My friend and colleague Brad Littlejohn has a new book coming out, 'Called to Freedom: Retrieving Christian Liberty in an Age of License': https://amzn.to/40xaMTR. Within this superb short book, B pushes us to think clearly about an issue behind so many others: what is freedom? As our thinking on this is clarified, problems in a host of downstream areas that have been polluted by bad notions of freedom may be considerably relieved.

Dive into the fascinating world of biblical hermeneutics as it intersects with the Advent season. The discussion critiques narrow interpretations and emphasizes the importance of historical context alongside contemporary relevance. It also explores the dynamic process of understanding scripture through time, encouraging a spirit of anticipation for deeper revelations. By contrasting spatial and temporal metaphors, the conversation invites listeners to rethink their approach to Holy Scriptures.
