In this second episode of Series Book Month, hosts Greg and Nathan shift from the sweeping realms of Tolkien's fantasy to the shadowy corridors of horror fiction—focusing on the works of Stephen King, the modern master of the genre. But what place, if any, does horror have in the Christian imagination?

This week, Greg and Nathan explore how horror—far from being mere entertainment—can actually deepen our understanding of sin, evil, judgment, and grace. With thoughtful reflection and biblical grounding, they discuss how horror exposes the brokenness of the world, the desperate human need for redemption, and the paths to discovery.

Far from glorifying evil, a well-crafted horror story often reveals the very thing Christians are called to confront: the horror of a world without God—and the hope that remains because of Him.

Whether you're a longtime Stephen King reader or a skeptic of the genre, this episode offers a surprising, thought-provoking look at why engaging with dark stories can actually point us toward the light.

Welcome to books, belief & beyond, hosts Greg and Nathan dive deep into the pages of powerful stories that have shaped hearts, cultures, and imaginations. Today's episode, they explore the themes, worldviews, and wisdom found in the beloved books of Tolkien. His stories have lasting moral and spiritual weight and Greg and Nathan begin their literary journey with the master of myth and world-building. They explore how Tolkien’s creation story in The Silmarillion echoes and diverges from the Biblical creation account, unpacking the theological and imaginative depth behind his legendarium. Along the way, they reflect on the enduring power of old stories with clear heroes and villains—and how such tales can shape a person’s heart, character, and view of the world.

What does it mean that humanity was made to "have dominion"? In this fourth episode of our Imago Dei series, Greg and Nathan unpack the kingly calling at the heart of being made in God’s image. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture paints a royal picture of humanity—not as tyrants or owners, but as vice-regents under the true King.

We’ll explore how the Bible uses royal language to describe human purpose, how sin has distorted our rule, and how Jesus—our Servant King—restores and redefines our authority through grace. From stewarding the earth to resisting evil and creating beauty, this episode is a deep dive into what it looks like to reign in life the way God intended.

Whether you feel powerless or prideful, this episode will remind you: you were made to rule—but only under the rule of Christ.

You were made for more than survival—you were made for responsible rulership. Through Christ, we don’t grasp at power; we receive grace to serve. Kingship, in God’s Kingdom, always looks like love with authority and order shaped by mercy.

Join Greg & Nathan as they continue their discussion in their series the Imago Dei. What if bearing God's image isn’t just about who we are—but also about what we’re called to do? In this third episode of The Imago Dei series, Greg and Nathan dive into the priestly role of humanity, asking: What does it mean that part of bearing God's image is being a priest?

Drawing from key Scriptures like 1 Peter 2:9, Genesis 2:15, and Exodus 19:5–6, they explore how every believer is invited to draw near to God—and to help others do the same. From Eden to the cross, from sacred temples to ordinary lives, the priestly calling runs deep: to intercede, to steward sacred space, and to carry God's presence into a broken world.

In this episode, they discuss:

• The surprising priestly parallels in the Garden of Eden

• How Old Testament priests shape our understanding of spiritual life today

• Why prayer is more than a quiet moment—it’s priestly work

• What it means to be part of a royal priesthood in Christ

• How Jesus, our Great High Priest, redefines our identity and mission

• And how living as priests impacts everything from our parenting to our pain

Whether you're in ministry or the marketplace, a seasoned believer or exploring faith, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to see your life as sacred—and your presence as a vessel of God's mercy.

What does it really mean to be prophetic? In Episode 2 of our Imago Dei series, Greg and Nathan explore the powerful, often misunderstood role of the prophet—not as a fortune-teller, but as a meaning-maker.

Big Idea: Bearing God's image means helping others interpret life through the lens of Scripture.

Through a thoughtful discussion, they unpack what it means to assign meaning to events, emotions, and moments in a world hungry for clarity. From the calling of ancient prophets to the quiet, everyday witness of modern believers, this episode explores how we, as image-bearers of God, can speak truth, bring hope, and reframe reality for those around us.

Topics include:

• The true biblical role of a prophet

• How the prophetic function reflects the Imago Dei

• Why all Christians share this calling today

• What it looks like to "assign meaning" in everyday conversations

• How Jesus perfectly embodies this role

• What this means for your life and voice as a follower of Christ

Whether you're new to the concept or eager to go deeper, this conversation will encourage you to see your everyday words and presence as part of a sacred calling—to help others see God more clearly in the story of their lives.

Listen now and rediscover the prophetic dignity woven into your humanity.

What does it really mean to be made in the image of God?

In this series, Imago Dei, Greg and Nathan dive into one of the most foundational truths of the Bible: that every human being is created in the image and likeness of God (Genesis 1:26–27). But what does that actually mean? How does it shape our identity, purpose, and relationships?

Through honest conversation and practical insight, they tackle key questions like:

• How are humans different from animals and angels?

• What’s the difference between being like God and being God?

• What does the image of God say about our worth—even in a broken world?

• How does it affect the way we relate to others, steward creation, and find our purpose?

• And how does Jesus show us what it really means to live as true image-bearers?

Whether you’re new to theology or looking for a deeper understanding of your identity in Christ, this episode lays the groundwork for a powerful journey through the doctrine of the Imago Dei.
