Mike went out of his way to share his research with what he called “Christian Middle-Earth”–those of us who aren’t scholars, but who want more theological meat than we get in most churches (and most corners of the Internet).
Mike passed into glory this past Monday, February 20, 2023 at the age of 60 following an 18-month struggle with an aggressive pancreatic cancer. He worked right up to the end, setting an example and leaving a legacy for all of us in the Body of Christ.
Here we present our very first conversation with Mike, recorded in the spring of 2005, when this podcast was still called Mytharc Radio, on a jury-rigged setup the involved cheap gaming headset mics, a Radio Shack gizmo alligator-clipped to our house phone, a Sony video camera, and a laptop–hence the awful quality of the audio. But this conversation literally changed the course of our lives.
Farewell, Mike, until we meet again.

PAUL WROTE about it, and yet we understand so little of the battle:
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. — Eph 6:12, KJV
We discuss a number of fronts in the spiritual war this week, including the earthquake in Haiti (and the ways it’s been hijacked to promote various political and spiritual points of view); Avatar, Legion and The Book of Eli; rash of suicides at France Telecom; and UFOs over Tracy, CA, a town that saw a number of twisted sex crimes in 2009.
We also recommend several good resources to help understand the nature of the war: The Divine Council website by Dr. Michael S. Heiser, A Modern Guide to Demons and Fallen Angels by Paradox Brown, and Ancient Myths and The Bible by King Wells, Jr.

- What implications does the Divine Council model have for Christian theology?
- How does this affect our lives?
In a nutshell, the Divine Council is the group of divine beings — seraphim, cherubim, and malakim — who make up the court of God. It’s referenced most notably in I Kings 22:19-23 and Psalm 82.
The rebellion of the fallen angels has taken place in several stages:
- The “serpent” in Eden;
- The Watchers of Genesis chapter 6, whose interaction with human women produced the Nephilim;
- The seventy “sons of God” (bene elohim) who were placed over the nations after the incident at the Tower of Babel.
Those 70 bene elohim became the gods of the nations around the ancient Hebrews: Marduk, Molech, Chemosh, Baal, Asherah, Dagon, and the rest. They are still with us, and their goal is the destruction of mankind.
In addition to his biblical studies, Mike is the author of The Facade, a mind-blowing novel that includes his research in great detail. It’s a great read, and he includes a bibliography with some great sources for further study.
