Our Mission is Simple...
That one heart would come to know or grow in Christ.
Two guys that love the bible, having fun and going off script invite you into their bible study they have been doing together for over 10 years! Instead of reading a whole chapter at a time, they bite off a small piece of scripture that they can dive into for around 30 minutes or less. Using their innate curiosity and the help of their Life Application bible footnotes, their bible study is refreshing and fun! They are not bible scholars by any means but just two regular, everyday guys who turned their bible study from an obligation or Christian duty into a fun time that they look forward to and actually grow closer to God during! Their hope is that it will provide you with a refreshing way to get into God’s word, help you see how using the Life Application bible can help you gain further insight into the scriptures and maybe prompt you to find a friend or two that you can do a similar style of bible study on your own! Our tempo in each episode is to: * Open with prayer * Read a small bite of scripture * See if there are any verses that pop out to us or we have any inspired insight on. * Read the Life Application footnotes for the scripture that was read and discuss what was shared and/or any ”ah ha” moments! * Close in prayer. Give us a listen and we guarantee you will have some fun with us (or at least be able to poke some fun at us)! Be great and enjoy the gift of today! :) Proverbs 27:17 Shout out to Dmitrii Kolesnikov providing rights to the intro/exit music at https://pixabay.com/users/the_mountain-3616498/

In Episode 46, "Those Crazy Bible Study Guys" look at a powerful lesson about how when troubles that come upon us out of nowhere we tend to "yell demands" (cry out to God why) versus asking what is this about? Our times of trouble, while never wanted, are where we tend to grow the greatest. And being in the middle of the sea in a fishing boat with 13 people and 20 foot waves in the middle of a raging storm is the example that sets the stage for this episode's discussion on leaning on Jesus versus leaning into fear in times of trouble!
Join "Those Crazy Bible Study Guys" as they navigate through the scripture, reflect on life's storms, and find comfort in knowing that Jesus is always in control no matter what size of the storm.

In Episode 45, "Those Crazy Bible Study Guys" see how everything in our life has an opportunity cost...even following Jesus! Whether it be time, money or the experience of God's blessings in our walk with Him, when we do something, there is always an opportunity cost of something else we won't have, can't do or won't experience. When it comes to Christ, that opportunity cost always brings a higher return than we expect or anticipate!
They continue discussions on how Christ wants us all in or all out...hot or cold...yes or no. And how our excitement in our faith is like that of a fire that quickly grows from a spark to large flames but can quickly dwindle unless more wood (connectivity with God) occurs...daily! Similar to our initial excitement and enthusiasm when we start working out, losing weight or getting out of debt!
Join "Those Crazy Bible Study Guys" as they, once again, have multiple mic drops in this study of Jesus' teachings about the cost of following Him.

Not just healing but bearing that sickness onto Himself as a reminder to us of that day where sin and sickness will be no more! From discussions on awesome pot roast Sunday dinners at the in-laws house to reminders of how Jesus not only provides healing for our souls but also can reach us through healing from spiritual and physical sickness, you won't want to miss this episode of Those Crazy Bible Study Guys.

Join "Those Crazy Bible Study Guys" in episode 43 as they focus on the centurion's humble approach to Jesus after hearing the Sermon on the Mount, showcasing an exemplary level of faith that even amazed Jesus himself. (Centurions were Roman soldiers who commanded 100 men during Jesus' time. They were known for being professional, brutal, and swift, but also for their strength of mind, deliberation, and being rigid in their ways.)
They go off on a slight tangent in relation to envisioning the feast in heaven with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob like the final scene in the movie "The Grinch" where the whole town sits at a table for a feast with roast beast! :)
They quickly get back on track as they discuss the significance of faith, how our coming to faith varies from person to person, and the importance of recognizing God's work in our lives, which typically defies our expectations! Join "Those Crazy Bible Study Guys" on this insightful conversation on the nuances of faith and the beautiful, unique stories that lead us to Christ.

In Episode 41, Those Crazy Bible Study Guys give a shout out to their international listeners before diving into the continued discussion on a strong foundation vs building a house of cards! They walk down the path to see how our walk is more important than our talk. This is the significance of putting Jesus' words into practice and how it can profoundly impact your life's direction - lighting your next step!
The study gets real as, with coaching, while you may want something more than the person you are coaching the only way something becomes fully effective in our lives is when we do it for ourselves. Whether it be exercise, our finances or, most importantly, our decision to follow Christ, God knows your heart and if you are just doing it for someone else or for yourself, which is when the true changes come!
Join Those Crazy Bible Study Guys for an inspiring conversation that will encourage you to reflect on your life's purpose and motivate you to build a strong foundation in your faith...one step at a time!

We use to study the bible out of obligation or "Christian duty" but then we found out that getting together with a friend, going with the flow on how much scripture you read, getting insights from those much smarter about scripture (from a Life Application bible) and just having some curiosity and open, honest conversation was the formula of turning our "duty" into something we not only enjoyed but looked forward to doing! Listen in on one of our studies together and see if this style of studying the bible inspires you to have fun studying the scriptures and helps you grow closer to God! :)
