| Race and the Kingdom (Coversation with Derwin Gray - Rebroadcast) - KR 23 | 05 Jun 2020 | 00:28:28 | |
Racial tension is at a high point.
The embodiment of the Kingdom found in the New Testament and lived out through the Church was to be a vision of unity and diversity. The Church in America, unfortunately, has remained one of the most segregated organizations instead of being a vision for unity and diversity. Pastor Derwin Gray and Transformation Church is a shining light of how the Church can be the type of diverse community it was intended to be.
Hear about Pastor Derwin’s journey of planting Transformation Church, the challenges they faced from being a multiethnic church, and steps any church can take to become a richer expression of the diverse Kingdom of God.

| What Do Bible Scholars Have to Say to Theologians? - KR 153 | 21 May 2020 | 00:33:11 | |
Theologians and Bible scholars sometimes don’t realize how they’re not interacting with each other. In this episode of Kingdom Roots, Scot introduces 5 themes he wishes theologians would consider.

| The Atonement and the Pastor (Parchman Lecture Series | Truett Seminary | Part 4) - KR 152 | 08 May 2020 | 00:44:17 | |
Is penal substitution theory the leading metaphor of atonement in the Bible?
Evangelicalism has some specific drivers that make penal substitution theory an attractive metaphor. In Scot’s fourth and final lecture in this series, he investigates what metaphors really are and how metaphors can and should help us understand the atonement. When the church takes the full message of atonement to heart, mission can help but flow.

| The Gospel and the Pastor (Parchman Lecture Series | Trueett Seminary | Part 3) - KR 151 | 17 Apr 2020 | 00:46:32 | |
How you define “the gospel,” says a lot about how you will live out your faith.
Scot unpacks how the desire to see people saved has forced evangelicalism to see the gospel in a way different from the New Testament. Most evangelical views on the gospel lead to a salvation culture and not a gospel culture. In this lecture, Scot urges pastors to foster a community of good news that the gospel creates.

| Universalism and the Pastor (Parchman Lecture Series | Truett Seminary | Part 2) - KR 150 | 03 Apr 2020 | 00:41:02 | |
Why did evangelicalism get so upset about Love Wins by Rob Bell and pay so till attention to Allah by Miroslav Volf?
Scot suggests that evangelicals have foundational beliefs concerning responding to God that goes against the grain of what universalism suggests. In this lecture, Scot compares and contrasts the texts and theories that seem to be open to universalism and the texts that seem to make judgment leading to hell a reality. What becomes clear in examining this topic is that evangelicalism had a very clear fault line that Rob Bell’s book revealed.

There is a juvenilization taking place in many places in the church and it is threatening the ability for the church to have a wisdom culture.
The church needs to move past the temptation to be relevant at all costs and focus on the value of wisdom. Paul calls his communities to value wisdom at all costs. This creates a culture that has a faithful tradition as its foundation and enables the church to move forward in mission.

The first and foremost responsibility of any pastor is to be a witness.
Paul’s example of being a witness is using his story to make the story of Christ, the gospel, important. When churches foster a community of witnessing they become living libraries of God’s Word. The world is in desperate need to hear and see the witness of transformation that Jesus does in the church.

Telling stories is fundamental to being human.
Join Scot and Chaz as they explore what it looks likes to have a culture telling the most important story in history. If a church doesn’t nurture a culture where the gospel story is allowed to form the community, then living out God’s will is near impossible. Key to the kingdom taking root now is telling the story of how the Kingdom took root then.

Buy Paul’s ‘Works of the Law ‘ in the Perspective of Second Century Reception by Matthew Thomas >> https://amzn.to/2M0S5Sn
Paul writes that we are justified by faith apart from 'works of the law', a disputed term that represents a fault line between 'old' and 'new' perspectives on Paul. Was the Apostle reacting against the Jews' good works done to earn salvation, or the Mosaic Law's practices that identified the Jewish people?
In this episode, Scot and Matthew examines how Paul's second century readers understood these points in conflict, how they relate to 'old' and 'new' perspectives, and what their collective witness suggests about the Apostle's own meaning. Surprisingly, these early witnesses align closely with the 'new' perspective, though their reasoning often differs from both viewpoints. They suggest that Paul opposes these works neither due to moralism, nor primarily for experiential or social reasons, but because the promised new law and covenant, which are transformative and universal in scope, have come in Christ.

Is Judaism a "works righteousness" religion?
This is the driving question for E.P. Sanders's study of Judaism in the first century. Sanders continues his investigation of covenant nomism and finds the Essence community of Qumran clearly reflects that they understood being God's people by election and not because of the works that they did.

The central mission of the Church is to foster a culture of christoformity.

| Philippians in the Story of God (Conversation with Lynn Cohick) - KR 119 | 01 Feb 2019 | 00:27:04 | |
Paul's letter to the Philippians has a lot to say to the present world where human feelings and emotions get hijacked by so many force. Lynn and Scot unpack how Joy is more than a mood, but a constant experience that comes from receiving one's identity from Christ.
Paul opens his heart up in some profound ways in this letter. The Kingdom takes root and joy overflows when followers of Jesus orient their life around the surpassing greatness of knowing Jesus.
