“I can do all things.” “Judge not.” “Money is the root of all evil.” “Turn the other cheek.” “God has plans to prosper you.”

The Bible says all of those things…right?

For our Season 1 finale, we are taking on some of the most quoted (and most misquoted) verses in Scripture. We dig into what these passages actually mean, why context matters, and how pulling a verse away from the surrounding text can completely distort its message.

There are jokes, motivational posters take a few casualties, and the Dutch somehow get dragged into it....but the point is serious: even Satan quoted Scripture. Knowing a verse is not the same thing as understanding it.

As we close out Season 1, we are also looking ahead to Season 2, where we will begin chasing the threads woven throughout the Bible and discovering how the whole story points us toward Christ.

Open your Bible. Read the next verse. Context matters.

Episode 14 is in the books, and this one gets into the weeds in the best way.

We had the privilege of sitting down with our pastor, Brad Patterson over at FBC Lavon to talk through the SBC: what it is, what it does, why it matters, and why the recent conversation around women in church leadership has stirred up so much debate.

We discuss the proposed amendment vote, how Brad voted, why he voted that way, and then we do what should always come first: we open Scripture.

This episode walks through women in leadership, the role of pastors and elders, feminism, cultural pressure, slippery slopes in church leadership, and the deep importance of women in the life and mission of the church.

This isn’t a conversation about winning arguments. It’s about asking whether the church will be shaped by culture, tradition, preference, or the Word of God.

Hard topic. Honest conversation. Open Bible.

Adam hid behind fig leaves.

We hide behind everything else.

From Genesis to the Cross, the Bible tells one story: humanity running from God and God pursuing humanity anyway.

In this episode, we'll unpack Jesus' command to deny yourself, take up your cross, and follow Him and why the self we're protecting might be the very thing keeping us from the life we're looking for.

The first Adam hid because he was naked. The last Adam hung naked on a cross so we would never have to hide again.
