This One Is My Favorite | The Thread Of Divine Reordering

Good morning, friends! We are almost done with our Threads Through Scripture series, and I have loved this one! Today’s thread, Divine Reordering, was inspired by a Bible Project video titled What Jesus Meant by “The Last Will Be First.” At my church Bible study, we have been reading through the letters of Paul, and I’ve been really pondering the idea of the New Humanity and the New Kingdom that Paul speaks about throughout these letters. As believers, our true residence and allegiance are...

A Day Late - But Worth the Wait! | Thread Of Biblical Geography

Hi Friends! Can you read a map? If you said yes, I’m impressed! The closest I’ve ever gotten to “reading a map” was good ol’ MapQuest! Back in the early 2000s, 16-year-old me would drive all over with nothing but a printed sheet of directions. No GPS. No backup plan. Just me hoping I didn’t miss a turn! By college, I was using those same printed directions to drive from Michigan to Virginia. And somehow, I made it! (To God be the glory!) Today, we have GPS at our fingertips. So why bother...

The Thread Of Numerology

Happy Tuesday, Friends! Well, buckle your seatbelts and prepare for a potentially controversial episode as we follow the Thread of Numerology! 👀 I’m a little nervous to put this idea “out there.” This is a concept that I have been wrestling with for the past two years, and I’m still working through some of the questions surrounding it. But isn’t that what Inquisitive Disciples is all about? Going beyond the easy answers, asking the hard questions, and being willing to dig a little deeper—even...

Just A Little Something To Read Today

Hey Friends! I don’t have a video for you today, but I really hope you’ll stick around and keep reading because this thread is one of my favorites so far! The past two weeks have been filled with things beyond my control. I’m very sad to share that our little buddy Macaroni passed away two Sundays ago, and then we lost our little Alfie last Tuesday. Needless to say, it’s been a sad and quiet couple of weeks around here, and I gave myself permission to rest. So I didn't pull everything...

From the Garden to the River: The Story of Living Water

Hey Friends! Have you ever noticed the thematic elements of water throughout Scripture? Whether as springs, wells, chaotic waters, or rivers, water is a thread that runs from Genesis to Revelation. Today, let's roll up our sleeves and see how water is woven into the larger unfolding story of the Bible. Digging Deeper | The Ancient Biblical Cosmos Resources To me, one of the most fascinating aspects of the water theme is how it connects to the ancient cosmos. I believe understanding this is...

Let's Talk Carbs In The Bible. ... Yes!

Hey Friends! Today starts the Threads Through Scripture series! I was a little inspired by the weather change (FINALLYYY!) because fall brings soups and sourdough. So, as we inch closer to the leaves changing and the fire crackling, let’s step into ancient Israelite culture and follow the theme of bread woven throughout Scripture. This basic, everyday staple in their culture had much greater spiritual significance than we might realize. Rolling Up Your Sleeves -------- Enjoyed today’s episode...

Announcing The FIRST Inquisitive Disciples Series!

09/23/2026 Well, friends—here we are! I feel exhilarated, with a little hesitation, as I start exploring the idea of Inquisitive Disciples. It’s a tad intimidating to put your honest thoughts, questions, editing, and writing skills out onto the vast internet. But this idea has been stirring in me for some time, and I feel refreshed as I finally respond to that quiet tug. I am so appreciative to have YOU join me as one of the original subscribers along the way! Thank you for being here! New...
