"One is willing to let the baby die rather than the other one have her, versus the one who would give the baby up to save the baby's life. That's the two wisdoms between godly wisdom and earthly wisdom."

That line from the Robertson family's discussion on Unashamed captures the episode's core tension. The conversation weaves together a bizarre real-life security breach at Jase's house, a deep dive into the Hebrew word for wisdom (chokmah), and a re-reading of the Garden of Eden story. The throughline is a practical question: what does it actually look like to live by wisdom that comes from above, versus wisdom that is merely human?

A Breach, a Gravedigger, and a Sign

The episode opens with a story that is equal parts unsettling and absurd. Jase, after twelve days of travel, is home in his pajamas when a man he hasn't seen in five years—a funeral home director nicknamed "the Gravedigger"—shows up at his door with three friends from the Texas Motor Speedway.

Show Notes

A surprising comparison between pornography and marriage reframes the conversation around sex, beauty, and what can only be understood over the course of a faithful life. Jase, Al, and Zach connect that idea to the difference between what looks good in the moment and what actually leads to life, tracing the pattern from Eden to Solomon to the book of James. Jase also recounts the bizarre moment uninvited visitors made it through his security setup and wound up getting an unexpected message about Jesus and the resurrection.
