    Witnessing Christ: Easter

    The Truth in Love Ministry interns—Caleb, Aaron, Ethan, and Noah—pause their Christ in the Old Testament series for a special Easter episode of the Witnessing Christ Podcast, focusing on the resurrection of Jesus Christ and what it truly accomplished.  In this episode, the interns begin with a shared foundation: both biblical Christians and Latter-day Saints agree that Jesus physically rose from the dead. The tomb was empty, Christ appeared to His disciples, and He lives today. But while there is agreement on the event itself, the conversation quickly turns to a deeper question—what did the resurrection actually accomplish?  The team contrasts the LDS understanding of the resurrection as a universal gift of immortality with the biblical teaching that Christ’s death and resurrection fully accomplish salvation. They emphasize that the resurrection cannot be separated from the cross, where Jesus paid for sin in full, and show how the empty tomb is God’s declaration that the work is finished.  In this episode, you’ll hear:   What biblical Christians and Latter-day Saints agree on about the resurrection.  Why the real question is not if Jesus rose, but what His resurrection accomplished.  The difference between resurrection as universal immortality and resurrection as completed salvation.  How the cross and resurrection work together to secure forgiveness and righteousness.  Why “It is finished” means there is nothing left for us to earn before God.  What it means to be justified—declared not guilty—through Christ’s resurrection.  Practical questions to help guide gospel conversations with LDS friends and family.  The interns also explore how the resurrection gives Christians complete confidence before God. Because Jesus lived, died, and rose again, believers are not left wondering if they have done enough. Instead, they stand forgiven, justified, and secure—knowing that Christ has already accomplished everything necessary for their salvation.   This episode reminds listeners that Easter is not just about new life in a general sense, but about a finished victory. Jesus’ resurrection is the guarantee that sin is paid for, death is defeated, and eternal life is secured for all who trust in Him.

    Witnessing Christ in the Old Testament: Pharaoh, Plagues and Passover

    The Truth in Love Ministry interns—Caleb, Ethan, and Noah—continue the Christ in the Old Testament series on the Witnessing Christ Podcast, walking through Exodus 7–18. As Latter-day Saints follow these chapters in their Come, Follow Me readings, this episode helps Christians engage those same sections while clearly pointing to the biblical gospel. In these chapters, Moses and Aaron stand before Pharaoh as God unleashes the ten plagues on Egypt, culminating in the dramatic events of the Passover. As Pharaoh repeatedly hardens his heart, God displays His power, justice, and faithfulness—ultimately delivering His people from slavery. But beneath these familiar stories lies a deeper message about the condition of the human heart and the need for divine rescue. The interns explore the tension between Pharaoh’s hardened heart and God’s sovereign action, emphasizing what Scripture teaches about sin, judgment, and God’s control over salvation. At the same time, they highlight one of the clearest pictures of Christ in the Old Testament: the Passover lamb. In this episode, you’ll hear: What Scripture teaches about Pharaoh hardening his heart—and God hardening it.The difference between biblical teaching and LDS views of agency and free will.Why all people begin with hearts hardened against God.How God’s judgment and mercy are both on display in the Exodus account.Why the Passover lamb is one of the clearest pictures of Jesus in the Old Testament.How the blood of the lamb points directly to Christ’s sacrifice on the cross.Practical questions to help guide gospel conversations with LDS friends and family.The episode also highlights how the Israelites were not saved by their obedience, but by the blood of the lamb—a powerful picture of how sinners are saved through Christ alone. Just as the destroyer passed over the homes marked by blood, so God’s judgment passes over all who are covered by the blood of Jesus, the true Passover Lamb. This episode reminds listeners that salvation does not come from human effort or choice, but from God’s gracious action. The same God who delivered Israel from Egypt has delivered us from sin, death, and judgment through Jesus Christ—the Lamb who was slain so that we might live.

    Witnessing Christ in the Old Testament: The Call of Moses

    The Truth in Love Ministry interns—Caleb, Aaron, Ethan, and Noah—continue the Christ in the Old Testament series on the Witnessing Christ Podcast, turning to the opening chapters of Exodus (1–6). As Latter-day Saints work through these chapters in their Come, Follow Me readings, this episode helps Christians walk alongside those discussions while pointing clearly to the biblical gospel.  In these chapters, Israel’s situation becomes desperate. A new Pharaoh enslaves the Israelites, orders the death of Hebrew baby boys, and tightens his grip as their numbers grow. Yet even in the midst of oppression, God is quietly preserving His promise. Moses’ life is spared, he is raised in Pharaoh’s household, and decades later God calls him from the burning bush to deliver His people from slavery.  The interns examine how this section highlights God’s holiness, human sinfulness, and the need for a true deliverer. While Moses is chosen to lead Israel out of Egypt, his hesitation, doubt, and imperfection remind listeners that he is not the ultimate hero of the story. Instead, Moses points forward to a greater deliverer—Jesus Christ—who accomplishes the perfect salvation Moses could only foreshadow.  In this episode, you’ll hear:  Why the Exodus story is ultimately about God’s faithfulness to His promises.The difference between biblical deliverance and LDS ideas of salvation.How Moses’ weakness and reluctance highlight God’s power and grace.What the burning bush teaches about God’s holiness and human sinfulness.Why true reverence comes from encountering the holy God, not from human effort.How Moses’ role as deliverer points forward to the greater deliverer, Jesus Christ.Practical questions to help guide gospel conversations with LDS friends and family. This episode reminds listeners that humanity cannot climb its way up to God. Standing before a holy God exposes our sin and our need for rescue. But the same God who called Moses to deliver Israel ultimately sent Jesus Christ—the perfect deliverer who lived for us, died for us, and rose again so that sinners could stand confidently in God’s presence.

    Witnessing Christ in the Old Testament: Joseph Pt. 2

    The Truth in Love Ministry interns—Aaron, Ethan, Noah, and Caleb—continue the Christ in the Old Testament series on the Witnessing Christ Podcast, exploring the second half of the Joseph narrative in Genesis 42–50. As Latter-day Saints study these chapters in their Come, Follow Me readings, this episode helps Christians walk alongside those discussions while pointing clearly to the biblical gospel.  In this section of Genesis, Joseph’s brothers travel to Egypt during a devastating famine, unaware that the powerful ruler they stand before is the brother they once sold into slavery. Through a series of tests, Joseph reveals his identity and ultimately offers forgiveness rather than revenge. The story builds toward a powerful reminder that God was working through every hardship—not only to preserve lives during the famine, but to preserve the promise of the Savior.  The interns examine how Joseph’s forgiveness flows from faith in God’s promise rather than from a desire for personal healing or progress. They also explore how the story ultimately centers not on Joseph as a moral example, but on God’s grace in preserving the line through which Jesus would come.  In this episode, you’ll hear:  Why Joseph chose forgiveness instead of revenge, even when he had the power to punish his brothers.The difference between biblical forgiveness and LDS ideas of forgiveness as personal progress.Why Joseph’s story is not primarily about moral example but about God’s promise.How God preserved the line of the Savior through Jacob’s family despite their sin.Why Judah—an unlikely and undeserving choice—receives the promise of the coming Messiah.How Old Testament believers lived by faith in the same promise fulfilled in Christ.Practical questions to help guide conversations with LDS friends and family about forgiveness and grace. This episode reminds listeners that the story of Joseph is ultimately about God’s faithfulness to His promise. Even through betrayal, suffering, and broken families, God was preserving the line through which Jesus would come—the Savior who pays our debt, forgives our sins, and secures the eternal inheritance promised to all who trust in Him.

    Witnessing Christ in the Old Testament: Joseph Pt.1

    The Truth in Love Ministry interns—Aaron, Ethan, and Noah—continue the Christ in the Old Testament series on the Witnessing Christ Podcast, walking through Genesis 37–41 and the beginning of Joseph’s story. As Latter-day Saints study these chapters in their Come, Follow Me readings, this episode equips Christians to use Joseph’s life to share the biblical gospel.  From sibling jealousy and betrayal to false accusation and imprisonment, Joseph’s story seems like a spiral of injustice. Yet through every twist and turn, one truth remains constant: the Lord was with Joseph. God preserves His promise—even through family dysfunction, suffering, and human sin.  The interns trace the promise of the Savior from Genesis 3 through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, showing how Joseph’s rise to power in Egypt ultimately serves a greater purpose: preserving the line through which Christ would come. What appears to be chaos is actually divine faithfulness at work.  In this episode, you’ll hear:  How Joseph’s suffering fits into God’s larger redemptive plan.Why “choosing the right” did not immediately result in earthly blessing for Joseph.The difference between biblical suffering and LDS ideas of obedience-based blessing.Why God reveals Himself—and where He promises to do so today.How Joseph’s life points forward to Christ, who suffers unjustly to save many.Comfort for Christians who suffer without knowing “why.”Practical ways to discuss revelation, suffering, and blessing with LDS friends and family. This episode reminds listeners that God’s faithfulness is not measured by present comfort. Joseph’s imprisonment did not mean abandonment, and suffering is not proof of divine displeasure. The same God who preserved Joseph preserves His gospel promise in Christ—the One who bore suffering, overcame death, and guarantees eternal joy beyond this life.

    Witnessing Christ in the Old Testament: Abraham

    The interns from Truth in Love Ministry—Aaron, Ethan, Noah, and Caleb—continue their Christ in the Old Testament series on the Witnessing Christ Podcast, walking through Genesis 18–22. As Latter-day Saints follow the Come, Follow Me reading plan, this episode helps Christians engage those same chapters and clearly see how they point to Jesus Christ. In this section of Genesis, the team explores Abraham’s intercession for Sodom and Gomorrah, Lot’s rescue from destruction, the sobering account of Lot’s family, Abraham’s repeated failures, the long-awaited birth of Isaac, and the powerful testing on Mount Moriah. Throughout it all, one theme remains clear: God’s faithfulness does not depend on human perfection. The interns wrestle honestly with difficult passages—Lot’s hesitation, Lot’s wife, Abraham’s deception, and the testing of Isaac—while highlighting the gospel thread woven through every chapter. From the mercy shown to Lot, to the substitute ram caught in the thicket, to the promised offspring through whom all nations will be blessed, the story repeatedly echoes the life, death, and resurrection of Christ. In this episode, you’ll hear: How Lot’s rescue reveals God’s mercy despite human weakness.Why righteousness is rooted in faith, not flawless behavior.How God works good even through deeply broken situations.The difference between biblical testing and LDS views of mortal probation.The powerful parallels between Isaac and Jesus on Mount Moriah.Why the ram as substitute points directly to Christ as our sacrifice.How Genesis 22 reinforces God’s unconditional promise of blessing through the promised Seed.Practical questions to help guide gospel conversations with LDS friends and family.This episode reminds listeners that the story of Abraham is not ultimately about heroic obedience, but about a faithful God who keeps His promises. From Sodom to Moriah, from Isaac’s birth to the substitute sacrifice, these chapters point forward to Jesus—the true promised Son who carries the wood, becomes the substitute, and through whom all nations are blessed.

    Witnessing Christ in the Old Testament: Abram's Righteousness

    The interns from Truth in Love Ministry—Caleb, Aaron, Ethan, and Noah—reunite on the Witnessing Christ Podcast to continue their series, Christ in the Old Testament, by turning to the story of Abram in Genesis chapters 12–17. As Latter-day Saints study this section of Scripture, this episode helps Christians walk alongside those readings and clearly see how God’s promises point forward to Jesus Christ.  In this episode, the interns focus on Abram before his name is changed to Abraham, highlighting God’s unilateral promises and the covenant that depends entirely on God’s action—not Abram’s obedience. They trace God’s repeated “I will” statements, showing how Abram is chosen not because of his faithfulness or righteousness, but purely by God’s grace.  Listeners are taken honestly through Abram’s failures—his fear, deception, and attempts to take God’s promises into his own hands—before arriving at one of the most important verses in the Old Testament: Genesis 15:6, where Abram believes the Lord, and God credits it to him as righteousness. From there, the conversation connects directly to the New Testament explanation in Romans 4, where Paul shows that Abram’s righteousness comes by faith alone, apart from works.  In this episode, you’ll hear:  Why God’s covenant with Abram is a one-sided promise rooted in grace.How Abram’s sins highlight God’s faithfulness, not Abram’s worthiness.What it means for righteousness to be credited, not earned.Why faith is not a work, but trust in God’s promise.How Romans 4 clarifies Genesis 15 for Christians today.Key differences between biblical Christianity and LDS teachings on covenants, faith, and works.Practical questions to help point LDS friends and family to Christ in this section of Genesis. This episode reminds listeners that salvation has always been God’s work. Just as Abram was declared righteous by believing God’s promise, Christians today are declared righteous through faith in Jesus Christ—the promised Seed through whom all nations are blessed.
