Uncaged Bible Podcast
Charles Spurgeon once said ”The word of God is like a caged lion. it does not need to be defended, it simply needs to be let out of its cage.” We aim to unlock the cage and unleash the scriptures from beginning to end to better grasp the authority, beauty and glory of God as He has revealed himself and His plan through the Holy Scriptures.

Sometimes the truth we need to hear isn't what we want to hear. Simeon warned Mary of future pain even in her joy. Like him, may we speak truth boldly, listen to the Holy Spirit clearly, and prioritize making disciples over our traditions. #Faith #Truth #Christmas
God didn't ask us to climb the ladder to reach Him. Instead, the infinite became finite—stepping from eternity. Jesus descended to us, while still upholding the universe. That's the miracle of Christmas.
What if God interrupted your ordinary life with something extraordinary?
Mary was just a teenage girl from nowhere Nazareth—poor, humble, living an average life. Then an angel appeared with news that would change everything: she would carry the Son of God. Her response? "Behold, the maidservant of the Lord. Let it be to me according to your word."
In that single moment of submission, darkness lost. A single cell in Mary's womb beca...
Jesus left heaven's glory to be born in a manger—not distant from our suffering, but entering into it. The shepherds who watched sacrificial lambs were first to see the Lamb of God. That's how much He loves you. Joy to the world—He came, and He's coming again.
Christ will dwell with His people forever. Ezekiel's temple vision shows Israel finally understanding what they missed—the Messiah among them, teaching through the very practices they misunderstood. The city's name says it all: "The Lord is there." #BiblicalProphecy
Even when you're participating in what is good, it won't always feel good. Mary raised Jesus, after being prophesied to by Simeon about the goodness of the Christ, he warned Mary that a deep sorrow would be part of the equation. Following Christ means sacrifice, but it's worth it—He has overcome the world. His birth was always about His sacrifice for us.
The peace of Christ isn't just about our past reconciliation with God—it's about our future hope. Jesus came as a child to give us peace with God through the cross. He's coming again as King to bring complete peace: no more tears, pain, or death. God will make all things new.
The Christmas story isn't just about a baby in a manger—it's about the God of the universe stepping out of His glory and into the most humble circumstances imaginable.
Think about this: Jesus didn't just sacrifice Himself during Passion Week. His sacrifice began at the incarnation. He left His rightful place in heaven, grew as a zygote and fetus, spent 30 years in obscurity as a carpenter in a town people looked down on, then three...
Facing your mortality reveals what you truly worship. King Ahaziah chose self over God, even at death's door. If you don't change, neither does your fate. Repentance equals life. The question for eternity: Will you put your faith in Jesus or yourself?
Ezekiel saw a future temple in stunning detail—yet it's never been built. With specific measurements, three entrances, and the glory of God entering from the east, this appears to be where Jesus will rule and reign forever. The millennial temple awaits its fulfillment.

What if God has positioned us exactly where we are for a specific purpose?
The book of Esther tells an incredible story of a young Jewish woman who became queen of Persia at precisely the right moment. When an evil advisor named Haman plotted to commit genocide against all the Jewish people, Esther's cousin Mordecai asked her a profound question: "Who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this?"
Esther had t...
God sees every injustice and will judge rightly. But here's the beauty: no one is too far gone for His grace. Even the most wicked king repented and received mercy. The punishment we deserve was paid on the cross. We get to extend that same grace to others. #Grace #Redemption
The book of Nehemiah isn't just about rebuilding walls. It's about setting God's prophetic clock in motion. When Nehemiah asked King Artaxerxes for permission to rebuild Jerusalem's walls in 445 BC, he unknowingly started a countdown that Daniel had predicted nearly 100 years earlier. Do the math and those 483 prophetic years land exactly on Palm Sunday, the day Jesus rode into Jerusalem as the chosen Lamb of God, according to the ...
Even when it looks like all the chips are down, when culture seems to be winning, when Christians face persecution, remember this truth: you're on the team that already defeated death. The enemy's strongest weapon has already been conquered.
Jesus told His disciples on the way to Gethsemane that the world would hate them just as it hated Him. He didn't promise an easy path. He promised persecution. But He also promised victory. If ...
Ever feel like you're doing everything right for God, but then one setback sends you spiraling into despair? You're not alone.
This week we looked at Elijah – the prophet who just defeated 850 false prophets, called down fire from heaven, and watched an entire nation turn back to God. Epic victory, right? Then he gets one threatening letter from Queen Jezebel and runs for his life, hiding in a cave, begging God to let him die.
Mayb...
We often measure significance by size, beauty, or worldly standards. But heaven sees things completely differently.
The rebuilt temple in Jerusalem looked shabby compared to Solomon's magnificent structure. The people who built it were disappointed, thinking they had failed God. Yet that "lesser" temple became the very place where Jesus walked, taught, and ultimately brought peace to all mankind.
An unnamed usher at a revival meeti...
Standing for truth isn't always safe, but it's always right. Like Elijah facing 450 false prophets alone, God calls us to confront corruption with courage. You're not isolated—God is with you. Embrace the holy, cut off the wicked, and persevere. Faith requires risk.
#Faith #Courage #Elijah #Sermon
The prophet Ezekiel gives us one of the most fascinating glimpses into the future of Israel and God's protective power. After centuries of exile, Israel is regathered, the land becomes fruitful again, and the nation dwells in peace and prosperity. But then comes an unexpected attack.
A leader called Gog gathers a coalition of nations—potentially including modern-day Turkey, Iran, Libya, Ethiopia or Sudan, and possibly Russia—to inv...
October 31st. A date wrapped in controversy, celebration, and Christian history. Every year the questions come flooding in about Halloween, and every year the answers remain the same: it's complicated, but it doesn't have to divide us.
Here's what most people don't know: the earliest documented origins of Halloween come from the church, not from paganism. All Hallows Eve, the night before All Saints Day, was established by the Cath...
When life doesn't make sense and you're at the end of your rope—that might be exactly where God needs you.
Elijah's story reminds us that God doesn't have to meet us on our terms or where we feel comfortable. He sent his prophet out of hiding, across dangerous territory, to the homeland of his enemies, to be sustained by a starving widow with only enough food for one last meal.
It made no sense. But God's gifts are often found in u...

The Burden is a documentary series that takes listeners into the hidden places where justice is done (and undone). It dives deep into the lives of heroes and villains. And it focuses a spotlight on those who triumph even when the odds are against them. Season 5 - The Burden: Death & Deceit in Alliance On April Fools Day 1999, 26-year-old Yvonne Layne was found murdered in her Alliance, Ohio home. David Thorne, her ex-boyfriend and father of one of her children, was instantly a suspect. Another young man admitted to the murder, and David breathed a sigh of relief, until the confessed murderer fingered David; “He paid me to do it.” David was sentenced to life without parole. Two decades later, Pulitzer winner and podcast host, Maggie Freleng (Bone Valley Season 3: Graves County, Wrongful Conviction, Suave) launched a “live” investigation into David's conviction alongside Jason Baldwin (himself wrongfully convicted as a member of the West Memphis Three). Maggie had come to believe that the entire investigation of David was botched by the tiny local police department, or worse, covered up the real killer. Was Maggie correct? Was David’s claim of innocence credible? In Death and Deceit in Alliance, Maggie recounts the case that launched her career, and ultimately, “broke” her.” The results will shock the listener and reduce Maggie to tears and self-doubt. This is not your typical wrongful conviction story. In fact, it turns the genre on its head. It asks the question: What if our champions are foolish? Season 4 - The Burden: Get the Money and Run “Trying to murder my father, this was the thing that put me on the path.” That’s Joe Loya and that path was bank robbery. Bank, bank, bank, bank, bank. In season 4 of The Burden: Get the Money and Run, we hear from Joe who was once the most prolific bank robber in Southern California, and beyond. He used disguises, body doubles, proxies. He leaped over counters, grabbed the money and ran. Even as the FBI was closing in. It was a showdown between a daring bank robber, and a patient FBI agent. Joe was no ordinary bank robber. He was bright, articulate, charismatic, and driven by a dark rage that he summoned up at will. In seven episodes, Joe tells all: the what, the how… and the why. Including why he tried to murder his father. Season 3 - The Burden: Avenger Miriam Lewin is one of Argentina’s leading journalists today. At 19 years old, she was kidnapped off the streets of Buenos Aires for her political activism and thrown into a concentration camp. Thousands of her fellow inmates were executed, tossed alive from a cargo plane into the ocean. Miriam, along with a handful of others, will survive the camp. Then as a journalist, she will wage a decades long campaign to bring her tormentors to justice. Avenger is about one woman’s triumphant battle against unbelievable odds to survive torture, claim justice for the crimes done against her and others like her, and change the future of her country. Season 2 - The Burden: Empire on Blood Empire on Blood is set in the Bronx, NY, in the early 90s, when two young drug dealers ruled an intersection known as “The Corner on Blood.” The boss, Calvin Buari, lived large. He and a protege swore they would build an empire on blood. Then the relationship frayed and the protege accused Calvin of a double homicide which he claimed he didn’t do. But did he? Award-winning journalist Steve Fishman spent seven years to answer that question. This is the story of one man’s last chance to overturn his life sentence. He may prevail, but someone’s gotta pay. The Burden: Empire on Blood is the director’s cut of the true crime classic which reached #1 on the charts when it was first released half a dozen years ago. Season 1 - The Burden In the 1990s, Detective Louis N. Scarcella was legendary. In a city overrun by violent crime, he cracked the toughest cases and put away the worst criminals. “The Hulk” was his nickname. Then the story changed. Scarcella ran into a group of convicted murderers who all say they are innocent. They turned themselves into jailhouse-lawyers and in prison founded a lway firm. When they realized Scarcella helped put many of them away, they set their sights on taking him down. And with the help of a NY Times reporter they have a chance. For years, Scarcella insisted he did nothing wrong. But that’s all he’d say. Until we tracked Scarcella to a sauna in a Russian bathhouse, where he started to talk..and talk and talk. “The guilty have gone free,” he whispered. And then agreed to take us into the belly of the beast. Welcome to The Burden.
