Begin Here · The Door In
Start Here
One man, working through the Bible with the best tools he has, with the door open so you can walk in and watch the work.
A public study log. Field notes from one working-class IT guy in Jackson, Ohio reading in Michael Heiser’s lane — divine council theology, Ancient Near East background, the strange and the supernatural taken seriously.
Not a ministry. Not a platform. One person doing the work with the door open. More about what this is →
Start anywhere. The four links below are the floor.
