The Dead Shall Hear the Voice of God and Live
from The Bible as Literature · host The Ephesus School
Preachers often adapt themes from popular books and movies to make their sermons seem relevant for children and teens. But what happens when the content of the Bible is so nuanced that even C.S. Lewis can't capture it in a popular story? What happens when popular Christian themes are out of step with biblical meaning? Is the Bible still relevant? Can it still capture the attention of young adults? Of course it can--and maybe even especially--for those who have ears to hear. (Episode 45) ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
