We take some time to review a sermon on Isaiah 44

This episode explores the devotional-experiential hermeneutic—a system where personal experience shapes how Scripture is read. We examine its roots, how it misuses verses like Hebrews 4:12, and the consequences of letting emotion override biblical meaning.

I continue our discussion about how to train AI

Can you trust AI to help with theology, Bible study, or sermon prep?

From setting standards to demanding accuracy, and from biblical interpretation to sermon critique, this episode equips you to use AI faithfully, wisely, and critically. Because the goal isn’t to let AI speak for you—the goal is to train it to serve the tr...

In this episode, we explore one of the most powerful and paradoxical passages in all of Scripture — Paul’s “Fool’s Speech” from 2 Corinthians 11 and 12. What does it mean to boast in weakness?

Get ready for an uncomfortable but necessary confrontation with the gospel of weakness.

Catchy, fun, and full of ache.
