We’re briefly stepping away from the book of Acts this week to consider how we know any of the things we’re reading about in the New Testament ever happened. There’s solid, secular, historical evidence, but it takes a minute to explain, so I decided to do a short series dealing with that topic. How do […]

The Ten Minute Bible Hour’s been up and running for two months so I thought it would be good to say thanks to everyone who’s been watching and subscribing. It also seemed like a good idea to talk a little bit about what I’m going for and not going for with the show. Then after […]
Few things paint a more complete picture of what people really believe than how they handle their stuff. People like stuff and go to great lengths to protect it. So what would it take for a whole bunch of people to sell their stuff, give away control of the proceeds, and live in community with […]

Peter just healed a guy who’d been crippled since forever, and naturally the guy is pretty excited about that. While the healed man jumps around and celebrates, Peter seizes the opportunity to tell the gawking onlookers about God’s continued patience and forgiveness toward all of them even though they killed Jesus. In addition to that […]
Episode 11 is about a crippled beggar who got dumped outside the temple every morning to beg. Peter and John are broke, but they get his attention anyway and tell him they’ve got something better than money. Normally that would be a lead in to a direct marketing pitch, but in this case what they […]
In the second half of this two-part episode we’ll hear about how the people who witnessed the Day of Pentecost respond to Peter’s call to repent, and we’ll consider a day of freakish growth in the early church. Also featuring DC Talk, Wesley Snipes (not the one from 30 Rock), and a sneak preview of […]
