Game: 'jump in the hole' — digging deeper into Bible study

  • What problem does the solution 'if you want to dig in deeper, sometimes you have to jump in the hole' solve?

The host addressed on-air as Ben launches the new game: he gives the solution — 'if you want to dig in deeper, sometimes you have to jump in the hole' — and the others guess the problem (stagnant faith, helping people, shallow relationships). He reveals the real target: shallow Bible study habits, where people read Romans 1-9 and retreat to the bullet point they already knew ('we were bought with a price') instead of staying in the passage. The hosts extend the point: read Scripture with the same curiosity you'd bring to any other book, asking why everyone is mad at that guy or why the woman is at the well alone. Mid-segment the Truth Network radio audience is dismissed and sponsor reads air for the Eisenlauer team (Bob Eisenlauer, ASR 'Eisenhower') and Westfield Veterinary Hospital.
