When Philip Yancey first wrote, "What's So Amazing About Grace?" he thought it would be the end of his career. When asked what gave him the courage to publish the book anyway, he had this inspiring quote

Happy Easter! May the truth of the resurrection remind you of God’s great love for you, fill you with hope, motivate you to love others, and assure you that in the end, everything is going to be ok. Everything
“Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”
Christian theologians universally agree that the God revealed in the Bible is neither male nor female, but Jesus was a man and he taught us to pray to “Our Father.” How do we reconcile these facts?
Listen to
@KaitlynSchiess
and
@albpeeler
discuss in Episode 543.
"I do find it a little grating that people are so upset about use of biblical language when it comes to Taylor Swift, but not when Republican politicians use scripture for their political purposes." 🔥🔥🔥

@JemarTisby
wrapped up our first season of "Why I'm Still a Christian" perfectly - once we experience Jesus, "there's no going back. There's nothing better."
We hope this series has been meaningful and encouraging to you! Let us know who you would want to see in season 2
"When we politicized the church, we made a grave mistake. We thought we could recover America by getting the right people in office, but the problem isn't in the office. It's in the church."

"The role of the Church in the world is to be faithful, not effective. The goal is fidelity, not impact."

Faithfully interpreting Scripture is not easy! It was written at a different time, to a different people, in a different culture. In episode 578, John Walton provides great insights on how to read and better understand the Bible.
Kaitlyn argued the "He Gets Us" ad was targeted towards Christians. Are you willing to be shamed for your associations? Are you willing to be shamed for loving others before they've repented of what you believe to be grievous sins?
It was great having Brian Zahnd on the podcast this week to talk about his view of the cross and the atonement. He argues that the focus of the cross should be on mercy and forgiveness, rather than punishment. What do you think?
Everyone wants to see themselves as the hero of every story in the Bible, but never the anti-hero.
@KaitlynSchiess
helps us understand when to put ourselves in the Biblical story, and when we need to say, "Hi. It's me. I'm the problem it's me."
Full interview in Ep 579!
It's release day for

"For God's people to say, 'I'm not gonna help you because there's not enough' is a betrayal of the kingdom we are called to. That's not the way of Jesus."

Everyone knows the Rapture is in the Bible. Or is it? Despite it being popularized by Christian books, movies, and even Hollywood,
@SkyeJethani
makes the case that the Rapture is not actually in the Bible and it's time for it to be left behind.
"Very few books will be read. Very few hobbies. Very little time in nature. Very little time talking with friends. All of these things are reduced enormously, some to zero."

We know the Bible was divinely inspired, but what about the Constitution? This once fringe idea is now growing among conservative evangelicals. Skye explains the Constitution's origin and why the belief that God wrote it is more harmful than we realize.
If you disagree with your church's stance on gender roles, is that a deal-breaker? Here's Kaitlyn's advice.

We see the Bible being misused and abused for political gain all the time, but does that mean the Bible should never be mixed with politics? Not necessarily...

NEW VIDEO! What does the Bible actually say about the age of the Earth? If Genesis 1 says God created the earth in 6 days, who are we to say he didn't?
But what if we're asking questions that Genesis 1 is not trying to answer...
Tomorrow: a team-up years in the making. Stay tuned for this week’s Russell Moore Show, dropping Wed where ever you listen to podcasts.
Identity theft is a joke. This is real.
"The way the gospel has been preached in the West for a very long time...you can become a Christian without becoming a follower of Jesus himself."
It was great having John Mark Comer on to talk about the cost of not discipling people to follow Jesus.
If we only listen to the most extreme voices on either side of the political spectrum, who benefits?
Certainly not the Church.

How we understand our own identity shapes our political theology. We should absolutely be having conversations about policy, but we have to do it from a grounded place of knowing who God is and who we are as members of God's household.
