March 08, 2023 09:00 - 47 minutes - 43.1 MBSometimes we just have to revisit the fundamental questions. Today, it's salvation.

March 01, 2023 09:00 - 45 minutes - 41.3 MBWe've heard the TED Talks and the sermons or read the books and the articles that tell us "5 Things Everyone Should Do In Order To _____!"

February 15, 2023 09:00 - 49 minutes - 45.6 MBIt's been a core value of ours to seek out, discover, and make meaning around everything we do at Ravel since the beginning.

124. Participating In Predestination
February 08, 2023 09:00 - 51 minutes - 46.9 MBSomething happened to Stephen a couple months ago. Or rather, almost happened. It had such an impact on him that he needed to make a voice memo about it in the moments immediately after, just to share on the podcast today. (As they say, anything for that sweet sweet content.) This event has caused Stephen to ponder the role of God's protection, God's plan, and the doctrine of predestination, because it felt like the fates saved Stephen's life. Mentioned in the Episode: Jeremiah 29...

123. The Lord Of The Purity Rings
February 01, 2023 09:00 - 55 minutes - 51 MBThe words we use mean things and our choice of them matters. Today, Josh asks us to tackle the meaning of "purity" as it is used its Scriptural contexts and how it has been twisted and weaponized to control the bodies of people who grew up inside of "Purity Culture." Josh wants a rebrand campaign to call it "Disgust Culture" instead. Emily is rightly tired of listening to more men talking about her body. And Stephen shares the story of when his purity ring shattered. Mentioned in t...

122. In The Beginning Was The Fall
January 25, 2023 09:00 - 50 minutes - 46.6 MBOur first listener submitted topic comes to us from Twitter, wondering if the historicity of the Fall has bearing on the historicity of Jesus' life and atoning work. So we rehash a bit of classical atonement theology as we try to get to the root of what the Fall is/was and what meaning the story gives us. Mentioned in the Episode: Spongebob Teaches Us Atonement Ravel Episode Do You Deny The Resurrection? Ravel Episode Romans 5:12-21 - All Sin in Adam, All Live in Christ The Ret...
121. It's A Miracle!
January 18, 2023 09:00 - 52 minutes - 48.5 MBWe never thought we'd see this day. A day where we feel spirit-led to offer our first public apology. Stephen is humbly seeking reconciliation at this time with those he has wronged, so we thank you for respecting his family's privacy at this time. Oh and we have a conversation about miracles. What they are, who they're for, and how we should interpret them. Mentioned in the Episode: Mark 5:1-20 Legion Matthew 17:20 Faith Like A Mustard Seed Dissecting Conferences, Camps and Ma...
120. The Incarnated Teenage Jesus
January 11, 2023 09:00 - 49 minutes - 45.1 MBWe're in the midst of the New Years Resolution, so while we're in the mood and mode of meta-cognition, let's talk about the incarnation!

119. Rebellion: What Is It Good For?
January 04, 2023 09:00 - 49 minutes - 45.8 MBDepending on which way you look at it... absolutely nothing or vital to ushering in change. The question arises early in the discussion, "against what or whom?", because we can think of a few examples where rebellion was the right thing to do. We wonder aloud if Jesus himself was rebellious and, of course, attempt a little self-reflection to see if Ravel itself is an act of rebellion. Mentioned in the Episode: Rambutan Wikipedia 113. All Things Being Equal Ravel Episode Matthew ...

117. I See Jesus In The Eisegesis
December 14, 2022 09:00 - 57 minutes - 52.7 MBMuch like the Kool Aid Man busting through brick walls, Stephen is ready to put some modes and methods of biblical interpretation on blast. In particular, he's thinking that perhaps eisegesis isn't exactly the supreme sin that some say it is, because he thinks that (almost) literally everyone does it on a regular basis. And a lively discussion with actual disagreement ensues. Ooooh Yeah! Mentioned in the Episode: Dan McClellan on TikTok @maklelan 1 Kings 18:20-40 - Elijah and the...
116. Prophecy: Divination, Truth-Telling, or Gone Forever?
December 07, 2022 09:00 - 50 minutes - 46.2 MBReconsider prophecy with us as we interrogate the function as telling the future or speaking the truth. Or perhaps you were raised cessationist like Stephen and you think prophecy is a gift no longer available to us. We each share how we were raised to think about prophecy and how we've maybe deepened or changed our understandings. Mentioned in the Episode: Ezekiel 4:12 Cooking with Dung Raw Tools Organization at rawtools.org The Billings Beet An Honest Liar with James Randi Do...
115. How Is It With Your Soul?
November 30, 2022 09:00 - 49 minutes - 45.6 MBEmily poses the question outright: how is it with your soul? So naturally, first we must discuss the metaphysics of the soul, attempt to define it, and throw up our hands in frustration. But then things take a turn to the personal and vulnerable as we each take a turn earnestly answering the question!

113. All Things Being Equal
November 16, 2022 09:00 - 55 minutes - 50.4 MBWould it shock you to learn that Stephen used to engage in petty theft? And would you consider that sin equally evil compared to something like... murder? On this episode, Josh asks us to dissect this mindset of "all sins being equal" before God. Because after all, all have sinned and fallen short. But does that let some people shirk accountability? Plus, a big personal announcement for Stephen! Mentioned in the Episode: The Bible For Normal People - Rachel Held Evans on Unravelin...
112. When The Dead Talk Back
November 09, 2022 09:00 - 52 minutes - 48.3 MBHalloween vibes come late as we field our first question from the Ravel "Hotline"!

111. I Died And I Think I Went To Heaven
November 02, 2022 08:00 - 49 minutes - 45.3 MBOr maybe I went to hell? At the very least, it was near death. Emily brings questions about near death experiences and their validity. Josh validates them as experience, but not as proof of anything. Stephen is back to believing that maybe there's something to the whole spiritual realm. And Emily shares her story of meeting an angel. Mentioned in the Episode: Proof of Heaven by Eben Alexander Luke 16:19-31 - Rich Man and Lazarus Filling the Demon Gap episode Dissecting Confere...
110. Failing Great Expectations
October 26, 2022 08:00 - 51 minutes - 47.2 MBWith every door that closes, it can be easy to feel like a failure. At least for Stephen, it is. With changes going on in life, and certain expectations are not met, the feeling of letting someone down can be hard to shake. Especially if it is only your own expectations for yourself that you failed. Mentioned in the Episode: Josh Lieuallen on Know Normal People, Part 1 and Part 2 Emily Rettinghouse on Know Normal People The Tim Ferriss Show Matthew 25:14-30 - Parable of the Ta...
109. Who Is A Christian?
October 19, 2022 08:00 - 50 minutes - 46 MBWe're finally asking the question! On a definitional level, who gets to call themselves a Christian? Because, as you may know, there are a lot of different ideas out there. Josh is ready to say that anyone who claims to be a Christian is one. Emily insists we must define it without the institutional church getting in the way. And Stephen is calling himself an Evangelical again?! Mentioned in the Episode: Counter Apologetics Podcast The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis 1 John 4 - God Is...
108. Church, Creeds, and Imperialism
October 12, 2022 08:00 - 55 minutes - 51 MBPerhaps the divine right of kings was invented by the kings and not a gift from the gods. In human cultures based on hierarchical power-over structures, is it any wonder that the church became the same? Truth wielded like a hammer where every doubt looks like a nail and power used to keep people in line. It seems designed this way, potential born of the Creeds themselves. Listen in as we contemplate the origin of the creeds, the desert monastics, and church design. Mentioned in the...
107. Shame Has No Place Here
October 05, 2022 08:00 - 44 minutes - 40.6 MBIs humility the opposite of shame? And could shame serve any good purpose? This is what we ponder as we name stories from the bible involved shame and discuss the efficacy of anonymous donations.

Stephen wonders if there is a sliver of truth to the old stories and wants to know what to do with that. Emily informs us on the types of myths that are told and how they help scaffold our understandings of the world and humanity. Josh says the only thing that keeps him remotely Christian is the mythical nature of it. Mentioned in the Episode: Miracles by C.S. Lewis The Enuma Elish The Better Angel...
105. Ecumenical Harm Reduction
September 21, 2022 08:00 - 55 minutes - 51.2 MBWe cannot completely negate the harm we can cause. But what we can do is mitigate with intention. For instance, it is a widely accepted position in the scientific community that we are beyond avoiding the effects of human-caused climate change, but we ought to keep working to mitigate the harm done. Josh says we should be thinking of church in the same way. Mentioned in the Episode: safegatherings.com Support us: Join our Patreon community and buy us a drink at patreon.com/ravel...
104. Practically Perfect In Every Way
September 14, 2022 08:00 - 55 minutes - 51 MBPerfection. How do we even begin raveling out conceptions of perfection from Greek and Roman philosophy, through Hebrew theology and Christian expectation? We seem to be called to be perfect as the heavenly Father is perfect. But how does that change when we understand the Hebrew "Tov" and the Greek "Tellios"? Do we live, striving to be Good? Are we already Good? Mentioned in the Episode: Matthew 5:48 - Be Perfect James 2:14-22 - Faith Without Works Matthew 14:30-33 - Peter Walk...
103. The Lord of Rings and Lord of Lords
September 07, 2022 08:00 - 52 minutes - 48.2 MBWhat do Samwise Gamgee and Superman have in common? What about Gandalf and Aslan? Emily brings a discussion about the "Christ figures" found in works of fiction, why they resonate with us, and whether we can name Christ figures in our own lives. We discuss the difference between a narrative Christ figure and an IRL person acting Christ-like, while also pondering the unique meta-narrative of the crucified God. Mentioned in the Episode: Resurrection of Superman The Lord of the Ring...
102. Church, Mosh Pits, and The Question of Desire
August 31, 2022 08:00 - 59 minutes - 54.2 MBIs Stephen really trying to say going to a metal show is the same as going to church? Yes, yes he is. And while he might still think that by the end of this, he's ready to take the risky leap of faith into trying out a new church soon. Josh struggles to come up with an answer as to why he doesn't want to go back to church, while Emily asks us to consider, "what the heck did you expect?"

Josh is curious to know where we land and finds out that Stephen is having a hard time even showing up, making it a perfect role play in how to have conversations in which both sides clearly disagree and don't approach the topic within the same paradigm.

99. All Glory, Honor, and Praise
August 10, 2022 08:00 - 59 minutes - 54.8 MBMan's chief end is to glorify God and enjoy Him forever, as the catechism goes. But what does that even mean? What does it look like to glorify God? Perhaps we're making Jesus famous or Christ beautiful. Or we're conveying honor to the Creator Being. Or we're reminding ourselves of the vastness of God and security we find within.

98. Thank You, Grief
August 03, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 57.9 MBGrief shows up in many forms and Emily is wondering what it can teach us. Whether we are mourning the death of a loved one, or experiencing a void through loss of a job or item, or feeling the lost potential future of how we thought life would go, grief is here. And perhaps it can teach us to love more. Or maybe it helps to know God has grieved too. In the end, we're here to say "thank you, grief". Because while it is our attachments that create our greatest sufferings, that is also...
97. Burnout Needs More Than A Band-Aid
July 27, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 76.1 MBBurnout and fatigue show up in many different ways. Stephen is feeling the strain this week as he asks to process burnout in the midst of it himself. We talk about the expectations placed on clergy and volunteers in ministry, the value of negative space to inspire action, motivation in dry seasons, and the slow work of healing with remedies that are more than a bandaid on the mind and spirit. ***ANNOUNCEMENT*** Send in your Episode 100 submissions via email at [email protected]...

July 13, 2022 08:00 - 1 hour - 57.8 MBAs we all know, Emily has recently been busy preparing for and celebrating the confirmation of her ordination, so we thought today was a perfect opportunity to entangle Ravel with our guest co-host, Cori Di Biase of the A Freedom of Ideas Podcast.
