  • Our Long National Nightmare is Nearly Over

    Our Long National Nightmare is Nearly Over
    Nov 4 2024
    AND THEN a whole new one begins. This has been the most bizarre presidential campaign since the Civil War. Thankfully, the campaign ends this week with Election Day Tuesday, and—we hope—a winner declared shortly thereafter. Then comes a different kind of crazy as we prepare for whoever is inaugurated January 21, 2025. Whatever happens, however, remember that God is still on His throne, none of this takes Him by surprise, and our mission as Christians has not changed. Our new book The Gates of Hell is now available in paperback, Kindle, and as an audiobook at Audible! Derek’s new book Destination: Earth, co-authored with Donna Howell and Allie Anderson, is now available in paperback, Kindle, and as an audiobook at Audible!

  • Shedding the Blood of Man

    Shedding the Blood of Man
    Oct 28 2024
    IT WAS a common practice in the ancient world. Sadly, it’s still practiced today—and closer to us than we’d think. Joining us for our annual Halloween episode, a tradition since 2010, is Dr. Judd Burton (BurtonBeyond.net). We delve into the disturbing reality of human sacrifice in the modern world, exploring its historical roots, spiritual significance, and the ongoing practices that continue to occur around the world. Judd explains the connections between bloodlust, vampirism, and ritual magic, as well as the dark underbelly of human trafficking and modern slavery. We also discuss the implications of human sacrifice in ancient cultures, the legacy of figures like Vlad Dracula, and the ongoing relevance of these themes in modern society. The dialogue delves into the linguistic roots of vampirism, the significance of archaeological sites like Gobekli Tepe, and the dark legacy of biblical narratives such as Cain and Abel. This is an issue that is only properly understood through a biblical lens. These ancient practices and beliefs still influence the modern world. If you’ve missed our previous Halloween episodes with Dr. Judd Burton, here they are: • Vampires, Werewolves, and the Nephilim (2010)• Flesh and Blood (2014)• Halloween and the Van Helsing Way (2015)• Halloween, Vampires, and Blood (2016)• Paneas, the Watchers, and the Ghosts of Giants (2017)• Terrors and Tropes (2018)• From Watchers to Witches (2019)• Gobekli Tepe and the Watchers (2020)• Supernatural Contraband (2021)• Fairy Tales and Halloween (2022)• Creepy Dolls (2023) Our new book The Gates of Hell is now available in paperback, Kindle, and as an audiobook at Audible!

  • Iron and Myth 34: Gods of Greece in the Bible

    Iron and Myth 34: Gods of Greece in the Bible
    Oct 21 2024
    OLYMPIANS, Titans, and demigod heroes in the Bible? Yes, and the Jews of Jesus’ day knew it. Joining us to discuss what most of us call “mythology” is our Iron and Myth crew: Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), director of The Institute of Biblical Anthropology and author of Interview with the Giant and The Nephilim Chronicles, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of Chronicles of the Nephilim, Chronicles of the Watchers, the theological thriller Cruel Logic, and a forthcoming novel relevant to this month’s discussion based on the period of the Maccabees in Judea. We discuss the intricate relationship between Greek mythology and biblical narratives, particularly focusing on the influence of Greco-Roman religion on Jewish thought, and the significance of the Abomination of Desolation (Dan. 9:27, 11:31, 12:11; Matt. 24:15). We also explore the role of demigods and the Rephaim in ancient beliefs, the reality of ancient deities, and how the New Testament engages with Greek mythology. Doug highlights subversive storytelling in the Book of Acts, undermining Greek stories about the gods Zeus and Hermes. And we discuss the influence of ancient oracles on early Christianity; specifically, how the spread of the gospel silenced the oracles of Apollo, which provoked the most intense persecution of Christians in the history of the Roman Empire. Finally, we discuss the significance of the Septuagint and how it provides insights into biblical texts that may have been lost in translation, emphasizing the supernatural elements present in the Bible.

Great Research

I love everything that comes out of the Gilbert House. I have listened to Tom Horn LAMarzulli Derek Gilbert Josh Peck. Im a amatuer researcher and in my opinion this is gold. The bible leaves alot of unanswered questions it even leaves alot of places for questions you dont even realize and Derek is amazing at finding this info making it entertaining enough to listen to without trying to be hollywood. I got started at 9/11 so i have listen to over 20 years of people and their research and Derek is at the very top of my list of peoples info i trust. Russ Dizdar was first but hes no longer here on earth with us so now Derek is number 1. Thanks for all you do i cant wait to hear more of what you have uncovered keep up the great work and thank you for all you and your team do may God bless all of you and your lives and your loved ones.

Is the Bible extremely confusing?

This show helps to open your mind to the whole complex content of the Bible through the eyes of the Ancient Near East. Interviews with Scholars who specialize in specifics of the ancient language and the Ancients gods who were part of that ancient society. Mind blowing and totally worth the listen

Great connections from great minds!

The more that I follow Derek (let's not forget Sharon 😉) the smaller he seems to make our world! Derek has a way with the excitement behind his words/thoughts and his ability to make "easy" (or what's seen as easy in hindsight) connections to how we've been deceived by "the other team!"

I've always thought that voodoo was "wrong" but I've never bothered to connect it with nephilim/rephaim practices. Thank you for all that ya'll have done to put these pieces of the puzzle together and showing us what we've been missing and questioning!

Excellent info!

I’ve been following this subject for a while but this had new information I hadn’t heard before. I also love that it wasn’t just one giant infomercial (pun intended). Great listen!
