  10 Essential Truths About Forgiveness Every Christian Should Know 20.10.2026 1h 15m

  I share the unexpected personal journey on forgiveness—and why studying this topic has proved to be one of the most challenging of my three-decade career. Rather than jumping straight into the debates about forgiveness, I lay out a “mere forgiveness model”: ten essential beliefs about forgiveness that I think Bible-believing Christians can widely affirm. This foundational teaching aims to bring clarity, reduce online division, and create common ground before we explore the main areas of in-house disagreement.

  4 Views on the Supernatural; Why I Don't Trust 'Discernment Culture' on YouTube 06.10.2026 1h 2m

  I explain four different perspectives on the supernatural and the miraculous. Then I share some thoughts about why I am wary of discernment culture on Christian YouTube.

  Breaking My Silence About the NAR w/BSSM Alumni John Davison 30.09.2026 2h 21m

If you were there, if you loved it, or if you love someone who is still there, this is for you.
