In this episode of Help Me Teach the Bible, I talked with David Helm, lead pastor of Holy Trinity Church in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago and executive director of The Charles Simeon Trust, which offers workshops on biblical exposition both nationally and internationally. He is also a Council member of The Gospel Coalition.

Helm admits most Bible teachers find the circular argument style of John challenging to grasp, but his vivid metaphors such as “light,” rich words such as “abide,” and often-misunderstood concepts such as “antichrist,” have made 1 John his current favorite book. (As with most teachers, his favorite book is usually the book he is currently teaching through.)

Resources on 1, 2, and 3 John recommended by David Helm:

Is there enough evidence for us to believe the Gospels?

In an age of faith deconstruction and skepticism about the Bible’s authority, it’s common to hear claims that the Gospels are unreliable propaganda. And if the Gospels are shown to be historically unreliable, the whole foundation of Christianity begins to crumble.
But the Gospels are historically reliable. And the evidence for this is vast.
