What was Jesus’ Mission?

How can we trust a book containing so many miraculous stories, with so many miscopies and mistranslations? Isn’t it more reasonable to argue that the Bible should be read as mythology? Was the canon of Scripture decided upon for political reasons? Michael Horton discusses these questions and more with Craig Blomberg, professor of New Testament […]

Is the story of Jesus the stuff of legends or of actual history? Was Jesus really a miracle-worker, or merely someone whose deeds were later embellished by his followers? How can we even know whether he existed in the first place? Joining Mike for this conversation is Douglas Groothuis, professor of Philosophy at Denver Seminary […]

Each holiday season we’re given another opportunity to watch television specials on the life of Jesus. But these programs end up featuring the same left-of-center scholars with radical views about Jesus. Unfortunately, many Christians today don’t know how to respond to these radical claims since they often focus on “the Jesus of my heart” rather […]

What are they saying about Jesus in today’s music, movies, and television? Who is the Hipster Jesus, and how does he differ from the Macho Jesus? More importantly, how are these popular expressions of Jesus different from the real Jesus? Joining the hosts to discuss this important issue are David Zahl of Mockingbird Ministries, and […]

The hosts sit down with Nancy Guthrie before a live audience in order to further unpack the themes she outlined in her conference address relating to Jesus’ role as the ultimate and final sacrifice for sin. During this roundtable discussion, the hosts also […]

What is the significance of Jesus’ incarnation? On this program the hosts answer this by examining the key New Testament texts that announce the birth of Christ and walk through numerous Old Testament prophecies in which these promises are rooted. Joining the panel once again to discuss this important topic is Nancy Guthrie, author of […]

At the heart of the good news is the fact that Jesus lived and died in our place, and that our right standing before God is based on his finished work, rather than on our own poor attempts to fulfill God’s just requirements. On this program we’re concluding our series on the person and work […]

Although we live in a busy society, God invites us to come away and rest. Throughout the Bible, we see Jesus withdraw from the crowd to spend time with his Father. Although he is fully God, Jesus was fully man, too, which means he had limits like ours.

Nobody really knows what to do with the Sabbath anymore. A frequent point of contention between Jesus and that group of ultra-religious elites was what was lawful or unlawful to do on the Sabbath. Even a quick perusal of the Gospels reveals how common this conflict was. From healing the man with a withered hand […]

Jesus is baptized, receives the Holy Spirit, and immediately crosses the Jordan and enters the wilderness outside of Israel to be tested for forty days. The story of Jesus’s temptation is an Israel-shaped story. By sojourning in the wilderness and embodying the story of Israel, Jesus shows us that he is the true and faithful Son of God.

This presentation analyzes the crisis of justification in today’s church, tracing its biblical foundations, reformational clarity, and modern challenges.
