In this episode, Jake and Kev are breaking down a heavily misunderstood passage from 1 Thessalonians. They’re tackling the common assumption that because Christians are called to "avoid all appearances of evil," then the appearance of evil is just as sinful as the act itself. J...
We're backkkkk!
As we kick off our summer season on misinterpreted Scripture, Jake and Kev take us into the heart of the Third Commandment. Most theological misunderstandings aren’t just about bad words—they miss the author’s original intent.
