In this powerful episode, Jerry Robinson confronts the uneasy marriage between modern Christian Zionism and the teachings of Jesus.

Using 10 piercing questions rooted in the red letters of Scripture, Jerry invites listeners to reflect deeply on what it really means to follow the Prince of Peace.

In this first episode of our new podcast series entitled "The Cross and the Sword," Jerry Robinson asks a bold question: Who would Jesus shoot?

This episode challenges the popular belief that gun rights are God-given and takes a close look at Jesus’ teachings on violence, enemy love, and peace.

Drawing on scripture and cultural critique, Jerry invites listeners to reconsider what it truly means to follow Jesus in a world that worships guns and thefalse power that they promise.

Jesus didn’t come to tweak your life. He came to confront and overthrow the empire to make way for the Kingdom of God.

In this final episode of our "Gospel of the Kingdom" series, we get honest about what it means to follow Jesus in a world built on power, fear, violence, and domination. The Kingdom is more about allegiance than mere words. It’s about action. The Kingdom is lived, not just preached. 

It’s time to choose your King.

In this episode of the Gospel of Peace podcast, Jerry Robinson explores how the bold Kingdom message Jesus preached was slowly reduced to creeds, doctrines, and check-the-box religion.

From the early church to Constantine, we trace how a living gospel became a list of beliefs, and why recovering the Kingdom message today matters more than ever.

Jesus didn't say, "Believe in me so you can go to heaven."

He said, "The kingdom of God is at hand—repent and believe the good news."

In this episode, Jerry Robinson kicks off a new three-part series exploring the original gospel Jesus preached—the Gospel of the Kingdom.

Discover how the modern church has reduced the message to sin management and afterlife insurance, and why reclaiming the kingdom is essential to following Jesus today.

Got questions about the atonement?

In this bonus episode of The Gospel of Peace, Jerry Robinson returns to answer some of the most pressing questions that have come in since the release of our three-part series on the atonement.

Questions like:

• Doesn’t Isaiah 53:10 say it pleased the Lord to crush Jesus?
• How do you reconcile Hebrews 9:22 with the idea that God doesn’t need blood to forgive?
• Isn’t God’s justice retributive? Doesn’t sin demand punishment?
• Why do the apostles use sacrificial language at all?

And more…With clarity, humility, and a Christ-centered focus, Jerry walks us through these objections, always returning to the image of God revealed in Jesus: a God of love, mercy, restoration, and victory over sin and death.

This episode is for the honest seeker, the curious skeptic, and the follower of Jesus longing to make sense of the cross without compromising God’s goodness.

Was the cross about punishment—or victory?

In this third and final teaching in our series, Jerry Robinson explores how the cross was never about satisfying God's wrath, but about defeating the powers of sin, death, and darkness.

Drawing from Scripture and the wisdom of the early Church, this episode unpacks biblical alternatives to penal substitution, highlights the meaning of Christ’s resurrection, and reframes the atonement through the lens of love, reconciliation, and liberation.

Discover how the cross reveals God’s true character—not as a wrathful judge, but as a loving redeemer who overcomes evil with good.

If Jesus had to die, whose idea was it—God’s or ours?

Many Christians assume God required the crucifixion to satisfy divine wrath, but have you ever noticed how clearly the apostles place responsibility for Jesus’ death on humanity? 

In Acts 2, Peter says explicitly, "you put him to death." Yet many believers still think God demanded Jesus’ murder. How could the murderers of Jesus possibly be fulfilling God’s will?

In this powerful episode, Jerry Robinson invites us to carefully revisit the Scriptures. He walks listeners step-by-step through what the apostles and Jesus Himself actually said about the cross. Far from a divine act of wrath, the crucifixion becomes a powerful revelation of humanity’s rejection of perfect love—and God's extraordinary response of redemptive love.

Why did Jesus have to die?

For many of us, the answer seems simple. We’ve been told that Jesus died to pay for our sins or to take our punishment. But is that really the whole story?

In this episode, we take a fresh look at the cross and explore whether we’ve misunderstood the reason for Jesus’ death.

Was it about satisfying God’s wrath?

Or was something deeper happening?

Join me as we rethink the cross together.

Who is my neighbor?

That’s the question a lawyer asked Jesus, and His answer was nothing short of revolutionary.

In this episode of The Gospel of Peace, we dive deep into the parable of the Good Samaritan and how Jesus uses it to break down social, religious, and cultural barriers to love.

We’ll explore how true neighborly love goes beyond comfort and convenience, calling us to extend mercy even to those we consider outsiders.

The cross itself is the ultimate Good Samaritan moment as Christ rescued us when we were helpless.

Listen in and discover what it truly means to “go and do likewise.”

What if the cross of Jesus wasn’t about appeasing a wrathful God, but about exposing the futility of violence and revealing the unstoppable power of love?

In this episode of The Gospel of Peace podcast, we explore how Jesus overcame evil—not through retaliation, but through self-giving love.

The crucifixion was humanity’s ultimate act of violence, yet God’s response was forgiveness, reconciliation, and resurrection victory.

We’ll dive into what this means for us as followers of Christ, why the myth of redemptive violence crumbles at the cross, and how embracing Jesus’ way of peace can transform our lives today.

If you’ve ever wrestled with the meaning of the cross, this episode will challenge you to see it in a whole new light.

In this third episode of the Gospel of Peace podcast, entitled “Reading the Old Testament in Light of Christ,” unpack the idea that the Old Testament can only be truly understood when viewed through the lens of Jesus Christ.

If you’ve ever wrestled with the contrast between the seemingly violent God of the Old Testament and the nonviolent love of Christ, this episode is for you.

In this second episode of the Gospel of Peace podcast, titled “The God Who Forgives: How Jesus Transformed Our Understanding of Mercy,” we dive deep into one of the most powerful—and sometimes challenging—aspects of the Christian faith: forgiveness.

We explore how Jesus’ life and teachings reveal a God whose mercy knows no limits, and how we’re called to live out that same grace, even when it’s hard.

I also share some personal reflections on my own struggles with forgiveness and the journey God has taken me on.

Trust me, this is not an easy road, but it’s one that leads to true freedom and peace.

I invite you to listen, reflect, and be encouraged. Let’s walk this path of mercy together.
