Hey friends! Welcome back to The Holy Chit-Chat — your weekly walk through the weird, wild, and sometimes what-on-earth stories of the Bible. This week, we're diving into Genesis 19, and let us tell you… this one’s heavy.

We’re talking fire from the sky, a city gone wild, angels showing up like secret agents, Lot being kind of the worst, and a wife who turns into salt because she looked over her shoulder. Oh, and if that wasn’t enough, the last few verses are some of the most uncomfortable in all of Genesis (yeah… we talk about that too).

In this episode:

Why were the men of Sodom so obsessed with the visitors?

What was Lot thinking offering up his daughters?

Why did God destroy the city and only save Lot and his family?

What's up with Lot’s wife, and is “looking back” really about glancing behind you?

And yes… we go there with the cave scene at the end. We had to.

We know—it’s a lot. But we’re here to read it honestly, wrestle with it openly, and see what God might be saying through it all.

Key takeaway? Even when everything’s on fire, literally and metaphorically, God still extends mercy. Sometimes it looks like angels dragging you out of town by the hand.

🔥 Heads-up: This episode deals with mature themes—might not be the best one for little ears.

📝 Read along: Genesis 19

Thanks for tuning in. We’ll catch you next week for Genesis 20 — where Abraham does that thing again.

Ten episodes in and we’re still somehow unsupervised. 🙃 This week, we’re cracking open Genesis 17 and 18—where God shows up with some big promises, Abraham gets a new name and a very sharp command (literally), and Sarah finds out she’s gonna be a mom at 90... and laughs in God's face. (Bold move ma'am.)

Here’s what’s going down:

God tells Abraham, “Walk before me faithfully”—and then immediately follows that with, “Oh, and every male needs to be circumcised.”

Sarah gets the world’s most delayed pregnancy announcement, and her response? Sarcastic laughter. Girl, same but... you're talking to God...

Three mysterious visitors drop in like ancient Uber Eats customers, and Abraham throws a very extra dinner party.

Plus, as always, we go on some truly unhinged rabbit trails, including:

Brooke's learnings from some pretty smart dudes over the past week.

How that circumcision thing may have gone.

And a pretty bold conversation with the Lord

Faith in uncertainty

God's promises and covenants

Trust vs. impatience

Hagar’s story and God’s compassion

This special "mid-week" episode on The Holy Chit-Chat, we're diving into the aftermath of Easter Sunday and asking the big question: Are we putting enough emphasis on what Easter really means? Spoiler alert—probably not.

In this episode, we talk about:

Why Easter shouldn't be a one-Sunday-a-year kind of thing

How inviting people to church should be a lifestyle, not just a holiday move

Why scare tactics and "hellfire and brimstone" approaches do WAY more harm than good

The power of real genuine community in the church matters for spiritual growth

Why having people who challenge your faith are actually a really great thing

And how the crucifixion and resurrection story should be on repeat throughout the year—not just read once and shelve it for next Easter

It’s a laid-back but honest convo about how Easter should shape our everyday lives, not just our Sunday outfits. So whether you’re still snacking on chocolate eggs or already moved on, grab your coffee (or whatever you're sipping) and hang out with us—we’re talking real faith, real growth, and how to keep the resurrection front and center all year long.

🎧 Tune in, reflect, and maybe rethink how you approach both your faith and your community.

This week on The Holy Chit-Chat, humanity tries to build a giant tower... and God hits the divine “nope” button. Things get weird, languages get scrambled, and suddenly we're following a guy named Abram on a wild road trip with camels, Pharaohs, and some questionable sibling fibs. Genesis 11–13 has drama, divine detours, and the first steps of a promise that’s bigger than Babel.

In this episode of The Holy Chit-Chat, we explore Genesis 9–10—the covenant with Noah, the origins of nations, and lots of names we're not too good at pronouncing...

Plus, we dig into how different Bible translations shape our understanding of Scripture. Why do some words hit harder in one version than another? Let’s talk about it.

Grab your floaties because in this episode of The Holy Chit-Chat, we're diving into the story of a guy named Noah who built a big ol' boat and essentially had his own personal zoo that yes... included "dinosaurs". But wait... before that... we have to have a chat about the Nephilim.

Dive into Genesis 6-8 with us. There's a bit to unpack!

Special mid-week episode! A little chat about what Bible story we'd want to witness and what we're up to ✨RIGHT NOW✨ ... we're in Western North Carolina rebuilding houses. Listen to stories from our last two trips 💕

Continuing in Genesis, we jump into chapter 3 with "the fall" where everyone decides to play the blame game. From chapter 3 into chapter 4, we see a lot of adults acting a lot like children. Then in chapter 5 we chat about some pretty old dudes. Except for one... he just straight up disappeared at the young age of 365! Yep... he was a young buck.

Let's chat about the book of Genesis and come dive into chapters 1 and 2 with us. We talk about how bad we are at geography, epiphanies before v. 6, dinosaurs, vegetarians, and if Adam had a belly button or not.
