Deep Dive with Solomon
Episode focus: Solomon’s promised peace, compromised heart, and the difference between possessing wisdom and applying it.

How Did Solomon Bag All Those Baddies? Who Was The Baddest?

Is God an Aura Farmer?
In this episode of hem&ems, the hosts tackle a real question from their youth group: “Is God an aura farmer?” Using Merriam‑Webster’s definition of “aura farming,” they unpack what it means to be “impressively cool,” walk through stories of God’s glory in Exodus and Acts, and explain why God doesn’t “farm aura” but naturally radiates it—and how Christians are called to reflect that glory in everyday life.
