    The Eben-Ezer

    The Eben-Ezer

    Standing on the edge of the chaotic primordial waters, the son of the High God beheld the vast expanse that spread before him.  With the terrible dragon, its fiery wrath vanquished and subdued, he could now turn his gaze towards the monumental task that lay ahead- the creation of his cosmic kingdom, but what would his inaugural creation be?  Among the endless array of possibilities, the divine architect set his focus upon one particular building project, but what was it?   Remarkably, the peoples of the ancient world tell the same story of what he built first.  Join us as we dive into the annals of the ancient world and unearth the answer…because, surprisingly, it has everything to do with Ebenezer…yes, that Ebenezer…Ebenezer Scrooge.

Garden of Eden

I learned so much from this episode from the Garden of Eden. It clarifies and expounds what I can glean from temple worship.

My Eyes Have Been Opened

I found this podcast five days ago and have binge-listened since! I am hooked and should probably pace myself better so I can let some of the information I’m learning sink in a little more before moving onto the next episode. I find everything Dr. Logan talks about fascinating and helping me better understand my own religious beliefs and practices. What a phenomenal podcast! I would love to know more about the host though. Where are you from? Where do you teach? Have you written any articles, or maybe even books so I can learn more? I love it all!
