This eventually had to happen: a podcast on hell and everything you ever needed to know about this Biblical Prison of a Wasteland. From what Rock Musicians have to say about it to its location based on Buffy the Vampire Slayer - it's all here. Best to bring your own waterbottle.

We all survived 2024 - well? most of us. Here's a year end lock back on all the good and bad that just happened: from new bibles to old celebrities, lost empires and vacation hot spots. Then we jam into the new year. God Bless.

It's time for a Gospel Music album review. Seldom does a great Outlaw Gospel album come out that's worthy of a Bible Outlaw podcast: but this one is exceptional of course. Let's look and listen for hardcore theology and musicianship from Anne's 2nd major release. I hope you love it like I do. Enjoy - and buy it for someone for Christmas.

Yes indeed, God Bless us rebellious theologians who dare dig for truth at all costs. Oh Yeah! There's some street credibility in being the most Outlaw thinker in the room (or church). So If God has blessed you with this desire and career/hobby path - then HANG ON --- it might get bumpy. But the truth of God's Word is worth it. Jesus needs a few of us so that Christianity doesn't get too comfortable. This week on the Bible Outlaw

Well, there's lots of endtimes predictions being caste about. I better get in on the game and keep relevant at least. This episode discusses Solar Eclipses and Blood Moons and Hordes of locusts (or Cicadas?) and essential Hollywood movies on this topic. Or, will life just go on as usual? Let's see what the band R.E.M. has to say on this topic. Enjoy!

Here's every verse in the Bible that tells us about the Outlaw Joseph - enough to make him the official Christmas Outlaw. It was basically the Wild West of the middle east circa A.D. 01.. Just a Cowboy protecting his wife and son from surrounding evil. Enjoy! and Merry Christmas.

Few discuss it - but there was indeed a war in heaven. The Book of Revelation has a chapter about it... well, it mentions it briefly in chapter 12 anyway. So let's see what the rest of the bible has to say about this cosmic battlefied and the characters involved. What does this mean for us humans?

Well, I had to do a rapture podcast eventually. It's a rather enjoyable subject with more than a few Bible verses to keep it deeply theological. And of course I'll spill in some Pop-culture references and prophecies to boot. Hang on - the END might be near.

What should we do with that old (VERY OLD) commandment to rest/worship? on the Sabbath? Did the church somehow get confused over the centuries and make an error in switching worship from Saturday to Sunday? Or worse - will God still kill us for this (like he did to "stick collecting guy")? I did some research. A LOT of research. Enjoy.

So why would an outlaw become a Christian? Because even outlaws have a code and need something to make sense of their reality. A lawless existence would be meaningless and its universe wouldn't be worth living in. The Bible has a lot to say about this - and the Biblical God gave us the 10 commandments to deal with specifically this issue. Then the Thief on the Cross brought it all home. Enjoy!

Time to study John's 2nd letter to the Elect lady, or is that the church? Or perhaps a mistress? or just some special lady and her tots. We'll study this short letter and see what we can learn and figure out. God certainly thought it was special enough to be preserved through the ages. Enjoy.

The Book of life is mentioned more than a few times throughout the Old and New Testament. Can you be blotted out of it - or inked into it? Well, God has a few things to hint at about this strange collection and its contents. Let's explore every single passage that the Bible mentions about it - and see if it's as big and scary as the Harry Potter "Monster Book of Monsters".

It's 2023, time to achieve some new goals - like switching from Itunes to Amazon Music (small victories). But i'm also looking for a new church for my family, and the Apostle John made a list of church challenges in his Book of Revelation. So let's use it to see what I should look for while church shopping. Hint: Lukewarm churches are a bad idea.

Have you heard of that peculiar moment in the Gospel of Mark (during Jesus' arrest in the garden of Gethsemane) where a young man escapes from the angry mob and leaves all his clothes behind? Why is it in the bible? What can we possibly learn from this? Is this information useful? I say yes. Extremely useful - and fun. Enjoy!

Thomas "The Disciple" spent three years with Jesus, and he saw it all. There was no reason for him to doubt anything about Jesus - and yet he did. We haven't spent three years with Jesus - and yet we are called "blessed" for believing without seeing. God has given us faith and logic to overcome doubt. There's no reason to believe anything else.

Let's fully learn about the book/letter of James. It's all about having faith and acting on it. Unlike the demons, we are to tame that tongue and not act worldly. We've got better things to do - instructions sent directly from God. Here's some new testament wisdom for living like a 21st century Christian or Jew.

Let's look back at my book review of Avi Steinberg's The Lost Book Of Mormon. It’s a hilarious travelogue that deserves to be discussed - because anytime an author writes a religious/comedy offering, it's worthy of a Bible Outlaw critique. From this we can learn about Avi's time spent tracing the pilgrimage of historical Mormon characters from the middle east to north america - and we might just step in some stinky theology along the way. Be sure to wash your feet afterwords....

A few years ago, the Mars Hill Church in Seattle Washington imploded from within. The Christian world quickly blamed the pastor for being a bully. That was a huge part of it, but the entire church should have held him accountable for his actions - before it was too late. Let's have a quick look at what happened, and see if we can learn anything for ourselves. We'll also check in on some biblical wisdom from Moses, Jethro and Paul that should help guide our churches.

Welcome (again) to the Bible Outlaw podcast. In this first ever episode, we meet your trail guide, and explore outlaw characters in, out and around the Bible: from William Tyndale to Wyatt Earp! I re-recorded my first episode (it's almost 3 years old). So enjoy! Have a listen if you got the time. Then I'll start off a new season.

Here's my introduction to the dusty, dangerous world you are about to enter. If something or somebody mentions the Bible - I plan to deal with it. There's no going back now, so buckle up!

Every day I come across internet media that informs me of what specifically is wrong with my Christianity. But what's really wrong is that very few seem capable of properly defining this "Christianity" that they're evaluating. So let's see what exactly IT IS - and explore if it's really broken or faulty in any way. And we'll compare it to fast cars and sports, just to see if folks are being fair.

The world has gone insane over the right to murder infants in the womb. Does the Bible have much to say on this issue? Hell yes! And so does the toughest female missionary who ever lived: Amy Carmichael.

So what do we instantly recall about the minor prophet Joel and his short "3 chapter" book? Be honest... almost nothing. Some might know that the Apostle Peter quoted him and got charismatics all excited for 2,000 years. But Joel's point is really that a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad day, is about to come for the people God doesn't tolerate. There's lots to learn about this theme that runs through much of the Bible.

Once every few years a rather great Gospel album actually gets made. Do not miss this one - it really is that good. So here's my Bible Outlaw appreciation and review of Anne Wilson's MY JESUS. Probably won't be another one till Jesus comes back (or Anne hires me to play guitar and we make a live album at the Royal Albert Hall... let's not get ahead of ourselves). Just in case, "Anne, here's my phone number: it's 1-604...."

Remember back in March of 1997, when 39 hardcore religious/Star Trek fans did their darnedest to catch up with a spaceship travelling on the tail of the Hale-Bopp comet by killing themselves to get to the celestial heavenly kingdom? Well, incase you missed it - here's everything you need to know and even how the Bible was lightly involved in this mayhem. Hang on for a ride through the cosmos... ummmh, that never quite happened. As far as we know.

Here's another religious book that I reviewed, "Jim and Casper Go to Church". A somewhat liberal-progressive church expert drags an atheist to a few famous churches and we get to read about it. Fun stuff eh? So what did they learn --- and what do I think of their conclusions? Well, you can probably guess already. Enjoy!

Someone wrote a book called, "the Gospel according to the Beatles". Well, pretty much zero biblical christianity was buried in that rubbish - but Alice Cooper (the villain of Rock and Roll) actually has more biblical gospel than most realize. Since i've been a huge fan of Alice for almost 40 years, let's spend an episode discussing any value or merit this debaucherous rockstar might possess. Some of it might surprise you.

Let's fully read Paul's last written letter - written in AD 67. Is there enough there to keep Christians from joining cults and following false prophets? It appears so. It's personal and brutally theological all at the same time. Good-bye Paul - God speed, good soldier. I'll see you in heaven.

Does God not know all the crazy human insanities happening on the planet? Isn't He paying attention? Oh yeah! He gave us a 1,000 page book all about it - nothing new under the sun. Maybe we should turn to it before, during, and after "we humans" make a colossal mess of everything. Nah. We'll just assume we're the good guys and everyone else is bad. We'll pray for peace and save the day. But Jeremiah had some dangerous writings about this in the Old Testament. Let&ap...

Well, it's time to discuss covid and politics and me being a Canadian truck driver AND Nascar. Yes!~ I'm posting this on the Daytona 500 weekend (don't tell me who won - i'm not done watching it yet) Let's deal with Kings throughout the entire Bible. From Adam & Eve to King Jesus to the Anti-christ ruling from Babylon. What are these power-mad monarchies up to exactly --- and how does it affect us today.
