How do I know if I am called to ministry?

Dr. Ligon Duncan

Dr. Ligon Duncan reminds us that discerning a call to ministry isn’t something you do on your own. A desire to serve is important, but it must be confirmed by wise, godly leaders in the church. Their encouragement, oversight, and affirmation help you grow and stay grounded when ministry gets hard. 

What are some common misconceptions about the Trinity?

Dr. D. Blair Smith

Dr. D. Blair Smith reminds us that the Trinity isn’t a human invention—it’s deeply rooted in the worship and life of the early church. Knowing God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit shapes every part of the Christian life, not just theological study.

In Revelation 13, what does the Mark of the Beast mean?

Dr. Thomas Keene

Dr. Thomas Keene reminds us that the mark of the beast isn’t a code to crack—it’s a symbol of allegiance. In Revelation, symbols serve the story, pointing us to the deeper contrast between the kingdom of Christ and the counterfeit kingdom that opposes him. Rather than getting lost in speculation, we’re called to see what these images reveal about who we follow.
