Colossians tells us that all things were made through Christ and for Christ. John tells us that all things came into being through the Word who was and is God incarnate, the second Person of the Trinity, our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Through what God has made, Romans 1 tells us, the whole world knows something of God's invisible attributes - His "eternal power and divine nature," for example. But critics of Christianity deny that Jesus is God in the flesh. How can we as Christians be better equipped to respond to the critics of the incarnate Christ? This week we continue our discussion with Dr. Rob Bowman, Jr.,, president of the Institute for Religious Research about his new book The Incarnate Christ and His Critics.  Rob will give us more insights from his "HANDS" acronym  about how we can known Jesus is both Lord and God and how we can give an intelligent defense of what the Bible says of Jesus to non-Christians. Dr. Rob Bowman Jr.,  is an evangelical Christian apologist, biblical scholar, author, editor, and lecturer. He has lectured on biblical studies, religion, and apologetics at Biola University, Cornerstone University, and New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Rob is the author of over sixty articles and the author or co-author of fifteen books including Jesus' Resurrection and Joseph's Visions: Examining the Foundations of Christianity and Mormonism, Putting Jesus in His Place: The Case for the Deity of Christ, co-authored with J. Ed Komoszewski, and Faith Has Its Reasons: Integrative Approaches to Defending the Christian Faith, co-authored with Kenneth D. Boa. Dr. Bowman holds the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in biblical studies from Fuller Theological Seminary and South African Theological Seminary. He is widely regarded as the leading evangelical scholar addressing the uses and interpretations of the Bible by such religious groups as Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormons.Related Links: FREE Four-Page Profile Articles from Watchman Fellowship!

2025-04-20 Things Jesus Saidby Pastor Chris BergScripture Reference: John 20:11-2920 When he had said this, he showed them his hands and his side. Then the disciples rejoiced when they saw the Lord. 21 So Jesus said to them again, “Peace be with you. Just as the Father has sent me, I also send you.” 22 And after he said this, he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. 23 If you forgive anyone's sins, they are forgiven; if you retain anyone's sins, they are retained.”24 Now Thomas (called Didymus), one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 The other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord!” But he replied, “Unless I see the wounds from the nails in his hands, and put my finger into the wounds from the nails, and put my hand into his side, I will never believe it!”26 Eight days later the disciples were again together in the house, and Thomas was with them. Although the doors were locked, Jesus came and stood among them and said, “Peace be with you!” 27 Then he said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and examine my hands. Extend your hand and put it into my side. Do not continue in your unbelief, but believe.” 28 Thomas replied to him, “My Lord and my God!” 29 Jesus said to him, “Have you believed because you have seen me? Blessed are the people who have not seen and yet have believed.”

Discipleship is simple obedience in the ordinary. In this episode of Salty Believer Unscripted, Bryan Catherman and Josiah Walker return to the basics, reminding us that discipleship often looks like a consistent, faithful presence in the church's life. They unpack the simplicity and weight of just showing up, investing in relationships, and grounding your walk in the local body of Christ. The key is to have a plan. A simple plan and a complicated plan are still plans. Either way, you need one. Copyright 2025. For more information, please visit SaltyBeliever.com.

The Renaissance of Academic ApologeticsOver the past 40 years, we’ve witnessed a remarkable resurgence in academic apologetics. Influential philosophers like Alvin Plantinga and William Lane Craig have made significant strides in defending Christian theism through rigorous analytical philosophy. This renaissance is not just about arguments; it’s about training the next generation of apologists. Institutions like the Society for Christian Philosophers and various seminaries are equipping students with the tools they need to engage thoughtfully with contemporary challenges to the faith. Cultural Apologetics: A New ApproachTraditional apologetics has focused on arguments for and against Christianity, but we must also consider the cultural landscape. Cultural apologetics seeks to establish a Christian voice within society, addressing the moral and intellectual climate that often hinders people from considering the Christian message. As Paul Hume articulates, it’s about making Christianity not just true but also satisfying. This approach is essential for reaching a generation that is increasingly skeptical and disengaged. The Role of Apologetics in Spiritual FormationApologetics should not be an isolated discipline; it must be integrated into the fabric of Christian life. Families, churches, and educational institutions should prioritize teaching apologetics as part of spiritual formation and evangelism. This means actively engaging with opposing worldviews and fostering a culture of inquiry and defense of the faith. By doing so, we prepare ourselves and our communities to articulate the hope we have in Christ. As we navigate the complexities of our world, it’s crucial to remember that the future of apologetics is ultimately in God’s hands. We are called to work diligently and smartly, making the case for our faith compellingly and lovingly. Douglas Groothuis, Ph.D., is Distinguished University Research Professor of Apologetics and Christian Worldview at Cornerstone University and the author of twenty books, including Beyond the Wager: The Christian Brilliance of Blaise Pascal (InterVarsity, 2024).
