Resurrection expert Dr. Gary Habermas returns to discuss Volume 3 of his magnum opus, 'On the Resurrection: Scholarly Perspectives', which includes 500+ scholarly treatments related to the resurrection. From far-left critics to conservative theologians, this collective volume provides a strong overview of everything that has ever been written about the resurrection and includes over 8,000 footnotes!During their conversation, Frank and Gary answer questions like:Why do critical scholars deny miracles but still affirm that Jesus was a miracle worker?Why does Gary think many atheists don't want to say "I do" to Jesus?Is biblical inerrancy a requirement for the Gospel and what about apparent Bible contradictions?What are the 3 things you need in order for Christianity to be true?How do you respond to those who say the deity of God evolved over time?What do creeds teach us about high Christology and how did it get started?What's the best explanation for the rapid growth of early Christianity?If you're looking for the most comprehensive survey of scholarship for and against the resurrection, this is it! Whether you're a skeptic, seeker, or committed believer, this discussion offers rich insight and a reason to take the resurrection seriously. As Gary would say, "It's a bold argument to say that Jesus rose from the dead, but try to get out of it!"Resources mentioned during the episode:PODCAST: Did Jesus REALLY Rise From the Dead? - https://bit.ly/3VnrtiDOn the Resurrection: Evidences (Vol.1) - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1087778603On the Resurrection: Refutations (Vol.2) - https://a.co/d/48jozEvOn the Resurrection: Scholarly Perspectives (Vol.3) - https://www.amazon.com/dp/1087778646Gary's website - https://www.garyhabermas.com/

There are times when we suffer because we sin and experience the natural consequences. But other times, we suffer because of Christ.In today's episode, we continue our sermon series from the archives, Elect Exiles, from 1 Peter. In this message, Paul looks at three profound principles about suffering.To hear more sermons from Paul, visit PaulTripp.com/Sermons.
One of the main tenets of Christianity is Jesus' divinity - most denominations hold him to be fully divine (and also fully mortal, but what's a whole other conversation). History is littered with humans who claimed to be gods - think Egyptian kings, for example. Is this something that applies also to Jesus? Was he walking around, telling people that he was, in fact, god? Today, Dr. Bart Ehrman joins me to talk about the line between divine and mortal in the ancient world, and to examine Jesus' self-presentation within the gospels.

In the sixth episode of "The Fundamentals of Prayer," Duane Sheriff teaches that effective prayer is rooted in knowing and praying according to God's will revealed in His Word and promises. 1 John 5:14-15 teaches that when we pray according to God's will, we can be confident He hears us and grants our petitions. Jesus' prayer in Gethsemane is an example of praying God's will, even in a difficult circumstance. By aligning our prayers with His promises, we can approach the throne of grace with boldness and expectation. https://pastorduane.com/fundamentals-of-prayer/
Is church just a weekend event or something far more meaningful? In this compelling episode, Stephen Davey answers the pressing question: Why should we belong to the church? Drawing from 1 Corinthians 12 and other passages, this episode offers five compelling reasons that expose the dangers of radical individualism and explain the biblical purpose of the local church. You'll learn why true belonging means joining the church as a family, resisting cultural self-centeredness, and owning—not just observing—your role in the body of Christ. Stephen also addresses common myths: “My Bible study is my church,” or “I can worship God in nature.” While those may be good spiritual disciplines, they are not a substitute for the structure, accountability, leadership, and mission of a local church. This message challenges cultural and congregational Christianity, calling listeners to live out convictional Christianity—committed to God's Word, God's people, and God's mission. If you've ever wondered whether church membership matters, this episode gives you the biblical reasons why it does.

Originally Released Dec. 5, 2023When an athlete trains and practices in his or her sport, they are achieving multiple goals at the same time. They get stronger by lifting weights. They get more agile and increase endurance by running and doing sprints. They develop muscle memory by practicing their sport and certain moves over and over and over again. All of this is in pursuit of being ready for the competition – ready for game day. As Christians, we have our own exercises – we call them spiritual practices. We grow stronger in our faith through reading Scripture. We grow more agile and increase endurance through fasting and silence and solitude. We develop muscle memory through gratitude. Today's episode is all about spiritual practices. Host Jason Wieland is joined today by Reward Sibanda. Reward and Jason go in-depth on what spiritual practices are, what they do to and for you, and why it's important to make spiritual practices a part of your life.

We're continuing our series on the films of David Lynch this week with what is arguably his most unusual entry: THE STRAIGHT STORY. Lynch had built a reputation on bizarre works like Eraserhead and Lost Highway. His films were often filled with graphic sex and violence as in Blue Velvet, Twin Peaks: Fire Walk with Me, or even Wild at Heart. So, when his gentle, elegant, G-rated Disney film was released, it turned more than a few heads and earned him some of the most broadly universal acclaim of his career.The Straight Story tells of Alvin Straight, an elderly and ailing man who learns that his brother has suffered a stroke. Unable to drive a car, he determines to set out on a nearly 400-mile journey to visit his brother on a riding lawnmower, embarking upon an episodic journey filled with interesting characters and beautiful landscapes. It is a remarkably spiritual journey of potent wisdom and uncommon grace, offered up with a degree of humanity that perhaps could have only been expressed by the late David Lynch.We're joined by Andrew Nelson and Matt Murray to discuss the film's finer details as well as debate the wisdom of Alvin Straight's quest and explore just how far we might go in order to put things right. It's a thoughtful, funny, and vulnerable conversation that we really hope you'll enjoy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Full Text of ReadingsSolemnity of the Nativity of Saint John the Baptist Lectionary: 586, 587The Saint of the day is Nativity of Saint John the BaptistSaint John the Baptist's Story Jesus called John the greatest of all those who had preceded him: “I tell you, among those born of women, no one is greater than John….” But John would have agreed completely with what Jesus added: “[Y]et the least in the kingdom of God is greater than he” (Luke 7:28). John spent his time in the desert, an ascetic. He began to announce the coming of the Kingdom, and to call everyone to a fundamental reformation of life. His purpose was to prepare the way for Jesus. His baptism, he said, was for repentance. But one would come who would baptize with the Holy Spirit and fire. John was not worthy even to untie his sandals. His attitude toward Jesus was: “He must increase; I must decrease” (John 3:30). John was humbled to find among the crowd of sinners who came to be baptized the one whom he already knew to be the Messiah. “I need to be baptized by you” (Matthew 3:14b). But Jesus insisted, “Allow it now, for thus it is fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness” (Matthew 3:15b). Jesus, true and humble human as well as eternal God, was eager to do what was required of any good Jew. Jesus thus publicly entered the community of those awaiting the Messiah. But making himself part of that community, he made it truly messianic. The greatness of John, his pivotal place in the history of salvation, is seen in the great emphasis Luke gives to the announcement of his birth and the event itself—both made prominently parallel to the same occurrences in the life of Jesus. John attracted countless people to the banks of the Jordan, and it occurred to some people that he might be the Messiah. But he constantly deferred to Jesus, even to sending away some of his followers to become the first disciples of Jesus. Perhaps John's idea of the coming of the Kingdom of God was not being perfectly fulfilled in the public ministry of Jesus. For whatever reason, when he was in prison he sent his disciples to ask Jesus if he was the Messiah. Jesus' answer showed that the Messiah was to be a figure like that of the Suffering Servant in Isaiah. John himself would share in the pattern of messianic suffering, losing his life to the revenge of Herodias. Reflection John challenges us Christians to the fundamental attitude of Christianity—total dependence on the Father, in Christ. Except for the Mother of God, no one had a higher function in the unfolding of salvation. Yet the least in the kingdom, Jesus said, is greater than he, for the pure gift that the Father gives. The attractiveness as well as the austerity of John, his fierce courage in denouncing evil—all stem from his fundamental and total placing of his life within the will of God.

Christianity is an intellectual faith, and the Lord wants us to use our minds. We see that in passages that say “Think on these things” or “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.” But how do you know if you've made an idol out of knowledge?You might find yourself critiquing and correcting more than you build others up. Knowledge can be an idol when it's solely for you and not used for the edification of the Body of Christ. In this episode, the Perrys discuss why it's important that we pray for wisdom more than we seek after knowledge, and that we're faithful with what we do know by actually applying it to our lives.Scripture references:Matthew 22:29-32John 9:35-41Colossians 2:16-23 This Episode is Sponsored By:https://www.covenanteyes.com — Get Victory by Covenant Eyes FREE for 30 days with promo code PERRYS Subscribe to the Perrys' newsletter.To support the work of the Perrys, donate via PayPal.www.withtheperrys.comboldapparel.shopwww.jackiehillperry.comwww.preston-perry.com

In this episode, we speak with therapist Joy Brooks about spiritual bypassing—how well-meaning spiritual beliefs and practices can sometimes mask or avoid the difficult emotions and wounds we all carry. Drawing on psychology, contemplative traditions, and Joy's own journey out of charismatic Christianity, the conversation uncovers why confronting pain honestly is essential for genuine growth. Joy reflects on how communities and individuals alike can unintentionally use faith to silence, dismiss, or rush past suffering—and the emotional costs this often brings. She also explores how the Christian tradition holds resources for facing the “messiness” of being human, embracing vulnerability, and resisting the temptation to perform a polished, “all-good” spirituality. Following the interview, Nomad hosts Tim Nash and Nick Thorley reflect on their own experiences with spiritual bypassing and the importance of creating safe spaces where questioning and emotional honesty are welcomed rather than shunned.

In the fifth episode of "The Fundamentals of Prayer," Duane Sheriff explores the power of persistence in prayer. In Luke 11:5-13, Jesus emphasizes that God values our persistence to show our faith and desire for a relationship with Him. Repeating our prayers helps us remain engaged with God and reflects our faith, even when the answer is delayed. This persistence helps us shift from doubt to confidence in God's willingness to respond to our needs.https://pastorduane.com/fundamentals-of-prayer/
Is church just a weekend event or something far more meaningful? In this compelling episode, Stephen Davey answers the pressing question: Why should we belong to the church? Drawing from 1 Corinthians 12 and other passages, this episode offers five compelling reasons that expose the dangers of radical individualism and explain the biblical purpose of the local church. You'll learn why true belonging means joining the church as a family, resisting cultural self-centeredness, and owning—not just observing—your role in the body of Christ. Stephen also addresses common myths: “My Bible study is my church,” or “I can worship God in nature.” While those may be good spiritual disciplines, they are not a substitute for the structure, accountability, leadership, and mission of a local church. This message challenges cultural and congregational Christianity, calling listeners to live out convictional Christianity—committed to God's Word, God's people, and God's mission. If you've ever wondered whether church membership matters, this episode gives you the biblical reasons why it does.

Sanctuary is an ancient idea of a place of refuge or freedom from harm. It has deep roots in the history, literature and myths of many cultures. Marina Warner's new book Sanctuary explores travelling tales and concepts of hospitality and home - suggesting that myths, stories and works of art can be places of sanctuary too. The story of leprosy is a story of isolation and exclusion over thousands of years. In his book, Outcast, Oliver Basciano has written about his journey across the hinterlands of the world to demystify the lives of those who have been ostracised. He argues that the image we still hold onto of medieval leprosy is a nineteenth-century myth invented to justify the gross mistreatment of patients in the name of colonial, religious and economic exploitation. Churches are a spiritual home for some 200 million Christians worldwide, but they often hold a fascination and interest for the most committed atheist. A church is a place of sanctuary, but also a place where the drama of life is played out. Fergus Butler-Gallie is an Anglican priest and his new book Twelve Churches explores the history of Christianity through the places worshippers have built.
