Are we living in a simulation? That’s a question looked at in a recent study, and we briefly discuss the true Author and Director of all things before going through Mark 3, seeing Jesus heal on the Sabbath, a short summary of his ministry, his calling of the twelve, an “eternal sin,” and a reimagined family.

On today’s episode we talk to Dr. Gavin Ortlund, who is the Senior Pastor of First Baptist Church of Ojai in Ojai, CA. We talk about how math and music point us toward theism, retrieving historical theology, and a variety of other topics that he has discussed on his new YouTube channel Truth Unites and in his books.
We loved talking with Dr. Ortlund. Whether you are exploring the Christian faith for the first time, seeking different apologetics arguments for God, or just interested in how to better know God through Christ, this episode is for you.

On today’s episode we talk to Dr. Patrick Schreiner of Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary about his book that came out in late July, The Ascension of Christ: Recovering a Neglected Doctrine. We chat about what got him interested in Jesus’ ascension, Old Testament connections to the event, and how the ascension affects our mission in the world and our conversations with Catholic friends. If you are wondering what the ascension of Christ has to do with the rest of Scripture and what it means for your life today, this episode is for you.

We read “the beginning of the gospel of Jesus Christ” (1:1) and discuss the first chapter of Mark’s Gospel, ranging from the Old Testament framework of the first few verses to Jesus’ baptism, temptation, and early ministry.
Now after John was arrested, Jesus came into Galilee, proclaiming the gospel of God, and saying, “The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the gospel.” (Mark 1:14-15)
Come back Thursday for our first interview of the fall!

Thank you for joining us as we kick off season 2! In this episode we begin thinking about the Gospel of Mark – asking and answering, who wrote the Gospel according to Mark? What are its major themes? What happened between the Old and New Testaments? How should we think about the kingdom of God? Next Monday we will jump into Mark 1.
Join us Thursday for our first theology episode of this fall! Next week we will release our first interview for this season as well. As in season 1, we will be diving into our book of the Bible on Mondays and sharing an interview or theological discussion on Thursdays.

On this bonus episode we discuss our time in college, our hopes for this podcast and more. Our original Intro episode was just four minutes long, so we hope this provides more insight into who we are. Thank you for listening!
Season 2 will begin on October 5th. We are soon recording three interviews for this upcoming season and are excited to dive into the Gospel of Mark with everyone.
