EP303 Jesus Quoted a Different Old Testament Than Most Christians Realize
What if the version of the Old Testament most commonly quoted by the New Testament writers is one that most Christians have never read? In this study, we explore the Septuagint (LXX)—the ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Scriptures that was widely used throughout the world of Jesus, the Apostles, and the early Church. You'll discover how the Septuagint came to be, why it became so influential, and several places where Jesus appears to quote directly from it. We'll also discuss common ob...

EP302 The Doctrine Christians Affirm with Their Mouths and Contradict with Their Lives (Galatians 2:14-21)
In Galatians 2:11–21, Paul publicly confronts Peter for withdrawing from table fellowship with Gentile believers and acting out of step with the truth of the gospel. This episode explores why Peter’s actions implied that Gentiles had to “live like Jews,” even if he never said those words directly. We’ll unpack Paul’s argument about justification by faith, union with Christ, and why adding law-keeping as a requirement for righteousness would mean Christ died for nothing.

EP300 When Apostles Collide: The Real Story of Peter and Paul's Dispute at Antioch (Galatians 2:11-14)
Paul publicly rebuked Peter to his face in one of the most shocking confrontations in the New Testament — but what really happened at Antioch? In this livestream, we examine Galatians 2:11–14, the dispute between Peter and Paul, the role of Barnabas, the Jerusalem Council, and the growing Jew-Gentile controversy in the early church.

EP299 Do NOT Presume! A Homily for Pentecost
Pentecost was never meant to produce comfortable, nominal Christianity. In this Pentecost homily, I explore how Acts 2 connects back to Mount Sinai, John the Baptist’s warning to Israel, and the danger of presuming we belong to God while remaining unchanged. The fire of Pentecost was not about emotional hype—it was about repentance, surrender, holiness, and the transforming presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives. If you’ve ever wondered whether modern Christianity has lost the weight and ur...

EP298 Did THIS Church Council Change Christianity Forever?
In Galatians 2:1–10, Paul describes a private meeting in Jerusalem that may have shaped the future of Christianity forever. Why did Paul confront “false brothers”? Why was Titus such a controversial figure? And what was really at stake in this tense encounter between Paul and the leaders of the early church? In this live Bible study, we’ll walk verse by verse through Galatians 2:1–10, exploring the historical background, the gospel controversy surrounding circumcision, and the unity—and tens...

EP297 Bible Q&A: Is the "Son of Destruction" A Real Person? (2 Thessalonians 2)
I answer listener-submitted Bible questions live on the first Wednesday of every month. On today's livestream, the first question I will answer is: Is the “Son of Destruction” in 2 Thessalonians 2 a real, future individual—or is Paul describing something broader? Join us as we take a deep dive into 2 Thessalonians 2:3–11, one of the most debated passages in all of Scripture. Who is the man of lawlessness? Is this the Antichrist? A symbolic figure? A system? Or someone already fulfilled...
