#76 WHY THE GOSPELS SKIP 18 YEARS OF JESUS’ LIFE + Dr. Darrell Bock

What was Jesus doing before His public ministry began?

Why don’t we know anything about His teenage years?

Why do you think Scripture is mostly silent about Jesus’ childhood and teenage years? Was that intentional — or just lost to history?

Matthew Halsted is the author of Paul and the Meaning of Scripture: A Philosophical-Hermeneutic Approach to Paul’s Use of the Old Testament in Romans. This book takes a look at the (often creative) ways St. Paul interpreted Old Testament texts by drawing on the insights of German philosopher Hans-Georg Gadamer. His latest is a popular-level book that challenges some commonly-held American evangelical ideas about eschatology. It’s called The End of the World as You Know It: What the Bible Really Says about the End Times (And Why It’s Good News). He's currently in the throes of other writing projects—the details of which he is excited to share sometime in 2026.

His educational background includes degrees in international studies and philosophy, as well as a PhD in philosophical hermeneutics/biblical studies (London School of Theology/Middlesex University). He had the privilege of working at Eternity Bible College, where he get to teach amazing students alongside fantastic colleagues. He is also an Anglican priest.

What do exegesis and eisegesis mean in plain language?

What if the way we often read the Bible actually says more about us—our culture, our assumptions—than it does about God?

Have you ever quoted a Bible verse—on a coffee mug, in your Instagram bio, or to encourage a friend—only to later find out it doesn’t actually mean what you thought it meant?

George Grant has started a lot of things and somehow or another he has even managed to finish a few of them. Currently, he is the

Pastor Emeritus of Parish Presbyterian Church in Franklin, Tennessee, where he also serves as the director of the King’s Meadow

Study Center, the coordinator of the Chalmers Scholarship Fund, professor of apologetics and church history at Birmingham

Theological Seminary and New Geneva International Seminary, and chancellor of both Franklin Classical School and

Bannockburn College. He has planted four churches, established a fistful of schools and co-ops along with two colleges,

accumulated a bottom drawer full of academic degrees, and is the author of enough out-of-print books to keep half the garage

sales in the South fully stocked. But, by his own testimony, his greatest accomplishment is his ongoing role as husband of one,

father of four, and grandfather of nine (and counting). His books, innumerable podcasts, a variety curriculum packages, and a host of other resources are available at

#65 Dr. Joseph Miller's Response to Dr. Boyd's View on Open Theism

Why do you think open theism appeals to modern Christians?

How do you define omniscience and omnipotence—and how are they connected?

If God already knows what we’ll choose, are we really free?

Kevin J. Vanhoozer (Ph.D., Cambridge University) is Research Professor of Systematic

Theology at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. Previously he served as Senior Lecturer in

Theology and Religious Studies at the University of Edinburgh, Scotland (1990-98) and as

Blanchard Professor of Theology at the Wheaton College Graduate School (2009-2012).

He is the author of twelve books, including The Drama of Doctrine, Faith Speaking

Understanding: Performing the Drama of Doctrine and Biblical Authority after Babel:

Retrieving the Solas in the Spirit of Mere Protestant Christianity and, most recently, Mere

Christian Hermeneutics: Transfiguring What it Means to Read the Bible Theologically – all four

named Christianity Today Theology Books of the Year (2006, 2015, 2017, 2024).

In 1999 he was featured on the cover of Christianity Today, and in 2015 was the subject of a

feature article by Wesley Hill in the same magazine. He has lectured in various countries on four

continents. In 2017, he chaired the steering committee and drafted A Reforming Catholic

Confession to mark the 500 th anniversary of the Reformation. He served as a member of the

Theology Working Group that produced a paper on hermeneutics for the Lausanne 2024 Seoul

Statement and is currently theological mentor of the Augustine Fellowship (Center for Pastor

Theologians), Senior Fellow of the C. S. Lewis Institute, and a Trustee of Westmont College. He

is presently at work on a three-volume systematic theology.

He met his wife Sylvie, author of The Art of Living in Season: A Year of Reflections for

Everyday Saints (IVP, 2024), while serving as a missionary in France, and together they have

two adult daughters (and ten PhD students). He is an amateur classical pianist and serious reader,

and finds that music and literature help him integrate academic theology, imagination, and

spiritual formation.
