On May 26 we started a new series exploring peace; what peace has to do with the gospel, what it means for Jesus to be the "prince of peace," and how we can be "peace makers." But exploring peace in the Bible, raises some important questions like, what do we with all the violence? Especially the violence attributed to God in the Bible.
This recording was taken from a live & in-person class at Missio. We cut many of the questions that were asked throughout class because the microphone did not record them well.
Theologian J.I. Packer famously called the Incarnation the “supreme mystery” of the gospel. Neither the mystery of his death or resurrection, but rather Christ’s entering into the world and sharing in our humanity is what C.S. Lewis called the “Central Miracle” of the Christian faith, upon which every other miracle depends. And yet we seldom talk much about how “the Word became flesh and dwelled among us.”
In our newest, How To Read the Bible class we are joined by Old Testament Scholar Dr. Brennan Breed. Dr. Breed helps us understand the nature of apocalyptic literature throughout the Bible. As we gain an understanding for this peculiar genre we're able to grasp, in a new and deeper way, what the apocalyptic literature of the Bible is saying to us today.
In this class, we were joined by Dr. Michael Gorman (professor/scholar/author) who answered some of our biggest questions about the book of Revelation.
In this class we explore how to study and read the conquest narratives of Bible through the person and work of Jesus. We believe the entire people is about Jesus even the most difficult to read parts. As we learn how to see the Bible through Jesus, everything changes. But, how do we read and make sense of the war, violence, and racialized conflict of the conquest narratives?
How do we read there Bible? How do we make sense of the strange and difficult passages about God that seem to so contradict the person of Jesus? We believe the entire Bible is about Jesus, even the horrid and offensive parts are intended to lead us towards Jesus. As we learn how to see the Bible through Jesus, everything changes.
