  • Exodus 24:8 Throwing Blood
    Exodus 24:8 is one of the most jarring verses in the Old Testament. Without warning, Moses throws blood on the people and declares, "Behold the blood of the covenant." No explanation. No softening. No emotional framing. Just blood, covenant, and obligation.

  • Did These Readings Belong Together?
    On Transfiguration Sunday, the lectionary paired Exodus 24:8–18 with Matthew 17:1–9—Sinai and the Mount of Transfiguration. But did those readings really belong together, or did the lectionary simply place them side by side and invite us to imagine a connection?

  • Farewell to the Alleluia
    Many Christians have never heard of "the Farewell to the Alleluia," and yet it may be one of the most theologically powerful moments in the liturgical year.

  • Valentine’s Day: Bleeds or Feels?
    February 14 once remembered a martyr — love that bleeds. Today it celebrates romance — love that feels. What happened? And what does that historical drift reveal about human love, divine love, and the gospel itself?

    Johann Gerhard does the opposite. Written in 1606, Sacred Meditations was once one of the most beloved devotional books in Lutheran history. Today almost no one reads it

  • The Older Brother Thesis
    Episode 1 begins our series Rethinking the Prodigal Son by examining the "older brother thesis" — the claim that the older brother is the central focus of Luke 15.

  • The Great Satan Hunt Pt 4
    The hunt continues. In Part 4 we examine Ezekiel 28:15–17 phrase by phrase. Trade, merchandise, violence, and judgment before kings—does this really sound like Satan, or a corrupt human ruler? We slow down, stay in context, and let the text speak for itself.

  • Hallmark Solomon
    Hallmark movies sanitize everything.
    Soft lighting. Clean characters. Happy endings. No messy reality.
    And sometimes… that's exactly how the church preaches the Bible.
