This week on Behind the Pulpit, Pastor Bob hosts a special “lightning round” edition with guest co-host Noah Graves, who steps in for Pastor Dave as he takes a week off. The trio keeps things fast-paced and lively, covering everything from government shutdown updates and Supreme Court rulings to Mars missions and a few hilarious travel memories. The episode also features rapid-fire book recommendations, audience questions, and a surprise set of Theology Sprint challenges that test Pastor Bob’s biblical reflexes.
In their audience Q&A segment, Bob, Tim, and Noah tackle two deep theological questions submitted by listeners — one exploring whether the angel of the Lord in Judges 13 could be a preincarnate appearance of Christ, and another examining the line on baptism from the Nicene Creed. The discussion dives into the difference between water and Spirit baptism and what it truly means to confess “one baptism for the forgiveness of sins.”
Finally, in the sermon recap, Pastor Bob reflects on Pastor Dave’s message from Isaiah 41–46, unpacking themes of idolatry, divine sovereignty, and what it means for God to be our “everything.” He reminds listeners that while idols promise security, only the living God knows us by name and walks with us through the fire and the flood. It’s a fast, fun, and thought-provoking episode that blends humor with deep truth — the perfect balance of lightning and light.
