Tyndale Theological Seminary Professor Drake Williams on WHY THE FOUR CANONICAL GOSPELS PROVIDE THE BEST PICTURE OF JESUS
Wednesday, 2 April at 18:00 GMT
Has the Church unfairly chosen Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John while leaving out many others? Would modern-day seekers and followers of Jesus be better served by including the gospels that appear outside of the New Testament? Would we understand Jesus more fully with the inclusion of lost Christianities? Dr. Williams addresses these questions, carefully considering the data surrounding the historical Jesus.

Executive Mentor Bobb Biehl on DEPRESSION, FATIGUE, BURNOUT: HOW TO COUNSEL YOURSELF WHEN NO ONE ELSE IS AVAILABLE
Tuesday, 15 April at 18:00 GMT
"One of the primary contributors to pastors leaving the ministry is 'empathy fatigue' which quickly leads to depression, and burnout. The 'Counseling Yourself' series is a very practical, relatable tool to deal with this potentially fatal challenge."

Solas Centre for Public Christianity Chairman David Robertson on THE APOLOGETIC OF EVIL: IS EVIL CAUSE FOR DEFENSIVENESS OR GREATER CONFIDENCE?
Thursday, 24 April at 18:00 GMT
The problem of evil is often seen as a difficulty that Christians have to overcome if we want to communicate the Good News. We often approach this question in a defensive manner and come across as seeking to excuse God. This is not a new problem and the problem of evil is actually a greater problem for the atheist and agnostic than it is for the Christian. By looking at the philosophical and emotional apologetic of evil, we see how this problem actually becomes a tremendous stimulus and apologia for the communication of the Good News. Using a combination of philosophy, theology, history, culture and human examples, we will see how instead of evil being a reason to disbelieve in God, it actually becomes a powerful reason to believe in and trust God.
