In this episode of The Bible Show, Sam and Will dive into Matthew chapter 7 and tackle one of the most misquoted verses in the Bible: "Do Not Judge." They explain what Jesus actually meant, why Christians are still called to make wise moral judgments, and how failing to judge evil actually harms innocent people. You'll learn the Greek word "krino," which literally means "to separate," and how that changes everything about how we read this passage. The episode also covers the log and the speck (Matthew 7:3-5), what "pearls before swine" really means, and when wisdom says to hold back rather than share. Whether you're new to faith or rethinking what you've been taught about judgment, this episode will challenge you to examine your own heart first. Like, comment, and subscribe for more.

In this episode of the Bible Show, Sam and Will introduce the book of Leviticus and explain why it is one of the most overlooked yet deeply rewarding books of the Bible. They explore how Leviticus sits at the center of the Torah and reveals God's invitation for sinful people to draw near to Him through worship. The episode covers fun facts about Leviticus, including why it contains more direct speech from God than any other book of the Bible, and how the Day of Atonement in Leviticus 16 is the heart of the entire book. You will learn how the tabernacle represents a journey from death to life and how Jesus fulfills every sacrifice, law, and ritual described in Leviticus. Whether you have struggled to read Leviticus or never tried, this episode will show you why understanding it makes the gospel more beautiful and your faith more grounded. If you are looking for peace, rest, and deeper worship, the answer found in Leviticus is to draw near to God through Christ. Like, comment, and subscribe for more.

In this episode of The Bible Show, Sam and Will walk through Matthew 6:25-34 where Jesus teaches his followers not to be anxious about food, clothing, or tomorrow. This passage connects directly to Jesus' teaching about money and serving two masters, revealing that anxiety often comes from a divided heart. The Greek word for anxiety, merimnao, literally means to be pulled in different directions, and Jesus uses the birds of the air and lilies of the field to show how much more God cares for his children. They explore why gratitude and anxiety cannot coexist in the brain, and how spiritual hoarding keeps us from the freedom God offers. If you struggle with worry, this episode offers both deep biblical teaching and practical strategies for trusting God with your tomorrow. Like, comment, and subscribe for more.

In this final episode on Exodus, Sam and Will explore Exodus 35–40 and how the tabernacle construction reveals God's heart for willing worship over forced obedience. After the golden calf discipline, God invites Israel to give from a generous heart rather than demanding their resources, and the people respond with such overwhelming generosity that Moses has to tell them to stop. The episode highlights Bezalel as the first Spirit-filled person in Scripture, showing that every vocation is a divine calling. Sam and Will then trace the tabernacle pattern through the New Testament, revealing how Jesus' cry of "It is finished" and the giving of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost made believers into living temples sent to the ends of the earth. They unpack the Samaritan woman encounter and Old Testament prophecies about living water flowing from the temple to bring life to dead places. Whether you are new to the Bible or deepening your understanding, this episode will help you see your life as a sacred mission carrying God's presence into the world.
