I'm Wondering..‪.‬ Dylan Curtis

As Christians we mention the word “gospel” frequently. But it seems there is a range of understanding on what the core message of the gospel is. This week we go through the cultural context and Biblical explanation of what the word “gospel” means.

Several people have asked what a pastor’s day is like. Do we only work on sermons? How often do we provide pastoral care? Are we studying the Bible at every moment? This week I share what the day looks like for a pastor.

We mention resurrection a lot in the church, but don’t always explain it. How does God resurrect us? What exactly is the resurrected life like? What about if someone has been cremated? This week we will discuss all of these things and more.

A listener recently asked what happens when a believer dies. Do we go to heaven? Do we go into a state of soul sleep until the resurrection? This week we look at the most common beliefs about life after death and what the Bible teaches.

Most Christians are familiar with Jesus’ command to bless those who curse you. What does he mean by bless and curse? Many do everything in their power to get around these words of Jesus. This week we will stop and examine deeper what bless and curse mean, as well as what Christians are called to do with this reality.

A friend recently asked what my personal church journey has been. Specifically, how I went from a charismatic non-denominational church to a Lutheran church. What I didn’t realize is how much that question would bring out. So join me as I try to not overindulge in some personal church history.
