Here’s Why You Don’t Need A Bible

Last updated on: October 4, 2025 at 7:59 pm By Keith Giles

Let’s talk about what’s wrong with the idea of a Biblical Canon. You know — The 66 books of the Protestant Bible. Not the 73 books of the Catholic Bible, or the 77 books in the Orthodox Bible, or even the 81 books in the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible. We’re only talking about the ones God supposedly rubber-stamped through a bunch of bishops, councils, and creeds hundreds of years after Jesus walked the earth. The truly inspired books that now make... Read more

The Quantum Reality of Divine Consciousness

Last updated on: July 8, 2025 at 10:31 pm By Keith Giles

0 Comments

This week, I sat down with author Mo Thomas on my solo podcast, Second Cup with Keith. One thing we talked about was the idea that we’re all connected—not just metaphorically or spiritually—but scientifically, vibrationally, quantum-ly. (Yes, that’s a word.) This isn’t just woo-woo stuff for the mystically minded. This is rooted in quantum theory, holographic principles, and a deeper understanding of what Divine Consciousness actually is. And, as we lean into this reality it just might just transform—and heal—everything.... Read more

Why Paul Literally Reads Scripture Allegorically

Last updated on: June 18, 2025 at 3:42 pm By Keith Giles

[Guest Post by Richard Murray] Those who say we are not to allegorize the Old Testament “missed the memo” from the New Testament which says that is exactly what we ARE to do— allegorize the Old Testament with the love and light of Christ.
