What does the Bible actually say—without filters, traditions, or assumptions layered on top? Straight Bible is a no-nonsense deep dive into Scripture, hosted by Matt Hepner, where the text is stripped down to its raw meaning and allowed to speak for itself. Each episode focuses on careful reading, context, and uncovering what’s really happening beneath the surface of familiar passages—ranging from powerful encounters like Moses and the Burning Bush to in-depth teaching series through the Book of Jude and the Sermon on the Mount.  Recorded in real-world settings, including conversations at The Standard Coffee, the show blends theological depth with grounded discussion—bridging ancient text and modern life while challenging surface-level interpretations and inviting listeners to engage Scripture directly, honestly, and with intention. Whether you’re deeply familiar with the Bible or just starting to question what you’ve been taught, Straight Bible is for anyone who wants to move beyond secondhand interpretations and encounter the text directly.

    How to Slay a Wizard: Owen Benjamin on Straight Bible

    Owen Benjamin joins Straight Bible for a wide-ranging conversation about Christianity, spiritual warfare, media manipulation, Biblical reality, free will, predestination, the modern church, money, family, and the unseen forces that shape culture. Using ideas from Owen’s book How to Slay a Wizard, the discussion examines how advertising, slogans, false binaries, identity, fear, debt, institutional pressure, and entertainment can influence the way people think and live. The episode moves from Owen’s personal history with addiction, rehab, Hollywood, and family life into deeper questions about God’s sovereignty and human choice. Kanye West’s idea of a “script” becomes a launching point for discussing predestination and free will, while later sections explore faith as the substance of things hoped for, the authority of Scripture, the Tower of Babel, Revelation, the wheat and the tares, and what it means to live according to Biblical reality rather than the assumptions of the world. Owen and the Straight Bible crew also discuss the Trinity and the Biblical language of the Godhead, Jesus’ example, blessing Israel, Ezra, John 1:9, Romans 1, Acts, tithing, church finances, marriage, student debt, generational family life, and the calling of working men throughout Scripture. King David becomes a major focus as the conversation examines his anointing, Goliath, Bathsheba, Uriah, his failures, and the consequences recorded openly in the Bible. The conversation also enters conspiracy territory, including Jekyll Island, the Federal Reserve, gold and silver, Bitcoin, Lincoln-Kennedy synchronicities, John Wilkes Booth, secret societies, World War I patterns, propaganda, and the danger of becoming more obsessed with hidden evil than with God, family, work, prayer, and personal responsibility. What do you think: are modern Christians too focused on institutions and narratives instead of living out the faith in everyday life?

    Walk in the Light of the Lord | A Spurgeon Sermon Breakdown:Part 1

    In this episode, the hosts examine Charles Spurgeon’s sermon “Walking in the Light of the Lord,” preached from Isaiah 2:5: “O house of Jacob, come ye, and let us walk in the light of the Lord.” The discussion begins by placing a widely shared Spurgeon quote about the Jews back into its original sermon context, then expands into a challenging Bible study on Israel, the church, the Gentiles, Zionism, dispensationalism, prophecy, and Christian political influence.The hosts read Isaiah 2:1–5 and consider whether the passage points to the millennial reign, the future restoration of Israel, and a time when the nations will seek the teaching of the Lord. They discuss the distinction between natural Israel and the spiritual people of God, the grafted olive tree, the rejection of the Messiah, and Spurgeon’s call for Christians to pray for the conversion and ingathering of the Jewish people.A major question runs throughout the episode: What does it actually mean to “bless Israel”? The conversation compares modern political and military support for Israel with the biblical call to seek a people’s true good through repentance, salvation, and faith in Jesus Christ. Passages and concepts include Genesis 12, Numbers 22–24 and Balaam, Numbers 24:9, Galatians 3, Jacob and Esau, covenant blessings and curses, the birthright, and the Messiah as the fulfillment of God’s promise to Abraham.The episode also explores whether politics flows downstream from culture, how churches shape political narratives, Donald Trump’s populist movement, the Epstein files, propaganda, MKUltra, and the tension between political power and the local mission of the church. In the final section, Spurgeon’s sermon turns toward evangelism, the joy of seeing converts come to Christ, the meaning of blessing God, free will, Christian service, house-church fellowship, new converts, spiritual zeal, Luke 5 and the old wine, and the danger of becoming lukewarm inside religious institutions.How should Christians think biblically about Israel without surrendering discernment to either political extreme?

    Paranoid American Reviews A Woman Rides the Beast

    Thomas the Paranoid American returns for a long-form Straight Bible discussion centered on Dave Hunt’s controversial book A Woman Rides the Beast. This episode examines Hunt’s claims about Roman Catholicism, the Vatican, Bible prophecy, and the possibility of a coming one-world religious system—while also challenging the assumptions, evidence, and interpretations behind those claims.The conversation begins with a deeper question: can the Bible itself be corrupted or used as a tool of control? From the King James Bible and denominational authority to commentaries, organized religion, and the difference between biblical submission and institutional control, the group explores how Christians should read Scripture and test religious teaching for themselves.Thomas then breaks down the major themes in A Woman Rides the Beast, including papal infallibility, rival popes, Catholic saints, prayers to Mary, the rosary, transubstantiation, the Eucharist, clerical celibacy, purgatory, indulgences, Opus Dei, corrupt popes, and the Vatican’s political influence. The discussion also examines historical claims involving Mussolini, Adolf Hitler, Nazi ratlines, Galileo, Israel’s rebirth in 1948, David Koresh, Waco, and the New World Order.The episode also tackles faith versus evidence. Can fulfilled Bible prophecy be treated as historical proof? Topics include Isaiah 53:9, Psalm 22:18, Daniel’s kingdoms, Matthew 24, Romans 1:19, the resurrection and empty tomb, the Antichrist, astrotheology, occult symbolism, universalism, and the relationship between grace, faith, and works. Ephesians 2:8, James, Revelation, and John 7 are discussed as the hosts wrestle with doubt, salvation, religious deception, and what it means to seek a genuine relationship with Jesus Christ.Where do you agree or disagree with Dave Hunt’s conclusions? Is the Roman Catholic Church the woman who rides the beast, or does the evidence require a more careful reading? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    Fridays Are For The Lord w/ Ed Mabrie

    What happens to the mind and spirit in the moments between waking and sleep? In this episode of Fridays Are for the Lord, Ed Mabrie of Faith By Reason joins the Nephilim Death Squad crew for a wide-ranging discussion about spiritual warfare, sleep paralysis, nighttime anxiety, brainwave frequencies, prayer, generational blessings, and forgiveness. Ed explains why he believes spiritual attacks often intensify when people are falling asleep, waking up, or experiencing the vulnerable mental state associated with dreams. The conversation explores the conscious and unconscious mind, alpha, beta, theta, and delta states, the “veil” between the physical and spiritual realms, 3 A.M. awakenings, night terrors, and whether tools commonly associated with binaural beats or New Age spirituality can be redirected toward biblical meditation, Scripture, and spiritual preparedness. The discussion then turns to morning routines, social media overload, intrusive thoughts, fear, and anxiety. The hosts examine how Christians can distinguish ordinary stress from a spiritual attack, take every thought captive in Christ, pray repeatedly without falling into vain repetition, and approach God honestly as a Father. They reference the Psalms of David, the Sermon on the Mount, the Pharisees, biblical fasting, authentic prayer, and the danger of performative religion. Later, Ed and the crew debate whether prayer has a transactional or judicial dimension. They discuss Genesis, God’s rest, David and Solomon, Jesus praying for future believers, salvation by grace through faith, heavenly rewards, obedience, praying “in Jesus’ name,” and the difference between salvation and reward. The episode also examines generational blessings through Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Esau, and the twelve tribes of Israel, along with spiritual inheritance, generational curses, and leaving children more than material wealth. The conversation closes with forgiveness and gratitude as offensive spiritual warfare. Forgiveness is presented not as approving evil, but as refusing personal vengeance and turning judgment over to God. What do you believe happens spiritually during sleep? Can biblical prayer, gratitude, and forgiveness change the way Christians confront spiritual attacks? Share your perspective in the comments.

    L.A. Marzulli on Straight Bible

    L.A. Marzulli joins Straight Bible for an in-depth conversation about the Nephilim, fallen angels, UFO disclosure, Roswell, Fatima, Bible prophecy, and what he believes may be the coming great deception. Drawing from decades of research, 34 films, and 16 books, Marzulli explains how subjects once rejected by much of the church have entered mainstream discussions about aliens, non-human intelligence, ancient civilizations, and government UFO programs. The episode begins with the Newark Earthworks in Ohio, the massive octagon mound, the 18.5-year lunar standstill, and the Book of Enoch’s account of forbidden knowledge. Marzulli then presents his research into elongated skulls from Peru and Bolivia, DNA testing, unusual cranial features, and the possibility of a connection to the post-Flood Nephilim. The discussion examines Genesis 3:15, the “seed” of the serpent, the Sethite theory, the days of Noah, alien implants, the mark of the beast, and whether modern abduction accounts could involve hybridization. Marzulli also recounts his investigation of the Roswell crash site, unusual metal recovered from the debris field, Jesse Marcel, Walter Haut, Hangar 84, and the alleged government cover-up. From there, the conversation turns to the 1917 Fatima apparitions, archival photographs, eyewitness testimony, the Vatican, Mary as the “Queen of Heaven,” the divine feminine, goddess worship, serpent traditions, and the claim that Fatima may have been a UFO-related deception rather than a biblical appearance. The final portion connects UFO disclosure with end-times prophecy. Topics include a possible nuclear crisis, mile-wide craft appearing over major cities, channeled New Age teachings, the rapture, the ten virgins, 2 Thessalonians 2, 1 Timothy 4:1, Amos 9:14–15, Israel’s restoration in 1948, Ezekiel 38–39, Revelation 19, and the literal millennial reign of Christ. Marzulli closes by sharing his extraordinary three-second experience on a flying white horse and his interpretation of Christ’s returning heavenly army. What do you believe the UFO phenomenon represents: extraterrestrial visitors, spiritual deception, or something else? Share your thoughts in the comments.

    Sermon on the Mount: Part 21 | Treasures in Heaven

    In Sermon on the Mount Part 21, this in-depth Bible study examines Matthew 6:19-24 and Jesus’ command to stop laying up treasures on earth and begin storing up treasures in heaven. The central question is simple but searching: Where is your treasure, and what does it reveal about your heart? This episode explores the difference between temporary success and eternal wealth, why no one can serve both God and mammon, and how Christians can redirect the same discipline, ambition, and work ethic once spent on earthly gain toward the Kingdom of God. A personal testimony of losing savings, property, and years of labor shows how quickly material security can disappear—and why eternal rewards must become the believer’s true investment. The discussion connects Matthew 6 with Colossians 3:1-2, 2 Peter 3:1-14, 1 Peter 1:22-25, Revelation 21:1-7, Luke 12, Exodus 19, 1 Peter 2, Hebrews 11, Colossians 1, 2 Corinthians 4, and Matthew 19. The study covers the rich fool, the rich young ruler, the return of Christ, the new heaven and new earth, the eternal Word of God, and the calling to live as strangers and pilgrims in this world. You will also hear a challenging discussion about biblical stewardship, covetousness, retirement culture, religious institutions, the mustard seed parable, and the difference between building political systems and building the living Church through transformed people. Abraham, Moses, Noah, Enoch, Abel, Peter, and Paul are examined as examples of faith directed toward an unseen and eternal Kingdom. What does it practically mean to be “rich toward God”? How can believers store God’s Word in their hearts, preach Christ, serve others, and invest their lives in what cannot be stolen, corrupted, or destroyed? Share your thoughts in the comments: What does storing up treasure in heaven look like in your daily life?

    Denominations vs Scripture | Straight Bible Q&A

    In this special Straight Bible Q&A episode, we answer a wide range of Bible questions submitted by viewers while exploring Scripture in its proper context. Rather than relying on denominational traditions or theological systems, this discussion encourages believers to search the Word of God for themselves and evaluate every doctrine through the lens of Scripture. Throughout this conversation, we discuss questions surrounding salvation, grace, works, the Law, the Holy Spirit, Israel, baptism, Sabbath, marriage and divorce, Genesis, Acts, and many other biblical topics. We also examine how Christians should approach difficult theological debates without allowing personalities, traditions, or intellectual arguments to replace a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. This episode emphasizes careful Bible study, biblical context, and allowing Scripture to interpret Scripture. Whether you're a new believer with questions or someone who has studied the Bible for years, you'll find thoughtful discussion designed to encourage deeper study and stronger faith. If you've ever wondered: How should Christians understand the Law and grace? What role does baptism play? What does the Bible teach about salvation? How should we approach denominational differences? What does Scripture actually say about difficult passages? ...this Q&A is for you. We hope this discussion challenges you to open your Bible, seek truth with humility, and grow in your relationship with Christ. We'd love to hear your thoughts. Which question or answer stood out to you the most? Leave your perspective in the comments and join the conversation.
