  • Brilliant, engaging meditations

    I have listened to many BibleProject series now and I benefit every week from remembering again, with each episode, that the Bible (the whole of Creation) is a unified story that tells of the love of Jesus. Thank you Tim, John and the whole team. 🌻💕🙏🏼🕊️

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Spirit as the Third Person of the Trinity
Q: So, how does one get there? If one wants to get there, how does one get there?
Mackie points to passages in John where the Spirit is sent by the Father and Son, teaches and reminds the disciples, and testifies to Jesus, as well as Pauline language describing the Spirit of the Son. He explains that these patterns informed the development of Trinitarian language.
The Spirit as the Third Person of the Trinity
Q: Is the Spirit a person? Or is the Spirit more like an energy?
The speakers consider both impersonal descriptions of the Spirit as power and passages in John and Paul where the Spirit teaches, guides, and is distinct in relation to the Father and Son. They present the Spirit as God's personal presence while acknowledging the interpretive complexity of the biblical texts.
How Does the 6th Commandment Apply to Killing in Military Combat?
Q: In the episode on the second command, you said creating an image in your mind limits and contains it. Are we reducing God when we describe God as good or loving?
We should recognize that language about God can be true in a limited way and shape our understanding without fully capturing God's essence; imagery and terms can misrepresent if used to control or commodify God, but under careful use they help convey relational truths rather than replace revelation.
How Should Jude Influence How We Think About the Deuterocanon?
Q: Can you explain more about love meals or love feasts?
These are communal meals referred to in Jude, emphasizing the importance of togetherness in worship and community, and they relate to the Lord's Supper.
How Should Jude Influence How We Think About the Deuterocanon?
Q: How should we think about the brothers of Jesus?
There are different views, including that they were his cousins or stepbrothers from a previous marriage of Joseph, but many also view them as half-brothers born after Jesus.
