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 29, Those Crazy Bible Study Guys kinda "hey, squirrel" but it ends up being in good ways as they hit on multiple lessons from these 5 verses! Loving and forgiving enemies is not our human nature and is a God-level of love - just as he forgave each of us though we didn't deserve it! People see God's reflection in you when you love your enemies and God knows this is one of the most powerful ways we can reach others for Christ! The episode then wraps up with the insight that "everyone we meet is an opportunity to learn something new" as Those Crazy Bible Study Guys "hey, squirrel" moments continue to uphold the "crazy" in their name!

In episode 28, Those Crazy Bible Study Guys get into how we are designed to fight or flight which make retaliation a natural response! They further learn that "an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth" was actually a term used in the courts of Jesus' day for guidance as to how to assess punishment on a convicted criminal. While joking about a fun level of retaliation at home trying to unexpectedly scare our spouses, the Holy Spirit inspires a mic drop on this episode: we learn why we need to come to God in prayer in situations where we want to retaliate because it is a whole other level of love we need, a supernatural love, that Jesus showed that day on the cross as he asked for God's forgiveness on those who falsely accused Him and brutally brought Him to a wrongful death.

In episode 27, we will give you an iron-clad handshake that it's more than the wedding alter that Jesus wants our vows to be commitments others can rely on! Those Crazy Bible Study Guys really dive into Jesus' desire for us to say Yes or No as those are strong commitments either way. They then dive into learning in their own lives how sometimes it's difficult to say no when you are asked to do something because you don't want to let someone down or hurt their feelings. However, saying that difficult "no" is not only better than saying yes now (only to break your promise later), it frees you from a vow you know you can't keep as well as allows the person asking to find someone who can provide a committed "yes!"

In Episode 26, Jesus continues to throw those knockout punches as Those Crazy Bible Study Guys continue the study of the Sermon on the Mount! The continued theme of the devil's "If's" that create that spark of doubt and how Jesus is the one that can douse it with a firehose before that doubt becomes action! Join Those Crazy Bible Study Guys as that spark of lust discussed in Episode 25 can lead to today's topic of infidelity and divorce. That opens up the discussion that we shouldn't focus on the perception that the grass is greener on the other side but that if we tend to and water our own grass, it will actually be greener!

Episode 25 gets real as Those Crazy Bible Study guys learn that lust has been a constant battle over time for the human race! They actually get a little serious as they share personal stories of how important it is for fathers to help ensure their children understand the biblical view of attraction due to how it can become a long term struggle. Join those Crazy Bible Study Guys as they see how much Jesus knows lust can impact our life negatively and that it would be better to lose a limb or eye if it would stop it than to have separation the sin can create between us and God as well as our loved ones.

Hold on tight in Episode 24 as Jesus continues the Sermon on the Mount to talk about an emotion that has been with us since we were little and didn't get our way: Anger! Those Crazy Bible Study Guys see how Jesus is not saying the laws of the old testament are wrong but goes back, again, to the heart matter which really is where the spiritual battle begins with behaviors like anger that could ultimately fester, get bigger and be the root cause of breaking the law! Join those Crazy Bible Study Guys as they get real and share how even Barney the purple dinosaur can be the source of anger!

You better get out your stompin' boots for Episode 23 as Those Crazy Bible Study Guys continue to study the Sermon on the Mount where Jesus teaches about the law. As the crowds continue to gather, Jesus opens this section of his message indicating that He is not here to dispute, deny or eradicate the Old Testament Law but He is the One that will be fulfilling the law! Those Crazy Bible Study Guys go back to the ongoing theme that Jesus is looking for action as that reflects your heart more than words! Lastly, Dale brings the mic drop this episode with some flashbacks from his Sunday school class where his teacher taught him that when you see "therefore" in the bible to pay attention just like his Sunday school teacher did with 3 stomps of his foot!

In Episode 22, Those Crazy Bible Study Guys do a quick recap of the beatitudes Jesus shared with his disciples and a growing crowd in verses 3-10. They then dive into the first two parables about salt and light that Jesus uses as analogies for our faith and putting it into action! And just like salt and light, just a little bit can make a huge impact and their absence is quickly known as well. Better join Those Crazy Bible Study Guys on this episode before the talk of salt and food sends them off to raid the kitchen or put a steak on the grill!
NOTES:To see the key lessons from the sermon on the mount, it is listed in the NIV version of the Life Application bible right after Matthew 5:3-10 (the beatitudes).

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! :)
