400-408 – John Stonestreet, Executive Director of Summit Ministries (summit.org) for the past 10 years in Colorado Springs, National Director of Strategic Partnerships for the Chuck Colson Center for Christian Worldview, and host of The Point (thepointradio.org), a daily national radio program that helps jumpstart our minds by "engaging real life in real time from a Christian worldview."  Check out Summit's great Worldview Chart here, or as a pdf.

• The "Breaking the Spiral of Silence" DVD is now available at Breakpoint (here), recorded from this past weekend's Wilberforce event.

• Even the most liberal liberals concede Galatians was written about A.D. 49.  Since, Gal 2:1 records Paul's first meeting with Peter and James 14 years earlier, this places Paul in Jerusalem for his theology exam around A.D. 35!  This means that within 2-5 years after the resurrection Paul learned the early creed "Jesus died, was buried, and rose again on the third day."

413-423 – John Stonestreet,

428-438 – John Stonestreet,

443-452 – John Stonestreet, When did you actually believe the resurrection took place?

458-508 – Phil Cooke, is a really unique mix – a working Hollywood producer with a Ph.D. in Theology (philcooke.com).  He's produced media in over 40 countries, and along the way he's been shot at, fallen out of a helicopter, survived two military coups, and been threatened with time in an African prison.  Through his Cooke Pictures in Burbank, he's designed media to effectively tell the story of some of the largest nonprofit organizations and leaders in the world amid our changing, disrupted culture.  His 2008 Branding Faith: Why Some Churches and Nonprofits Impact Culture and Others Don't (Amazon) changed the way nonprofits use the media to tell their story.  And, now, in his new book, Jolt: Get the Jump on a World That's Constantly Changing (joltyourlife.com, Amazon), he shares some of his secrets for making today's culture of disruption and change work for individuals.  And, Phil's new book One Big Thing: Discovering What You Were Born To Do is coming out in July.

558-608 – It's Easter Week, which means it's time to – once again – attempt to replace the "irrelevant, unknowable and objective" real Jesus of History, with the latest "diluted, mystical, non-divine" subjective – and therefore fictional – Christ of Faith.  This "new and improved" Jesus never did miracles, never talked about homosexuality or abortion, never condemned other religious traditions, and would have been the perfect secular, American Progressive.  Andrew Sullivan writes the cover story for the current issue of Newsweek, which has a hipster Jesus and the title "Forget the Church, Follow Jesus."

• Billy Hollowell (Blaze, 4/2/2012) JESUS CHRIST GRACES THE COVER OF NEWSWEEK.

• Andrew Sullivan (Daily Beast, 4/2/2012) Christianity in Crisis:  Christianity has been destroyed by politics, priests, and get-rich evangelists. Ignore them, writes Andrew Sullivan, and embrace Him.

612-623 – • Even the most liberal liberals concede Galatians was written about A.D. 49.  Since, Gal 2:1 records Paul's first meeting with Peter and James 14 years earlier, this places Paul in Jerusalem for his theology exam around A.D. 35!  This means that within 2-5 years after the resurrection Paul learned the early creed "Jesus died, was buried, and rose again on the third day."
