S4 E16: Church Hurt

S4 E17: Who the Devil is the Devil?

Have you ever found yourself wondering about the true identity of the Devil? Is he the rebellious angel Lucifer, the cunning adversary Satan, Barney the Purple Dinosaur, or the mysterious Prince of Darkness? Are these names all referring to the same legendary figure, or are there subtle differences that separate them? This week, Chuck and Jon embark on a fascinating journey through Isaiah and Ezekiel to unravel the myths and realities surrounding the Devil. From the fiery depths of religious lore to the eerie tales that have shaped our imaginations, they’ll explore what the Bible really says about who the Devil is. Ok, maybe they don’t really talk about Barney in this episode as it pertains to the topic. Sorry, Barney, maybe next time! Although, Jon did mention a great book from C.S. Lewis called The Screwtape Letters. Check that out here: https://a.co/d/0gN0X125 Hey there, podcast lovers! We hope you're having a great time tuning in!
