Why do Christians disagree?

In my newest episode of Bite Size Seminary, I review When Doctrine Divides the People of God: An Evangelical Approach to Theological Diversity by Rhyne Putman, published by Crossway. This book is a helpful guide for thinking through the causes of theological disagreements in the church and helps to chart a course toward understanding and productive relationship.

New video/podcast on "Ministry, Reading, Burnout"

If we stop reading, we stop learning. And if we stop learning, then we stop ministering effectively. If we’re going to pour into others, we need to be poured into as well. Reading is an important tool toward fostering longevity in ministry and avoiding burnout. But reading is not just about reading more books but the right ones, good books.

Struggling to share your faith with others? Me too!

In the newest episode of my podcast I talk about seven C's for authentically communicating your faith in this episode. I discuss how to engage in genuine conversations without confrontation while keeping Christ at the center. I explore how to be good neighbors and friends through honest and open dialogue while making Christianity intellectually and emotionally compelling.

Our goal is to invite others into a relationship with Christ, not just win an argument. Evangelism is hard. But these seven C's make it a bit easier and more authentic.

Have you ever wanted to learn to read the New Testament in Greek but didn't know where to start? In this episode I share 4 reasons why my favorite is Reading Koine Greek by Rodney Decker along with 2 negatives about the book. The book's streamlined morphology and use of the "4 quad chart" helps unlock Greek morphology. So if you're looking to learn or review Greek, this episode is for you!

Is God a narcissist?

In this video I talk about God's character and the real function of praise. The Bible reveals a God who is not self-absorbed but one who is beautiful, loves, and serves.

Preachers have responsibilities in preaching Scripture. But what about the rest of us? Are we just off the hook and all the responsibility is on the preacher? In this episode, I turn the attention from the pulpit to the pew, and I discuss the ethics of listening to a sermon.
