Bart Campolo was kind enough to explain his experience in being interviewed for AG2: Christ Crucified. Please pray for Bart, and that this could be used to encourage others to dialogue where there is disagreement about the gospel.

Progressive Christianity is no friend of Penal Substitutionary Atonement. They flip the truth that God is love to be "Love is God". In doing this, they cancel anything in Scripture that speaks of God's wrath against sin. Progressive Christians need to be asked, "Is the Bible God's Word or not?" B...

But if you think about it, those who promote this alternative dogma that “all paths lea...

On this program, the hosts interact with a number of man-on-the-street interviews concerning the nature and meaning of faith.
