Passover, Sukkot, Shavuot, Hanukkah (Jesus celebrated). Not salvation issue but is it a loss?7:55 Do you think biblical inerrancy should be a central or peripheral doctrine for Christians? 16:13 Are Christians who use Social Media or books to call out fellow Christians violating Matthew 18 about having private conversations first? 20:32 We have friends whose child is trans but say they do not have gender dysphoria. Is this common? I don't remember you ever addressing this in your writing. 22:33 Can you please put the death knell on dispensationalism and rapture theology?! Would you call it a heresy or a deception?! 26:17 Any ideas/strategies for campus ministry staff to engage with non-believing LGBTQ students well? 34:48 I’ve read that Rahab plays a subversive role in Joshua, though it’s not explicit. What safeguards ensure this reading stems from the text, not modern agendas? 39:09 What are your thoughts on Christian missionaries evangelizing a group then insisting the group adapt to their cultural values e.g. modesty/how much they wear 43:55. What are your thoughts on Christian couple traveling alone before marriage? Should they care about perception even if they’re not sleeping together? 47:12 Can I be saved if I believe gay marriage is wrong in God’s eyes but still choose to marry someone of the same sex? 50:12 Conditional Immortality: I've never heard you point out the duality of Rev 20:10 vs 21:8. Same punishment, very different results. Why not? Seems vital. 52:41 When reading church history, do you sometimes feel discouraged or unsettled (or maybe you feel encouraged)?
