    Stop Making Christian Art?

    In this episode, Cody and Bradley ask a deceptively simple question: Should there even be such a thing as “Christian art” or a “Christian music industry”? Using recent comments from Islander frontman Mikey Carvajal as a starting point, they discuss the difference between a Christian making art and art that is explicitly Christian, the problems that come with turning faith into a marketing category, and whether the answer is to abandon the label altogether. Along the way, they talk about Christian music as both ministry and industry, the danger of using “Christian” as an excuse for mediocre work, the biblical place of explicitly faith-filled art, and what it looks like for Christians to glorify God through craftsmanship, music, business, and vocation. The question isn’t whether every Christian artist needs to make “Christian art.” It’s whether Christians can make excellent work without either hiding their faith or turning it into a brand.

    Creeping Death: Metallica, Exodus, and the Judgment of God

    In this episode, Cody is joined by his dad, Stan “Padre” Fields, to dig into the biblical story behind Metallica’s “Creeping Death.” They walk through the song’s retelling of the Exodus, the final plague, Passover, and the judgment of Egypt—and look at where Metallica’s lyrics track closely with the biblical text, where artistic license takes over, and why one of thrash metal’s most famous songs is also an unusually vivid retelling of Scripture. Along the way, they discuss judgment, deliverance, the fear of God, and what happens when biblical imagery escapes the walls of the church and finds its way into heavy metal.

    How Should Christians Use the Imprecatory Psalms?

    In this episode, Cody and Bradley explore the difficult subject of the imprecatory Psalms—prayers that call for God’s judgment against evil and evildoers. They consider how these passages fit with Jesus’ command to love our enemies, examine biblical examples of praying for justice, and discuss how Christians can use these Psalms faithfully in personal prayer and church liturgy without slipping into bitterness or personal vengeance.

    Artificial intelligence is advancing at a staggering pace, but what does Scripture have to say about it? In this episode, Cody Fields explores the rapid growth of AI, the controversy surrounding massive data centers, and the biblical distinction between stewardship and dominion.

    The God Who Heals Through Miracles—and Medicine

    What role do miracles, medicine, and God's sovereignty play in healing? In this episode of the Doxology Podcast, we discuss the relationship between divine healing and ordinary means, sharing personal experiences ranging from LASIK surgery to serious bacterial infections. Along the way, we explore how Christians should think about medical treatment, prayer, providence, and the ways God works through both miraculous intervention and everyday means.

We wrestle with these questions while emphasizing God's absolute sovereignty over every aspect of life, health, and recovery.
