Cold Gold: Volume 1 Jun 28, 2016

Show notes

Every episode of The Debrief kicks off with a cold open that comes straight out of the conversations that happen before we start recording that week. But every time we pick out our favorite (a process we've affectionately termed "mining for cold gold"), many other great moments get left behind in the vault. This week we're taking advantage of summer travel schedules and bringing you 30 minutes of outtakes from our recordings so far!

When Jesus rose from the dead, he hung out on earth for 40 days. What did he do that whole time? And what did he mean when he said his followers would get baptized with the Holy Spirit? And did rising from the dead stop people from wondering if maybe Mary made that whole virgin birth thing up? Pastor Matt Brown unpacks all this and more as we walk through the first chapter of Acts.

Pastor Matt Brown talks through Luke 24 and why Jesus seems to be so tricky, what his return means for us and what exactly Luke is trying to get across in his gospel.
