The 400 Years of Silence
Where did the Pharisees and Sadducees come from? Who is King Herod and how did he come to power? Most people don't understand that 400 years have passed from the time of the book of Malachi to the announcements of the angel Gabriel to Zachariah and Mary. What happened in that 400 years? Why is it known as the 400 years of silence? In this special Advent episode, we answer all those questions and more!
Feasting!
The Doctrines of Grains season 1 finale is one for the books with our first guest ever, Ben Garrett. Ben is a deacon at Refuge Church in Ogden, Utah, and co-hosts the Haunted Cosmos podcast with his friend and pastor, Brian Sauve. In season 1, we’ve talked a lot about feasting in many forms, and Ben jumped on to help us understand how to take that Biblical concept and apply it to almost every aspect of our life. And he brought some napalm-level truth bombs that you don’t want to miss!
How man naturally knows god
Seth and Cole return for episode 7 of Doctrines of Grains! In this spiciest of spicy episodes, we review an American Pale Ale by Vibrissa Brewery - located in Seth's hometown! We also discuss whether or not Christians should be using wine for communion - and the connection that grape juice has to first-wave feminism. And finally, we get into Chapter 3 of Calvin's first book of the Institutes, which dives into the concept that all men are naturally born with this knowledge of God imprinted upon their very minds. It's a great discussion on a foundational principle of presuppositional apologetics! You won't want to miss a single second!
What it is to Know God
What does it mean for man to know God? Is it possible to know God as the Creator, but deny him as Redeemer? We also discuss the Bud Light Controversy AND review a GREAT beer: the James Bean porter from James River Brewery in Scottsville, Virginia. Don't miss it!
