More to the Story with Andy Miller III Dr. Andy Miller III

Righteousness, Gospel, Forgiveness, Life, Cross, Faith, Grace, Fellowship, Hope, Salvation, Peace, Religion, Holiness, Love, and Witness

These are familiar terms in the Christian vocabulary, but many don’t know the original background and theological importance of these words, and how they can be life-giving for the Christian faith and life today. To access the deep meaning of these words in the theological vocabulary of the New Testament writers, Nijay Gupta has written a helpful new book thinking through the canonical, literary, and historical contexts of these words. I enjoyed this conversation Nijay! 

Nijay K. Gupta (PhD, University of Durham) is professor of New Testament at Northern Seminary. He is the author of several academic books including 1-2 Thessalonians (Zondervan Critical Introduction to the New Testament), Paul and the Language of Faith, A Beginner's Guide to New Testament Studies and has published commentaries on Colossians, Philippians, and Galatians. He is co-editor of The State of New Testament Studies and the planned second edition of the Dictionary of Paul and His Letters.

After Rich Mullins was a famous CCM musician, he decided to go back to college so he could be better equipped to serve on a Native American reservation. While in school he moved in with Jim Smith’s family. After Mullins’ tragic death in 1997, the Mullins family asked Smith to write a biography of his life. Smith produced this touching devotional biography, An Arrow Pointing to Heaven. Rich Mullins’ music had a deep impact on me. I think you will enjoy this conversation with Jim Smith.

Bishop Scott Jones is one of the first episcopal leaders to transfer from the United Methodist Church to the Global Methodist Church. As the Global Methodist Church emerges there are many questions about why and how it will function. Scott Jones’ experience as a pastor, Wesley scholar, and leader is a refreshing perspective for this fledgling denomination.
