What does the word God really mean? Has it always meant the same thing? In this episode, Jon Moffitt and Doug Van Dorn dive deep into the etymology of Elohim, Theos, Deus, and God, unpacking how language and culture have shaped our understanding of the divine.

Whether you’re a theology nerd or simply curious about how words shape belief, this discussion will challenge and expand the way you read your Bible.
