Description

Conversations involving faith are often fraught with scholarly nerd alerts about ancient linguistics and inaccessible theological discussions centered around hermeneutics. But what if there was a way to use your pop culture literacy to enhance your biblical literacy? Welcome to Faith Adjacent, the podcast where we try to understand the modern dynamics of faith through a combined commitment to uncomfortable honesty, authentic weirdness, and critical thinking. Faith Adjacent is hosted by Knox McCoy and Jamie Golden of The Popcast along with Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon.

probably the worst podcast I have heard. to call yourselves the bible podcast and put this episode out is truly unfortunate. it isn't biblical and is complete heresy.

You do realise there are other religions. There where other religions before Christianity. There where other God's before the Christian God. So I ask you, why is this The God I must choose to believe in? Why is this the religion I must obey and if I don't, I spend the after life in hell? Serious question.

I seriously have had the, " We don't do that, so we put you in hospitality to do baby showers and bridal showers. " Which you don't know me, but I felt called to more like a prison ministry. So yeah, kind of different. So, I appreciate hearing others have gone through that.

my 1st experience with this podcast, 5 ⭐ one suggestion: Since the entire world at the time of Jesus was an Honor/Shame culture, how this story would be seen in that context. Honor was mentioned, but contrast it to Shame, thanks you are the best

Hello, First, i would like to tell you, i love your show. i literally laugh out loud every episode. I would how ever like to offer my insights on this episode. You mention more than once that there are only 2 Angel's named in the Bible. This is incorrect, there are 3. Gabriel, (we know) Daniel 9:21 Luke 1:19 Luke 1:26 Micheal, (we also know) Daniel 12:1 Jude 9 Revelation 12:7 and.....(drum roll) Lucifer, (before the his fall) Isaiah 14:12-15 (the only passage that gives his name) Ezekiel 28:15-17 ( gives a brief description of his role before the fall) Now, I would also like to offer my thoughts on casting. Since Gabriel is always talking when he shows up, I thought Jim Carry would be good. For Michael, I thought Russell Crow would be a great fit. And for angel Lucifer, Paul Ryan.

I'm so happy to have found this podcast! When your last season ended I was so sad and couldn't wait for this season to start up! I'm currently going through a period in my life where I'm kind of lost and feel anxious about my future. But this story came up at just the right time and I felt like the message was for me!
