  • Summary

  • Rev. Matt Brough raises questions and occasionally gives some answers that are raised by looking at the library of ancient wisdom known as the Bible. The Bible Tells Me What is a podcast where we wonder out loud about what the Bible meant in its original context, what it might mean now, and how the places the Bible leads us are often surprising and challenging.

    Doubting Thomas and All the Other Doubters

    A Reflection on John 20:24-31

    One of the disciples is known as a doubter, but actually they all doubted, and we all do too at one time or another. The amazing thing is that Jesus just shows up and helps Thomas believe that he really is risen. We then get an encouragement to believe/abide in Christ (even if we don't see or have proof of his risen identity) and to receive  life.

    Forgiving and Retaining Sins - What's That About?
    Apr 19 2022

    In John 20:19-23, Jesus sends his followers after giving them his peace, and the gift of the Spirit, but he tells them that if they forgive the sins of anyone they are forgiven, and if they "retain the sins" of anyone they are retained. Just what might that mean for us?
