#80: 2 Sam 6: Get In, Loser, We're Goin' Dancin'

In 2 Samuel 6, we read about King David bringing the Ark of the Covenant to Jerusalem, marking it as the political and worship center of Israel. But there are some serious questions: why did Uzzah perish? What's David angry about? What happens the second time they transport the ark, and what can we learn from the way David's wife despises his worship?

#76: Heb 10: That's Not Chocolate It's Bean Paste...

In this episode, we look at Heb 10, where the writer challenges believers to fully grasp their position in Christ and gives a series of do's and don'ts that should naturally flow from the realization of what that position truly is. In doing so, he presents two contrasts – one a warning and one an encouragement – that teach how things are not always what they seem.
