32 Foundations 103 – What’s Old Is New Again: Judaizers and Gnosticism August 25, 2026 Last time, I promised we’d look at the “lost gospels” – books like Thomas and Judas, and why the early church didn’t accept them. I want to go further than just history because the ideas behind those rejected books didn’t…
31 Foundations 102 – Who Decided What’s In the Bible?

26 When Obedience Makes Things Worse – Stay the Course July 5, 2026 Last week we looked at Moses in the desert. The forty years of preparation. The burning bush.
