Send us Fan Mail Broncos, Gameboys, Doves... er uh Pigeons? Join Zac for an interview with Shane Pruitt. As they discuss how our culture has shifted to embracing a distorted version of a personalized Jesus while rejecting biblical authority, and why youth ministers must help students discover the authentic Jesus of Scripture. SHOW NOTES • Culture has shifted from accepting God-talk but rejecting Jesus-talk to accepting Jesus-talk but rejecting Bible-talk • People reshape Jesus into their own image, creating an idol with Jesus' name • The Jesus many claim to follow often aligns perfectly with their preferences and prejudices • False views of Jesus lead to incorrect evangelism, discipleship, and mission • The Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) are where we rediscover the authentic Jesus • If our understanding of Jesus never challenges us, we might be following a false version • The new "Not My Jesus" Bible study is available for both teens and adults to study together • Jesus makes the invisible God visible – to know God's heart, look to Jesus' heart Check out "Not My Jesus" Bible study from Lifeway, with free teaching videos included with each purchase. https://www.lifeway.com/en/product/not-my-jesus-teen-bible-study-book-with-video-access-P005850065 Support the show Join the community!
