Biblical illiteracy is rampant in the Body of Messiah today, and a major culprit is the religious language found in our very own Bibles!

These too-familiar terms lead people to gloss over the true meaning and filtering everything through denominational assumptions rather than the text itself. But what if replacing just a handful of them with clearer, everyday language could force a fresh look at key biblical concepts and restore an accurate presentation of God’s word? In this episode, Kevin shares his five favorite examples of Christian terminology that create those barriers—and the clearer alternatives that cut straight to the heart of Scripture.
