Theology is Fun

The Truth about Tongues


Listen Later

In this episode of Theology is Fun, Dr. Corey Abney and Dr. Ben Skaug take a deep dive into one of the most debated spiritual gifts: tongues.

From Genesis to Pentecost to 1 Corinthians, they unpack the biblical history of language, the purpose of tongues in the early church, and how modern interpretations often miss the mark.

 Along the way, they address big questions:

  • Were tongues known languages or a private “prayer language”?
  • How does the Bible distinguish between miraculous gifts and ordinary speech?
  • Is speaking in tongues a sign of being filled with the Holy Spirit?

With humor (and even a few hair jokes), Dr. Corey and Dr. Ben aim to clarify a topic often clouded by confusion. Whether you’re curious tongues, or just want solid biblical teaching, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.

📖 Key takeaway: The gospel—clear and proclaimed—is of first importance.
