    The First Classroom in Hell Is a Bible Study Without Context | Live at The Send

    Satan quoted Psalm 91 to the Son of God. His citations were accurate. His chapter and verse were right, yet he omitted the very next line, the one that promised his own demise. The first classroom in hell is a Bible study without context. This episode is a live teaching from The Send where Pastor Darren and Angela unpack Matthew 4, counter-formation, and what it looks like to be formed by Jesus in a world that is actively forming you into something else. In this episode: Matthew 4 and the temptation of Jesus where Satan uses scripture to combat faithfulness, grab power, and omit what does not serve himGen Z Bible reading hit 49% in one year and belief in the Bible's accuracy is shrinking at the same timeEngagement is outpacing conviction and what the Barna data actually reveals about the church right nowThe first classroom in hell is a Bible study without context and it is happening on Instagram every dayYou can quote scripture and still be Satan and the difference between quoting the word and submitting to itAngela's testimony of being saved at 25, delivered from alcoholism and eating disorders, and what the Word did in her lifeCultural Christianity has changed three things including your relationship with scripture, the church, and the lordship of Jesus SPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.

    Sexual Integrity, Purity in Dating, and What the Bible Actually Says

    Masculinity makes it safe for femininity to flourish. And men have to lead the way in purity before they ever lead in a relationship. This episode covers the complementarian design of masculine and feminine working together, sexual integrity in dating, Proverbs 5 and 7, Ephesians 4, and what it actually looks like for a man to set the tone in communication, in conflict, and in purity. In this episode: Angela's story: Albanian culture, a powerful mother, and how Jesus made her more feminine than anything elseWhy masculinity and femininity need each other; and what goes wrong when one is absentMen leading through self-sacrifice, communication, conflict, and emotional toneProverbs 5 and 7 on sexual integrity; the eyes, the heart, and the trapNot even a hint; Ephesians 4 and the standard that applies to everyonePornography is as addictive as cocaine; don't quit, and here is what helpsFinding a higher joy in Jesus Christ is the only thing that actually replaces lust SPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.

    The Father Wound, Passive Men & the Biblical Standard Nobody Is Talking About

    What does it actually mean to be a man of God — and why is it so hard to find in the church, in dating, and in everyday life? This episode covers the full biblical picture of masculinity: from the wounds that produce passive men, to David's six-attribute blueprint, to the complementarian beauty of the masculine and feminine working together. In this episode: • What intentional pursuit actually looks like — and why mixed signals leave women stuck and confused • The Simba Complex: running from your calling, living in hakuna matata, and what it takes to step into your true identity • Toxic therapy culture vs. radical accountability — the difference between a vocabulary for your wounds and actually healing from them • Why passivity in men almost always traces back to a boy who was never initiated into manhood • Responsibility as masculinity — what Genesis 2 reveals about the garden and why nothing flourished until man showed up to tend it • Knowing God as the fuel of manhood — Moses, the burning bush, and "show me your glory" • Beauty and the Beast as the most accurate picture of the masculine and feminine working together that culture never meant to give us SPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.

    Stop Waiting for Permission to Be Strong — Derek Mack on Biblical Masculinity

    The version of Jesus most people carry in their minds — gentle, passive, blonde-haired, blue-eyed — is not the Jesus of Scripture. The real Jesus turned over tables, carried heavy stone, wept publicly, welcomed the outcast, and went to the cross without flinching. This episode is a conversation with Derek Mack about what genuine biblical masculinity actually looks like when Jesus is the model instead of culture. In this episode: • Why our domesticated version of Jesus has produced a domesticated version of men • The Greek word androzomai — play the man — and why Polycarp heard it from heaven before he burned • Andrew Tate and why half-truths are more dangerous than outright lies • The Peter Pan generation — living in Neverland, escaping into video games, avoiding the call to grow up • Why the fatherless crisis is at the center of everything happening with men right now • 1 Corinthians 16:13 and the call to be on guard, stand firm, be courageous, be strong, and do everything in love • Stop waiting for permission to be strong SPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.

    Preston Morrison on Why God's Correction Is a Sign of His Delight Not His Anger

    A good father does not correct a child he has given up on. He corrects the one he is still invested in — the one he delights in. This episode is a conversation with Preston Morrison about what God's correction actually is, why it is one of the clearest signs of His love, and how to respond when you feel that prompting that something is off. In this episode: Proverbs 3 — the Lord disciplines those He loves, as a father the son He delights inWhy correction from God sounds nothing like condemnation from the enemyWhat God's wrath in Romans 1 actually is — and why most people misread itWhat it feels like when the Holy Spirit corrects you — even in the smallest momentsWhy the faster you are grieved by what grieves God the closer you are to HimDon't run from correction — run toward it like the buffalo in the stormRepentance — teshuvah, metanoia, and what Jesus meant in Mark 1 SPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.

    Preston Morrison on Tearing Down Idols and Making Room for God

    Jesus did not die for followers. He did not die for servants. He died to restore our friendship with God — and we have to come back to the table. This episode is a conversation with Preston Morrison about what it looks like to re-dig the old wells, tear down what is competing with God, and return to the simple things that have always carried the presence of God. In this episode: Preston's fostering and adoption story — why God told him this was not for Maxon, it was for himThe pleasure of the Lord — what it is, what produces it, and why it becomes an addictionIdols defined — anything that occupies the part of your heart God alone was meant to occupyWhy addressing idols is romantic not religious — the marriage illustration that reframes everythingJohn 15 and friendship with God — why this has to be at the center of everythingWhat the church needs to recover right now — worship, the Word, prayer, intercession, and patienceMemorial stones — Joshua 4 and why we need to remember what God has done before we ask for what is nextSPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.

    Pastor Michael Koulianos on Union With Christ and Why It Is Not About You

    Spiritual formation is an intentional process of being transformed into Christ-likeness — for the sake of others. That last phrase is what the church has quietly dropped. This episode is a rich, theologically deep conversation with Pastor Michael Koulianos about what formation was always meant to be, why the self has become the center of so much Christian practice, and how the cross reorders everything. In this episode: Why the current obsession with personality, calling, and passion is a sign of expressive individualism making its way into the churchFind a church and stay there — Eugene Peterson's one line that reframes everything about how we approach communityThe vine and the branches — why severing anything God is doing from the Lord Himself turns it into an idolPre-fall Adam was not self-aware — he was enamored with God, and that is what formation is recoveringWhy Jesus does not give life — He gives Himself, and in giving Himself He gives lifeAngela's honest testimony of being platformed before she was rooted and what kept her tethered to JesusThe Christian life includes you but it is not about you SPONSORS & SUPPORT This podcast is a nonprofit.
