The Bible Bunker
The Bible Bunker is a Bible Podcast that we (Zach Anderson and Michael DeMile) started on November 24th, 2021. Our goal with this podcast is to take listeners through different important Biblical principles, and not only teach specific things in/about the Bible, but how to read the Bible and consider it in some ways that most Western Christians aren't used to, but that most Eastern Christians do, which is originally who the Bible was written to. The podcast is free to listen to, and our hope is just to reach as many people as possible with the simple yet complex Word of God. Shalom!

De-Greece-ing the Church: Part 1
•
Michael DeMile & Zach Anderson
The Bible was written to a Jewish audience who had a certain culture, and therefore, a certain way of life that is unique from any other! After all, God wanted Israel to be "holy", which means to be "set apart".
But as Westerners, we (obviously) do not have that culture; in fact, we have been much more influenced by the culture of the Greeks in ways that we don't often think and bout, and that many of us don't even know!
Today, Zach and Michael talk about the influences of ancient Greek culture on our society today, and how it affects our reading of the Bible and our understanding of Christianity in general.
