We're talking Christmas on this Rabbit trail. Join us as we dive into the book of Luke 2:8-20 and talk about the Christmas story. We wonder about the shepherds, if the angels were a choir, and about the implications of the passage for our trust of the Bible. We will also answer a listener question! We hope you have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

We go running down the trails this week into conversations of surrender. We wonder together if the way Mary and Joseph had to surrender differently is based somewhat in our gender? We ask what's the difference in locus of control and surrender? We also look over the Magnificant (Luke 1:46-52) and answer a listener's question! Join us as we get running down those trails. 

The team is back and after some catch up we chase the rabbits through each verse of Mark 6:1-6 when Jesus goes home to Nazareth. We look at possible troubles in his family, false gospels, and answer a great question by our listeners! 

Fellow Rabbit Chasers, with Brent out we try something new. This week we dive into Mark 5:21-43 and take it verse by verse, making interesting observations and asking the odd questions the text brings up. Join us as the rabbits take off from this passage and head down some fun trails.

Halloween may be behind us, but this week we the rabbits run into a Biblical horror story. Jump in as we talk about demonic storms, unclean spirit hordes and if a believer can be possessed.

Hey everyone, we are running after questions about sowers. We have some fun talking about the stories of Jesus and dive into the question of if once your saved are you always saved? And we look at some questions from you all!

What does the ease or difficulty in making friends possibly say about someone?

We need to “practice” upkeep on our friendships:
