Episode Details

Have you ever wondered where Goliath came from? Or why the story of David and Goliath is in the Bible beyond just being a moral lesson? What if the giants mentioned in Genesis 6, the Nephilim, held deeper, more unsettling truths? Join us as we explore these questions with Douglas Van Dorn, the author of "Giants: Sons of the Gods."

We'll discuss:
-The origins and significance of giants in the Bible: Why are they mentioned, and what is their importance in biblical history?
-The mysterious Nephilim: What does Genesis 6 reveal about these supernatural beings?
-Goliath and his brothers: Did you know Goliath had siblings, including one with 24 fingers and toes? What is their ancestry, and why does it matter?
-The resurgence of interest among Bible-believing scholars: Why is the ancient view of the Nephilim making a comeback, and what does it mean for our understanding of Scripture?
-The invisible, supernatural storyline: How does understanding the giants and the Nephilim change our perspective on the ministry and work of Jesus Christ?
