  • Great Podcast!

    After Class Podcast has been a blessing to me. This podcast is always a good listen. If you are a new Christian, someone who has been following Jesus for a long time, or someone trained for and doing ministry for a while, this podcast is helpful, insightful and does a good job of exploring the nuances and “big rocks” of theology and Biblical exegesis. The three profs interact well, have fun, and are personable. Wherever you are on your faith journey, I would recommend this podcast.

  • Incredible Free Information about the Kingdom

    Great podcast for all. Whether you’ve been a part of the Kingdom for years or a new member or even just trying to figure out what the Kingdom of God is all about - Ron, Sam, and John will challenge what you know (or what you think you know) about the biblical truths found in God’s word using sound techniques of interpretation to help you grow (if you’re willing) no matter where your walk is with God. Worth the commitment to listen to the incredible knowledge they share - for free!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

8.47 - Frank Viola: Worship in Empty Rooms
Q: How do you think that affected Israel's understanding of the temple and their relationship to God?
Many Israelites were likely waiting for the messiah and were expecting God's presence to return, but the absence of the Ark and the lack of glory in the temple likely impacted their faith and self-identity as God's chosen people.
8.39 - 1 Peter: Combating Regression
Q: What does it mean to make spiritual sacrifices?
Spiritual sacrifices now include various acts of love and service within the community, moving away from traditional animal sacrifices to a life of mutual care in accordance with the Gospel.
8.39 - 1 Peter: Combating Regression
Q: Why do you have to tell them that if all that has happened, you're purified, then why do you still have to rid these things from our lives?
It's a process; there's a tension that comes with embracing the gospel message and conforming to it, where believers can still slip into negative behaviors.
8.37 - 1 Peter: Faith, Works, Foreknowledge
Q: How does the statement about being judged according to works fit with the wider message of salvation by grace through faith?
The discussion highlights the difference in how Peter and Paul use the concept of works, suggesting that Peter's focus on lifestyle choices reflects one's faith rather than a means of earning salvation.
8.17 - Submission
Q: How do I tell the difference between the limits of submission?
It's important to have conversations with respected individuals in your community, as discernment is key in understanding when submission becomes harmful.
