Podcasts about Dallas Theological Seminary

Friend, have you ever experienced a season where everything you thought was secure suddenly fell apart?This week on the Anchored by the Sword Podcast, I sit down with Bible teacher, author, speaker, and teaching pastor Alli Patterson to talk about freedom, failure, redemption, and learning to build our lives on the only foundation that truly lasts.Alli shares her powerful personal story of coming to faith as a teenager, drifting away from the Lord during college and early adulthood, and eventually walking through a devastating season of brokenness that nearly destroyed her marriage. Through that painful experience, she encountered the kindness, forgiveness, and presence of Jesus in a way she had never known before.What I love about Alli's story is that it reminds us that God is not afraid of our mess. He is a God of redemption, restoration, and second chances.We also dive into her newest Bible study, Spirit-Led Bible Study: Six Practices to Bring the Bible to Life, where Alli teaches practical ways to approach Scripture that move beyond simply reading words on a page and into genuinely encountering God through His Word.One of my favorite moments from this conversation was Alli's reminder that hearing God's Word is only part of the equation.Jesus didn't simply call us to listen.He called us to build.The storms of life reveal what our foundation is made of, and true freedom comes when we choose to build our lives on Christ instead of success, comfort, achievement, or our own plans.Whether you've struggled with failure, finding your footing after difficult seasons, or feeling intimidated by studying the Bible, this conversation will encourage you to take the next step toward Jesus and trust Him to rebuild what feels broken.Bio:Alli Patterson is a teacher, author, wife and mom of four out of Cincinnati, Ohio. She currently serves as a Teaching Pastor at Crossroads Church on the national teaching team. Alli is the leader of Woman Camp and founder of the Ignite Conference out of her passion for equipping women in the Kingdom of God.As a lifetime learner and lover of scripture with a seminary degree from Dallas Theological Seminary, Alli loves to create ways for others to know and love Jesus through his Word. She has created a fresh approach to Bible study in the release of Spirit-Led Bible Study, coming February 2026. She has written two books, How to Stay Standing and Blueprint for Belonging- both providing practical help translating Biblical principles into real life. Alli speaks at events and conferences and enjoys podcasting. She is a runner and die-hard Buckeye football fan who loves Mexican food almost as much as her bratty calico cat.Anchor Verses:Luke 6:47-49Luke 6:45Connect with Alli:Website: https://www.allipatterson.comIG: https://www.instagram.com/theallipattersonLinktree: https://linktr.ee/theallipattersonAbout Spirit-Led Bible StudyIn Spirit-Led Bible Study: Six Practices to Bring the Bible to Life, Alli teaches practical and approachable ways to engage Scripture, helping readers move beyond simply reading the Bible to truly interacting with God through His Word.The study introduces six practices designed to help believers observe, interpret, pray through, and apply Scripture while allowing the Holy Spirit to guide the process.***We love hearing from you!

[From June 10, 2025] Mary welcomes back Olivier Melnick to discuss the new normal: antisemitism. He is a Jewish believer in Jesus from France, the son of Holocaust survivors, whose maternal grandfather was killed by the Nazis. Olivier is an internationally known speaker on antisemitism. He holds a BA from Moody Bible Institute and a masters from Dallas Theological Seminary, and has been equipping believers to understand and fight antisemitism since 2000. The ramping up of antisemitism is a complete surprise to some, it’s not that long ago that they were the target of genocide during WW2, and if anyone alive has a parent who fought in that war, the connection is still strong. So why now? How are things different? Today we talk about the stages of normalization from his book, “The Normalization of Antisemitism”. World leaders are not so subtly being drawn into this hate as the world turns their back on Israel. Words matter. Words turn to violence. Even our neighbor to the north is being drawn in. Israel can do nothing right, so they might as well do what they are going to do to stave off the end of the west through violence, immigration, and Islam.   Stand Up For The Truth Videos: https://rumble.com/user/CTRNOnline & https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgQQSvKiMcglId7oGc5c46A

In part two of this conversation on GLP-1 receptor agonists, Dr. Mike Chupp is joined by Dr. Kymberli Cook, a systematic theologian, Assistant Director of the Hendricks Center, and adjunct professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, to explore the deeper theological and ethical dimensions of these medications. Dr. Cook specializes in theological anthropology, the study of what it means to be human in relation to God, and brings that lens to bear on some of medicine’s most pressing questions: Are our creaturely limits something to overcome or embrace? Where does therapy end and enhancement begin? And how should Christian healthcare professionals faithfully navigate the medical and technological advancements that increasingly shape our bodies, our limitations, and our health? This episode invites you to move beyond the clinical conversation and consider what it means to be a faithful steward of the bodies God has given us.

Scripture: Genesis 18; Exodus 3; Daniel 3 and 10; Isaiah 6 Christ actually appeared to various individuals in various forms before He was born in Bethlehem.

In this episode we talk with our most frequent guest, Dr. Ronn Johnson. We discuss how the ancient and early church spoke on, dealt with, and developed the idea of Trinitarian doctrine.Dr. Ronn Johnson has a Ph.D. in Bible Exposition from Dallas Theological Seminary. His dissertation on the created gods of the Old Testament (“The Old Testament Background for Paul's Principalities and Powers”) provided him the opportunity to research the divine council worldview of the Hebrew Bible and apply it to New Testament exegesis. Ronn has taught Bible and theology courses at the college level for over 20 years, has pastored two churches in the Minneapolis area for fifteen years. He is also a sitting board member at the Dr. Michael S. Heiser Foundation and is also the Biblical Scholar for the Divine Council Worldview Podcast.Dr. Ronn has been known to ruffle a few evangelical feathers. He consistently urges Christians to remember and consider the ancient worldview of the Scriptures. He emphasizes that it does not always align with modern Western ideas that have been handed down through tradition, denominational creeds, or church statements. This is why we love and listen to him.Check out Dr. Ronn on the Divine Council Worldview Podcasthttps://open.spotify.com/show/4UdkIcEWNTw9EoniNWSa4eConnect with us:Social: Instagram.com/behindthecurtainpcYoutube.com/btcmysteriesTikTok.com/btcmysteriesEmail: behindthecurtainpc@gmail.comMusic in this episode: Opening & Closing track"80's Synth" By AlexHulgin

The UFO phenomenon has escaped the fringes and entered the mainstream. But what if “disclosure” isn't about extraterrestrials at all? Author and filmmaker Derrick Warfel joins Richard to explore the unsettling possibility that UFOs, alien contact, occult spirituality, AI, and modern consciousness movements are all connected to something far older — and far darker. Guest: Derrick Warfel is an author, filmmaker, and theologian whose work explores the intersection of UFO phenomena, occult spirituality, media influence, and supernatural belief systems. Educated at Princeton University, Dallas Theological Seminary, and University of Southern California, Warfel examines how modern UFO culture may represent not extraterrestrial contact, but an ancient intelligence adapting itself to every age. His book, UFOs and God, challenges conventional explanations of the phenomenon and investigates the hidden spiritual currents beneath modern disclosure culture.

After a few weeks off, we're finally back behind the microphones and there's plenty to catch up on.Tim can officially talk about Lakeview hiring a new associate pastor, including what the search process was like and the surprisingly difficult reality of calling candidates to tell them they finished second. Pastoral ministry apparently now includes HR, recruiting, and emotionally complicated phone calls.Andrew spent last weekend in Dallas for his second graduation from Dallas Theological Seminary and, unlike the first time, he actually showed up for this one. Growth. Maturity. Airfare.Meanwhile, Tim's ordination is only a month away, and he's beginning to question why Andrew is asking such deeply personal theological and ministry questions. Somewhere between “describe your prayer life” and “what books are you reading,” the process started feeling less like ordination prep and more like a pastoral FBI interview.Last night, both guys participated in their friend Adam Powers' D.Min graduation celebration, which somehow turned into the launch of an entirely new competition: figuring out who is actually the funniest pastor in the friend group. Results remain disputed.It's a catch-up episode full of hiring updates, seminary milestones, ordination prep, and middle-aged men trying very hard to out-joke each other.

Born in China and a computer engineer by training, Luke Cheng talks about his ministry with the Far East Broadcasting Company of using technology to reach people for Christ. (click for more...)Website:  www.FEBC.org/ChinaLuke Cheng is the Executive Director of Chinese Ministries at the Far East Broadcasting Company (FEBC). Born in a small village in China as the youngest of six children, he grew up with no exposure to Christianity and dreamed of becoming a scientist. His faith journey began when he moved to Canada for graduate school and was invited to a Chinese student Bible study group — the first time he had ever met Christians.After becoming a believer, Luke prayed fervently for his family's salvation. Over the years, his sister, mother, and father all came to faith — his father just days before passing away, and his mother during a three-month visit to the United States.Luke met his wife Joy at that same Bible study group, where she was a seminary student leading the sessions. Both eventually studied at Dallas Theological Seminary, Joy for a Doctor of Ministry and Luke for a theology degree, after he spent nearly 10 years working as a software engineer at Microsoft and Amazon.Although Luke described himself as an introvert who feared public speaking and doubted how God could use him in ministry, he had made a private commitment to full-time ministry early in his Christian life — promising God that if his parents were saved, he would serve however called. That calling took about a decade to fully materialize before he left his tech career for FEBC.At FEBC, Luke sees technology as central to the mission. FEBC was founded in 1945 to reach Chinese people through radio, but has since shifted to internet, social media, and mobile platforms. He has embraced AI as a powerful new ministry tool — using it for content conversion, chatbot development, and app creation — and is now pursuing a second PhD at Cambridge University to explore the theological and ethical dimensions of AI in ministry.                                           NEXT WEEK:  Dr. Bill Thrasher Send your support for FIRST PERSON to the Far East Broadcasting Company:FEBC National Processing Center Far East Broadcasting CompanyP.O.

In this interview, we discuss his latest book “The Persian Storm”, how the current war in Iran is fitting into Biblical prophecy, why he thinks the Rapture will take place soon and how it will work, the countries that will be involved in the wars during the End Times, why he thinks the United States and China are not named explicitly in end times prophecies, why we are seeing an increase in Anti-Semitism coming from the Left and the Right, if he thinks God intervened to save Donald Trump from an assassin's bullet so that he could be involved in the war against Iran, whether or not Christians should be rooting for the US/Israel military alliance, how we should view the people of Iran vs. the governing authorities of Iran, how the Iranian Shiite regime's belief in the “Twelfth Imam” affects how they approach warfare and terrorism, how Christians should act in light of Biblical prophecy and much more.

Dr. Sandra Glahn What does ancient Christian art created in a culture of orality reveal about women in the early church? Dr. Sandra Glahn of Dallas Seminary joins Sharifa Stevens of Beyond Ordinary Women in this conversation about the visual record of women in the early church. In a time when many people were illiterate, the church used visual images to teach the people and honor those who were heroes of the faith. By studying the art of the Byzantine Era, we are able to learn more about the church of that day. The Visual Museum of Women in Christianity has created a place for us to see many of these images today and provide free access to downloadable pictures of these pieces of art. You will find this conversation both educational and a delight as you hear the amazing stories of prominent women in the early church.

I am your host for today, Sharifa Stevens, and I would like to introduce you to someone whom I admire. Dr. Sandra Glahn is a journalist and also the author, coauthor or editor of more than 20 books. She serves as Professor of Media Arts and Worship at Dallas Theological Seminary. You can discover more about Dr. Glahn on our website, BeyondOrdinaryWomen.org. Dr. Glahn's most recent endeavor is the Visual Museum of Women in Christianity which we're going to learn more about today. Welcome, Dr. Glahn. Dr. Glahn >> Thank you so much. What a pleasure to see you. Sharifa >> Well, it's a pleasure to see you always. I wanted to just jump in to questions about the Visual Museum of Women in Christianity because I'm a newbie to this subject, and I'm sure there would be plenty of people in the audience who are intrigued and want to know more. So let's get started. Dr. Glahn >> Let's do it. Sharifa >> How would you describe the museum to someone encountering it for the first time? Dr. Glahn >> It's a place to get free high quality photos of women and the history of the church, particularly the early church and Byzantine eras. Maybe in 4.0 we'll be looking at every century of the church, but really it's focused much more on women in the early church. And it's a resource with free downloads where you don't have to ask permission. You don't have to say where you got it. Everything is a work for hire with photographers so that women are much more easy, much more easily accessed if you want to include visuals with a presentation. What we found, well, there's probably more than you need it just for a short explanation, but Sharifa >> no. Dr. Glahn >> we found that when we were looking to add women to PowerPoints and talks and people were looking for them for sermons, they're hidden behind paywalls. The art was paywalled or it was clipart. So it was one extreme or the other, the really high quality stuff. You know, it was illegal. If it was if it was even there. And so this is an effort to make it super accessible. Sharifa >> When you say early church, just for those of us who might not have a clear timeline of the Byzantine era, what are the years that we're talking about? Dr. Glahn >> So early church, of course,

Stephanie Rousselle hosts Dr. Mikel Del Rosario, professor at moody Bible Institute in Chicago, and expert in Christian apologetics. The conversation centers on how we can answer the question of whether Jesus clearly claimed to be God, especially when it is asked by skeptics or by Christians seeking a deeper, confident faith.Correctly understanding Jesus as fully God and fully man is foundational to Christian faith—if he's not divine, he can't forgive sins or save. The resurrection, backed by historical evidence, cements the truth of his claims.One common question is, “Why didn't Jesus plainly say, ‘I am God'?” Mikel Del Rosario explains that Jesus' audience was steeped in Jewish theology, where claiming to be God could easily be misunderstood as claiming to be God the Father or as a rival deity. Instead, Jesus reveals his identity incrementally—and profoundly—using language and concepts (like “Son of Man” and allusions to Daniel 7 and Psalm 110) his contemporaries would eventually understand.A major stumbling block for many is the problem of evil—if God exists, why is there suffering? Mikel Del Rosario encourages compassionate, courageous responses, recognizing that both emotional and intellectual issues are at play. Importantly, he frames Christian hope as a guarantee rooted in the reality of Jesus' resurrection—something unique to Christianity.Some people genuinely don't understand how God could allow evil, while others flatly reject God's existence because of evil. Mikel Del Rosario explains the importance of discerning which type of questioner you are engaging. For seekers, gently showing how Christianity makes sense of evil is key; for rejectors, it's valuable to ask how they reached their conclusions and what evidence supports their claim.Anyone making a truth claim—atheist or Christian—shares the burden of proof. For example, if someone claims “Jesus never said he was God,” it's appropriate (and helpful!) to clarify what they mean and what specific evidence or misunderstandings might be at play.In Mark 2, Jesus forgives a paralyzed man's sins. This act isn't just compassion—it's a claim to divine authority. No Jewish priest, prophet, or miracle worker ever forgave sins as Jesus did. The religious leaders recognize this as a claim only God can rightly make.In Mark 14, before the high priest, Jesus refers to himself as the “Son of Man” seated at the right hand of God and coming on the clouds—directly combining messianic and divine imagery from Jewish scriptures. This is why the blasphemy charge is leveled, leading to his crucifixion.Whether engaging skeptics, seekers, or fellow believers, Mikel Del Rosario urges us to listen first—distinguishing between theological, historical, or literary misunderstandings. Rather than just insisting, “The Bible says so,” we should explain how Jesus' words and deeds in context are unique and credible claims to divinity.Honest questioning, careful listening, and deep understanding of historical and cultural context equip us to both strengthen our faith and share it wisely with others. Jesus' claims are profound and unique—and the hope he offers is certain, not wishful thinking. Jesus is fully God and fully man. He died for our sins, and rose again. This is the central truth of our faith, and it is solidly established through historical research.MORE ABOUT DR. MIKEL DEL ROSARIODr. Mikel Del Rosario helps Christians find clear answers to tough questions about Christianity and explain their faith with courage and compassion. He is a Professor of Bible and Theology at Moody Bible Institute and the author of Did Jesus Really Say He Was God? Making Sense of His Historical Claims.

Maybe you've heard people say, "Jesus never said he was God," or you've been asked, "Why believe Jesus is divine if he never claimed it?" These challenges aren't just from non-Christians―they show up in church, too. Even if you're not coming from a place of skepticism, you might still question how well church teachings about Jesus match up with what he actually said. So, did the historical Jesus really claim to be divine?This book is here to give you confidence in the historicity of Jesus' claim to divinity. It's designed to help you explain your faith in a world that increasingly doubts the Bible's portrayal of Jesus. Instead of focusing on what Jesus' followers believed, this book takes a different approach―it looks at what Jesus' enemies thought. How did they interpret his words and actions? Their perspective can help you understand the historical validity of Jesus' divine claim.In this book, biblical scholar Mikel Del Rosariouses historiography to examine claims about Jesus' divinity,analyzes ancient Greco-Roman, Jewish, and biblical sources to understand how Jesus' words and actions were interpreted by his adversaries and followers, andargues that Jesus claimed divine authority, a claim supported by strong historical evidence.If you're a Christian, this book will equip you to defend your faith against theories that suggest Jesus only claimed human authority, not divine. If you're someone who sees Christianity differently, this book offers a serious investigation into the claims of the historical Jesus, providing evidence that any theory of his identity must address. Whether you're searching for answers to your own questions or trying to share about Jesus with others, this book will help you communicate Jesus' divine claim with clarity and confidence.We invite you to check out the first episode of each of our series, and decide which one you will want to start with.Go to gospelspice.com for more, and go especially to gospelspice.com/podcast to enjoy our guests!
