My name is Derek Lambert & Once, I was a passionate born-again Christian, devoted to converting the world to my faith. I believed humanity was lost in a fallen world, destined for hell, and that Christianity held the only truthโthe only salvation. Armed with Christian apologetics, I sought to prove, beyond a shadow of doubt, that my religion was the one true faith, grounded in undeniable historical evidence. But my journey took a turn I never anticipated.
In this documentary series, Iโll take you through the unexpected path that led me from being a die-hard Christian apologist to questioning everything I once held sacred. Youโve heard the famous claimsโthat the evidence overwhelmingly proves Jesus rose from the dead as a historical event. But what happens when you start to examine the evidence from all sides, not just through the lens of faith? My goal isn't to destroy anyoneโs belief but to challenge the way we think about religion and its origins. What if the stories and traditions we once viewed as unique are deeply intertwined with those of other faiths?
This first installment dives headfirst into my journey and tackles a key debate: Did Dionysus turn water into wine long before the New Testament was written? Michael Jones of @InspiringPhilosophy confidently claims that this connection doesnโt exist before the 3rd century AD, dismissing critics with a resounding "Shut up!" But does the evidence really support him? I take a deep dive into the sourcesโbeyond the Bible, beyond Christian apologeticsโto uncover the truth behind these claims.
When I was a Christian apologist, I only interpreted the Bible through the voices of those who shared my beliefs. But what if the Bibleโs inspiration goes beyond its pagesโintertwined with myths, traditions, and religions that came long before it? This series aims to expand your understanding, showing how the shared threads of human spirituality connect us more deeply than we realize.
Join me as I unravel the beliefs I once fought to defend and explore the light that lies at the end of this tunnel of discovery.

The Bibleโs giants are the stuff of legend, blending myth, culture, and ancient storytelling into tales that have fascinated readers for centuries. But where do stories of the Nephilim, Anakim, and Rephaim really come from? Were they inspired by Greek myths, Canaanite traditions, or something even more ancient?
In this video, we unpack the origins of these legendary figures, exploring how the Bible reimagined older myths of heroic warriors and divine-human hybrids. From the mysterious "sons of God" in Genesis 6 to the larger-than-life Rephaim of Ugaritic lore and the Anakim of Canaan, weโll reveal how these stories evolved over time. We'll also compare them to the Greek myths of giants and the heroes of Homeric epics, uncovering surprising connections and cultural exchanges.
Who were the Nephilim, and why were they described as โwarriors of renownโ?
What can ancient Canaanite and Greek myths tell us about their origins?
How did flood myths and heroic tales shape these stories?
Discover how biblical scribes reworked ancient legends into a uniquely Israelite narrative, blending myth and theology to create the stories we know today.

,1,Unlock the mysteries of Asherah's origin, God's hidden wife, in this thrilling YouTube documentary. Discover her true origins and lasting impact on Judaism and Christianity through ancient texts and archeological finds.
Travel back to Mesopotamia during Hammurabi's reign, where Asherah, known as Ashratu or Ashiratum, emerges as the consort of Amurru, the Babylonian 'lord of the mountain.' Her influence spanned beyond Mesopotamia, featuring in Hittite and Canaanite myths alongside the high god El.
Trace Asherah's presence in the Old Testament until she is denigrated by the Deuteronomist. Yet, her legacy endures in Lady Wisdom, the Menorah, and Christian art depicting Mary and Jesus.

,1,For thousands of years, a misconception about the God of the Bible has persisted: the belief that God is a purely spiritual being without a physical form. This documentary challenges that notion, revealing compelling evidence that the ancient God El and YHWH bear striking similarities to other Ancient Near Eastern deities. The Bible itself contradicts the idea of an incorporeal deity, a concept that emerged only after the philosophical reforms of Plato influenced Jewish and Christian thought.
Discover how ancient texts describe a God with hands, feet, eyes, a head, arms, and a mouth, sitting on a throne in heaven, surrounded by a council of divine beings. How did this deity's image transform over time, and why? By examining language and comparative studies, we uncover how ancient worshippers perceived their God similarly to other regional deities.
This documentary builds on the groundbreaking work of Francesca Stavrakopoulou and other scholars, presenting a compelling case for re-evaluating our understanding of the Biblical God's physical form. Have believers reshaped God to fit their ideal image, or is there a deeper truth rooted in ancient traditions? Join us as we explore this fascinating journey through history, theology, and mythology.
This documentary is based off the works of Dr. Andreas Wagner, Dr. Esther J. Hamori, Dr. Benjamin D. Sommer, Dr. Christoph Markschies & Francesca Stavrakopoulou.

,1,Most Christians read the New Testament and listen to their teachers about Jesus miracles believing that they are historical acts from the 1st century. Some go further and think miracles are still happening today, but what may come as a shock to most Christians is that Jesus wasn't the first or only miracle worker. In fact, there are several other miracle workers who were far more popular in the Greek and Roman world at the time the New Testament was being written. These Gods include Hercules, Ascepius and Isis, but that's not all. There were also several mortal men we call hero's who also "supposedly" performed miracles according to their sources. These hero's include Pythagoras & his disciple Empedocles, King Pyrrhus, Caesar Augustus, Vespasian, Apollonius of Tyana, Asclepiades, Moses, Elijah and Elisha. We literally go over the primary sources which you can go see for yourself. Many of these Gods and heroes raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, mobility to the crippled, and health to the diseased. This seems to be a well established trope within the broader Greek and Roman world from which Christianity was birthed.
Our goal is to level out the playing field of miraculous claims and show the Christians who insist on their Jesus being the only one to have performed such miracles, that they need to contend with the obvious fact that this isn't the case. The Greek and Roman world was flooding with tales of Gods and heroes who performed extra-ordinary deeds. I think this path of learning can help defang fundamentalism and help people appreciate the deeper meaning of these stories and why they were written in the first place. This documentary is setting out to place Jesus in his historical, cultural & literary context. Put another way, it would be odd if the stories of Jesus didn't have miracle tales. This is what you did to your hero's & gods at this time and place in the world.
We all are born, live a life which is often full of struggles, diseases and hard to get through, then we die. The miracle stories touch on the deepest issues all humans have to experience in some ways. We should recognize that the story is what is ultimately where the meaning is.
