  • Brilliant!

    I can’t get enough of listening to this podcast. The depth and breadth of Dr. Montgomery’s knowledge of the Bible is astounding, and he is an excellent communicator. I especially enjoy the call-in radio show — not just for his answers, but also for his witty interactions with the callers. But what I don’t understand is, why isn’t his name familiar to all of Christendom? Dr. Montgomery — holder of five Ph.D.s! — is the best modern theologian that the world seemingly has never heard about. I’m s... more

  • Faith and reason

  • A Champion of the Gospel

    Full disclosure: I publish many of Dr. Montgomery’s books, but this podcast is amazing and a bit of a blast from the past. I used to listen to Dr. Montgomery’s radio show of the same name back in the 80’s. Expertly engineered, this show is a pleasure in the listening. It’s good to hear Dr. Montgomery heading “once more into the breach” of broadcasting. Also having a classic version of the podcast with the broadcasts from way back when not only gives me nostalgia but a benchmark for how well Dr. ... more

Episode # 145 "Apologetics and Science" Part 10

Episode # 144 "Apologetics and Science" Part 9
Q: Isn't the scientific method limited to simply the material?

Q: What do you say to the adherent of another religion who buys all of the historical arguments for the things that the evidence does point toward that Jesus really was raised from the dead?
Dr. Montgomery argues that one should accept the explanation from Jesus, as he experienced the event, rather than relying on interpretations from a distance.
COT-Classics Episode # 127 Reformation Tour 1996 Tape # 23 "Modern Theology: Bane Or Blessing Part 2"
Q: Can you explain where Dietrich Bonhoeffer fits in in terms of neo-orthodoxy and anything that can be learned in terms of both problems and any insights he may have added in terms of theology?
Bonhoeffer's earlier writings are more valuable as he shifted from a Barthian theologian to a more secular viewpoint during his imprisonment.
