Deeper Waters: Recent Episodes
Amonie Akens & Elijah Wilson
The creators of Pescados Bros, Amonie Akens & Elijah Wilson are here to dive deep into the word of God to help us become better disciples. Fulfilling the call in Matthew 4:19 to be fishers of men, we strive to present the complexities of the Bible in a form that's a bit easier to digest. Essentially, this podcast is a Gen Z Bible study designed to equip young disciples and create new disciples.

How does God get glory out of the gruesome? What about strange verses like 1 Corinthians 5:5: “To deliver such an one unto Satan for the destruction of the flesh, that the spirit may be saved in the day of the Lord Jesus.”
Even a 'righteous' man like Job and even Jesus in the flesh was 'delivered 'unto the devil for the destruction of the flesh... the impact of this will end in destruction or deliverance but the choice is yours...
