  • From a student of Koine Greek

    Fabulous podcast. Please keep it up. Too often familiarity with the languages bears itself out in a superiority complex in pastoral leadership, rather than in humble, clear and beneficial exegesis, drawing out timeless truths from God’s Word to feed God’s people. As Spurgeon quipped, God called the shepherds to feed his lambs, not his giraffes. Thanks for bringing the fruit down for the herd to feast guys.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

1523. What Is the Soul? Patrick Holley on Psychology, Theology & Inner Transformation
Q: What is the role of emotions in the Christian life?
Emotions are meaningful signals and signposts that should be acknowledged and filtered through faith, hope, and love, guiding decisions rather than driving them uncritically.
1523. What Is the Soul? Patrick Holley on Psychology, Theology & Inner Transformation
Q: How do you define the ground of our identity?
God's Spirit grounds our identity; we cooperate with Him to align our thoughts, will, and behavior with divine purposes rather than grounding ourselves in our own attributes or performance.
1523. What Is the Soul? Patrick Holley on Psychology, Theology & Inner Transformation
Q: What motivated you to write Jesus and the Soul?
I wanted to understand how psychology and Christianity relate, and to address extremes where psychology is dismissed or elevated above Christ, seeking a balanced, biblically grounded integration.
1510. Joel, Politics, and the Danger of Self-Serving Bible Reading | Dr. Charlie Hadjiev
Q: How should pastors preach Joel without deepening political fissures or divides?
Pastors should balance addressing important issues with sensitivity to diverse audiences, avoid partisan extremes, and emphasize responsible interpretation and human dignity over partisan victory; preaching should invite dialogue rather than monopoly over truth.
1510. Joel, Politics, and the Danger of Self-Serving Bible Reading | Dr. Charlie Hadjiev
Q: How do Calvin and Luther read Joel differently and what does that tell us about hermeneutical approaches today?
Calvin reads Joel in a way that aligns with supporting a vulnerable Protestant community against perceived enemies, while Luther interprets Joel Christocentrically, turning military conflict into spiritual conquest; this contrast shows how readers' own contexts shape interpretation and the risks of weaponizing scripture.
