What made the God of Judaism so unusual in the ancient world? The same thing that makes the Christ of Christianity so unusual today—an everlasting, all-encompassing, never-failing love. But through the years, scholars and commentators have philosophized that Paul focuses more on justification and sanctification than love. Dr. Nijay Gupta, author and professor at Northern Seminary, argues that the love of Christ takes center stage in every one of Paul's writings and thus should take center stage in our lives.

A ragtag homeless rabbi. Twelve unlearned young men who bickered about who was the best. And a high-ranking Jewish official who would stop at nothing to destroy them.
The early church faced seemingly impossible odds, yet by the end of the first century, Christianity had spread across the known world. On this special edition of Honestly, Though, Dallas Theological President Dr. Mark Yarbrough and Vice President of Communications and Community Dr. Josh Winn sit down with Rebecca Carrell to discuss the unstoppable force of the gospel and why it hasn't slowed down.
