Ep. 69- -Matthew 14.22-36 by Beer and BibleΑπό τον Beer and Bible

Take a step out of church (or keep avoiding it), and let's read this story with a different spin - Jesus feed 5,000 "powerless" people and we discuss a different path Jesus could have taken in become a religious/politcal figure in the first century Roman Empire. As always, you'll learn a little, maybe laugh a little.…

Well, this is an interesting story, but it gets dark. Apologies in advance. This does not have a good ending.Από τον Beer and Bible

Alright trying something new this year with a practice for answering questions, completely un-researched, but you get raw thoughts from Chris and Neil. the first question comes from our Co-Questioner Cynthia, asking us to retell our favorite Bible stories.Από τον Beer and Bible

Last time we focused on Mary, now we're looking at what Joseph's options in the story. . . Let's face it, in this story, God put them in a REALLY difficult situation.Από τον Beer and Bible

According to the Torah (the first five books of the Jewish Tanakh and the Christian Bible), If a woman is engaged to man and has sex with another man prior to the wedding, both the man and woman should be put to death.This makes things a bit tricky considering God came up with the plan of having an engaged carry the messiah to term in a culture tha…

Ep. 64- Parables on Mustard and Sourdough set to Minivan Rock- Matthew 13.31-42 by Beer and BibleΑπό τον Beer and Bible

This time we get into the WEEDS a bit. ahahaha. ugh . . .anyways, we cover another one of the parables in Matthew and chat it up about this weird passage, and continuously get off track and talk about Satan.Από τον Beer and Bible

Sometimes we wonder how much you'll get out of this when we probably provide more questions than answers. . . BUT, maybe you will find a few entertaining stories, such as Chris talking about his son reading through the book of Revelation.Από τον Beer and Bible

This time we are introducing the "parables" - a section of teaching in Matthew where Jesus gives short stories/allegories for his audience to drive home a concept.Από τον Beer and Bible

Chris and Neil give their tips on how to read the Bible if you are curious, but not really into this religion. There's a lot out there on how to read the bible as a Christian, but not much out there on how to read an ancient text for fun/education.Από τον Beer and Bible

Christmas Special 2022 - Part 2 - Herod: When Killing toddlers isn't the worst thing you've done. by Beer and BibleΑπό τον Beer and Bible

Okay, WAAAAAYYY late, but we thought this one was worth getting into and learning about. Join Chris on an alcohol soaked adventure through the history of KING HEROD. King Herod? Part of the Christmas story is the king over Judea at the time that tried MURDERING TODDLERS. Some how soldiers brandishing tools of death never make it into the lawn/mante…

Another episode of interest. We continue in the Gospel of Matthew with another story of Jesus messing with the Pharisees' expectation of proper Sabbath behavior, but this time instead of it being about eating and harvesting, it's about whether or not it's okay to do "good" on the Sabbath.Από τον Beer and Bible

This is wild; Neil is in the passenger seat as Chris takes the wheel and teaches us about his own research into Demons in the Tanakh, or what many Christians call "the Old Testament." it's a wild ride that gets pretty crazy, but we hope you enjoy.If you were looking for a stronger more Jewish based, scholarly understanding, you've come to the WRONG…

Oh man, this is going to sound like a repeat of Episode 2, but it is in a different universe/timeline or whatever (think Sony vs. Disney Spiderman movies . . . Or Michael Keaton vs. Christian Bale Batman movies). this time we focus more on the Rabbinic discussions and exemptions on the Sabbath and some interpretations you could use to look at this.…

Ep. 55 - Woes and Fitting Yokes - Matthew 11.20-30 by Beer and BibleΑπό τον Beer and Bible

Here we go; after a long break waiting for my computer to get fixed, we have the latest (maybe not greatest) episode of Beer and Bible. This picks up from last episode and we highly recommend listening to that before getting into this episode. Originally this was supposed to be a fairly short podcast on 9 verses but we were sufficiently distracted.…

It's been a hot minute since we last saw John the Baptizer. . .We've just sent the disciples out to the people, so Jesus stays up North and gets word from John's crew asking him if he (Jesus) is the real deal, or if they are looking for another revolutionary. And Jesus, (as is his way), gives a really weird non-answer . . that still answers the que…

Here we get Jesus describing the persecution ,and we talk a little bit about the crucifixion practices and Nero's musical career.Από τον Beer and Bible

What happens when the Bible isn't exactly accurate? We continue talking about the "Apostles" and how this section isn't 100% in order/correct in how Western people of the 21st century expect.Από τον Beer and Bible

This has the most click-bait opening of our podcasts so far. Enjopy.Από τον Beer and Bible

If there was ever an episode where we lose a few listeners, this is it. It's wild, and it covers the immaculate conception.Από τον Beer and Bible

We wrap up the story of the disciples and talk a bit abut what they've been commissioned to do. Some of this is based in strong evidence and tradition, while the rest is adventurous speculation steeped in an IPA.Από τον Beer and Bible

We continue talking about the apostles some more. We really try and give a sense of what these guys are like, which isn't quite what Sunday school or Youth group gives. Just guys in their 20's following a charismatic leader. No matter how I say this, it always seems like a cult. Which, I guess it kinda is?…

Ever wondered what the word "Apostle" means? Is that some weird church word? We look into Jesus sending out HIS "apostles" where the word came from, and the first two apostles. We bring in some pop culture, getting music suggestions from Chris, talking about Ghostbusters, and Robert Duvall's 1997 Performance.…

Here we go - this time we are closing out this section of Matthew (chapters 8-9) and rounding everything out, and more of Chris's drunken commentary.Από τον Beer and Bible

Here we go - you'll get a little bit of Chris's great parenting. Enjoy the weirdness as we talk about Jesus healing some blind people.Από τον Beer and Bible

An update from the hosts. Over the summer we tried recording, but the episodes recorded (all on Matthew) did not record correctly and were not something we could salvage.If you are wanting more bible, I would recommend skipping this episode. . . .But if you want to know about what we're up to, enjoy. We will be back with Matthew shortly. Thanks for…
