Life on Point

The Nations: From Babel to Mars Hill | Life on Point #35

Genesis 10 lays out the nations of the world, and most of us skip right past it. What we mistake for simple geopolitical divisions is actually part of a divine structure in God's plan for the earth. In this episode, we trace the nations from Babel to Mars Hill, from humanity's fracture in Genesis 11, to Deuteronomy 32, to Paul's declaration in Acts 17, and explore how redemption unfolds through the nations, not around them.

Sacred Spaces | Life on Point #34

What does the Bible actually mean by sacred space? Most people think of churches, temples, or "holy ground," but Scripture tells a much bigger story. From Eden to Sinai, from tabernacle to temple, the Bible presents sacred space as the place where God's presence orders reality. In this episode, we explore sacred space through ancient Near Eastern culture, biblical theology, and the life of Christ, and we end where the Bible ends, not with a building, but with a Person.

Q&A #5 | Life on Point #33

In this episode, we answer three more questions submitted by you! 1. Why did Jesus remain silent before Pilate but speak plainly to Caiaphas? 2. Why did Jesus curse the fig tree out of season, and what does that act have to do with the temple cleansing? 3. Why does the ending of Mark's Gospel seem to cut off abruptly, and should the longer ending be trusted?

Q&A #4 | Life on Point #32

In this episode, we answer another round of questions submitted by you! 1. Why is there almost nothing said about Jesus' life between age 12 and 30? Is this gap intentional? What do we miss when we skip over these years? 2. Why do the genealogies of Jesus differ in Matthew and Luke? (Matthew 1 vs. Luke 3)

Cultivating Discipleship | Life on Point #31

How can we encourage spiritual growth without making it over-complicated? In this episode, we discuss how to simplify discipleship in practical ways.
