The Quiet Reformation

“We might think that God wanted simply obedience to a set of rules: whereas He really wants people of a particular sort.”― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. ― Apostle Paul, Galatians 5

PART 1 / 2

[1:10] Introducing Bonnie O’Neil, Executive Director of Alpha Mid Atlantic

[2:20] Christian identity involves mission, being sent, being the priesthood of all believers

[6:00] How do we handle the word evangelize in our current culture

[7:20] Sin is primarily the broken relationship with the Father, not simply moral failure. The Crucifixion: Understanding the Death of Jesus Christ by Flemming Rutledge

[9:15] Jesus preached the Gospel even BEFORE the cross and crucifixion

[11:10] The Gospel includes substitution, Christ’s life for mine, but it is not a cold-hearted transaction

[14:20] The ear of our culture right now is not concerned with what is true or right, but what's functionally positive, what is good. Models of outreach change

[19:15] Because of cultural polarization, many are scared to go into deeper conversations with others, so it's harder to get to spiritual conversations

PART 2 / 2

[0:05] Jumping back in with Dr. Nijay Gupta

[0:50] Growing up in a Christian environment that was serious, but also very sterile.

[2:45] God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:8)

[4:40] Love involves wrapping our whole self around someone. Hate involves creating a distance or barriers between yourself and another. To love your enemies, means to actually care about them.

[8:25] “I have decided to stick to love...Hate is too great a burden to bear.” Martin Luther King, Jr.

[9:05] Miroslav Volf - Religion and Ethics Newsweekly

[10:53] The mechanisms are important regarding atonement, but what is more important is the motivation.

[13:15] "The most profound thought I have ever known is the simple truth: Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so." Karth Barth

[13:50] The problem with pastors today is their over familiarity with the Bible.

[15:40] Bible Reading should not be about just information but about formation with a disposition that expects to hear from God.

[18:40] May God turn our hearts to Him in faith, hope, and love.

PART 1 / 2

[0:40] Introducing Dr. Nijay Gupta

[2:08] The goal of theological interpretation is knowing God and being known by God; it’s hard to study the Bible neutrally as “just an academic”.

[3:05] Love is at the heart of Paul’s theology. It’s not just an addendum related to ethics.

[4:42] The New Testament Commentary Guide: A Brief Handbook for Students and Pastors

[7:10] I like to take these big lofty things that academics are talking about, and bring them to busy pastors and lay people who can’t wade through a 700 page book.

[10:03] We all know we should stop doing the bad thing but then we realize we’re part of systems and habits and behaviors and families that make it more difficult than to just stop sin. 

[11:30] Practical Theology

[12:40] The internet has brought us a lot of information. But the challenge is ALL the opinions of everybody ALL right in front of you. It’s a cacophony of learning.

[16:45] How do you respect someone you really disagree with? Philippians 4:2-3 - I plead with Euodia and I plead with Syntyche to be of the same mind in the Lord. Yes, and I ask you, my true companion, help these women since they have contended at my side in the cause of the gospel, along with Clement and the rest of my co-workers, whose names are in the book of life.
