You already know the Samaritans. Or you think you do. The Good Samaritan, the woman at the well, a word that's come to mean someone who helps a stranger. But we mostly learned the ending without the beginning. Who were t

Jesus said it at a place everyone in the room already knew by name: the Gates of Hell. Not a metaphor. An actual location—a cave in a cliff face at Caesarea Philippi, where a spring emerged from deep underground and anci
We read Genesis 18 as a hospitality story. Three visitors show up, Abraham feeds them, Sarah laughs behind the tent flap. But there's more going on under the surface than most of us were ever taught. When the three stran
Egypt is the Bible's most underappreciated main character. And the story doesn't end when Israel walks out of it. The Egypt we usually picture—the Egypt of Pharaoh, of plagues, of Hebrew slaves making bricks—got conquere
Moses is one of the most familiar figures in all of Scripture. That familiarity is exactly the problem. The Moses we think we know—confident, chosen, called from birth—isn't really the Moses the text gives us. The actual

By Genesis 41, Joseph looks nothing like the boy his brothers sold into slavery. Egyptian name. Egyptian wife from Egypt's most powerful priestly family. Second-in-command of the most dominant empire in the ancient world
Two Hebrew midwives stand in Pharaoh's throne room. The most powerful man in the ancient world just asked them a question: Why are Hebrew baby boys still alive? And Shiphrah and Puah look him in the eye and lie. In this
What does it feel like to trust an invisible God when the visible gods seem to work? For 400 years, the Hebrews lived under Egypt's theological shadow. The Nile flooded like clockwork. The harvests came. Egypt's gods had
Everyone went to Egypt during famine. Abraham went. Isaac almost went (God stopped him). Jacob’s family went—and 400 years later, their descendants couldn’t leave. Why? Because Egypt worked. The Nile flooded predictably
You've seen Egypt in Sunday school flannelgraphs. You've seen it in The Prince of Egypt. You've heard it reduced to "the bad guys" in the Exodus story. But what if almost everything you think you know about Egypt is wron
The Old Testament often feels confusing, outdated, or easy to sidestep, but Jesus never treated it that way. So why does it still matter? In this introductory episode of You’ve Heard It Said, we explore why the Old Testa
Christmas didn’t become big business by accident. It became big business because it already meant something. So how did a sacred season turn into a cultural industry? And what did we lose—and gain—along the way? In this
Much of the Christmas we recognize today didn’t come from the early church or the ancient world of Rome. It came—quietly and over centuries—from German Christianity. From St. Nicholas to Advent wreaths, Christmas trees,
Christmas hasn’t always been cozy, sentimental, or universally loved. In fact, for a few centuries, Christians themselves cancelled it. From Puritan crackdowns in England to a full legal ban in colonial Boston—and even C
If Christmas is so important, why isn’t it in the Bible? In this pilot episode of You’ve Heard It Said, we trace how December 25 became the most celebrated day in the Christian calendar—without appearing anywhere in Scri
