In this sermon on 1 Corinthians 1:18-2:16, Eric Alexander delves into the power and wisdom of God as contrasted with human wisdom. He focuses on how the message of the cross is perceived differently by those who are being saved and those who are perishing. Alexander explores Paul’s insistence on the Spirit’s role in understanding God’s wisdom, emphasizing spiritual discernment over worldly knowledge.
Why Do So Many Young People Lose Their Faith at College?
It’s often because they’re just not ready. They may have grown up in solid Christian homes, been taught the Bible from a young age, and become faithful members of their church youth groups. But are they prepared intellectually?
New Testament professor Michael Kruger is no stranger to the assault on faith that most young people face when they enter higher education, having experienced an intense period of doubt in his freshman year. In Surviving Religion 101, he draws on years of experience as a biblical scholar to address common objections to the Christian faith: the exclusivity of Christianity, Christian intolerance, homosexuality, hell, the problem of evil, science, miracles, and the Bible’s reliability.
