You ever notice how the Jesus most folks talk about sounds more like a soft‑spoken life coach than the Lion of Judah? Real gentle. Real polished. Real… safe.

But the Jesus of Scripture? He wasn’t safe. Not by a long shot.

This morning I’m introducing something different — a new audio commentary series called “The Real Jesus Through the Bible.” It’s a raw, unfiltered look at the Christ of Scripture, not the cartoon version served up by comfortable Christianity. And instead of a monologue, I’ve brought two voices into the mix to help you hear Him in a new way:

* Tank —Gritty, no‑nonsense, a man who sounds like he grew up with dust on his boots and calluses on his hands.

* Carla — a sweet Southern matriarch who knows her Scripture and isn’t afraid to call you “sweetheart” right before she drops a theological hammer.

Together, they walk through the introduction to this commentary and ask the question we’ve been afraid to ask: What if the Jesus you follow has never made you uncomfortable? Because if that’s true… you’ve been following the wrong One.

Tank talks about a Messiah who sweated under a desert sun, smelled like hard work, and braided a whip when religion got in the way. Carla reminds us, in that soft drawl, that nobody in the Bible ever met Jesus and stayed the same. They either bowed, followed, or tried to kill Him. That’s what holiness does. It divides. It exposes. It awakens.

This audio is just the beginning. It’s a taste. A spark. A warning shot. The full commentary will be a collection of these conversations—chapter by chapter—each one peeling back the layers of the safe Jesus we’ve inherited and revealing the dangerous, tender, holy Christ of Scripture. Tank and Carla will be there every step, one challenging you, the other consoling you, both pointing you to the real Son of God.

If you’re ready to meet the Christ who overturns tables, confronts sin, and calls men into battle—click below and listen. It’s free for the next three days. After that, it goes behind the paywall along with the rest of the series.
