Stephen McAlpine | When You Became the Bad Guy | Gospelbound

At some point, Christians were viewed by many in the West as annoying, perhaps prudish, even self-righteous. Sometimes Christians set themselves as an example of holiness that the world could not or did not want to attain. To be called “holier than thou” was common. But those days are long gone, says Stephen McAlpine, author of the new book [Being the Bad Guys: How to Live for Jesus in a World That Says You Shouldn’t](https://www.thegoodbook.com/being-the...​), published by The Good Book Company. McAlpine is a pastor, blogger, and ex-journalist who lives in Perth, Australia. He’s written some of the most provocative and creative commentary on this cultural moment that I’ve seen. And that’s why I was eager to read this book and talk with him for Gospelbound.

What Does the Bible Say About Gender? (with Alastair Roberts)

British theologian Alastair Roberts joins me to talk about the Bible and gender. What does the Bible have to say about it? How should we approach reading scripture to gain an understanding of gender? We will discuss everything from creation to the genders of sacrificial animals to stories about husbands and wives to the New Testament household codes. Time permitting, we will also discuss the interaction of contemporary debates around gender and social class. And potentially ask Alastair to explain some "hard passages" of scripture. Alastair's writings can be found at: https://alastairadversaria.com/​ His podcasts, including daily reflections in scripture, can be found at: https://adversariapodcast.com/​ He is also the co-author of Echos of Exodus: https://www.amazon.com/Echoes-Exodus-...

Making Sense of the Ravi Zacharias Scandal

After a team of investigators hired by Ravi Zacharias International Ministries recently announced that they had uncovered significant evidence of sexual misconduct by Ravi Zacharias, many of Ravi's fans are confused, angry, and devastated by the allegations. But there's an important lesson to be learned here, one the church can no longer continue to ignore. Ravi's final message to the world may be his most important. David Wood discusses the issue.

How should we pray when natural disasters strike?

Social-Distancing Week #2 "The Love of God"

It's Valentine's Day season and you'll hear the word love repeated over and over again but what does it really to love someone? Most cultural usages of love our selfish and shallow. We need to look to Jesus to see love defined and learn how we can become people who love like Jesus. Join us we open to 1 John 4:7-21 and learn about the origins, implications and demonstrations of love seen in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.

The Dangers of a Diet Based on Digital Junk Food

Solomon prayed for wisdom, and the Lord granted his request. Oh, how we need more Solomons in our day! At least the early Solomon, before all the foreign wives. Brett McCracken is here to help with his new book, [The Wisdom Pyramid: Feeding Your Soul in a Post-Truth World](https://www.amazon.com/Wisdom-Pyramid...​). Brett works as director of communications and senior editor for arts and culture with The Gospel Coalition. You may also know him from his excellent earlier books, especially [Uncomfortable: The Awkward and Essential Challenge of Christian Community](https://www.amazon.com/Uncomfortable-...​), which I strongly recommend. The Wisdom Pyramid is like the food pyramid, only for the health of our souls when it comes to our media diet. I have a hard time thinking of anything more urgently needed for the church than men and women saturated in Scripture, rooted in their local church, and amazed by the wonder of God’s creation. This is the lean protein we need in a world pushing Skittles and Doritos. Brett joined me on Gospelbound to discuss social media, books we disagree with, what makes the internet different, and more.

Who Was Saint Valentine?

You’re in a conversation and someone asks, “Where did Valentine’s Day come from?” What would you say? Every 14th of February we celebrate Valentine’s Day by exchanging cards, going out for candlelit dinners, and sharing special moments. Though the holiday is now primarily focused on romantic love, it originated as a feast day for a Christian saint. Although there are varying accounts of his life, there is consensus regarding a basic outline. So the next time someone asks you who St. Valentine was, here are three things to remember: First, Valentine prayed for God to heal the blind daughter of a Roman judge, and God did. Second, Valentine was arrested a second time because he evangelized pagans and helped Christians. Third, Valentine was martyred on February 14th.
