From Scratch to Scripture

Mike Daniels

Understanding Christianity doesn’t happen all at once. Sometimes you have to start from scratch. Mike, Peter, and Nick take turns leading conversations that move from foundational questions to deeper biblical study. Each host brings a different level of experience, which means every discussion meets somewhere between learning, challenging, and refining what we think we know. This isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about working through Scripture honestly, asking better questions, and building a clearer understanding of faith over time. If you’re starting fresh, starting over, or just looking to go deeper, you’re in the right place.
