In this episode of the Archway Bible Podcast, we explore the Old Testament foundations for belief in the Triune God and why they matter for how we do theology. We also discuss what Christians lose when the Trinity is treated as an untouchable mystery instead of the centerpiece of the Christian faith, before diving into contemporary dogmatics to ask how the Trinity actually works.

In this episode, we pick up our discussion on the beasts of Revelation 13 by taking a closer look at the mark of the beast. Instead of chasing modern conspiracy theories, we examine the biblical and historical context of the mark, what it meant to its original audience, and what its message means for believers today.

In this episode, we explore the first beast of Revelation 13 and discuss why John’s vision is about more than a single future ruler. We argue that the beast symbolizes empire itself, showing how people and institutions can become tools of evil when corrupted by power, and how Satan tempts us to trust in states, armies, and earthly security rather than in Jesus Christ. We also consider how this warning applied to the Roman Empire and what it might have to say about America today.

In this episode, we tackle one of the biggest tensions in the New Testament: Jesus says he fulfills the law, while Paul says Christ abolished it. We argue that Paul does not treat the Mosaic Law as binding legislation for the church, but as a source of wisdom, prophecy, and revelation that finds its fulfillment in Christ. What does obedience look like under the New Covenant, and what parts of the law still matter for Christians today?

This episode is a sweeping conversation that traces the Day of Atonement through the grand story of Scripture, connecting it back to Eden and forward to the redemptive work of Christ. The episode explores the tabernacle as a symbolic meeting point of heaven and earth while drawing out how Levitical law shapes a deeper understanding of the church’s identity and calling today.

In this episode, we walk through the book of Leviticus and explore the literary movement of the book, highlighting the coherence and brilliance of the law. We also discuss honor and shame culture in the ancient Near East and today, showing how it helps illuminate many of the practices and concerns in Leviticus. Finally, we consider how the book prepares the way for the atonement of Jesus and the New Testament vision of a community that fulfills the heart of the law.

Resuming our series on the Holy Spirit and the Charismatic church, we walk through 1 Corinthians 14, verse by verse, taking time to deal with all the major issues. What is speaking in tongues for? What is prophecy? And why can't Charismatics settle on a definition? Why do women preach at our church? And why does Paul say that they can't speak at Christian gatherings?

We explore charismatic worship by tracing its biblical roots and clarifying that “charismatic” isn’t about a certain aesthetic or volume level, but about a heart posture and Gospel-centered content in our songs. From the tent of David in the Old Testament to its fulfillment in the life of the Church, we unpack what it means to be filled with the Holy Spirit and how that reality shapes what and how we sing. Along the way, we thoughtfully compare charismatic worship with the Reformed regulative principle and Roman Catholic Eucharistic theology, highlighting real points of beauty and overlap while clearly explaining where and why we differ.

In this episode, we introduce the Holy Spirit by following His presence throughout the biblical narrative, from the opening chapters of Genesis to Revelation, setting the stage for a deeper upcoming series on charismatic theology. Along the way, we explore how He moves through Israel’s story, the ministry of the prophets, and the life and mission of Jesus. By the end, we argue that the sending of the Spirit is the fulfillment of God’s redemptive work, essential for the Cross to have its full meaning and for God’s renewing purpose to reshape all of creation.

In this episode, we turn to the Gospel of John to explore the striking tension between Jesus as the eternal Logos, God’s own Word who holds all things together, and Jesus as the Lamb of God who was overlooked, misunderstood, and rejected. As we walk through John’s temple scenes and bold “I am” declarations, we see how the true meaning of Jesus’ identity is revealed in His crucifixion, where the God we have always needed does the unthinkable and suffers for our sake.

In this episode, we dive into the Gospel of Luke to see how its Christmas story intentionally challenges Caesar Augustus’ claims to be the son of God, savior of the world, and bringer of peace, revealing Jesus as the true Savior and Spirit Giver. By reflecting on the hymns of Mary, Zechariah, and Simeon and the prophetic strangeness surrounding Jesus’ birth, we consider how Luke’s vision was meant to strengthen small and weary Christian communities with the hope that God’s Kingdom was already in their midst.

In the second episode of our Christmas series, we journey through the Gospel of Mark to explore the “Secret Messiah” motif and how it shapes the unfolding story of Jesus’ identity. Together, we trace the subtle clues and bold revelations that unveil Him as the Son of God — the Divine Savior at the heart of the season.

In this first episode of our four-part Christmas series, we explore how Matthew introduces Jesus through His genealogy, birth narrative, and the flight to Egypt. We talk through Matthew’s rich use of the Old Testament and how he presents Jesus as the promised king from David’s line who brings Abraham’s blessing to all nations. Ultimately, this episode highlights Matthew’s portrait of Jesus as the Son of God, God with us, who has come to save His people—and the whole world—from spiritual exile.

In this episode, we address the tension between God’s transcendence and immanence as it unfolds throughout Scripture, using Ezekiel and Isaiah as key examples— a tension ultimately resolved and clarified in the coming of Christ. We argue that the incarnation, humility, and sacrificial death of Christ reveal God’s true nature—not as a break from divinity, but its fullest display. Across the New Testament, this high Christology shines through Christ’s lowliness, culminating at the Cross.

This episode traces the story of sin—how it spreads, corrodes, and reshapes humanity from the very beginning. We explore how the incarnation and the life of Jesus enter that broken story to redeem and restore what sin has taken, offering hope where corruption once reigned.
