Scholars and laypeople alike have stumbled over Bible footnotes about the Septuagint, the Greek translation of the Old Testament. Many wonder, What is it? Why do some verses differ from the Hebrew text? Is it important to Scripture? Join Michael as he discuss this with guests and authors, William Ross and Greg Lanier.

God’s peace, His shalom, can penetrate every aspect of your life—spiritually, mentally, physically, and emotionally. Although the word shalom appears 550 times in the Scriptures and was a constant theme in Jesus’ teachings, it is a neglected topic today. As a result, God’s peace has been elusive to so many followers of Jesus. New Testament scholar and author, Dr. Jeremiah J. Johnston joins Michael to discuss his latest book, "Unleashing Peace: Experiencing God's Shalom in your pursuit of happiness".

Michael interviews Dr. Eric Ortland about his new book, Suffering Wisely and Well: The Grief of Job and the Grace of God. Why does God allow suffering? The pain of suffering can be overwhelmingly mysterious, but the Bible does provide answers. Throughout Scripture, God allows trials in order to accomplish specific purposes in the lives of his people. When faced with suffering they experience spiritual growth; repentance from sin; or, as in the Old Testament story of Job, the chance to demonstrate devotion to God in the face of inexplicable agony. In Suffering Wisely and Well, Eric Ortlund explores different types of trials throughout Scripture, revealing the spiritual purpose for each and reassuring readers with God’s promise of restoration. The majority of the book focuses on Job, one of the most well-known yet misunderstood stories of suffering. Ortlund thoughtfully analyzes the text chapter by chapter, including the doubt of Job’s friends, God’s response to Job’s questions, and the meaning behind important

Kerby Anderson joins Michael to talk through some admittedly alarming data about current trends in Christianity, and how we can move toward a hopeful future in the church. What does the data actually say about trends in the church? Why are younger people disconnected from faith? If a new or younger believer's doctrinal theology isn't exactly orthodox (yet), does that mean they aren't saved? This is a sobering, but ultimately hopeful conversation that will inspire you to remember the simplicity of the Gospel: Christ came in the form of a human, He lived, He died, He was buried and resurrected, to accomplish for you and me what we could never do for ourselves.
