On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson talk about John's account of Christ's cleansing of the temple, so called. This episode combats some misunderstandings of this text which think of Christ's message only in terms of economic reform or social justice. In truth, Christ's cleansing of the temple teaches us about the cross and sacrifice of Christ for the sin of the world.
