In many ways the call of the Church, and of every local church body, is to model cruciform love and care for one another in a world built by Cain.

What Do We Mean by Inspiration
Why do we care so much about the Bible? And why do we try so hard to understand it? In part, because we believe it is the inspired word of God. But what do we mean by inspiration? How does that actually work? I think if we can see how the Bible works we can better understand what it is actually saying. Want more?

Repetition: How the OT Works
To start reading the OT with new eyes you need to remember one word: repetition. This is how the OT works. The authors of Scripture repeat words, ideas, places, names, stories, images, etc. If you can pick up on those repetitions a whole new world opens up.

Learning to Read with the Early Church
How did the early church read their Scriptures, what we call the Old Testament? And how do we see those reading habits built into their writings the New Testament? In this episode we continue our series on learning to read the Scriptures by looking at how the NT authors employ Scriptural echoes, allusions and "hyperlinks". Part of learning to read the Scriptures well is directly tied to recognizing how the authors constructed their stories, poems, and writings. Want more?

Reading in Light of Jesus
Reading the Bible can be puzzling to say the least, but the metaphor of a puzzle can actually help us tackle the daunting task. In this episode I argue that Jesus, as the image of God, is the picture on the "puzzle box" of Scripture and that He should inform how we read and interpret it. This means that we cannot read the Scriptures and come to see God as something other than the crucified and risen Jesus. Want more?

Reading on the Emmaus Road
One of the greatest tasks given to Christians is learning to read Scripture faithfully. Yet for many this is a point of burdensome frustration. In this series I want to have a series of conversations around becoming faithful readers of Scripture, how we do that, what obstacles do we face, what mistakes are often made, and what strategies we can employ, so that we can read the Bible well. But first we need to admit two things. First, that the task of reading the Bible faithfully is hard. We've all probably admitted that to ourselves but many haven't ever f...

Being Pro-Life is More Than Abortion
During my life time there has been no greater political issue than abortion. It is the proverbial political hill most Christians will die on. But I believe that being pro-life, in a truly Christian sense, is much bigger than being against abortion. To be pro-life is to be against anything that brings death, fear, and oppression. I think we need to rethink what it means to be pro-life and all the implications of wearing such a label. Want more?

This is sometimes called civil religion or nationalism and the Bible has a lot to say about it.

Stop Saying "God Killed Jesus"
6 years ago my theological journey began when I watched the "Monster God Debate". By the time the debate was finished my imagination had been captured and my heart undone by a newfound beauty in the cross of Christ and the God of the Bible. Most of us, myself included prior to this debate, have heard the gospel presented in a way that makes God out to be angry and distant, like a judge who must punish sin and refuses to look upon filthy sinners while Jesus is seen as merciful and kind. I suggest that our misunderstanding of the...

Stop Saying "I'm Not a Theologian"
In the second to last episode in this series I want to examine the common claim that many regular churchgoers make, that they are not theologians. This claim is too often rooted in a false view of the Spirit and is employed as a kind of spiritual escapism that is rooted in fear, fear of not being smart enough, of not measuring up, or of not getting it right. However, Jesus calls us to love God with our minds, and when we do we actually open ourselves to a unique work of God's grace. Want more? Read a...
