In this episode, Emily Jones sits down with her dad, Dr. Dav, to unpack what it really means to build a culture of grace — and why hype, chaos, and performance can quietly sabotage it.They begin by defining grace beyond the “grace period” misunderstanding. Grace isn’t permission. It’s power. It’s the prevailing goodwill of God expressed through love, honor, and hope.From team dynamics and leadership culture to Elijah’s showdown with the prophets of Baal, this conversation explores a hard question:Do we try to work something up to bring something down?Or does fire fall on simple, surrendered faith?With humor (yes, the inflatable balloon guy makes an appearance), deep theology, and a powerful closing prayer, this father-daughter conversation challenges the modern church to trade hype for humility and chaos for consecration.Have a theological question for Dr. Dav?

In this special episode, Dr. Dav joins The Collective Church as a guest teacher to address one of the most debated areas of Scripture: the role of women and men in leadership, marriage, and the life of the church.Beginning in Genesis, Dr. Dav lays a biblical foundation for understanding men and women as equal image-bearers, created as necessary partners reflecting the glory of God. He explains how sin fractured this relationship—introducing rivalry, domination, and the misuse of strength—and how the gospel of Jesus Christ restores what was broken, calling believers back into mutual honor and shared responsibility.From there, Dr. Dav carefully walks through the Pauline epistles, showing how passages from Corinthians, Ephesians, and Timothy must be read within their historical and cultural context. He explains how Greco-Roman household laws, local customs, and false teaching shaped the problems Paul was addressing—and why those texts are corrective rather than restrictive. Special attention is given to Ephesians 5, where mutual submission flows from being filled with the Spirit, and to Paul’s radical insistence that women should learn doctrine in cultures that denied them education.Throughout the teaching, Dr. Dav demonstrates how Scripture consistently affirms women as spiritual leaders, prophets, teachers, and witnesses—from the Old Testament through the early church—and why biblical authority is rooted in service, sacrifice, and covenant, not control.This episode invites listeners to read the Bible with greater care, to resist cultural distortion—ancient or modern—and to embrace the gospel’s power to restore men and women to their shared calling in Christ.Have a theological question for Dr. Dav?

In Episode 10 of Dr. Dav Knows All the Things, host Kimmie Creamer sits down with Dr. Dav to slow down and carefully consider the meaning of Immanuel—not just as a comforting phrase, but as a defining truth of the Christian faith.Returning to Matthew 1:18–23, this conversation explores why Matthew frames Jesus’ birth around fulfillment rather than spectacle. Jesus did not simply appear—He arrived exactly as God promised. Dr. Dav unpacks how the language of Immanuel (“with us is God”) leaves no room for ambiguity: Jesus is not merely near God; He is God. Drawing from Scripture’s use of El, the Strong and Mighty God, and Thomas’ confession, “My Lord and my God,” the discussion shows why worship—not mere agreement—is the only fitting response.Together, they hold God’s greatness and nearness side by side, addressing why many find comfort in God’s power but struggle with His closeness. This episode speaks directly to those carrying shame, fear, doubt, or exhaustion, reminding listeners that God made Himself known by His own choice—and He came to us in the mess, not after we were cleaned up.Whether you’re new to faith or weary from performance-based Christianity, this episode invites you to rest in what God has already decided in Christ: He is with us, near us, and for us—right now.Have a theological question for Dr. Dav?

Hosted by Julia GarrisonScripture: John 9:1–11In this episode, Julia sits down with Dr. Dav to explore the stunning miracle of a man born blind receiving his sight — a healing Jesus initiates without ever being asked. Together they unpack how Jesus sees us before we ever see Him, why our past doesn’t determine our future, and what it means that “when Jesus happens,” He does it His way.Along the way, Julia asks thoughtful theological questions about God’s foreknowledge, forgiveness and reconciliation, and how Jesus continues to open our eyes to hope and truth.They also discuss why Jesus says, “I must do the works of Him who sent me,” what this reveals about His mission, and how His unexpected methods invite us into deeper trust.Have a theological question for Dr. Dav?You can submit your questions here: I Have a QuestionChapter Markers:00:00 - Introduction to the Podcast 08:14 - Women in Ministry and Biblical Theology 10:24 - Cultural Sensitivity in Ministry 16:29 - The Majesty of Christ Above the Storm 28:52 - Final Reflections and Closing Remarks Dr. Dav Knows All the Things is a Scripture-centered, conversational podcast featuring Dr. Bryan Davenport—pastor, theologian, and record-holding powerlifter—who brings decades of study, ministry experience, and spiritual formation training to every episode.Dr. Dav holds a B.A. in Management and Organizational Leadership, a Master of Divinity (MDiv), a Master of Theology (ThM), and a Doctor of Ministry (DMin).
