What if the best lessons aren't in the book?

MTB Ep. 26: 6th Sunday of Easter (Cycle C)

The best values aren’t locked away in sacred texts—they’re lived every day. How can we focus on what really matters and pass it on? Let’s dive into that!


Have you ever noticed how the most important things in life aren’t tied to any one place or moment? It’s easy to think that meaning is locked away in holy books or ancient traditions, but what if it’s actually all around us—waiting to be noticed, lived, and shared with others?

Welcome to Mythologizing the Bible—where we’ll be taking a look at three readings from the Bible through the lens of “sacred myth.”

In this episode, we’re exploring the messages and lessons in Biblical passages that remind us to look beyond the supernatural claims and focus on the real-world impact of our values and ideals. We’ll explore how discernment and critical thinking can lead to decisions that benefit the most people, why the things that truly matter are important everywhere—not just in temples or cathedrals—and how our values can live on long after we’re gone, carried forward in the lives we touch.
