Holy Wrestling- The Wounds of Women and the Whispers of Redemption

Holy Wrestling: Politics, Power, and the Gospel

In this episode of Holy Wrestling, we take an honest look at Christian nationalism and the politics through the lens of Scripture. Rather than asking which political side is right, we ask a deeper question: Where does our ultimate allegiance belong? Join me as we explore how followers of Christ can navigate politics, justice, and cultural division while remaining rooted in the gospel.

Holy Wrestling: Fear, Hell, and the Heart of the Gospel

What if the gospel was never meant to be “believe this or burn”?   In this episode of Holy Wrestling, we will unpack the tension between fear-based faith and the invitation Jesus actually offers. After a listener raised concerns about Christianity being framed as a choice between heaven and hell, we dive deep into Scripture, church history, and theology to explore what the Bible really says. I break down the three major Christian views of hell, challenge common assumptions, and ask whether fear is meant to be the foundation of our faith—or if something deeper is at the center. If you’ve ever wrestled with questions about hell, judgment, or the nature of God, this conversation is for you.

Holy Wrestling: Genocide, Judgment, and the Goodness of God

How can a good God allow — or even command — acts of judgment that seem to cost innocent lives? In this deeply honest and theologically rich episode of Seeds of Grace Reflections, we wrestle with one of the hardest questions in the Christian faith: the tension between God’s goodness and the violence found in Scripture. Rather than offering easy answers or tidy explanations, this conversation invites listeners to sit with the complexity. Together, we explore ancient warfare language, the nature of divine justice, the reality of systemic sin, and the spiritual dimension behind biblical conflict. We look closely at the stories of Canaan and Egypt, the death of the firstborn, the hardening of Pharaoh’s heart, and the question that haunts many believers — what about the children? Through it all, this episode returns again and again to the character of God as revealed in Scripture: slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love, and unwavering in justice. This is not an attempt to soften the weight of these passages, but to face them honestly — with theology as our guide and Christ as our anchor. If you’ve ever struggled with doubt, discomfort, or unanswered questions about God’s justice, this episode reminds you: faith is not weakened by wrestling — it is often strengthened there.

Is Christmas Pagan? Mini Episode

Have you ever heard someone say: “Christmas is a pagan holiday” or “Santa Claus is really a Norse god”—and wondered, is that actually true? Over the past few weeks, I’ve been asked these questions more than once. So I made a short video to dig into the history, theology, and traditions behind Christmas—beyond the myths and memes. In this episode, we explore: * Why December 25 was chosen for Jesus’ birth—and how early Christians calculated it centuries before it became a “holiday.” * The real story behind Christmas trees, lights, and gift-giving—and how these traditions point to Christ rather than pagan worship. * The history of Santa Claus, St. Nicholas, and even Krampus—and how Christian generosity inspired these figures long before commercial culture shaped them. If you’ve ever wondered: “Is it wrong to celebrate Christmas? Am I honoring Christ—or something else?” This conversation is for you. We separate fact from myth, look at the historical evidence, and uncover the Christian heart behind beloved traditions. You’ll see that lights, gifts, stockings, and yes—even Santa—can point our hearts to the greatest gift of all: Jesus Christ.

Holy Wrestling- The Wounds of Women and the Whispers of Redemption

In this first issue of Holy Wrestling, we step into one of the hardest questions in Scripture: the abuse, trafficking, and mistreatment of women in the Old Testament—and whether God allowed, endorsed, or even commanded it. With honesty and compassion, we explore the world the Bible was written into, the difference between what God describes and what He commands, and the redemptive thread that elevates and protects women from Genesis to Jesus. This episode invites you to wrestle deeply, think critically, and rediscover the goodness of God in the very passages that trouble us most. Join me as we begin this journey of truth, context, and redemption.
