497-Easter for All…Especially Believers

 “Is Easter only for believers? Is the atonement limited to just a few, or is it as Paul says: “the free gift of God.” If the wages of sin apply to all, then so must the free gift.”

In today’s podcast and post we conclude our Easter series by highlighting a few of the implications that our recent study has brought to the surface. We’ll compare the bible once again to evangelical doctrine, and let you decide which to trust.

Join me now as we unlock Easter from its binary framework and how that establishes a gospel and evangelism that is more like the early church than it is today.

496- Freeing Judgment Day from Church History

Is “the Day of Judgment” essentially a threat for people to convert to the Christian religion…or else?

In today’s podcast and post, I’ll reveal an alternative orthodoxy that has been hiding in plain sight for two-thousand years. Imagine that, a wine skin capable of holding such precious wine has been right here, but has been obscured by religion.

Join me now as I share with you a framework that opens the bible, addresses the biggest questions of life, and reveals how all sad things become untrue as everything becomes new.

492- Jesus Curses Religion

Hello everyone, I’m Keven Winder and thanks for tuning into another Podcast of Beyond Everything Radio and as always, I have a question for you. “Is Jesus on the side of religion? Or only one religion? Is the Christian religion, replete with 45,000 denominations, the institution Jesus was trying to inaugurate? 

In today’s podcast and post we take on Jesus’ scathing rebuke of religious fundamentalism. Despite the clarity and force of His message, the religious industrial complex clearly rejects it.

Join me now as we wade into a part of the Easter story that religion hates, and discover a counter intuitive freedom that is still being obscured by tradition.

488- 2 of 3 Easter Parables to the Religious

“Why does Jesus tell religion that the Kingdom of God is being taken from them and given to the heathens? Specifically, why does he say this in the midst of the Easter story?”

In today’s podcast and post we visit the second of three parables Jesus gives to religion prior to his crucifixion. These texts are often omitted from Easter, but I will build a case for why they need to be included.

Join me now as Jesus offers a story that reveals just how wrong religion is regarding the Kingdom of God

485-Jesus and the Religious Industrial Complex

“Why do you suppose that the story of Jesus throwing out the moneychangers in the temple has virtually no impact on pastors and running the church like a business?”

In today’s podcast and post, we continue following Christ into one of his most subversive acts toward religion. I’ll provide the historical context and compare it to the modern-day Sunday Big Show.

Join me now as we look closely at Jesus’ angry rebuke upon religion, and ask ourselves why the modern church continues to ignore his message.

480-Fix Your Faith: Politically Over-Identified

“Do you think that the bible aligns more with conservative politics or liberal politics? If you feel the answer is very clear, then guess what?…You’ve taken the mark of the Beast.”

In today’s podcast and post we continue our series entitled “Fix Your Faith” with an examination of the authority of politics and the State. Influencers and commentors love to use the Bible for their political end, but don’t be so easily convinced.

Join me now as I show you the persona behind politics and how to you can become free from your slavery to it.

478-Fix Your Faith 5: Friends and Vocation

“Have you ever asked: “Is this all there is?” Have you ever felt like life is an exhausting treadmill from which you cannot get off, or one on which you fear getting on?

In today’s podcast and post, we explore the institutional authorities of our friends and vocations. I’ll reveal why we can’t just “Pick the right job” and everything will work out. 

Join me now as I explain why so many people are imprisoned by friends and vocation, and how we can subvert this authority with a new name, and begin healing our lives.

477-Fix Your Faith 4: Slipping Through Family

“Is it true when people say: “Family is the most important thing.” Should our focus really be on our family?”

In today’s podcast and post we explore the authority of our family of origin. We’ll unpack how some families don’t really know their members and how they can be an impediment to freedom.

Join me now as we discover that the path to personal change, lasting freedom, and having a close, integrated family, is first to subvert authority of our family.

468-Emotional Extraction: True Advent Feels Wrong

“If the Biblical Advent goes beyond the nativity story to include John the Baptist “preparing the way,” and that “way” was not through religion, then why do you think people today are so emotionally threatened by John’s invitation to leave the religious industrial complex?

In today’s podcast and post, John the Baptist swings his axe and calls us into God’s kingdom which resides outside of religion in the desert.

Join me now as we deconstruct our emotional dissonance to John’s Gospel, which sounds so wrong when we first hear it.

465-The Architecture of Sin and Renewal

“Is there an area of personal change that you have found extremely difficult? You’re not alone.

In today’s podcast and post, I will add another layer of instruction to our last post on embodiment, with an examination of how both sin and renewal work within us.

Join me now as I prove that all problems are first truth problems and how that cascades into personal sin and evil in the world. Learn how our architecture is not broken, but designed in wisdom to allow the entire cosmos to be healed, starting with ourselves.
