What does it mean to drink the cup of wrath? And why does Scripture use the language of vineyards, vintage, and wine to describe divine judgment?

In this richly layered episode, Carey walks us through the biblical vineyard—from Genesis to Revelation—where wine is not merely a blessing but a mirror. Here, wrath is not divine temper but a giving-over: the slow fermentation of unrepentant desire, poured back upon those who distilled it.

Drawing from Mark Scarlata, Geoff Johnson, 1 Enoch, and a range of biblical texts, this teaching explores how judgment, joy, and justice are deeply entwined—and how even wrath can be redemptive in the hands of God.

• Why wrath is about relationship
• How joy and judgment grow from the same vine
• What the prophets, the land, and the nations show us about divine patience
• Why drinking deeply matters—and who offers the final cup
