Is Jesus the Word of God?
John 1:1 (with Sean Barnette)
Christians usually associated “The Word of God” as another name for the Bible, but in the poetic beginning to John’s Gospel, he uses the title to refer to Jesus. When we start to apply our modern understanding of what “words” are, troubling questions begin to emerge. If we can make up words and change their meanings, what truth can we actually find in “The Word of God”?
In this episode, Joel sits down with rhetorician Dr. Sean Barnette to explore the biblical “Word”, contemporary rhetorical thought, and how both can work together to draw us closer to God.
