"All The Things That Matter" on BrightU: Understanding the Old and New Covenants

By jacobthomas // 2025-06-27

• In Episode 2 of "All The Things That Matter," Dr. Sherri Tenpenny and bestselling author Brad Cummings discuss the Old and New Covenants, challenging common religious misconceptions.
• They talk about how the Old Covenant was humanity's failed contract, not God's ideals, and that salvation is a present transformation, not just a future promise.
• Cummings emphasizes that God's response to sin is pursuit, not anger and how most churches preach an "obsolete" covenant, prioritizing rules over direct relationship with God.
• Cummings also talks about how the New Covenant replaces human effort with God's unconditional vow to transform from within, removing shame through relationship (not religious management).

What's in store for you in Episode 2

In Episode 2 of "All The Things That Matter," slated for July 6, Dr. Sherri Tenpenny sits down with her dear friend Brad Cummings — bestselling author of "The Shack," former pastor and powerhouse spiritual thinker — for a mind-bending discussion on the two Covenants: Old and New. From the Garden of Eden to Mount Sinai, Cummings reveals how religion has distorted God's heart — and what it really means to walk in the New Covenant's freedom. Viewers can expect to learn a lot of things from Episode 1, including the following:

• How the Old Covenant was man's promise to obey (and why it failed) and why the New Covenant is God's unconditional vow to transform us from within.
• Why do most believers miss the present-tense power of salvation.
• Why God wanted to speak directly to His people, but they ran away instead and settled for rules.
• God's response to Adam and Eve's sin wasn't anger—it was pursuit.
• Why shame management (religion) can't compare to shame removal (relationship).

This episode dives deep into the biblical foundation that few dare to explore: the Two Covenants, and what they truly mean for us in these unprecedented times. To tie it all in, Cummings' closing prayer invites viewers to break free from dead religion and embrace God's vow.
