    Bonhoeffer's Complicated Legacy
    Dec 2 2024
    You asked for it, you got it. I went to see the Bonhoeffer film over the weekend. So I thought I'd share a few thoughts about Bonhoeffer's theology and the recent film.

  • Navigating the Maze of Bible Translations

    Navigating the Maze of Bible Translations
    Nov 11 2024
    One of the most common questions I get from new Christians or Christians who are returning to the Faith is about Bible translations. Many people are confused about why there are so many and what are the differences between them. In this teaching, I present a very basic overview of the major issues. Toward the end, I share some things to look for in a good study Bible.

    Practical Ideas to Advocate for Justice | 11/2/24 | #193
    Nov 2 2024
    Recently, our friend Natasha Crain sent us a text message asking us for practical ideas for biblically-based justice ministries, besides opening a food pantry. We quickly bombarded her with an avalanche of ideas. We thought it would be fun to turn this text string into a podcast. Let's put on our sanctified imagination and think about some ways that Christians can speak prophetically and help to push back the darkness and bring in the light of the Gospel.

  • 4 Key Principles of God's Justice

    4 Key Principles of God's Justice
    Oct 28 2024
    Discussions about justice have become very confusing. On one side, some Christians think justice is simply a cover story for Marxism. Others want to fly all kinds of progressive policies under the banner of justice. In this teaching, I outline four critical standards of biblical justice, along with three practical examples of how to live it out in your everyday life.

  • Starting Christian College, Leaving in Spiritual Deconstruction?

    Starting Christian College, Leaving in Spiritual Deconstruction?
    Oct 16 2024
    How can a Christian go to a Christian college or seminary... and end up actually leaving the faith? There is a sort of an elephant in the room when Christians go to look into seminaries: there are a lot of identity politics and cultural ideologies that are unbiblical. I recently talked with Melissa Dougherty about this phenomenon, what to look out for, and what to do about it.
