This week we’re talking about the percentage of Protestant pastors who believe there is a growing sense of fear within their churches regarding the future of the nation and the future of “Christianity.” Why is that the case? What is causing churchgoers to be fearful? Is that the appropriate response to whatever is provoking that emotional reaction, or should Christians be responding in another way? We’re going to talk about that today.Continue Reading

Recently, some military officials testified before Congress about the U.S. Government’s cover-up about UFOs and other information they had collected related to that. If it turned out to be true that aliens exist and had visited the earth, what would that mean from a spiritual standpoint? We’re going to talk about that today.Continue Reading

This week we’re talking about social media and the way others respond to the religious content we might post on there. Many Christians use social media, at least in part, to share content that contains a religious message (articles, images, videos, etc.). However, if you do this on a regular basis, there’s a good chance you’ve had people block, unfollow, or unfriend you on that social media site. And often you won’t even know when this has happened. So what do we do about this? We’re going to talk about that in our episode today.Continue Reading

This week we’re talking about the Chinese Communist Party testing a new app that requires citizens to pre-register in order to attend a religious service. This would enable them to limit the number of people who can assemble at a given time. Of course, this also fits in with their current practice of limiting the number of state-approved churches that citizens may legally attend. There are a few points I want us to consider about this today.Continue Reading
What does “propitiation” mean? How is “justification” connected to salvation? What does “sanctification” look like in our day-to-day lives? The Bible uses some powerful words to describe God’s plan to save mankind. However, these words are not always easy to understand, especially when they are not part of our everyday vocabulary. This book explores key Bible terms that unlock the message of the gospel.
Big Words in the Bible examines five important words – Propitiation, Reconciliation, Sanctification, Justification, and Resurrection – using plain language to see how the Scriptures describe these concepts and how the apostle Paul employs them in his letter to the Romans. This book also contains an appendix with eleven additional articles to explore these topics further.
Whether you are new to the Bible and want to grow in your understanding or want a simple way to explain these core gospel doctrines to others, this book will be helpful. With a focus on the Scriptures, Big Words in the Bible helps break down these fundamental topics to shed light on the life-changing message of the gospel and the salvation found in it.
