Better Than Fiction Bible Podcast

(Genesis 12:1-8) Welcome to a very special episode of the show, now featuring 100% less Matt. That's right, it's another two person episode and this week we are talking about land....exciting I know. But tune in anyway because it's like we always say: It's always more, not less.

(Genesis 11:27 – 12:3) ELECTION! There I said it. But it’s not a scary theological word, It’s an important concept we need to understand to help connect the dots of Abraham’s story. Also, it might used in a way you have never heard before. Strap in, this week: The White House, Chosen people, Matt’s Jokes, and The Princess Bride.  

What makes a person worthy to be chosen by God? Is it fate?, destiny?, election?, luck? Might be more (or less) to this some might think. This week we talk Jews, qualifications, dissertations, and schoolyard football.  

(Genesis 1-11) The slingshot is pulled back and ready to fire, the pieces have been laid out on the board, and the prelude to the greatest narrative is complete. But before all that, let’s take a moment to reflect on where we’ve been, and where we are going. Recaps, Covid, Yoda impressions, and new understandings on this week’s episode.  

We’ve come along way since Eden, but once again it’s time for humanity to leave and be changed forever. Join us on this wrap up of the City of Babel and get a look at what is to come. This week: Sons of God, Traitors, and the Death Star.

Pain, suffering, and misfortune: what does the heavenly counsel have to do with it? Today, we look at Job and his understanding of heavenly matter. When it comes to tough questions about God, you don’t have to know the answer, but don’t explain them away. This week: The Devil you know, Muppets, Publicists, and Peter Rabbit.

We all know who sits on the Throne, but who else is in the castle? We know God works through His divine Counsel, but how much self-governing power do they have and what are the ramifications of their actions? This week: Confessions, Prophecy, The Terminator, and Chocolate bunnies.

A hit job, made to look like an accident, an order made the very top. Is this a mafia movie? No, it’s from the Bible and from an unexpected source.

 (Deuteronomy 32) Do you believe in Guardian Angels? Turns out, a bunch of other people do too. And for good reason! We explore the idea of nations, gods and angels. This week: Sons of God, Little “g” gods, and ninja turtles.

(Deuteronomy 32:1-9) When Babel fell and it’s people were scattered, who lead them and how did they come to live in their lands? Turns out the answer might be: The Usual Suspects. We continue to live through the Exodus through the eyes of Israel by looking backwards. This week: God, gods, the sons of God, and Sith Lords.

(Genesis 11:1-9) What do Dr. Suess, and Hitler have in common? That’s right, nothing! But we will talk about both during our exploration of the Tower of Babel. This Week: Dictators, Rebellion, God’s might, and Turtles.  

(Genesis 11:1-8) What do towers and boats have in common? Nothing? Well, just ask the people of Babel and they’ll tell you the two have a ton in common, apparently. This week: Airplanes, Wonder Woman, The Monkey’s Paw, and the heart issue behind the evils of technology.  

(Genesis 10) You didn’t read that wrong, we cover an entire chapter in one episode. Just like many parts of the Bible reading it today in modern times, it might seem confusing. But there is more to this list of names than what meets the eye. On this week’s episode: Inclusivity, The Land Before Time, and Good Burger.

The patterns! THE PATTERNS!!! Can’t you see them!? It’s all connected, I’m telling you, IT’S ALL CONNECTED!

(Genesis 9:18-29) Hold onto your seats, folks its going to get a little crazy this week. We have an ancient mystery on our hands and it all revolves around single question: “What did Ham do?” Part 2 of this most scandalous topic

(Genesis 9:18-29) Hold onto your seats, folks its going to get a little crazy this week. We have an ancient mystery on our hands and it all revolves around single question: “What did Ham do?”

(Genesis 9:1-7) Can we go more than 3 episodes without referencing Lord of the Rings? Probably not. But will also talk about: Meat, The Garden of Eden, and how the flood changes humanity forever.

(Genesis 8:20 – 22) You may think you know what good meat smells like, but you’re wrong. Noah pulls off the biggest BBQ the world has ever seen, and shows us a picture of the patience of God. This week, Lambs, Long noses, and DeLoreans. Great Scott!

(Genesis 8:13-19) The waters have receded, but we are still on the ark. On this week's episode: Coverings, convertibles, hard conversations, and the ending of Old Yeller.

(Genesis 8:1-12) “Prophet!” said I, “thing of evil! prophet still, if bird or devil! By that Heaven that bends above us by that God we both adore Tell this soul with sorrow laden if, within the distant Aidenn, Shall again on dry land this ark be laid in? Quoth the Raven: Yes, Actually.

(Genesis 8:1-4) "Dry Land is Not a Myth, I have seen it!" It takes faith to believe that everything is going to be alright, especially when you haven't heard from God in a while. But that is exactly what noah and his family experienced during their time on the flooded earth. On this week's episode: truma, faith, Kevin Costner, and mighty winds.
