In this episode, we're joined by Jeremy Treat, pastor for preaching and vision at Reality LA and author of the new book, On the Incarnation: The Good News of Jesus for the Renewal of the World. Drawing from the brilliance of Athanasius—an early church father who defended the full divinity of Christ—Treat makes ancient theology come alive for modern readers. We explore how Athanasius's Christ-centered theology speaks to the cosmic scope of salvation, the brokenness of our world, and the beauty of Jesus's incarnation. Jeremy also shares how theology and pastoral ministry intersect in his own life, and why recovering the early church's voice matters today. Buy the Book: On the Incarnation: The Good News of Jesus for the Renewal of the World Whether you're new to church history or looking to go deeper into the Incarnation, this episode will help you see why the theology of Athanasius still matters—and why Jesus didn't just save souls, but came to renew everything.

In this open and candid episode of the Expositors Collective podcast, Danijiel Zaharjanski shares his remarkable journey of being called by God to remain and serve in his homeland of Serbia, despite his initial plans to leave. Danijiel recounts how he and his wife, Wendy, planted a church in the city of Kragujevac, Central Serbia, where they've been living since 2012. Their church is one of only a very small handful of Protestant congregations south of the Danube River, which drives their mission to plant even more churches in the surrounding towns and villages in this under-reached region. The conversation explores Danijiel's reflections on American preachers, offering unique insights into cultural differences in preaching styles. More profoundly, Danijiel discusses the harsh reality that bad preaching and misguided theology can cause genuine harm to people's lives. His reflections highlight the importance of sound, gospel-centered preaching in ministry, particularly in a place where spiritual needs are great. Danijiel, Wendy, and their son, Tadija, continue their faithful work in Serbia, helping to bring the gospel to a region that desperately needs it.

EXILES: Grace-infused HopePastor Kent Landhuis THEME - How to avoid ruin while living in exile.TEXT - 1 Peter 1:13-25Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. ~ 1 Peter 1:131. Don't indulge evil desires. * 1 Peter 1:13-14 * So roll up your sleeves, get your head in the game, be totally ready to receive the gift that's coming when Jesus arrives. Don't lazily slip back into those old grooves of evil, doing just what you feel like doing. You didn't know any better then; you do now. 1 Peter 1:13-14 (MSG)2. Demonstrate holy living. * 1 Peter 1:15-21 * But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.” 1 Peter 1:15-16 (NIV)3. Double down on truth. * 1 Peter 1:22-25 * Now that you've cleaned up your lives by following the truth, love one another as if your lives depended on it. 1 Peter 1:22 (MSG)NEXT STEPS1. Confess Compromise.2. Confess Isolation.3. Love One Another. GO DEEPERLiving in Exile: Food for thought…To faithfully represent Christ, the church must learn to stand out from its surrounding context. Unfortunately, consumerism and individualism have so infiltrated the American church that it often mirrors worldly values with a veneer of Christian spirituality…What can churches do to recover our witness? We must rediscover our identity as a distinct community set apart by God's grace…We must combat the secular narratives of our day by telling a more compelling narrative, the story of God's kingdom…As an alternative community, the church isn't called to be against the city but for its good. Unfortunately, many Christians have an adversarial mindset toward the city, which is why most non-Christians assume the church is against everything in the world…Our cultural moment has certainly proven challenging. Yet what's happening in our world right now isn't an obstacle but an opportunity for the church to rediscover its true identity as a people in exile who are called to witness to a better kingdom…What do you think?These excerpts are from “Orthodoxy in Exile: Church as an Alternative Community” by Jeremy Treat.

Support The Becket Cook Show on Patreon! In today's episode, Becket chats with his pastor, Dr. Jeremy Treat, about his new book on the atonement. You'll be surprised and edified by this one. The atonement is central to Christian theology and essential for following Jesus. In this addition to the Short Studies in Systematic Theology series, pastor Jeremy Treat explains what Scripture teaches about the atonement and how it impacts one's daily life. Treat demonstrates that the death of Christ is a multi-dimensional work within the story of the kingdom of God. While the accomplishments of the cross are unending (including forgiveness, victory, and renewal), the heart of the cross is substitution―Jesus dying on behalf of sinners. Christ's atoning work reconciles believers to God and to one another, calling them to a life of obedience. This book presents a kingdom-framed, substitution-centered, Trinitarian, integrated, communal, and life-changing approach to the doctrine of atonement.

Jeremy Treat, pastor at Reality LA in Los Angeles, observes how our longing for God does not disappear in a secular society. It just reappears in different forms: sports, politics, sexuality, and more. Treat describes how secular people today seek power, purity, and peace—traditionally sought in religion—in things like witchcraft, wellness, and mindfulness apps. Yet our deepest longings, Treat says, will not be found in any spiritual system or clean diet, but in a person: Jesus Christ.
