Simpler

When Israel is mentioned in the Bible, should we as Christians link ourselves to that passage? Since Israelites are considered God's people, should we consider all of them to be people of faith? How should we think of the nation of Israel in present day? These are all questions that get tossed around in Christian circles and we are here today to make this conversation SIMPLER! THE SIMPLER CONFEREN...

Last week we talked about reading too much into the Bible and allegorizing it and this week we talking about reading the exact right amount into the Bible and looking at the imagery used to point to Jesus in the Old Testament! The Scripture is so beautiful and intentional and you know what we should do - talk about it! THE SIMPLER CONFERENCE REGISTRATION IS OPEN - the456.org/simplerpod blow kisses...

Most of us have heard someone talk about David and Goliath and then ask, "What's the giant in your life?" or about Daniel and the Lion's Den and ask, "What Lion's Den do you need to be free from this week?" Too often in our culture we allegorize the Bible, reading ourself into it and striving to find some sort of immediate application that we often miss the beauty that is actually there. This week...

1 John 1:9 has had a lot of misunderstanding surrounding it for a long time, on this week's episode we strive to make it simpler by discussing forgiveness, salvation, and the finished work of Christ.    THE SIMPLER CONFERENCE REGISTRATION IS OPEN - the456.org/simplerpod  say hi 2 Steven @thegardenaudio  subscribe, follow & leave reviews pls  check out @simplerpod on th...

Whether we know it or not, most of us categorize preachers as "good" or "false teacher." What if there's more categories than that?

Many of us have experienced some sort of "high" in our Christian life and then when days don't reflect that same energy we feel like something is off or maybe we're not as close to God as we thought. Are we complacent? Are we stuck? Are we doing anything to hinder growth? Or are we misunderstanding what our lives in Christ are to look like? Ryan, Pierce and Micah dive into this suggested topic and...

Social Justice means something different to lots of people - but does the Bible have anything to say about it? Pierce, Micah and Ryan have never really explored the topic before this recording so you get to jump in pretty RAW and see how a lot of these conversations unfold.
