  • Episode 19: The Fall of Jerusalem and Matthew 23:37-24:35
    2024/06/02

    Today Adam and Matthew discuss more material that was left out of Sunday's sermon. This material relates to the historical narrative around what exactly happened to the city of Jerusalem and the temple in 70 AD. What is it about the fall of the temple to the Zealots, and of the city to the Roman General Titus, that makes these events as a whole a good candidate for the fulfillment of Jesus' predictions in Matthew 23:37-24:35?

    [Note: We haven't marked this episode as "explicit," but just know that there are descriptions of violent acts in this episode that might not be appropriate for little ones.]

  • Episode 17: Technology Is Changing Us
    2024/01/10

    Technology inevitably has an impact on the way we think and relate to others. Decades into our own experiments with computers and the internet, researchers have begun to gather data on what that technology is doing to us. Anecdotally, we know that the internet is changing how we relate, how we speak, and how we work. As Christians, then, what are we willing to do to make sure that our minds our sharp, and our children are ready to use their minds to glorify God?

     

    On this episode, Adam, Matthew, Travis, and Erik discuss just what it is what we are doing, and what wisdom dictates we ought to do to press back against the way our technology is shaping us.
