Radiant Midweek

Why did Jesus send out exactly 70 (or 72) disciples in Luke 10? And why, when they came back, did He say, "I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven"? The answer goes all the way back to the Tower of Babel.

In Part 2 of The Scattering, we trace one of the Bible's most overlooked storylines: the 70 nations of Genesis 10, the "sons of God" in Deuteronomy 32:8, and the divine council of Psalm 82, where God puts the gods of the natio...

If you grew up in church, you were taught the Tower of Babel as the story of where languages came from. It's not. It's the third rebellion in Genesis, and what God did in response is the most overlooked turning point in the whole Bible.

Genesis opens with three rebellions. Adam and Eve reach for the fruit. The sons of God cross a line on Mount Hermon and the Nephilim are born. And then the whole human race gathers on the plains of ...

Did God really curse Ham? And does the Bible support the racial interpretation used to justify slavery?

In this episode of Into the Gap, we examine Noah’s words in Genesis 9, why the curse falls on Canaan, and how the story connects to Israel’s later encounters with the Canaanites.

We explore the research of David M. Goldenberg, author of The Curse of Ham: Race and Slavery in Early Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, publ...

What if Noah’s flood wasn’t only a story about judgment, but a revelation of what covenant love actually looks like?

In this episode of Into the Gap, we follow the first biblical covenant from Noah and the rainbow through Abraham, Moses, David, marriage, and ultimately Jesus. Along the way, we uncover the difference between a contract built on conditions and a covenant built on promise.

Why does Genesis describe the rai...

How many times has the world ended?

Most debates about Noah focus on one question:

Was the flood global or regional?

But what if that's only the beginning?

In this episode of Into the Gap, Pastor Jason explores one of the Bible's biggest patterns, from Genesis to Revelation. Was Noah's flood simply a historical catastrophe, or does Scripture present it as one of several world-ending events that divide biblical history into ages?

We...

The animals weren't always afraid of us.

The morning they came to Noah — down out of the hills, in pairs, with nothing chasing them — the world got one last glimpse of something it had lost. And almost nobody stopped to look.

In this episode we ask a question almost nobody asks about Noah's ark: what were the animals actually doing there? Because this story isn't just about saving animals from a flood. It's about preser...

In 1959, a Turkish army captain reviewing NATO aerial photos spotted something strange 6,500 feet up a mountainside: a boat-shaped mound, 18 miles south of Mount Ararat. This year, researchers with ground-penetrating radar say there are tunnels inside it, soil chemistry that shouldn't be there — and for the first time in decades, permission to drill.

So… did they find Noah's Ark?

In this episode we walk the Durupınar s...

We've all seen the children's version of Noah's Ark.

A smiling old man. Happy animals. A rainbow overhead.

But the Bible describes something entirely different.

Noah's Ark wasn't designed like a ship.

It had no sail. No rudder. No steering wheel. No way to navigate.

In fact, the Hebrew word doesn't even describe a boat.

It describes a box.

Why would God command Noah to build a vessel that couldn't be steered?

In this episode of Int...

We think we know Noah. The boat. The animals. The rainbow. A children's-room mural.

But the oldest writings about him don't start with a boat. They start with a baby — a newborn whose face was so radiant his own father wondered if the child even belonged to him.

So who was Noah, really?

In this episode we follow the man the flood was named around. We open with the strange birth legend preserved in the Dead Sea Scrolls, then g...

Long before the flood, the whole world remembered an age of giants. And then the Bible says something almost impossible, that the Nephilim were on the earth "and also afterward." After the flood that was built to erase them. How?

In this episode of Into the Gap, we walk into one of Scripture's strangest mysteries. Who were the "mighty men of renown"? How big were the giants, really? And why do the Greeks, the Mesopotamians, and the...

What if the oldest “non-human intelligence” story on earth isn’t hidden in a government vault… but in the Bible itself?

In this episode of Into the Gap, Jason dives into one of the most controversial and mysterious passages in all of Scripture: Genesis 6 and the “sons of God.” Were they fallen angels? Ancient kings? The line of Seth? And why did this strange event happen just before the flood of...

What really happened before Noah’s flood?

Genesis 6 gives us only four mysterious verses about the “sons of God,” the Nephilim, and a world spiraling into violence. But ancient Jewish tradition preserved a much larger story — a story of heavenly beings called the Watchers, forbidden knowledge, giant offspring, and a rebellion that corrupted the earth before the flood ever came.

In this episode of Into the Ga...

What if the flood story in Genesis is more than a children’s story about animals on a boat? What if it’s one of the great hinge moments of the entire Bible?

In this first episode of our new Into the Gap series on Noah’s Flood, we step into Genesis 6 and uncover some of the strangest and most debated passages in Scripture: the sons of God, the Nephilim, the Watchers, giants, ancient flood traditions, and the first ...

What happened in the wilderness was bigger than temptation.

In Part 3 of The Serpent in the Garden series, we follow Jesus from the Jordan River into the desert where He faces the same enemy from Eden. The serpent returns with the same ancient strategy: question identity, twist truth, and demand allegiance.

This episode explores: • Jesus’ temptation in the wilderness • The connection between Eden, Babel, and the kingdoms of t...

"Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven."

Most of us have heard that line. Most of us assume it's from the Bible. It isn't. It was written by an English poet — John Milton — in 1667. And most of what you picture when you hear the word Satan came from him too.

In Part 2 of our series on the Serpent in the Garden, we do something harder: we read the actual Bible. And we find that yes, there IS a war. But it doesn't...

Most of us were taught the same story. A snake. An apple. A bad decision. But the text never says snake. It never says apple. And it never says Satan. So who was the serpent in the garden?

In Part 1 of this two-part series, we follow the Bible's slowest reveal; a character introduced in one sentence in Genesis, then almost completely silent across the Old Testament, named only a handful of times in thousands of years. Then Jesus ar...

Episode 7: Who Is the “Us” in Let Us Make Man?

What does Genesis 1:26 really mean when God says, “Let us make mankind in our image”? In this episode of Into the Gap, we explore one of the Bible’s most fascinating mysteries. Is God speaking within the Trinity… Father, Son, and Holy Spirit? Or is this a glimpse into a heavenly council, an unseen realm alive with spiritual beings under God’s ...

What do you picture when you hear the word angel?

Chubby babies with wings? Hollywood warriors fighting in the sky?

Both images are familiar… but neither comes straight from the Bible.

In this episode of Into the Gap, we step back and take a closer look at what Scripture actually says about angels—and what it doesn’t. Because when you read carefully, something surprising happens.

The Bible gives us less detail th...

What if the world before the flood wasn’t primitive… but advanced?

In this episode of Into the Gap, we explore a question most people never ask:

What could humanity become if given enough time?

Using biblical timelines, population modeling, and ancient accounts, we step into the possibility of a pre-flood world that was:

• Growing rapidly
• Highly populated
• Structurally complex
• And increasingly corrupted

From ma...
