The Bible Guys episodes

  • Can God Still Use Me?

    We tend to remember David with a slingshot in his hand. His full story is a little more complicated.

    This week, Jeff and Chris walk through the life of King David: shepherd, giant killer, fugitive, king, worshiper - and a man whose choices caused tremendous harm. Why does the Bible include the ugly parts of its heroes’ lives? And what does being “a man after God’s own heart” actually mean?

    With plenty of back-and-forth along the way, they explore the waiting years, the dangers of unchecked power, and David’s response when he’s confronted with his sin. It’s an honest conversation about repentance, consequences, and a faithful God who works through broken people.

  • Where is God in a Broken World?

    A few dad jokes turn into a pretty big conversation this week: why does the world feel so far from the way it should be?

    Jeff and Chris head back to the beginning in Genesis 1-3, where the Bible starts with a good creation before things unravel. Together, they explore freedom, temptation, shame, and our tendency to question whether God really knows what’s best for us.

    They also follow the bigger story of a God who keeps pursuing people, even when they hide from Him—and who promises that brokenness won’t have the final word.

    It’s a conversation about the mess we’re living in, the choices we make, and why there’s still reason to hope.

  • Bible Guys Classics: Matthew 6:5–15

    From honoring God’s name to asking for daily provision, forgiveness, and protection, this prayer puts God’s priorities ahead of our own. Jeff and Chris explore how Jesus’ model can reshape the way we approach prayer today.

    If prayer sometimes feels repetitive, confusing, or one-sided, this episode will help you return to the simple framework Jesus gave us.

  • Bible Guys Classics: Luke 18:9–14
    Two men went to pray. One bragged about how good he was. The other simply asked God for mercy. Jesus makes it clear which prayer mattered.

    In this episode of The Bible Guys, Jeff and Chris unpack the parable of the Pharisee and the tax collector in Luke 18. They discuss pride, humility, repentance, and why our posture before God matters.

    If your prayer life has become routine—or if you’ve ever caught yourself comparing your faith to someone else’s—this episode offers an important reminder about approaching God honestly.

    Jeff and Chris explore Luke 22 and Jesus’ prayer before the cross, discussing obedience, suffering, surrender, and trusting God when His path is harder than the one we would choose.

    If you’re facing something you desperately wish God would change, this episode will challenge you to consider what it means to trust Him even when the answer isn’t what you wanted.
