Burn the HaystackContext, Context, Context (Reading Scripture Responsibly)This week, Josh and Jesse talk all about context, exegesis, and eisegesis! In order to truly understand the story of the Bible, we first need to understand the original context that produced the Bible. So today, we touch on the process by which we discover that original context, as well as giving you a few tools to help you discover it for yourself.
Tools for Exegeting Scripture
A few good translations (one that you use primarily as well as a few to provide counterpoint/contrast). We recommend as a starting point: ESV, CEB, NIV, NLT, MSG, and...2020-08-111h 08

Burn the HaystackFinding Grace in Old Testament SacrificeIn our final installment of our series on Grace in the Old Testament, Josh and Jesse talk about sacrifice. It's a staple throughout the OT narrative, from Genesis to Jesus, Abraham and his descendants sacrificed. In times of peace and times of war, millions of animals over the course of thousands of years were sacrificed to Yahweh. What can we make of this? Is God an advocate for animal cruelty, or is there something else at work here?

Burn the HaystackGrace in the Old TestamentThis week, Josh and Jesse talk about one of the most oft-asked issues people have with the Bible: the seeming huge emphasis on grace in the New Testament, and the seeming lack thereof in the old. This is going to start a conversation about the perceived lack of grace and love in the Old Testament, and how maybe there's more grace than first meets the eye.

Big Town Improv3. Detective Lawyer: Special Goose Unit and Jesse's WeddingBased on real listener suggestions, Jesse tells Josh about his formative year traveling the country in an RV with his family, which leads to an improvised montage of scenes about a killer goose, a strangely self-aware bigot, and a bizarre new NBC detective drama. Then, in an extended narrative improv, Josh tells a series of escalating lies in order to avoid attending Jesse's wedding!

Burn the HaystackBeth Moore vs John MacArthurShow Notes In light of our conversation about women in ministry, new expressions of Christianity, and the constant struggle between established power structures and emerging voices in the Christian space, we thought it appropriate to address a recent controversy.
Popular preacher, author, and "theologian" (quotations added) John MacArthur recently made some provocative statements directed to another popular preacher and author: Beth Moore. Specifically, he said that she should 'go home,' that she is 'narcissistic,' and that just because she's skilled at 'selling makeup,' does not mean she should be allowed to preach. Yep, it's a doozy...2019-11-2058 min

Burn the HaystackFemale Pastors, Gender Roles, and the ChurchThis week, Josh and Jesse tackle one of the more controversial topics of our church today - women and pastoral ministry. Currently in the Seventh-day Adventist Church, women can not be ordained into pastoral ministry. The guys have refrained from tackling this issue head-on until now, so enjoy our take on ordination, women in ministry, and how gender plays into the church's mission.
