What are the "15 rules of hermeneutics" that preachers often reference—and do they actually exist? In this episode, we trace the origin of these so-called rules, examine their historical development, and carefully evaluate each one.
A sermon claims Isaiah 6 teaches how to experience "personal revival." But is that actually what the text is about? In this episode, we examine the passage carefully and ask whether "personal revival" comes from Scripture—or is being read into it.

Ephesians 5 presents a problem no one can easily solve. In Part 1, we saw the weight of its commands—and the reality that we don't live them. In this episode, we step back and examine the structure of Ephesians itself. And instead of resolving the tension… it only gets worse. So what are these commands actually doing?
A program about how people listen to sermons wrong… gets a basic historical fact wrong.
