted in relationship, loyalty, kingship, and allegiance. From the Hebrew word berit to the Greek diatheke, covenant language carries the weight of God’s kingdom, Jesus’ reign, and the call to belong wholly to the King.

    Jesus didn’t merely call people to “invite Him into their hearts.” He announced the Kingdom of God and called people to repent, follow, and pledge allegiance.

  • 1519. The Lie That Still Controls How You See God | Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb

    What if the biggest problem in Genesis 3 wasn’t just disobedience… but deception?

    In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb uncovers the serpent’s strategy in the Garden of Eden—not to deny God, but to distort His character. The lie? That God was holding something back.

    But when humanity took the bait, they didn’t become like God… they became afraid, ashamed, and hidden.

    And God’s response? It wasn’t rage—it was pursuit.

    This episode explores the deeper meaning behind the fall, the first hint of grace in Scripture, and what it reveals about who God truly is.

  • 1518. Why Christianity Feels So Divided (And What We’re Missing) | with Dr. Paul J. Morrison

    Why does Christianity feel so divided today?

    If there’s one Spirit and one Church, why are there so many denominations, disagreements, and tensions—even among sincere believers?

    In this conversation, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb sits down with theologian, pastor, and ethicist Paul J. Morrison to explore:

    • Why Christians disagree—and what actually matters most

    • What the Holy Spirit is (and isn’t) doing in the Church today

    • The idea of theological triage (what’s essential vs. secondary)

    • Whether the Spirit can be at work in traditions we disagree with

    • How to pursue real unity without compromising truth

    This is an honest, thoughtful, and much-needed conversation for anyone wrestling with division in the Church.

  • 1517. The Question That Broke Humanity (Genesis 3 Explained) | Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb

    The fall of humanity didn’t begin with a bite—it began with a question.

    In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb explores Genesis 3 and the serpent’s subtle strategy: not denying God’s existence, but distorting His character.

    “Did God really say?”

    That question planted doubt, reframed trust as restriction, and introduced the idea that God might be holding something back. Before any action was taken, God’s word was already being reshaped in the human mind.

    This episode dives into:

    • Why the fall started with suspicion, not rebellion

    • How the serpent reframed God’s authority

    • The real meaning of sin as treason, not just rule-breaking

    • Why autonomy (self-rule) is at the heart of the problem

    This isn’t just an ancient story—it’s a pattern we still see today.

  • 1516. Inside Ephesians 4: Greek Texts, Unity, and Translation | Sabbatical Insider w/ Dr. Fred Long

    In this episode of Sabbatical Insider, Dr. Fredrick J. Long continues documenting his translation work through the book of Ephesians using the Patriarchal Greek text tradition.

    This episode explores Ephesians 4:1–6, the unity of the Spirit, the sevenfold “one” affirmations, and a fascinating textual variant that may shape how we understand Paul’s declaration that God is “over all, through all, and in all things.”

    Along the way, Dr. Long reflects on:

    • biblical translation and manuscript traditions

    • humility, patience, and forbearance in the church

    • the unifying work of Christ among God’s people

    • the theology of God sustaining all things

    • planting trees, long-term cultivation, and spiritual formation

    This ongoing series offers an inside look at the real-time process of biblical scholarship, theological reflection, and sabbatical research.

  • 1515. The Real Threat to the Church? (Not What You Think) | 1 Cor 1:10–11 | The Corinth Conversations #6

    What if the greatest threat to the church isn’t culture, politics, or persecution… but Christians themselves?

    In this episode of The Corinth Conversations, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb and Dr. Fredrick J. Long dive into 1 Corinthians 1:10–11, where Paul confronts a deeply divided church—not one under attack from the outside, but one fracturing from within.

    They explore:

    - What Paul really means by “unity”

    - The difference between unity vs. uniformity

    - When division is actually necessary

    - How rivalry, pride, and identity fracture the church

    - Why a false version of Jesus leads to confusion and compromise

    “Are we actually under attack… or are we just attacking each other?”

    This passage is just as relevant today as it was in Corinth.

  • 1514. What “Faith” Actually Means (Greek Explained) | Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb

    Is faith just believing the right things… or is it something more?

    In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb challenges a common assumption: that faith is merely intellectual agreement. Digging into the Greek word pistis, he shows that biblical faith is far deeper—it’s about trust, loyalty, and ultimately allegiance.

    From Romans 10 to James 2, the New Testament presents faith not as private belief, but as a public, embodied commitment to Jesus as King.

    👉 If even demons “believe,” what does real faith actually look like?This episode explores:

    - Why “faith = belief” is too thin

    - The meaning of pistis and pisteuō

    - Jesus as Kyrios (Lord) in a Roman context

    - The connection between faith, obedience, and allegiance

    - What it really means to live under Christ’s rule

    📌 Faith isn’t just what you think—it’s who you belong to.
