    Naaman's Boxes

    Episode 14: Naaman's Boxes | When Naaman is healed of leprosy, he doesn’t just thank the prophet—he asks for two mule-loads of dirt. Why? In this episode, we explore one of the strangest post-miracle moments in Scripture and discover what sacred soil, Dracula’s boxes, and God’s grace in gray areas all have in common. Naaman’s story invites us to consider how faith survives in foreign lands—and what it means to carry holiness with us into a complicated world.

    Why Didn't Joseph Write Home?

    Episode 13: Why Didn't Joseph Write Home? | Most people remember Joseph as the dreamer-turned-ruler, but one question has haunted rabbis for centuries: why didn’t he ever send word to his grieving father? This episode of BibleCurio dives into one of the strangest silences in the Bible—and reveals a hidden thread of misunderstanding, strategy, and heartbreak. What we discover reshapes our picture of Joseph and offers a surprising mirror for our own fractured relationships. As always, we follow the trail of curiosity, because God is in the details.

    Show & Tell

    Episode 12: Show & Tell | What if the Bible doesn’t just tell truth but shows it through its very structure? In this episode of BibleCurio, we explore Structural Allegory—how Scripture’s design reinforces its message, from the unraveling form of Lamentations to the echoes of Genesis in John. We also look at how great literature, like Frankenstein and Silence, uses the same technique. If the universe is fine-tuned, could the Bible be just as intentionally crafted?

    Episode 10: Did Paul Do Midrash? | Did Paul read the Old Testament the way we do? Or was he engaging in something deeper—an ancient Jewish practice called Midrash?

    Where Are You?

    Episode 9: Where Are You? | The first question God asks in the Bible is "Where are you?" (Genesis 3:9)—but why does an all-knowing God need to ask? This episode explores how that question reveals God’s relentless pursuit of humanity and why it shapes everything we believe about Him. If we start with the wrong view of God, we risk misunderstanding faith, ministry, and even Scripture itself.

    Sticks & Stones

    Episode 8: Sticks & Stones | "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." But is that really true? In this episode of BibleCurio, we explore the story of Abimelech in Judges 9—a man brought down by both stones and words—and uncover a mysterious connection to 2 Samuel 11-12. Why does Joab invoke Abimelech’s downfall when speaking to David? And what do the rare Old Testament parables in these chapters reveal about power, legacy, and the stark contrast between Abimelech and David?
