Using a 1988 sermon as our starting point, this episode asks a disturbing question: what if the sermon itself is part of the problem? Before debating methods or results, we examine how Scripture is being used—and what that re...

In John 5:28–29, Jesus makes one of His most staggering claims: all who are in the graves will hear His voice and come forth—some to the resurrection of life, and some to the resurrection of damnation. In this episode, we exa...

We go back to 1 Peter 3:21 to figure out what Baptism the verse is referring to

The Flood and Baptism takes a careful look at 1 Peter 3:18–22—the only New Testament passage that directly connects the story of Noah's flood to Christian theology. Instead of repeating the familiar claim that "the ark is a p...

We continue our study of the book, Introduction to Systematic Theology. In this episode we begin looking at Genesis 6-9

In 1974, a preacher warned that Christians were already abandoning real Bible study in favor of shallow preaching and random reading. In this episode, we examine that sermon and discover how accurately it describes the state ...

Churches in America close every week, usually quietly and without much notice. In this episode, we look at what it actually means when a church comes to an end. Using a recently featured "sermon" that is really a congregation...

Daniel 12:2 is the first—and last—clear Old Testament passage to explicitly teach resurrection and judgment after death. So why does such a crucial doctrine appear so late in Israel's Scriptures?

Ruth 2 does not move with speeches or miracles—it moves with a workday. In this episode, we walk through Ruth 2:4–7 as Boaz arrives at his fields, notices a stranger, and asks a simple question that begins to shift the direct...

Is SermonAudio launching their own AI?

We look at the first passage about judgement after death.

It’s 3 AM and I turn on the microphone.

AI is no longer "coming someday." It's here, and it's already reshaping how people learn, think, write, and even read the Bible. A recent Christianity Today article claims that AI represents a new form of "digital gnosticism"...

A listener asks for book recommendations on hermeneutics—and in the same email raises questions about continuationism, prophecy, and "hearing the voice of God." That combination exposes a serious problem: if God is still givi...

A Christian website is now publishing articles generated by a "theology AI" that claims to give answers grounded entirely in God's Word and even "the meaning God Himself intended." In this episode, we examine what a theology ...

More possible proof of eternal torment

A look at what can be easily proven about eternal torment.

Ruth goes to glean simply to survive. This episode walks through Ruth 2:2–3 and shows how God's purposes move forward through ordinary work, ordinary risk, and quiet providence rather than dramatic miracles. Part of The Ruth ...

We continue our review of a sermon about Annihilationism

We begin a review of a sermon about Annihilationism

This episode steps back and tells the story of a project that should never have worked: no studio, no editing, no co-host, no schedule, no production, no optimization — just a microphone, a laptop, and unfiltered theology in ...

We listen to Kirk Cameron respond to the controversy

We continue to listen to the podcast episode that sparked a debate about the doctrine of hell and about Kirk Cameron
