A New Teaching Series Begins

Introduction

There are moments in biblical study when a subject refuses to stay quiet. It lingers, it raises questions; it invites deeper reflection. For many readers, the Nephilim are one of those subjects — appearing briefly in Scripture, yet echoing across the biblical story in ways that are anything but small.

Over the next several weeks, I’ll be releasing a new teaching series titled Tracing the Nephilim: Scripture, History, and the Unseen Realm. This series will explore one of the most mysterious threads in the biblical narrative, following it from Genesis to the prophets, from the ancient world to the New Testament, and from the visible realm to the unseen.

Why This Series Matters

The Nephilim are not the center of Scripture — but they are part of its architecture. They appear at moments of transition, judgment, rebellion, and divine intervention. They stand at the intersection of:

• human pride
• spiritual rebellion
• ancient memory
• the biblical worldview of the unseen realm

Understanding them does not distract from the gospel; it clarifies the story the gospel fulfills.

This series will not sensationalize the subject. It will not chase myths or modern speculation. Instead, it will follow the biblical text closely, listening carefully to what Scripture actually says — and what it does not say.

What You Can Expect

Each installment will explore a specific dimension of the topic:

• Genesis 6 and the Days of Noah
• The Ancient Near Eastern context
• The connection to Babel and human rebellion
• The giants of Canaan and the theological landscape of conquest
• The echoes in the prophets
• The New Testament’s perspective on the unseen realm
• How these themes shape our understanding of spiritual conflict today

The goal is clarity, not confusion. Biblical grounding, not speculation. A faithful exploration of a difficult subject — handled with care.

A Final Word Before We Begin

My hope is simple: that this series strengthens your confidence in Scripture, deepens your understanding of the biblical worldview, and helps you see the unity of the biblical story with greater clarity.

The Nephilim are not the center of the Bible — but they are part of the story the Bible is telling. And sometimes, exploring the edges helps us see the center more clearly.

I hope to see you when our Investigation begins,
