This is a very important topic to address. I am glad @gavinortlund chose to make this really great covering of the issue!
I’ve said for years: if Jesus writes the sheet music of Christianity we see Paul playing it beautifully. Paul and Jesus aren’t at odds, they’re in lock step.

Really appreciated Matthew's thoughtful review. We are going to have a chat about our disagreements about Christianity and it will come out on YouTube next week. Check out his substack!
Why Christianity Makes Sense by @gavinortlund is my new go-to book to give to non-Christians. It is readable and accessible, efficient and expansive, and rationally and emotionally compelling. Highly recommend.

In times of trouble, the Lord is a stronghold. When the storms around us rage, we can find God to be a stable refuge. Happy thought.
"The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord; he is their stronghold in the time of trouble" (Psalm 37:39).
Could ordinary life be pointing to something more? Dr. @gavinortlund joins me to explore that possibility & the ideas behind his brand-new book, 'Why Christianity Makes Sense: A Book About Jesus, the Mysteries of the World, and the Longings in Your Heart'.
