Contemporary evangelicals have built a "salvation culture" but not a "gospel culture." Evangelicals have reduced the gospel to the message of personal salvation. Scot makes a plea for us to recover the old gospel as that which is still new and still fresh.

The atonement provides rich and vibrant images that can and should shape the life of Christians and the church.

Over the centuries the church developed a number of metaphors, such as penal substitution or the ransom theory, to speak about Christ’s death on the cross and the theological concept of the atonement. Too often Christians have held to the supremacy of one metaphor over against the others. Learn how to plumb the rich theological depths of the atonement and the purpose they can serve in our churches.

What really were the dynamics of the first Christmas? Hallmark and Santa Clause have all but totally hijacked the Christmas season. When we really investigate the true story of Christmas we find a story dripping with scandal, surrender, sacrifice and social revolution.

The Church is currently in the season of Advent where it is awaiting the coming of Jesus into the world. If the Church is to let the Kingdom take root then it will have to embrace and be encouraged by the reality of how the real Christmas Story took root.

The Incarnation Taking Root - KR 74 by Scot McKnight

How do you respond to human need?

Imagination is at the center of Jesus’ Kingdom taking root. In the parable of the sheep and the goats Jesus invites his followers to imagine the depths of Jesus’ love and the importance for that love to be present in His followers. To follow Jesus as King means to meet human need with compassion like Jesus.

What you will find is that being a sheep is the most incredible journey one could ever embark.

What is the church supposed to be?

The church is God’s world-changing social experiment of bringing unlikes and differents to the table to share life with one another as a new kind of family. When this happens we show to the world what love, justice, peace, reconciliation, and life together is designed by God to be. The church is God’s show-and-tell for the world to see how God wants us to live as a family.

Teaching your church how to read the Bible may be the most powerful way to equip a community to become like Jesus.

It is so easy to tame the Bible to say what we want it to say. More often than not, we clip the wings of the Bible’s message instead of letting it soar and challenge us to climb to new heights with God. Learn from one of today’s leading New Testament Scholars how to teach your church how to read the Bible. There is no telling the places God will take your community.
