It’s finally Here!

David K Bernard, to me is one of the most influential Scholars or our time.

The most recent book is ‘The Glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ’.
Love this book, in depth, interacts with the most prominent scholars and historians of Early Christianity.

Thank you for these videos!

Grateful

Thank you for this ministry. I appreciate Dr. Bernard's wisdom and knowledge when addressing these questions. I am learning how to better explain and reason the topics that are so frequently discussed when sharing the gospel.

could you guys talk about the altar/altar call and its origins? Bible verses that this originated from perhaps? A lot of churches don't have this experience.

God bless you all.
