This idea, that Old Testament people, events, and things existed with very intricate specifications, guided by God, to show us Christ before He even came to Earth as a Man, is called typology. Typology can be one of the most enriching and interesting studies you can do if you take the time to realize that the Old and New Testaments all revolve around the person of Jesus Christ, and realize that it exists in different facets to amaze us at the Bible's intricacy, show us God's hand in effecting the course of world events, and prove, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that Jesus is God.
On this episode I am joined by one of my all time favorite person in the world of theology and apologetics, host of the Bible Thinker Podcast, Mike Winger (link below) to discuss this awesome study and go through some examples of typology to, hopefully, introduce it to you if you've never heard of it, re-excite you about it if you've put it on the backburner, and illustrate the richness that this study can bring to a Christian's life.
Huge thank you to Jamie Schreiber and Chaz Leathers in their help with video and audio for this project. These amazing interviews could not be accomplished without their help!

God can be patient when we mess up. People can patiently wait on something expected. Even dogs can learn to be patient for a treat. How is love patient?
Join us in this first part of the study of love as we discuss patience/long-suffering and how it relates to love in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8. Throughout this study, we strive to make this section of scripture more than just a list of words, and work to understand more and more about God's love for us, what is expected of us in showing love to others, and what we should expect when others love us.

This is an introduction episode for, what will be, an ongoing study on the topic of love. Together, we'll walk through 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, one quality at a time, to refrain from making these verses nothing more than a memorable list, and start making them rich, full, applicable words of God.
A study of love is a study of God's nature, His actions, His expectations of what we are supposed to become and exemplify, as well as a study of what we should expect from others in their treatment of us, as we're told to show love to each other, in every type of human interaction we might encounter.
From self-love to brotherly love, enemies, to friends, romantic feelings to familial bonds, and from God to mankind, all of us should have an accurate understanding of what the Bible says about love. I really hope you enjoy this study!

Micah Gunn sits down with notable theologian and apologist, Thomas Fretwell to discuss miracles from an apologetic standpoint. Often, Christians don't include miracles within their apologetic conversations for a variety of reasons. Should we? Join us as we discuss common questions Christians have when it comes to the miraculous, different techniques for discussing the supernatural with atheists and naturalists, and enjoy the conversation along with Micah and Thomas as they discuss miracles from philosophical, historical, and theological frameworks.

The beginning of humankind is fascinating to study. The creation account, the fall of man, and the start of the story of human history can offer a lot of good conversation, but we can't forget that these are more than stories. These are texts meant to give us understanding about God, His plan, and ourselves.
When you read about Eve taking the fruit from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, do you read it as a narrative story, or do you study it as a person trying to glean what they can from scripture? Do you read that mankind gets cut off from the Garden of Eden and come to the conclusion that it was an isolated incident, or do you recognize that we have that fruit before us all the time and Satan's influence always tempting us to eat of it?
In this episode we take a look at what sin was committed in that Garden, so that we can be on guard against that same sin that might also be presented to us at some point in our lives.

In the conclusion of this interview, Dr. Britt and I take a deeper look at the Moral Argument for God's existence. While most people inherently feel that there is objective morality, there are many who would argue against that. Where does that leave individuals who believe this?
Through discussion on what this argument claims, what objectivity is, differing opinions on morality, and several examples and interesting diversions, I hope you get a better understanding of how the truth of objective morality points to the objective truth of a transcendent Law-Giver.

In part 1 of my interview with Dr. Steven Britt, we discuss the Ontological argument for God's existence. This might be one of the most confusing and misunderstood arguments throughout history, but what value can we draw from it?
As we discuss this philosophical, a priori, argument at length, ideally, you will discover that God's existence is a reasonable belief with extensive rationale behind it. While I still have a long way to go in my interview/hosting skills, hopefully you will enjoy the intricacies of the discussion and are able to take away something positive from this discourse.
Thanks very much to Dr. Britt for his time, study, expertise, and conversation!

Often, people will point to Jesus saying that someone's faith made them well, or the scripture where Jesus went to His hometown and was "unable to perform many mighty works because of the people's unbelief," and conclude that God must rely on our faith. We'd be right in reasoning that our faith is important and that it holds a correlation to God working in our lives, but what exactly IS the relationship there?

So much can be drawn out of scripture if we ask questions about what we read, rather than just read it, expecting the same message every time.
In this episode, we do a half verse-by-verse, half expository study of accounts of the disciples going fishing. Why are these recorded for us? Why were they important to the disciples? Why did they happen the way they did?

You've heard it said in prayer before, maybe you've said it yourself, or maybe you've never said it. "In Jesus Christ's name we pray," is more than an aesthetically pleasing phrase to round out a prayer. It's more than a kind nod at Christ to keep Him in the loop. It is more than just words.
Today we take a look at this phrase for those of us who say it routinely and might have lost the deeper meaning, for those of us who say it and never understood the fullness of the words, and for those of us who don't include it in our prayers ever, in order to look at the necessity, and the depth, of something that has become commonplace, but shouldn't be said dismissively or out of habit and nothing more.
God desires a relationship with us and one huge part of this relationship is prayer. It is so easy to not be mindful of the things we say in prayer, particularly with things that become "church-speak." Many things, like "in Jesus Christ's name we pray," are examples of this "church-speak" that are wonderful practices, given that we are not practicing vain repetition, but speaking to God in fullness of understanding of what we are saying, how we are able to say it, and Who we are saying it to.
