  1. Why Jesus Says We Must Receive The Kingdom Like a Child (Luke 18)

    FEB 3 · BONUS

    Why Jesus Says We Must Receive The Kingdom Like a Child (Luke 18)

    What does it mean to receive the Kingdom of God like a child? In this episode of The Chorus in the Chaos, Jack walks through Luke 18:15–17, where Jesus rebukes His disciples and welcomes infants and children, declaring that “to such belongs the kingdom of God.” Far from being a sentimental moment, this passage reveals something profound about humility, faith, and how salvation works. This episode also asks a hard but necessary question: How might we—parents, churches, and Christians—be hindering children from coming to Jesus today? Along the way, we examine: - Why Jesus prioritizes children and rebukes His own disciples - How pride and self-reliance block the gospel - Why children are a “canary in the coal mine” for cultural health - Five practical ways adults can hinder (or help) children come to Christ - Why salvation is received, not achieved - What it really means to trust God like a child Whether you’re a parent, pastor, or simply wrestling with faith and trust, this episode calls us to lay down pride, abandon self-confidence, and receive the gospel with humility, joy, and faith. Key Scripture References: Luke 18:15–17 Luke 18:9–14 (Pharisee and Tax Collector) Luke 18:18–23 (Rich Young Ruler) Connect Website & Blog: www.chorusinthechaos.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chorusinthec...

  2. S04E03 Spiritualism (Part 2) - The Appeal, The Danger, and The Biblical Answer

    S04E03 Spiritualism (Part 2) - The Appeal, The Danger, and The Biblical Answer

    Why does spiritism hold such a powerful grip on people — especially during times of grief, fear, and uncertainty? In this episode, Blake and Grayson continue their American Cults series by examining the appeal of Spiritism, why Scripture consistently forbids it, and how it distorts good, God-given desires for eternity, comfort, and knowledge. Through biblical teaching and pastoral reflection, they explore: Why humanity longs for life beyond death The dangers of seeking revelation without repentance Saul and the Witch of Endor (1 Samuel 28) How spiritism traps the grieving rather than healing them Why Christ alone defeats death and removes its fear Spiritism offers promises it can never keep. The Gospel offers resurrection, peace, and hope that does not fade.   Connect Website & Blog: www.chorusinthechaos.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chorusinthec...

    S04E02: Spiritualism (Part 1) - America’s Obsession with Speaking to the Dead

    In this episode of The Chorus in the Chaos, Jack and Blake dive into one of America’s most unusual and influential cult movements: the rise of spiritualism in the 19th century. Beginning with a biblical narrative—the chilling account of Saul and the Witch of Endor—the episode moves through the dramatic story of the Fox Sisters, the national craze for seances, and the cultural wounds left open by the Civil War. You’ll discover how spiritualism promised comfort in a time of uncertainty, why it grew so quickly, and even how magician Harry Houdini became its most vocal opponent. Blending historical storytelling, cultural analysis, and theological clarity, this episode shines a light on a movement that still shapes modern (evil) ideas about mediums, ghosts, and “communicating with the dead.”   Connect Website & Blog: www.chorusinthechaos.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chorusinthec...

    From Tudor Drama to Turkey Dinner: How We Got Thanksgiving (Part 2)

    In Part 2 of our Thanksgiving bonus series, Blake and Jack pick up the story with the Pilgrims themselves—the Separatist congregation from Scrooby who fled England, suffered betrayals, survived storms, endured heartbreak, and ultimately crossed the Atlantic in one of history’s most remarkable journeys of faith. In this episode, we trace their escape attempts from England, their difficult 11-year stay in Leiden, the economic and cultural pressures they faced, and the providential chain of events that drove them to sail for the New World, from the disastrous Speedwell, to the treacherous Mayflower crossing, to the first contacts with the Wampanoag, Squanto’s astonishing backstory, the devastating first winter, and finally the feast that would one day inspire Thanksgiving....including a totally true and not dramatized version of how Turkey got involved. If you want to understand Thanksgiving—not the simplified version you learned in elementary school, but the providential and theologically rich version—this episode is for you.

    From Tudor Drama to Turkey Dinner: How We Got Thanksgiving (Part 1)

    In this special two-part Thanksgiving bonus episode, Blake and Jack take listeners on a fast-moving, 30,000-foot flyover of the wild, chaotic, and faith-shaping events that led to the Pilgrims boarding the Mayflower and eventually celebrating what we call the First Thanksgiving. Before the Mayflower ever touched the shores of the New World, England endured a century of political turmoil, religious reform, royal power struggles, public executions, and theological awakening. From Henry VIII’s messy pursuit of an annulment, to Edward VI’s Protestant reforms, to the brutal burnings under Bloody Mary, to Elizabeth’s uneasy religious compromise, and finally to King James and his push for conformity—this episode explores the real forces that shaped the Puritans and the Separatists, and ultimately birthed the Pilgrim story. This episode aims to help you see Thanksgiving with fresh eyes and a deeper appreciation for the believers who risked everything to pursue biblical worship.   Connect Website & Blog: www.chorusinthechaos.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chorusinthec...

    S04E01 American Cults 101:What is a Cult?

    Summary Season 4 launches with a field guide to American cults: where they came from, how they function, and what sets them apart from orthodox Christianity. We lay out our two-episode rhythm for each movement (history + doctrine) and explain why this isn’t just academic—these are the folks knocking on your door and sitting in your break room. Highlights Walter Martin’s working definition of a cult The 1830–1890 surge in the Northeast and the “Burned-Over District” First vs. Second Great Awakening—and how Finney’s “new measures” influenced later errors Doctrinal markers: denial of the Trinity, diminished view of Christ, extra-biblical revelation Sociological markers: authoritarian leadership, information control, us-vs-them identity, behavioral rules, shunning, apocalyptic urgency Works/loyalty systems vs. the gospel of grace The real cost of leaving—and how Christians can care well Connect Website & Blog: www.chorusinthechaos.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chorusinthec...
