We have a few more interviews from the contributors of Don’t Call It a Comeback: The Same Evangelical Faith for a New Day. Today we’ll hear from Ben Peays, Jay Harvey and Russell Moore.
Ben Peays is the Executive Director of The Gospel Coalition. Ben is married to Lynae and they have three children. His chapter is called “New Birth: ‘You Must Be Born Again.'”
What does Jesus mean when he says, “You must be born again”?
Jay Harvey, Senior Pastor of the Evangelical Presbyterian Church of Newark, DE. He is married to Melody and they have four children. Jay writes the chapter titled, “Justification: Why the Lord Our Righteousness Is Better News Than the Lord Our Example.”
Some people may find debates over justification to be rather esoteric. What do you think are the practical implication of getting the doctrine of justification right (or wrong)?
Russell Moore is Dean of the School of Theology, Senior Vice-President for Academic Administration, and Professor of Christian Theology and Ethics at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He also serves as a preaching pastor at the Highview Baptist Church in Louisville, Kentucky. He is married to Maria and they have four sons. Russell pens the chapter titled “Kingdom: Heaven after Earth, Heaven on Earth, or Something Else Entirely?”
The kingdom is a huge theme in the Bible, and yet it can be difficult to define. How would you explain the kingdom of God to a 15-year-old?
