In this episode of the Shepherd's Study Podcast, host Tim Miller sits down with Dr. Chuck Lawless, senior professor of evangelism and missions, dean of doctoral studies, and vice president of spiritual formation at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary. They dive into the critical topic of spiritual warfare, exploring its biblical foundations, practical implications, and the importance of equipping believers to stand firm in God’s armor. Dr. Lawless shares his personal journey into studying spiritual warfare, offers insights on the balance between acknowledging the enemy and focusing on God’s sovereignty, and emphasizes the role of discipleship in preparing Christians for the battle. From Genesis to Revelation, they trace the storyline of spiritual warfare and discuss how the church can effectively engage in this ongoing conflict through preaching the gospel and living in obedience to Christ.Books by Dr. Chuck Lawless on Spiritual Warfare:Spiritual Warfare in the Storyline of Scripture: A Biblical, Theological, and Practical Approach (co-authored with Dr. William F.
