In this conversation, Michael and Dr. Bock discuss:
“The core theme of Luke-Acts is to say that God’s plan to bring all the nations into a restored relationship with God was part of His program when He called out Abraham in Genesis, and we’re seeing the working out of that still today.”

Dr. Mark Chavalas, Dr. Wendy Widder, and Dr. Kevin Zuber join Michael to wrap up The Big Book—Cover to Cover with a discussion about the value of studying and understanding scripture as a whole, from Genesis to Revelation.
Dr. Mark Hitchcock joins Michael to discuss the complex and valuable book: Revelation.
It’s remarkable to step back on this Big Book and see that it begins and ends with connections that are impossible to ignore. In this episode, Michael teaches an overview of the book of Revelation.
