    1534. Christians Used to Be Funnier? Humor, Satire, and the Church | Dr. Terry Lindvall (Part 2)

    This is Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Terry Lindvall. If you haven't seen Part 1 yet, start there first: https://youtu.be/jBuZ6d7O2es What happened to Christian humor? For centuries, Christians laughed, joked, mocked hypocrisy, and used satire to expose pride, corruption, and foolishness. But somewhere along the way, many believers became afraid to laugh. In Part 2 of this conversation, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb and Dr. Terry Lindvall explore the forgotten history of Christian humor—from medieval monks and the Feast of Fools to Martin Luther, G.K. Chesterton, and the long tradition of holy mockery. Why did Christians become so serious? Can satire be used faithfully? What's the difference between humor that heals and humor that harms? This conversation is insightful, hilarious, and surprisingly relevant for the modern church. 📚 Dr. Terry Lindvall's book: God Mocks: A History of Religious Satire from the Hebrew Prophets to Stephen Colbert: https://a.co/d/02BTQlob ▶️ Missed Part 1?

    1533. Why God Created Temples, Priests, and Sacrifices: The Story of God's Presence | Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb

    Many Christians assume the Old Testament is primarily about rules, restrictions, sacrifices, and barriers between God and humanity. But what if those things existed for the exact opposite reason? In this episode, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb explores one of the Bible's most important themes: God's relentless desire to dwell with His people. From Eden to the Tabernacle, from the Temple to Jesus, Scripture tells the story of a God who continually moves toward humanity—even after humanity moves away from Him. Why did God's presence become dangerous after Genesis 3? What were priests, sacrifices, and purity laws actually accomplishing? And how does Jesus restore what was lost in Eden? Join us as we trace the story of God's presence across Scripture and discover why the Old Testament may not be what you think it is. #bible #podcast #jesus #faith #christ #christianeducation #christian #oldtestament #biblestudy #devotional #scholar #god Study deeper with GlossaHouse:🌐 https://glossahouse.com📚 Classes (GlossaHouse U):https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 Digital Libraries:https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library🎧 Listen to ProveText:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiRApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462📲 Follow GlossaHouse:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouseFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse

    1531. God Is Funny? Humor, Satire, and the Bible | Conversation with Dr. Terry Lindvall (Part 1)

    Most Christians read the Bible far too seriously. But what if Scripture contains far more humor, irony, satire, and laughter than we've been taught to see? In this conversation, Dr. T. Michael W. Halcomb sits down with humor scholar Dr. Terry Lindvall to explore the hidden comedy of the Bible—from Sarah's laughter and Noah's drunkenness to Jewish humor, biblical irony, and the surprising ways God uses humor throughout Scripture. Why do we miss so much of the Bible's humor? Did God intend for His people to laugh? And what happens when we rediscover the joy, playfulness, and humanity woven into the biblical story? This is Part 1 of a fascinating conversation on humor, satire, and the Bible. 📚 Dr. Terry Lindvall's book: God Mocks: A History of Religious Satire from the Hebrew Prophets to Stephen Colbert: https://a.co/d/02BTQlob 🔔 Subscribe for Part 2, where we explore Christian satire, church history, Luther, holy mockery, and why Christians used to be a lot funnier. #jesus #podcast #humor #funny #comedy #bible #christ #booktok #history #faith #interview #scholar #biblestudy #joy #jokes Study deeper with GlossaHouse:🌐 https://glossahouse.com📚 Classes (GlossaHouse U):https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 Digital Libraries:https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library🎧 Listen to ProveText:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiRApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462📲 Follow GlossaHouse:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouseFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse

    1529. Do Dogs Go to Heaven? Reflections on Death, Grief, and the Afterlife | Dr. Fredrick J. Long

    Today’s episode is a deeply personal one. Fred reflects on the passing of his beloved dog, Callie, after fifteen years together. As he processes grief, he explores some of Christianity’s biggest questions: What happens when we die? Do believers immediately go to be with the Lord? Is "soul sleep" biblical? And what hope, if any, might there be for the animals we love? Drawing from passages like 1 Thessalonians 4, 2 Corinthians 5, Philippians 1, Romans 8, and Ephesians 2, Fred shares his thoughts on life after death, resurrection, and the hope Christians have in Christ. This is not a technical lecture—it’s a personal reflection on loss, faith, and the promise of God's future. #jesus #podcast #bible #faith #christ #biblestudy #theology #dog #dogs #grief #death #scholar #vlog #vlogging #christianlife #christianeducation #christian #christianity #jesuschrist #heaven Study deeper with GlossaHouse:🌐 https://glossahouse.com📚 Classes (GlossaHouse U):https://glossahouse.com/pages/classes📖 Digital Libraries:https://glossahouse.com/collections/glossahouse-digital-library🎧 Listen to ProveText:Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7xXn8x6IgdcUDIhKouDEiRApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/provetext/id1542221462📲 Follow GlossaHouse:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/glossahouse/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@glossahouseFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/GlossaHouse
