YouTube description

Few issues are of greater importance to theology and the life of the church than the question of the nature of the Lord's Supper/the Eucharist. Is Christ present in the Eucharist? And if so, how? Questions like this have not only divided Protestants and Catholics, but they have divided Protestants from the very beginning of the Reformation. In this video, Dr. Gavin Ortlund and Dr. Brett Salkeld engage in a dialogue on the Eucharist, focusing on questions of Christ's presence, the nature and circumstances of this, and the question of Eucharistic sacrifice. It's a delightful conversation, and I hope you learn something new!

About Gospel Simplicity:
Gospel Simplicity began as a YouTube channel in a Moody Bible Institute dorm. It was born out of the central conviction that the gospel is really good news, and I wanted to share that with as many people as possible. The channel has grown and changed over time, but that central conviction has never changed. Today, we make content around biblical and theological topics, often interacting with people from across the Christian tradition with the hope of seeking greater unity and introducing people to the beautiful simplicity and transformative power of the gospel, the good news about Jesus.

About the host:
Hey! My name is Austin, and I'm a 23 year old guy who’s passionate about the beautiful simplicity and transformative power of the gospel. I believe that the gospel, the good news about Jesus, is really good news, and I’m out to explore, unpack, and share that good news with as many people as possible. I'm a full blown Bible and Church History nerd that loves getting to dialogue with others about this, learning as much as I can, and then teaching whatever I can. I grew up around Frederick, MD where I eventually ended up working my first job at a church. They made the mistake of letting me try my hand at teaching, and instantly I fell in love. That set me on a path for further education, and I'm currently a student at Moody Bible Institute in Chicago, IL, studying theology. On any given day you can find me with my nose in a book or a guitar in my hands. Want to get to know me more? Follow me and say hi on Instagram at: @austin.suggs
