S3 EP21 featuring Trent Roberts: Biblical Literacy Moralistic Therapeutic Deism and Importance of Education Part 1

Welcome to the L3 Podcast! We hope this podcast will be helpful to both you and your ministry.

Today, in Part 1 of a two-part conversation, we have Trent Roberts, President of Northpoint College, joining us to discuss the critical topics of biblical literacy and the importance of education in ministry today. In a culture with unprecedented access to information, why does it seem like biblical literacy is at an all-time low? How can we, as leaders, cultivate a deeper understanding of Scripture in our congregations? Pastors Aaron and Trent tackle the challenges of ministering to a generation that often knows more about Christian culture than the biblical narratives themselves. They discuss the need to move beyond surface-level teaching, create space for questions, and embrace the growth that comes from wrestling with the whole counsel of God. They also dive into the vital role of education—both formal and lifelong—in equipping ministers with the skill sets and knowledge needed for a lifetime of effective, resilient ministry.
