    What if I desire other things more than God? Can I work in war and weaponry? Where did Pilate judge Jesus?

    What if you genuinely want to love God, but find yourself more excited by your work, hobbies or a good novel than by reading the Bible? Does that mean something is wrong with your faith?In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird respond to a listener wrestling with fear, assurance and what it really means to desire God. Tom offers a refreshingly different way of thinking about prayer, Scripture and ordinary human passions — including why loving your vocation or even enjoying a crime novel need not compete with loving God.They also tackle the difficult ethical question of whether Christians can work in the defence industry, asking where personal conscience, national defence and responsibility for how our work is ultimately used should meet.Finally, they turn to the trial of Jesus: where exactly did Pontius Pilate judge him, how public would the proceedings have been, and could the Gospel accounts realistically preserve what happened during that extraordinary night?Support & Subscribe👉 Support thought-provoking conversations and help keep the show going at www.premierunbelievable.com/geolink/donate💡❓Got a question for Tom?

    Should women be pastors? NT Wright on what the Bible really says

    Should women be pastors, preachers and church leaders? NT Wright and Mike Bird tackle one of the most divisive debates in the church today, responding to moves within the Southern Baptist Convention to restrict women from holding pastoral titles. Tom argues that there is “no shred of a prohibition on women being pastors” and points to Mary Magdalene and Phoebe as crucial evidence for women proclaiming, teaching and leading in the early church. Mike explores the notoriously disputed passage in 1 Timothy 2, asking whether Paul’s words make more sense against the local backdrop of Artemis worship in ancient Ephesus. Together, they challenge assumptions about “biblical manhood and womanhood”, examine the influence of culture on biblical interpretation, and ask whether some churches have made one difficult passage the controlling lens for everything else.

    Jesus as the glory of God, Do we need to rethink the Trinity, being a force for theological sanity in your Church

    How does Jesus reveal the glory of God? Is the Trinity really the best way to understand Father, Son and Holy Spirit? And what should you do when you think your church is getting the Bible wrong?In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird explore how the New Testament reveals God’s glory through Jesus and whether Christians need a better way of explaining the Trinity. Tom argues that rather than beginning with an abstract idea of God and trying to fit Jesus into it, we should look at Jesus to discover what God is truly like.They also respond to a listener who feels increasingly isolated after rejecting the dispensationalist end-times theology of his church, asking how Christians can remain biblically faithful while disagreeing with their community, with both conviction and humility.

    Do Christians Really Go to Heaven? Tom Wright Rethinks Paradise

    What if some of the Bible verses Christians use most often about heaven don’t actually mean what we think they mean? Tom Wright and Mike Bird tackle the New Testament passages that seem to challenge the idea that resurrection and new creation, rather than “going to heaven”, are the Bible’s ultimate hope. What did Jesus mean when he told the thief on the cross, “Today you will be with me in paradise”? Are the “many rooms” of John 14 really eternal mansions in heaven? And if our treasure is stored in heaven, don’t we eventually have to go there to enjoy it? Tom explains the crucial distinction between death, the intermediate state and final resurrection, and why “heaven” is better understood as God’s space rather than humanity’s final destination. This Bonus episode dives into chapter six of Tom’s latest book, God’s Homecoming. If this conversation changes how you think about heaven, send it to one person who needs to hear it.
