You Tube Theology

This week NT Wright joins me to explore the vision behind his new book, God’s Homecoming: The Forgotten Promise of Future Renewal.

Many of us were raised with an end-times story that was focused on escape—going to heaven when we die, the rapture, and the destruction of the world.

BUT.

What if that was never the Christian hope?

In this conversation, NT Wright challenges fear-based eschatology and invites us into a different future: not leaving creation behind, but God renewing it. We talk about heaven, resurrection, new creation, and what the Bible actually says about the end times.

We also explore how this vision of hope speaks to real-world issues like political polarization, anxiety around "end times", and healing from evangelical and fundamentalist Christianity.

Are you deconstructing, rethinking faith, or searching for a way to imagine God without fear? This episode is for you!

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why “going to heaven when you die” became the dominant story
• What the Bible says about resurrection and new creation
• How fear-based end-times theology shaped evangelical Christianity
• What God’s “homecoming” means for how we live now
