{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Rabbit Holes & Meditations - Christian Bible Study","slug":"gregenewell","podcastDescription":"

Tired of preachy, judgmental sermons? Rabbit Holes & Meditations is a Bible study podcast that trades performance for honest Christian conversation. We walk through Jesus’ words chronologically (this season), chase down the “rabbit holes” most people avoid, and let Scripture interpret Scripture.

This show is for intentionally curious Christians who want depth without the drama. Sometimes we’ll spend 30 minutes on two verses—because careful reading matters. You’ll get biblical references, cross-references, deep dives, and real-life application around faith, fear, forgiveness, judgment, prayer, and hope—without being told what to think.

We follow a strict “Bible interprets the Bible” approach we call the Berean Bible Study Filter, designed to keep teaching grounded and unencumbered by third-party commentary. Bring your questions—nothing is off the table. Come curious, leave grounded.

Rabbit Holes and Meditations

I am your quintessential conspiracy theorist. I don't believe anything without digging deep. I don't take anything for granted. I have to \"know\" something to believe it. I like to study it, mull it over, think about it, question it and learn from it. When I find a nugget, I love to share it.

I could have taken this podcast down so many paths, but the one I chose is the path I've always been on.

My life without God led me to God.

I generate these podcasts by conversing with AI systems. The ideas come from my natural need to know more. AI affords me access to resources to create deep, enriching answers to my questions.

One caveat: AI is fallable. There are even times when I'll release a podcast that I don't even agree with! The point is to get you to think and engage.

(note: references to things like \"the excerpt and content\" are simply because speakers are referencing a document I've put in front of them that is AI generated script with no real author. I created the idea for the podcast but AI scripted it.)

Because this is so important, I want to provide my own AI Prompt which you are free to use for your own AI Biblical Studies.

FINAL NOTE:
If you’ve made it this far, I want to speak to you plainly. I'm probably not a lot different than you. We're walking this road together.

The Bible says that every one of us has sinned — not just in our behavior, but in our hearts. Sin isn’t merely doing bad things; it’s living apart from God, rejecting His authority, and falling short of His glory (Romans 3:23). That sin brings judgment. Not just physical death, but eternal separation from God (Hebrews 9:27).

But the good news — the best news — is that God sent His Son, Jesus Christ, into the world to save sinners. He lived a sinless life. He died on a Roman cross. And He rose again on the third day. His death wasn’t symbolic — it was substitutionary. He took the wrath that sinners deserve, so that through Him, we might be forgiven.

Salvation is not earned. It’s not found in church attendance, moral effort, or spiritual feelings. It comes only by repenting of sin and trusting in Jesus Christ — crucified, risen, and reigning — as Lord and Savior.

If you’ve never done that, now is the time. Don’t delay. This isn’t about religion. It’s about your eternal soul.

If you’re unsure, wrestling, or have questions — reach out. Don’t walk away from the truth. Christ is calling. Respond to Him today.

I'm not a preacher, a prophet, or even a very good evangelist. I'm walking the same road as you. Still, if you need someone to listen to you, send me a note. Maybe I can help.

The disciples finally leave the upper room, but this is the proverbial out of the frying pan into the fire. They retreat to Gethsemane, and this is where we pick up in today's podcast.

Specifically, we are looking at Matthew 26:36-45, Mark 14:32-41, and Luke 22:39-46.
