Wise Disciple with Nate Sala

If you feel like God is distant… you’re not alone. Many Christians assume that if they don’t feel the Holy Spirit, God must not be near. But that assumption isn’t biblical. In this video, we look at Psalm 27, John 15, and the covenant promise of God’s presence — even in seasons of spiritual dryness.📖 Study DeeperSecond Channel:https://www.youtube.com/@EveryWord_WD🧠 Bible Study ToolsLogos (2 months free):www.logos.com/WiseDiscipleBiblingo (Code: WISEDISCIPLE10):https://biblingo.org/pricing/?ref=wisedisciple🤝 Support the ChannelPatreon:https://www.patreon.com/WiseDisciple5-Day Reading Plan:https://www.patreon.com/collection/565289?view=expanded🎓 TrainingDebate Masterclass:https://wisedisciple.org/masterclass👕 Merchhttps://www.wisedisciple.shop🌐 Website / Speakinghttps://www.wisedisciple.orghttps://wisedisciple.org/reserve

We are building something that God has disrupted before!In Genesis 11 humanity built a tower to reach the heavens – to secure power and unity on their own terms. And God blew up their plans.Today we are building a new tower with the same ambition – only this time it’s made of artificial intelligence! And the people making it are saying they don’t understand how it works or how to fully control it!We may be repeating one of the oldest rebellions in human history and most people don’t even see it!Check out my second channel for deep Bible study: https://www.youtube.com/@EveryWord_WDGrab 2 months free with Logos right now: www.logos.com/WiseDiscipleTry Biblingo at a discount using Code: WISEDISCIPLE10 https://biblingo.org/pricing/?ref=wisediscipleCheck out my Debate Masterclass: https://wisedisciple.org/masterclassSupport me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WiseDiscipleGet my 5 Day Bible Reading Plan here: https://www.patreon.com/collection/565289?view=expandedGet your Wise Disciple merch here: https://bit.ly/wisediscipleWant a BETTER way to communicate your Christian faith?

Most of us were taught that the Tower of Babel is a story about pride. People got arrogant, they built a tower, God didn't like that so He shut it down. But that's not actually what the text is telling us!Babel isn't about skyscrapers or technology. It's about authority.And by the end of this video, you're going to see that God did not INTERVENE because humans were TOO capable — He intervened because they were about to steal an authority that would have destroyed them. Check out my second channel for deep Bible study: https://www.youtube.com/@EveryWord_WDGrab 2 months free with Logos right now: www.logos.com/WiseDiscipleTry Biblingo at a discount using Code: WISEDISCIPLE10 https://biblingo.org/pricing/?ref=wisediscipleCheck out my Debate Masterclass: https://wisedisciple.org/masterclassSupport me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WiseDiscipleGet my 5 Day Bible Reading Plan here: https://www.patreon.com/collection/565289?view=expandedGet your Wise Disciple merch here: https://bit.ly/wisediscipleWant a BETTER way to communicate your Christian faith?

Now, before you answer too quickly, remember — that’s exactly what Genesis 22 SOUNDS like God does with Abraham.For a lot of people, this story isn’t just confusing. It’s disturbing.But here’s the key: God does not EVER tell Abraham to slaughter his son! Once you see what the text is actually saying, the entire story changes.Check out my second channel for deep Bible study: https://www.youtube.com/@EveryWord_WDGrab 2 months free with Logos right now: www.logos.com/WiseDiscipleTry Biblingo at a discount using Code: WISEDISCIPLE10 https://biblingo.org/pricing/?ref=wisediscipleCheck out my Debate Masterclass: https://wisedisciple.org/masterclassSupport me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/WiseDiscipleGet my 5 Day Bible Reading Plan here: https://www.patreon.com/collection/565289?view=expandedGet your Wise Disciple merch here: https://bit.ly/wisediscipleWant a BETTER way to communicate your Christian faith?

A night time wrestling match with a divine figure is unpacked as a pivotal turning point in Genesis. The speaker traces Jacob’s lifelong deceit and explains why this confrontation happens alone. Listeners hear why blessing arrives only after painful dependence and how struggle reshapes identity and the way one walks with God.

Joel Webbon, a debater and theologian, dives into the contentious topic of interracial marriage, arguing it strays from God's normative design as outlined in scripture. He distinguishes between norms and absolute prohibitions while discussing the role of marriage in preserving biblical peoples. Webbon raises concerns about societal implications, linking modern advocacy to theological misinterpretations of race and peoplehood. Nate Sala skillfully critiques these points, challenging the lack of scriptural support for Webbon's claims.
