Are you looking for a biblically-grounded albeit easy-to-read introduction to theology? Well, look no further, because I’m excited to announce the publication of Pastor Will Barlow’s book, Explore What We Believe. He goes through what the Bible teaches about God, humanity, covenants, the kingdom of God, Jesus, salvation, Israel, the church, the spirit of God, the spiritual realm, death, and immortality. He also includes appendices on foreknowledge, time periods, and baptism.
Although you can certainly read this book on your own and benefit from it, Barlow designed Explore What We Believe as a discipleship tool for two or three people to work through together. This is perfect for helping Christians of other traditions to learn about what WE believe. It’s also ideal for training your teenagers in the faith.
In this interview I ask Barlow about the content of the book and how he sees it being used.

Hi Sean and Will, thanks for the informative episode. I’m planning on attending the UCA conference in London and I know many Christadelphians will attend as well. Recently I found out they apparently hold the belief that Christ died on a stake rather than a cross. Also, a few weeks ago a JW was at the door. Friendly guy and we had a good chat, and he also mentioned this same belief. I had heard of it before but never really dug into it, and it seems to have to do with a reading of the Greek. I just listened to this episode on “what we believe”, and since you are fairly proficient in Greek, I thought why not ask you about this subject. I don’t really mind people having a different understanding of the shape of the wood, but regardless, I am interested in knowing where this difference stems from. Do you know anything about it and why do you believe what you believe about this subject (which I’m assuming you think it to be a cross like most Christians)?
Thanks again, Mark
