Does the public promotion of Darwin's theory of natural selection match Darwin's own private view of his theory? On this episode of ID the Future out of the archive, historian of science Michael Keas begins a two-part conversation with Robert Shedinger, the Wilford A. Johnson Chair of Biblical Studies and Professor of Religion at Luther College and author most recently of The Mystery of Evolutionary Mechanisms: Darwinian Biology's Grand Narrative of Triumph and the Subversion of Religion. Shedinger reports on the contrast between Darwin's private view of his theory of natural selection and the public view as detailed in his published work. Shedinger also notes the deficiency in evidence for Darwin's proposal, despite claims to the contrary from his followers and evangelizers today. Source

God's people live on mission. We are called to proclaim His name, as instruments in the grand story He is writing. Baptism is just the beginning, and our faith sends us out with purpose to help others follow Jesus. As we disciple others, God shapes us in the process. Join Chad, Jim and Matt as they discuss intentional living, engaging with our neighbors, and embracing our sent purpose with awareness and faithfulness. This is God's family on God's mission—let's live it out together!

The Grand Narrative by Pastor Josh Robinson.Recorded February 23, 2025.

Welcome to Day 2553 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2553 – Old Testament Orientation – The Language, Cosmology, Geography, and Interpretation of the Old Testament– Joshua 1:8 Putnam Church Message – 01/26/2024 Sermon Series: Old Testament Orientation Message 3: “The Language, Cosmology, Geography, and Interpretation of the Old Testament” Last week, we continued our Old Testament Orientation series with ‘The Grand Narrative of the Old Testament.' This week, we will cover the four key themes of language, cosmology, geography, and interpretation from an ancient Israelite perspective and Divine Council Worldview insights. Next week, we will begin to review the various groups of books based on their genre. Opening Prayer Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of Your Word, which transcends time and culture. As we gather to explore the rich tapestry of language, cosmology, geography, and interpretation in the Old Testament, guide our hearts and minds. Help us see through the eyes of the ancient Israelites, and may this understanding deepen our faith and relationship with You. In Jesus' name, Amen. Introduction Imagine standing on the hills of ancient Israel, gazing at the horizon. The world, as you know it, is filled with tangible signs of God's provision—the rains that water the crops, the stars that mark the seasons, and the sacred land promised by Yahweh. As an ancient Israelite, your understanding of life and faith is profoundly shaped by your language, your view of the cosmos, the land you call home, and how you interpret the laws and stories passed down through generations. Today, we will explore these four key aspects of the Old Testament: The Language of the Old Testament The Cosmology of the Ancient Israelites The Geography of the Promised Land The Importance of Interpretation The Language of the Old Testament The Old Testament was written primarily in Hebrew, a language deeply connected to the culture of the ancient Near East. It's a language of pictures and symbols, where words evoke images and emotions. For example, the Hebrew word ruach means both “spirit” and “wind,” emphasizing the unseen yet powerful presence of God. Object Lesson #1: The Breath of Life (Fan with Ribbons) Bring a small fan or a balloon. As the fan blows or the balloon inflates, explain how the unseen wind represents ruach. Just as the wind is invisible but powerful, so is the Spirit of God moving through creation and history (Genesis 1:2). The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the surface of the waters. Cultural Insight For the Israelites, language wasn't just a means of communication; it was an act of creation and covenant. In Genesis 1, God spoke the universe into existence. The Ten Commandments, spoken by God, weren't just rules—they were a covenant (contract) sealed by His Word. Words carried weight and authority, shaping reality and relationships. But beyond its theological significance, Hebrew also shaped the daily lives of the Israelites. The act of reciting prayers, like the Shema,...

As we continue our Grand Narrative, we will take a look at the world as we know it today, far away from the Edenic garden God created, in a world with murder, evil, floods and yet, still hope. If you're feeling a bit unmoored and anxious these days, there is beauty and hope in community together.

Welcome to Day 2549 of Wisdom-Trek. Thank you for joining me. This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2549 – Old Testament Orientation – The Grand Narrative of the Old Testament Putnam Church Message – 01/12/2024 Sermon Series: Old Testament Orientation Message 2: The Grand Narrative of the Old Testament Last week, we started a new series called Old Testament Orientation. We answered the question, “What is the Old Testament?” We explored how it is ultimately linked to the New Testament and that The entire Bible is a unified story that leads to Jesus. This week, we are continuing our series and exploring ‘The Grand Narrative of the Old Testament.' Opening Prayer Heavenly Father, we gather here today to explore the beauty and depth of Your story revealed in the Old Testament. Open our minds and hearts to see Your hand at work, weaving redemption and hope through every page. May we learn to trust You more deeply and understand our place in Your grand narrative. Guide us now by Your Spirit. In Jesus' name, Amen. Introduction The Old Testament isn't just a collection of ancient laws, prophecies, and genealogies. It is a grand narrative—a sweeping story of God's work among humanity, beginning with creation and pointing forward to ultimate redemption. For the ancient Israelites, this story was not just history; it was their identity, faith, and hope. The difference between the Old Testament and the New Testament is that the Old Testament is the story primarily of Israel. Starting with Genesis 12 all the way through the Old Testament, the story is focused on Israel. After the world implodes in Genesis 1-11, God decides to preserve a remnant so He can get what He desires, and what he desires is a human family. So, out of the chaos and depravity, he calls Abram, changes his name to Abraham, and starts over the Edenic (Garden of Eden) plan. God says, “I want a human family. That is why I created humanity. Things have gone terribly, but I am not giving up. I am going to take this one guy and his wife who cannot have children, and I am going to supernaturally create a people from them, and that is how I am going to keep the plan alive to eventually bring all nations back to me.” The nations dispersed at Babbel were reunited when Jesus Christ began God's kingdom on earth, and Pentecost was bringing together all nations under Christ. Today, we'll walk through the grand narrative of the Old Testament from an ancient Israelite's perspective. We must take on the mindset of an ancient Israelite. (Bulletin) We'll focus on: God as Creator and Sustainer God's Covenant with His People The Consequences of Disobedience The Hope of Redemption Let's immerse ourselves in the story and see how it speaks to our lives today. God as Creator and Sustainer The story begins with God's act of creation. Genesis 1:1 declares, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” For the Israelites, this was not just an explanation of origins but a proclamation of God's authority over all creation. From a Divine Council worldview, this narrative also introduces the unseen realm, where God presides over a council of divine beings who...

It's a MASSIVE episode this week as we chat about two very awesome things... Firstly Dave and Matt headed off to Warhammer World to take part in the massive Grand Narrative event which for the first time was being hosted here in the UK, as well as over in the states. We discuss how the event was ran, what we loved...and what we didn't love. GW also treated us to one of the best Warhammer Previews of recent times, so we just had to discuss all the stuff we saw which included plastic Kriegsmen and more heavy ordance, new AoS Goblins and brand new Aeldari minis. As well as those two big topics we of course have the latest Warhammer news, our hobby updates and Top 3 (which this week was all about picking our favourite minis from the reveal.) Enjoy!

Elizabeth Woodson, a Bible teacher and theologian, discusses her passion for Bible study, discipleship, and theological education in the local church. She shares her personal journey of searching for the relevance of the gospel in her own life and how it led her to pursue theological education. Elizabeth emphasizes the importance of creating pathways for discipleship and theological education within the church, so that believers can understand and apply the truths of Scripture in their everyday lives. She also discusses the challenges of busyness and the need for churches to provide meaningful and accessible opportunities for learning and growth. In a post-COVID world, churches have had to explore new opportunities for theological education and discipleship. People are hungry for connection, support, and answers to their questions. There is an opportunity to disciple adults in the basics of the faith and help them grow deeper in their faith. The early church valued theological education and had a rigorous catechism process for new converts. The church today can learn from the past and prioritize discipleship. Singleness in the church is often misunderstood and undervalued. The church needs to have a deeper theology of singleness and provide community and support for single individuals. The church should prioritize friendships and create a culture where singleness is seen as a beautiful season. The church needs to navigate the volatile political climate with grace, honoring people and holding true to the teachings of Jesus. Elizabeth Woodson is a Bible teacher, theologian, author, and the Founder of The Woodson Institute, an organization that equips believers to understand and grow in their Christian faith. With over a decade of experience in church ministry, Elizabeth is passionate about creating pathways for discipleship and theological education in the local church. Elizabeth is a graduate of Dallas Theological Seminary with a Masters in Christian Education. She is also the author of Embrace Your Life: How To Find Joy When The Life You Have Is Not The Life You Hoped For and From Beginning To Forever: A Study of the Grand Narrative of Scripture.

Truth has a story, and the Bible puts the entire narrative together. While many people know isolated events and popular phrases from within the pages of the Scriptures, it is important to understand the big picture of what God is doing.

The beautiful thing is that we all get a leading role in this epic chronicle that makes up God's plan. Each and every person is created in his image. They have value, he has made them for a purpose, and their story matters. Your story matters!  - Amanda Idleman SUBSCRIBE to our sister podcasts:Your Daily Prayer: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-prayer/Your Daily Bible Verse: https://www.lifeaudio.com/your-daily-bible-verse/ Discover more Christian podcasts at lifeaudio.com and inquire about advertising opportunities at lifeaudio.com/contact-us.

At one time, religious identity and the Christian narrative formed the social imaginary of our western world. To be a part of a local church or to identify with some aspect of the values of traditional faith was an assumed part of American life. But today, autonomy, self-fulfillment and individual expression seem to have taken the forefront of how a generation defines themselves and lives out the search for meaning and deeper purpose. My guest today is novelist and prolific writer, Tara Isabella Burton. Tara Isabella Burton is the author of the novels Social Creature, The World Cannot Give, and the forthcoming Here in Avalon (S&S, January 2024), and the nonfiction Strange Rites: New Religions for a Godless World and Self-Made: Creating Our Identities from Da Vinci to the Kardashians. She has written on religion and culture for The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, The Washington Post, and more. She received her doctorate in Theology from Oxford in 2017, and is currently a Visiting Fellow at George Mason University's Mercatus Center. In our conversation, Tara shares about how modern society has not so much abandoned it's yearning for transcendence in favor of a secular world view but has rather simply re-mixed the grand narrative to fit the values of expressive individualism. Tara also shares about fiction as a catalyst of embodying truth and how fandom, religious affiliation and art play into the shaping of identity.You can pre-order Tara's upcoming novel here.

How do we know who “this God” from Psalm 48:14 really is? And how can we be sure that he will be our God for ever and ever? Join Natalie Abbott and Elizabeth Woodson as they zoom out to help us see the big picture of what Scripture says about the faithfulness of God. They dig into why God's faithfulness is a theme in our verse, why it's such good news that God is faithful (even when we are faithless), what it means that God is our guide, and how we can pass this declaration along to the next generation. May memorizing and meditating on our memory verse this month help you declare this pledge of faithfulness to our God who is faithful! This month's memory verse: “For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end.” — Psalm 48:14Today's Dwell guest: Elizabeth Woodson is a Bible teacher, theologian, author, and the Founder of The Woodson Institute, an organization that equips believers to understand and grow in their Christian faith.
