EP. 28 – The Babylon Trials (Week 5)

Daniel chapter 5 tells the story of a king who ignored every warning.

Belshazzar celebrated while judgment was already set in motion.

In the middle of the feast, a hand appears and writes a message that would seal the fate of Babylon:

Weighed and found wanting.

In this episode of Unchained Bible Study, Alex and Richie explore the meaning behind this moment and what it reveals about pride, accountability, and the consequences of ignoring God.

From celebration… to judgment… in a single night.

Daniel 5.

The Babylon Trials continue.

EP. 27 – The Babylon Trials (Week 4)

Daniel chapter 4 tells the story of a king who had everything — power, influence, and control — and lost it all in a moment.

Nebuchadnezzar’s fall wasn’t caused by another kingdom, but by pride.

In this episode of Unchained Bible Study, Alex and Richie explore the warning found in Daniel 4 and what it reveals about pride, humility, and the authority of God over every life.

From rise… to fall… to restoration.

Daniel 4 shows that what God humbles, He can also restore.

EP. 7 – Unchained Podcast

Proverbs 6:18 warns about feet that run toward evil.

In this episode, Alex and Richie take a different approach.

We introduce Mischievia — a scenario-based game where real-life situations force real decisions. Each choice reveals something deeper about the heart and how easily we justify what we know isn’t right.

What starts as a game quickly turns into a deeper conversation about human nature, mischief, and the condition of the heart.

EP. 26 – The Babylon Trials (Week 3)

Daniel chapter 3 tells the story of three men who refused to bow.

Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were commanded to worship Babylon’s golden image, but their faith would not bend — even when the punishment was the fiery furnace.

In this episode of Unchained Bible Study, Alex and Richie explore what this moment means for believers today.

We talk about faith through trials, cultural pressure to conform, and how ancient Babylon’s system of forced worship mirrors the challenges believers face in the modern world.

We also touch on how emerging technology and talking images raise interesting questions that echo themes later seen in the Book of Revelation.

Daniel 3.

Faith in the fire.

EP. 8 – Unchained Podcast

In Proverbs 6, Scripture lists several things the Lord hates. One of them is a heart that devises wicked plans.

In this episode, Alex and Richie explore what the Bible means by this warning and why the condition of the heart matters so deeply in the Christian life.

From ancient wisdom to modern culture, this conversation looks at how evil intentions begin internally before they ever become actions.

Proverbs 6 reminds us that sin often starts long before anyone else can see it.

EP. 25 – The Babylon Trials (Week 2)

Babylon believed it was unstoppable.

In Daniel chapter 2, King Nebuchadnezzar has a dream so disturbing that none of his advisors can explain it. But the dream isn’t just about Babylon — it’s about the rise and fall of kingdoms and the danger of pride.

In this episode of Unchained Bible Study, we explore the meaning of the statue prophecy, the pride of Babylon, and the warning God gave through Daniel.

From ancient empires to modern culture, the message is clear: pride blinds nations and people alike.

This conversation explores the biblical meaning behind the phrase, why it matters to God, and how believers should think about justice and the value of human life in today’s culture.

The Babylon Trials – Week 1

Daniel didn’t fall in Babylon. He was formed there.

In Daniel 1, we explore what happens when God allows exile, identity gets challenged, and conviction is tested. Before the miracles, before the lions’ den, before the influence — there was separation.

Why did Daniel refuse the king’s food?
Why did God allow captivity?
And what does James teach about the purpose of trials?

This episode unpacks identity, pressure, discipline, and the long game of God in seasons of testing.

Daniel 1.
James 1.
Exile & Identity.
