34 - The Lord's Prayer
January 29, 2020 13:00 - 1 hour - 45.4 MBWe're back! Kicking off GGP for 2020 we get into the Lord's Prayer. We talk briefly about the different versions of the prayer, what's being said in there, why say it, and how we feel about it personally/whether or not we employ it on a regular basis. Want to learn about this prayer you likely have said a time or many? Well, thanks in advance for listening.
33 - Christmas Special
December 18, 2019 15:00 - 1 hour - 47.5 MBWe tried something new this time by live streaming our broadcast! It's been a fun experiment and I think we'll continue to try it. But anyway, this week we took the time to do a Christmas Special. We're asking the question "who is Jesus?" and figure this is the perfect time to ask that question in light of Luke's account of the Christmas story. Let us know what you think and thanks for listening!
32 - Romans Endgame
November 27, 2019 13:00 - 50 minutes - 34.8 MBWe close out our discussion of Romans in this episode that touches on some big questions like: what should we do with a government that doesn't seem to be honoring God? Is it an authority established by God? What does it mean for Christ to be a body with many members? And...should we be vegans? Thanks for tuning in to our final moments in Romans...for now.

31 - Romans and the Elect
November 13, 2019 13:00 - 47 minutes - 32.5 MBWe're alllllmost done with our walk through Romans, which has been really enjoyable for us, and has hopefully helped you chew on some of the most dense parts of Paul's writings as well. This time we're on chapters 9 through 11 which continue to clarify some of those tough questions like predestination, the elect, why Paul is using those words, and what Jesus has to do with it all. Thanks for listening, we hope you'll enjoy it!

Romans 3&4
October 23, 2019 12:00 - 51 minutes - 35.3 MBThis conversation keeps getting better as we take a stroll through Paul's incredibly prolific letter to the Romans. Who does Paul think Jesus is? He thinks He has a little something to do with the Exodus and Abraham, and if you don't have a Jewish background, you might miss out on that immediate understanding, but don't let that bring you down! Thanks for getting into this epic letter with us, it's been a fun conversation so far!

Romans 1-2ish
October 16, 2019 12:00 - 52 minutes - 36.1 MBToday we begin what will likely be a deep dive into Paul's most popular letter, Romans. We thought we'd be getting through the first four chapters, but in the end, only really the first and some of the second chapters. This is going to be a really fun conversation and I hope you enjoy it alongside us. Also, sorry for the audio discrepancies, I think we've finally isolated the problem and can bring you a better sound next week! Let's do it!

Philippians
October 02, 2019 12:00 - 47 minutes - 32.5 MBWe get back on track with Paul's letters asking the question "who does Paul think Jesus is?" and how is his concept of Jesus developing over the course of his letters. So we're exploring them by the date in which historians believe them to be written, from earliest in his life to latest. This week we're on Philippians, a straight-forward letter full of one liners about Jesus' identity as Paul considers Him. Thanks for checking it out, and we can't wait to hear back from you on this episode!

These are the questions we begin to explore in this episode, so thanks for listening and I hope you can interact with us more on this!

God Moments (Part One)
September 18, 2019 12:00 - 39 minutes - 27.4 MBWe're taking a detour from our journey through the letters of Paul to talk about the "God moments" of the Bible. What was going on when people heard or saw God? Did they actually or was it a metaphor? Is it a messenger or the actual creator God? Was it fully God or just part of Him? We'll begin talking about that topic this week and wrap up the conversation with the question "why does God operate in this way" next week in Part 2. As always, thanks so much for listening, we're so humbled that...

Thanks for tuning in and as always, feel free to send us any questions or comments you may have!

1 Corinthians (The Second Part)
August 21, 2019 12:00 - 42 minutes - 29.1 MBWe wrap up our discussion over 1 Corinthians, in light of the question "who is Jesus?" We begin in controversial territory and want to disclaim ahead of time that we are not making any theological assertions when discussing homosexuality as Paul portrays it here, we're merely reading and reflecting in a candid way. We also want to apologize ahead of time for the audio discrepancy that flips to HD part of the way in.

Thanks for listening, let's do this!!

July 24, 2019 11:00 - 39 minutes - 27.5 MBThere have been a lot of things written down about who Jesus is, but what are the first things people wrote about him? Most likely, those first written thoughts come from Paul, specifically in his first letter to the Thessalonians. So this week we dive in to Paul and his first writings all while trying to answer the question: who is Jesus?

2 Samuel
June 26, 2019 12:00 - 43 minutes - 29.7 MBWe continue into 2 Samuel and begin to notice how the story seems to be pointing us to a new character that won't show up for some time...a character that we'll begin talking about next week.

So that's how we're approaching 1 Samuel and the conversation that we'll have surround the book in this episode. Thanks for listening, and as always, please send us any questions or thoughts you all have!
