  • Ep 168: Why Jesus Had To Die On The Cross
    Apr 10 2026

    "Consider Jesus as the Undercover Boss: today’s episode depicts how the unrecognized Creator fulfilled sacrifices, bore sin, removed barriers, and triumphed through the cross, turning judgment into redemption. Do YOU recognize Him?"

    We connect Good Friday to the Bible’s bigger story and answer the hard question of why Jesus has to die on the cross. We trace the logic from Genesis to the prophets to the temple and show how “It is finished” means the debt is paid and access to God is opened.

    Jesus as the ultimate Undercover Boss who enters His world unrecognized
    John 1 and the Word as Creator and Light
    Genesis and the origin of sin and death
    Sin as missing the mark and God’s perfection as the standard
    • Why “all have sinned” creates the need for rescue
    Leviticus and the scapegoat as a picture of substitution
    Isaiah 53 and the suffering servant bearing our iniquity
    The scarlet thread of redemption and the worm illustration
    Hebrews and Jesus as priest, sacrifice, and mediator of the new covenant
    Wrath poured out on Christ and judgment passing over those who trust Him
    • “Paid in full,” the torn temple curtain, and restored access to God
    Communion and the promise that Sunday is coming

  • Ep 167: Loving Leviticus - And Why Most People Hate It (Part 2)
    Apr 3 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    "Can you think of any Bible books you dislike or even hate reading? For many, it's Leviticus. Today, Pastor Dan Shunk continues the discussion about his new book, Loving Leviticus: And Why Most People Hate It."

    Leviticus stops feeling random when we read it with Hebrews and let Jesus be the key that unlocks the offerings, the priesthood, and the tabernacle. We trace how “types and shadows” move from sin being covered to sin being removed, then land on a leprosy cleansing ritual that paints a surprising picture of resurrection.

    • the burnt offering as total dedication to God
    • the five offerings as facets of Christ’s one sacrifice
    sin covered under the old covenant versus propitiation at the cross
    Hebrews as the lens for understanding Leviticus
    Christ as greater priest than Aaron in the order of Melchizedek
    leprosy as the biblical picture of sin and discernment
    Leviticus 14 and the two birds as a resurrection portrait
    • reading the Bible to find Jesus on every page
    Scripture over experience and “they have Moses and the prophets”

    "Have you ever tried to read Leviticus and found yourself stuck and lost? Well, today we talk with Pastor Dan Shunk about his new book that will absolutely get you unstuck."

    We sit down with Pastor Daniel Shunk to talk about his new book, Loving Leviticus and Why Most People Hate It, and why so many readers stall when they reach this part of the Bible. We walk through the laws, feasts, and offerings to show how Leviticus points to Jesus Christ and why it still matters under the New Covenant.

    Why Leviticus feels confusing to modern readers
    Why Pastor Daniel writes a book defending Leviticus
    The “Ted and Joe” argument and the common Leviticus gotcha
    Separating civil law from ceremonial law from moral law
    • Reading Old Testament rituals as types and shadows of Christ
    Passover and the feasts as a timeline of Jesus’ work
    • Why God delights when we dig for meaning
    • The five main offerings and the many facets of the cross
    Covering versus true atonement and Christ as the final High Priest
