  • The History of the Christian Church. (Part 27.) Finding God in the Silence. Gregory Palamas.
    Send us a textThis is a bonus episode of the latest episode of my monthly church history podcast. To binge the entire series, visit; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.comFinding God in the Silence: Gregory PalamasIn this episode of the History of the Christian Church podcast, we turn to the 14th century and meet one of the most influential voices of Eastern Christianity: Gregory Palamas. A monk, mystic, and defender of Hesychasm, Palamas taught that the path to God is found not only in theology and doctrine, but in prayer, silence, and communion with the divine. His distinction between the “essence” and “energies” of God became a cornerstone of Orthodox theology.But how should evangelical Christians view Palamas today? Can we learn from his emphasis on prayer and communion with God while still holding firmly to the sufficiency of Scripture and the finished work of Christ? Join us as we explore his life, his teaching, and why he still matters.Support the showTo listen to my monthly church history podcast, subscribe at; https://thehistoryofthechristianchurch.buzzsprout.com For an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

  • 1 Corinthians – A Review of the Complete Book.
    Send us a textWelcome back, friends. Today, we’re wrapping up our series on 1 Corinthians with what I’m calling “A Book Review.” If there’s any church in the New Testament that feels like it could be dropped right into the modern world, it’s the church at Corinth. Because of the issues they were facing then? They’re the very same issues the church faces today. The Balance of GrayFaith That Challenges. Conversations that Matter. Laughs included.
