In this episode, I take a closer look at the book of Romans, specifically chapter 11. It’s a chapter that’s often misunderstood and misquoted, especially in Christian Zionist circles. As an ex-Muslim who found faith in Christ, I share my personal journey wrestling with this scripture, exploring what Paul really meant, and why it matters for both Jews and Gentiles today. This podcast is my space to discuss religion, culture, and faith, always seeking to understand God’s word and how it influences our lives. Join me as I break down complex theology, challenge misconceptions, and encourage you to dig deeper into the Bible for yourself.
