In this episode of the Pastor Theologians Podcast, we invite Heather Joy Zimmerman, a member of CPT's St Irenaeus fellowship, to share how profound personal suffering shaped both her faith and her calling. Reflecting on the loss of a close friend, her father's battle with cancer, and her journey through lament, Heather explains how God used Scripture—especially Romans 8 and the Psalms—to deepen her understanding of God's goodness and inspire a lifelong passion for helping others faithfully navigate suffering. Heather also traces her path from Moody Bible Institute to Dallas Theological Seminary and Wheaton College, where her academic work on the Psalms of lament and preaching emerged from her own spiritual journey. She discusses her passion for theological education, forming faithful preachers, and bridging the gap between the academy and the local church. The conversation offers a compelling vision of the Pastor Theologian—one whose scholarship is rooted in personal faith, pastoral ministry, and a deep love for Christ and his people.Join us at the CPT Conference
What did Jesus mean when He told the scribe, "You are not far from the kingdom of God" (Mark 12:34)? Was that a compliment—or a warning? In this verse-by-verse exposition of Mark 12:32–34, we explore one of the most intriguing encounters in Jesus' final week before the cross. A Jewish scribe agrees with Jesus about the greatest commandment, and Jesus responds with words He never speaks to anyone else: "You are not far from the kingdom of God." But what does it mean to be close to God's kingdom without actually entering it? If you enjoy the episode, please consider subscribing to the podcast and leaving a 5-stars rating. This helps others find the podcast. My sermons are the fruit of nearly 30 years of pastoral ministry, biblical counseling, formal seminary training, and a lifelong passion for God's Word. Since childhood, I've been drawn to the beauty and power of expository preaching—opening Scripture verse by verse and applying it to real life. After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I spent the next 27 years serving as a youth pastor, senior pastor, church planter, and host of the Food For Your Soul radio broadcast. Along the way, I also earned a Master of Sacred Literature and a Doctor of Religious Studies. For more content from D. Richard Ferguson, visit TreasuringGod.com.

What is the greatest thing a human being could ever do? Of all God's commandments, which one matters most? In Mark 12:28–31, a scribe asks Jesus one of the most important questions in all of Scripture: "Which commandment is the most important?" Jesus' answer reveals the greatest priority in the Christian life—not ministry success, not religious activity, not even loving your neighbor, but loving God with all your heart, soul, mind, and strength. But what role do emotions play in obeying that command? Many get this wrong. We examine Jesus' teaching on the Greatest Commandment, why love for God comes before every other duty, and how the first commandment gives meaning to every other command in Scripture.

There are scholars with PhDs in theology, New Testament Greek, Biblical Studies—trained in apologetics and defending the faith, who have been deceived and have gone astray. There are people who have lived incredibly godly lives, made huge sacrifices, served on the mission field or as pastors, and who have been led astray and now deny the faith. If there are people smarter than me, more well-versed than me, godlier than me, more self-controlled than me, and more zealous for the Lord than me who have been led astray, how can I be assured it won't happen to me? There is some false teacher out there somewhere who could outsmart you. Peter sees it, and he rips off their masks and exposes their strategies so you and I can avoid the shipwreck of faith that has overtaken so many before us. This text may not be the most heartwarming passage in the Bible, and nobody puts it on a coffee mug or bookmark. But it could very well save your life!

What if the opening chapter of the Bible isn't telling you how God built the universe... but why he moved into it?Dr. John Walton has spent over four decades studying Genesis through the lens of ancient Near Eastern literature, and his conclusion has reshaped the way scholars, pastors, and Christians around the world read the creation account. In this conversation, Dr. Walton walks us through his groundbreaking argument that Genesis 1 is not a material origins story. It's not a science textbook. It's not answering the question "how did God make all the stuff?" It's answering a far more profound question: what kind of world is this, and what is our place in it?Dr. John Walton is Professor Emeritus of Old Testament at Wheaton College, where he taught for over two decades after 20 years at Moody Bible Institute. He holds a Ph.D. from Hebrew Union College and is the author of the bestselling Lost World series, Ancient Near Eastern Thought and the Old Testament, the Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible, and dozens of other works that have shaped evangelical scholarship for a generation.In this episode you will learn:- Why Genesis 1 is an account of order and function, not material manufacturing- What the Hebrew word "bara" actually does in the text and why "create" doesn't capture it- How the seven days map to a cosmic temple inauguration, not a construction timeline- Why Day 7 is the climax of the entire creation account and what divine rest really means- What ancient Israelites would have understood about the sun, moon, and stars that we completely miss- Why the phrase "the Bible was written for us but not to us" changes everything- How Walton responds to critics who say he's disconnected Genesis from real history- Why his framework removes Genesis from the science vs. faith debate entirely- What's new in his latest book, New Explorations in the Lost World of GenesisGUEST: Dr. John WaltonProfessor Emeritus of Old Testament, Wheaton CollegePh.D., Hebrew Union CollegeThe Lost World of Genesis One:https://a.co/d/07tltChHWheaton College Faculty Page:https://www.wheaton.edu/academics/faculty/john-walton/IVP Author Page:https://www.ivpress.com/john-h-waltonBioLogos:https://biologos.org/people/john-waltonSTAY CONNECTEDWebsite:https://www.johnnyova.comYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@thejohnnyovaThe Revelation Reset:https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DQMR4BH3
Can the resurrection really be proven from the Old Testament? In Mark 12, a group of religious experts comes to Jesus with a clever question about the resurrection, and his answer exposes two kinds of ignorance that can quietly derail anyone's walk with God. You'll discover how to deepen your confidence in God's power and become less vulnerable to spiritual deception. Why did Jesus rebuke the Sadducees for not knowing the Scriptures or the power of God? In this verse-by-verse expository Bible study of Mark 12:18–27, we explore one of Jesus' most profound confrontations during His final week before the cross.

What does God mean when he says, "I will be YOUR God?" The answer might be one of the overlooked keys to enjoying nearness to the Lord. In Mark 12:18-27, Jesus faces one of the most difficult attacks against the doctrine of resurrection. The Sadducees, who denied life after death, present a hypothetical scenario intended to make belief in the resurrection seem absurd. But Jesus responds with a powerful rebuke that exposes both their misunderstanding of Scripture and their failure to grasp the power of God. We explore Jesus' remarkable defense of the resurrection, His teaching about life in the age to come, and the significance of God's declaration: "I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob."

Today, on Karl and Crew, we wrapped up our weekly theme, "Temptation," by discussing various temptations with experts in their fields and how they overcome them. Dr. Winfred Neely joined us to discuss the temptation to manage worry in our own strength.

Dr. Neely is Professor Emeritus of Old Testament, Biblical Interpretation, and Preaching at Moody Bible Institute and author of "How to Overcome Worry – Experiencing the Peace of God in Every Situation." Dr. Michael Rydelnik also joined us to talk about spiritual conflict in the Middle East, the danger of remaining silent in the face of evil, and how believers can stand firm by reading, meditating on, and speaking the Word of God. Dr. Rydelnik is Professor Emeritus of Jewish Studies and Bible and an Adjunct Professor in the undergraduate program at Moody Bible Institute. He is the author of "How Should Christians Think About Israel?" Omer Eshel joined us from Israel to discuss the reported protests in Gaza against Hamas. He explained how many Palestinian civilians are seeking freedom from Hamas’ control, urging believers to pray for peace, protection, and the people caught in the middle. Omer is the CEO and Co-founder of The Bible Comes to Life Travel and Educational Center.

Why did ordinary fishermen drop everything and follow a carpenter they had just met? What kind of person can command demons, disease, and human hearts with a word? In Mark 1, you'll encounter the breathtaking authority of Jesus—and seeing his greatness more clearly can deepen your trust, strengthen your surrender, and inspire you to follow him with greater confidence and joy. In this expository sermon from Mark 1:14-34, we explore the awesome authority of Jesus Christ. Mark introduces Jesus not as merely a great teacher or miracle worker, but as the promised King and Son of God who possesses absolute authority over people's lives, their future, evil spirits, disease, and the kingdom of God itself. Why did fishermen leave their nets immediately to follow Jesus? Why were people more astonished by His teaching than by His miracles? How could Jesus command demons and sickness with just a word? This passage reveals a Savior unlike anyone who has ever lived. ------------ After graduating from Moody Bible Institute, I spent the next 27 years serving as a youth pastor, senior pastor, church planter, and host of the Food For Your Soul radio broadcast.

God hasn’t gone quiet … so why does it feel like it? Today on BOLD STEPS, Mark Jobe brings a message straight from a President’s Chapel at Moody Bible Institute that cuts right to the issue: the problem isn’t whether we can hear God … it’s whether we obey when we do. The writer of Hebrews had a word for this, and it’s one we all need to hear ... listen to Bold Steps with Mark Jobe.

We all oppose corrupt politicians. But have you ever considered what it means to be corruption-free as a voter? What is your responsibility before God in the ballot box? Most believers recognize corruption when politicians use government power for personal gain. But what happens when ordinary citizens use their vote to do the same thing? In this message, we explore a challenging biblical principle: every act of government is backed by coercive authority, and every voter in a democratic republic wields a small portion of that power. Drawing from Scripture's teaching on the God-ordained role of government, we'll examine the moral implications of taxation, wealth redistribution, government benefits, and voting.

[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.
