John Mury looks at the theology and the question of dogma. The church has a long tradition of belief and doctrine. What does this tradition mean and how does it apply to the question of “mere Christianity?” While Christians may often disagree about points of doctrine, ultimately these points have to do with the person of Jesus and how he has brought salvation to humanity. John looks at C.S. Lewis’ suggestion that these are much like experimental models: useful for exploration and understanding, but never to be confused with the reality, the truth, they model. Oh, and John also tells a great Emo Phillips joke.

John Mury, continuing our Back to Basics series, examines reality of the person of Jesus Christ. Can you ignore that Jesus claimed to be God and just follow his moral teachings? John discusses C.S. Lewis’ “trilemma” of “Liar, Lunatic, or Lord” and what it means for our understanding of Jesus and God. He also looks at the more modern objection of “legend” surrounding Christ’s divinity and how these objections are often misleading at best.
How do you deal with the problem of evil in this world? That’s the question Mike Bost asks as we continue our series, “Back to Basics”. Based on the book, Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis, Mike examines how four common worldviews answer the question of evil and how they compare to Christianity as revealed by the Bible.
