What happens when a poet and a theologian decide to write letters to each other about faith? In this episode, I sit down with Christian Wiman and Miroslav Volf to discuss their book Glimmerings and talk about the language we use for God and why it so often falls short, the tension between God's presence and absence, what the Book of Job has to say about suffering, and whether faith can survive, even deepen, without easy answers. It's a conversation about holding paradox, paying attention, and what it looks like to keep believing in the middle of real life.Miroslav Volf is the Henry B. Wright Professor of Theology at Yale Divinity School and the founding director of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture. His books include Exclusion & Embrace: A Theological Exploration of Identity, Otherness, and Reconciliation, winner of the 2002 Grawemeyer Award in Religion.

Forgiveness is at the core of the Christian Faith, and because of this we cannot begin the journey of Great Lent - in growing closer to Christ through prayer, fasting and almsgiving - which begins with seeking and granted forgiveness.Then it can be a "Clean Monday" (this is what the first day of Great Lent is called) for all who follow this format of forgivness!Listen...

Why Love Is the Foundation of the Christian Faith | Biblical Truth Every Believer Must Know Part 2 Episode 390 In Part 2 of this foundational teaching, Stephen Lewis moves from understanding what biblical love is to confronting how it must be lived out. Love is not just a belief we hold—it is the evidence of a transformed life. If God truly is love, then that love should be visible in how we speak, forgive, serve, endure, and respond—especially when it's difficult. This episode challenges believers to examine whether their faith is producing Christlike love in real, everyday situations. Stephen unpacks how genuine love is revealed through obedience, humility, sacrifice, and truth, reminding listeners that love is not passive, emotional, or conditional—it is active, costly, and rooted in obedience to Jesus. Using Scriptures such as 1 Corinthians 13, John 13:34–35, 1 John 3:16–18, and James 2:17, this message emphasizes that love is the true marker of discipleship. Not gifts. Not titles. Not words—but fruit. This is a call to mature faith, spiritual integrity, and visible Christianity in a watching world. #ChristianLove #BiblicalLove #LoveAsAChristian #ChristianFaith #BibleTeaching #FaithInJesus #JesusChrist #ChristianLiving #BiblicalTruth #Discipleship #ChristianYouTube #ChristianTeaching #GodIsLove #FaithBasedContent #BibleStudy

In this episode of the podcast from the church, Pastor Karl concludes the study of Matthew chapter 9, highlighting Jesus' revelation of His power through a series of remarkable miracles. He explains Matthew's Jewish perspective, portraying Jesus as the promised Messiah and Anointed One, contrasting this with other Gospel accounts. He recaps the structure of Matthew, noting how chapters 8–9 demonstrate Jesus' authority over disease, death, and demonic forces through ten miracles, while also showing the kinds of people who desperately approach Him.The core message centers on true faith: it arises not merely from believing Jesus can help, but from admitting that nothing else can. Pastor Karl unpacks the encounters in Matthew 9:18–34—the synagogue ruler pleading for his deceased daughter, the woman with a 12-year hemorrhage who touches Jesus' garment in faith (possibly connecting to Malachi's prophecy of healing in His "wings" or "corners"), the two blind men calling Him "Son of David" and trusting in His mercy alone, and the deliverance of a mute, demon-possessed man whose condition defied traditional Jewish exorcism methods. Through these stories, he emphasizes that desperate faith, even if imperfect or "weak," directed toward the right Savior—Jesus—releases God's power. Faith often requires a public "touchpoint" of expression, removing unbelieving voices that sound logical but hinder God's work, and ultimately trusting in God's mercy rather than demanding specific outcomes.Pastor Karl closes by applying the passage to the church's present moment, noting the explosive community growth in their area—with thousands of new residents and students arriving soon—as evidence that "the fields are ripe for harvest." Jesus' compassion on the harassed and helpless crowds compels believers to pray for workers and step into the harvest themselves, making this not just a message about miracles but about the church's responsibility to reach those in need with the gospel of the kingdom.Watch all our sermons on our youtube channel "Flipside Christian Church"Join us in person 8:00am, 9:30am & 11:00am every Sunday morning.37193 Ave 12 #3h, Madera, CA 93636For more visit us at flipside.churchFor more podcasts visit flipsidepodcasts.transistor.fm

This week on Sermon Spotlight, host Rose Lauck is joined by Pastor Tim Sanford and Cole McQuaid to reflect on a sermon that stepped slightly outside our journey through the Gospel of Mark — but not really.After studying Mark 12:41–44 (the widow's offering), this episode continues exploring giving — not as a fundraising pitch, but as a lens for discipleship. Why does the topic of money come with so much baggage in the church? What does it mean to give out of grace rather than guilt? And how do we guard our hearts from both stinginess and over-giving?This conversation ultimately points back to grace: following Jesus isn't about earning His favor. It's about trusting Him to grow us — even in the messy, uncomfortable areas of discipleship.Listen to the sermon we're talking about: fbcva.org/current-sermon-series or fbcva.org/podcastsBe a part of the conversation by submitting your thoughts and questions: fbcva.org/sermon-spotlight-podcastWatch this episode and subscribe on YouTube:  @fellowshipbiblechurchvaFind out more about Fellowship Bible Church: fbcva.orgSubscribe to emails from Fellowship: fbcva.org/subscribeEngage with us:Facebook: facebook.com/groups/fellowshipfamInstagram: instagram.com/fellowshipbiblechurch/ #SermonSpotlight #FellowshipBibleChurch #FBCVA #Mark12 #BibleTeaching #ChristianPodcast #FaithInEverydayLife #Discipleship #FollowingJesus

Why does the resurrection matter so much to the Christian faith—and why was it so controversial in the early church? In this episode, Emma Dotter unpacks Acts 4:1-31 by breaking down the three primary religious groups that opposed the early church, including the Sadducees. Then, Emma is joined by Watermark member Bruno Ysla for a thoughtful conversation on the significance of the resurrection.

In a world full of noise, division, and distractions, this episode calls believers back to the heart of the Gospel—God is love, and everything we do as Christians must flow from that truth.

In this thought-provoking presentation, we explore the fascinating world of the Dead Sea Scrolls, focusing on a recent breakthrough that solidifies the case for the Bible's divine inspiration.We delve into the incredible story of their discovery and the initial excitement from top archaeologists. We then examine how traditional dating methods created challenges for scholars, specifically concerning the prophecy in Daniel 11. Now, with the aid of new artificial intelligence technology, a clearer picture has emerged—one that confirms the Book of Daniel was written *before* the events it foretold. This is a powerful, evidence-based affirmation of the Bible's reliability.Join us for this insightful expositional talk that strengthens faith through historical and archaeological evidence.**Chapters:**00:00 - Introduction00:46 - The Discovery of the Scrolls02:43 - Initial Dating and Importance05:44 - Advanced Dating Methods07:53 - The Daniel 11 Prophecy Challenge10:37 - AI and the New Evidence14:15 - The Significance for Our Faith14:43 - Why Scholars Challenge the Bible20:23 - Examples of Archaeology Confirming Scripture24:37 - Practical Lessons for Believers Today27:40 - Dead Sea Scrolls and New Testament Quotations31:48 - Conclusion and Call to Action**Category:**

The early Christian world was awash with the language of 'belief' (pistis in Greek, fides in Latin). But what does it really mean to 'believe'? Today, we often use the word refer to an assent to a set of propositions: someone might believe that Jesus rose from the dead, or that he was born of a virgin. But is this what the language of belief meant to the early Christians, within the wider Roman world?To unpack the lexis of 'belief', Helen and Lloyd take a trip in the Time Machine with Teresa Morgan, McDonald Agape Professor of New Testament and Early Christianity at Yale University. Teresa is the author of Roman Faith and Christian Faith: Pistis and Fides in the Early Roman Empire and Early Churches (OUP, 2015), which suggests that belief is a more relational term than we tend to assume. It refers to a 'loyalty' and 'allegiance', rooted in social practices of trust.SUPPORT BIBLICAL TIME MACHINEIf you enjoy the podcast, please (pretty please!) consider supporting the show through the Time Travellers Club, our Patreon.

Dr. Berry discusses the creation mandate, the impact of sin on humanity's ability to reflect God's glory, and the ultimate restoration of glory through Christ. The conversation culminates in a discussion of the new creation as described in Revelation, where God's glory fills all of creation.Resources:The Earth Will Be Filled: A Biblical Theology of the Glory of God by Donnie BerryDelighting in the Trinity: An Introduction to the Christian Faith by Michael ReevesGod's Glory in Salvation through Judgment: A Biblical Theology by Jim Hamilton

Send us a textGUEST: GREG KOUKL, founder and president, Stand To ReasonScripture says, “sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts, always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence” (1 Peter 3:15).Apologetics is a sophisticated sounding word for something quite simple: providing reasons or making a defense to questions about the Christian faith. Important questions like:What is the evidence that God actually exists?How did the universe come into existence?Is the Bible really the word of God?Do the laws of the Bible apply to all people?How can God be loving and good considering all the suffering and evil in the world?Are you able to provide good answers to these questions? That's what apologetics aims to do, all the while realizing the best evidence won't necessarily convince an unbelieving, unwilling heart and also realizing that God doesn't provide every last answer for any given question. Yes, the Christian life requires faith in what God has revealed but it is a very reasonable faith.Greg Koukl, author and president of Stand To Reason, one of the leading apologetics ministries, joins us this weekend to answer some of the most common objections to the Christian faith. We hope you join us to sharpen and deepen your faith in God and His ways.Books by Greg Koukl on Amazon:TacticsThe Story of Reality

Some of us are hurting so much that living each day is a struggle. Others wake up every morning to the anguish of having lost a loved one to suicide.

Can science actually PROVE God exists? Dr. Antony Latham joins us to explore how the cosmos, consciousness, and the complexity of life all point to divine design—and why the Big Bang might be Christianity's best friend.In this episode of Remnant Radio, Joshua Lewis sits down with retired physician and author Dr. Antony Latham to tackle one of the most critical questions facing believers today: Does science contradict Christian faith, or does it actually confirm it? From his own journey as a teenage skeptic who lost faith studying evolution to becoming a Christian in Kenya and diving deep into biology, consciousness, and cosmology, Antony brings a unique perspective that bridges the gap between the lab and the sanctuary.​What We Discuss:-The Big Bang & Biblical Creation -Fine-Tuning of the Universe-The Cambrian Explosion-Consciousness & the Soul -Moral Law & Objective Beauty -Miracles & an Open Universe Whether you're wrestling with doubts about faith and science, or you're looking for solid apologetic tools to strengthen your biblical worldview, this conversation will equip you with evidence-based answers rooted in both Scripture and scientific discovery. 0:00 - Introduction1:04 - From Skeptic to Scientist to Believer5:13 - Big Bang: Friend or Foe to Christian Faith?9:20 - Fine-Tuning Arguments & Cosmological Evidence12:17 - String Theory & Multiple Universe Objections14:03 - The Exquisite Precision of Universal Constants15:37 - God of the Gaps Argument Addressed17:04 - Origin of Life & Irreducible Complexity19:30 - Old Earth Creation & Genesis Interpretation22:56 - The Cambrian Explosion & Fossil Record28:03 - Reading Genesis 1 Poetically & Theologically31:17 - Consciousness & Evidence for the Immaterial Soul35:17 - Moral Objectivity, Beauty, & Free Will41:02 - Mind-Body Dualism & Christian Worldview43:03 - Taking Back Science for the KingdomABOUT THE GUEST:
