  • Prophecy: Future Telling or Truth Telling?
    2024/10/02

    Join me to explore the true nature of biblical prophecy and challenge the common dispensationalist view of prophecy as future telling. Through examples from the Hebrew Bible and Revelation, we will see how prophecy focuses on calling people back to God's covenant and priorities, offering conditional future insight, and comfort during exile. This episode will encourage you to rethink the spiritual gift of prophecy as confronting hard truths rather than predicting the future.

  • For the Heretics and Apostates (And Whatever Else They Call You)
    2024/09/25

    There's nothing like saying you're deconstructing to get people to call you all kinds of things -- heretic, apostate, false teacher. But I find these are easy "insults" with few who use them actually applying them correctly.

    • clear definitions of orthodoxy, heterodoxy, heresy, apostasy, and blasphemy
    • how these terms are often misused and misunderstood in faith communities
    • gentle guidance on how to navigate accusations of heresy and apostasy
    • the importance of understanding the broader Christian tradition.
