"Nothing Remains Buried": Heaven, Earth, and the Book of James

Jase Robertson had just finished speaking at a pregnancy center fundraiser in Glenwood Springs, Colorado, when he discovered that the historic Hotel Colorado where he was staying had hosted Doc Holliday in the final months of his life. Holliday, dying of tuberculosis, had come for the mineral springs. He died at 37 and is buried on a hill overlooking the town — a grave marker placed where the actual location is uncertain. The coincidence of standing in a place where a famous outlaw had come to extend his life, while speaking to save lives, set the stage for a much deeper rabbit hole.

That rabbit hole started when Jase began querying an AI about 1 Corinthians 15, specifically the phrase about people being "baptized for the dead" — a passage he says he has never understood in 43 years as a believer. The AI generated a phrase that stopped him cold: "In God's economy, nothing remains buried." That line became the thread tying together the entire summary of the book of James, the doctrine of resurrection, and the nature of Christian community.

Show Notes

Jase’s late-night Bible study takes a personal turn when a puzzling verse about baptism for the dead brings Phil’s passing into focus. Al returns from Colorado with stories of Doc Holliday’s grave, Teddy Roosevelt’s hotel suite, and a secret escape tunnel built for Al Capone. Zach connects an Old Testament promise about God’s glory to the way believers live today. The guys wrap up James with a discussion of prayer, resurrection, and why the faith vs. works argument misses the bigger picture.
