Everything is oversold these days. Hyperbole is the new normal. So when a friend lent me a book claiming my worship would be change in just 7 words, I was not very expectant.I did eventually read the book. Find out in today's episode if it liv
Once again we return to Jesus' teaching about himself in John chapter 5, and what we discover about his exalted position might not match what you've always been taught (or what you've assumed to be true). Join us as we talk about the idea of Ag
There are a number of fairly common errors we make when we read Scripture, especially when we are new to the practice. However, every once in a while even the experts get it wrong. Today we find one such case as we discuss John 5.#christology
When Jesus went back to his hometown, he didn't exactly get a very expectant welcome. However, that doesn't mean that nobody believed! And for those who did, he showed his great mercy and power.Today we look at the account of a desperate dad
Why do people believe in Jesus? The exact blend of reasons varies from person to person, but as with most things, we can make some generalizations. In today's return to the book of John, we see a few evident reasons why the Samaritans accepted
We wrap up our "Anatomy of a Conversion" with a final few tips about the importance of remembering that what seems 'natural' and 'normal' to us might be more a factor of our cultural presuppositions rather than the Bible's "plain meaning." We'l
If you've grown up believing that all your beliefs are "Biblical" (because why would your church teach un-Biblical things?!), it can be pretty disorienting to consider that one of your beliefs might be wrong. In today's episode, we consider th
Every year most Christians celebrate Holy Week by commemorating a Friday crucifixion and a Sunday empty tomb. Is this correct? Since childhood I was irked by the idea that a Friday crucifixion wouldn't fulfill the "sign of Jonah" given in Matth
Your beliefs are being rocked, you're not sure where to even start dealing with this new dilemma you're facing, and you're afraid of where this all might lead. Now what?As we continue exploring the anatomy of a conversion, we'll discuss what t
Central to the Christian faith is the idea that Jesus Christ opened the door for people of every tribe, tongue, and nation to enter into his kingdom, the family of God, by repenting of their sin and confessing him as Lord. Christianity also tea
The woman at the well knew she was talking to someone special when he demonstrated supernatural knowledge. Her impulse was to finally settle a matter of doctrinal debate! We aren't that much different when we pore over our Bibles looking for th
There is a prophesy in Isaiah that foretells one who would be called "Immanuel", or "God with us." But in what way would God be with us? An account in Luke 8 may indicate that the normal Christian assumption about God's presence with us as full
What exactly IS the gift of God?When Jesus met the woman at the well in John 4, he was seeking to avoid the attention of the Jewish leaders in Jerusalem. Tired, he sits down and makes and incredible offer to an untouchable woman. That same o
Those who highly value the Bible often assume that their years of study mean they have progressed from spiritual infancy to maturity. In today's episode, we discover that often quite the opposite is true--that complex arguments leading to incr
In December 2023, the Vatican released a document regarding pastoral blessings, which was promptly weaponized by countless Christians against the Pope, many of whom likely did not bother to read the document itself. News media was filled with h
Some of the red-letter words in your Bible might not have been spoken by Jesus, some of your assumptions about receiving the Holy Spirit might not be completely Biblical, and Jesus' ability to speak the very words of God was a result of the ind
Sometimes, the most important things we need to hear come in the most innocuous of settings. As pastors and ministers and YouTubers strive to gain and keep members and followers, John the Baptist is glad to give up his disciples so they can run
Long ago, the Jews made a bronze serpent *at Yahweh's command*! God was foreshadowing something great, and the Israelites still managed to make something bad out of it. In today's episode on John 3:11-21, we'll talk about this link between Old
You might have sang a song in Sunday School that said "I stand alone on the word of God, the B-I-B-L-E!" Is this a great way to think about the Christian faith though? Certainly many of the people in my generation who also grew up singing that
Reflections and recap of the 10 days I spent in Iquitos, Peru this November, getting to know Iglesia Genesis and helping with a few of their projects as part of a GoServ Global team. God did some neat work in and through our team, and here's m
We're back in John after an extended break, and once again we'll discover some truth from the Bible alongside some church history and official doctrine. AND, since disagreement with official "orthodox" doctrine makes one technically a "heretic
Everyone loves a good conspiracy story, maybe because it's fascinating to think there could be hidden truth out there just waiting to be discovered. Sometimes the greatest truths are not the ones eternally unseen, but the ones long-forgotten.
Which of your theological convictions are you ABSOLUTELY certain of? Chances are good that someone else in this world is as ABSOLUTELY certain that you're wrong (and that their opposing view is right). This is not to say that there is no truth,
"Everybody" knows that there isn't a pantheon of gods gallivanting around the universe, right? Such an idea is in contrast with the major monotheistic religions of the world (and most importantly, Christianity). But when the Jews said "hear O I
