Putting the Gospel First: Part 8 - Conclusion
Even if you’re already familiar with the Gospel, join Brian Johnston as we follow Paul’s expert and Spirit-filled defence of it.

Not Fake News: Part 11 - Four Things God Wants You To Know
We’ve all heard the term ‘fake news’ - Donald Trump made sure we did. If something’s fake, we can be sure it’s false. There’s a true story about an elderly gentleman who was so animated in his preaching of the gospel - God’s Good News - that at one point his full set of false teeth flew out of his mouth and clattered onto the floor. With no more ado, he calmly descended from the pulpit and collected his teeth from the floor in front of his audience. By the time he’d returned to the pulpit and was facing his audience once more, the teeth were already back in his mouth, and he continued quite unfazed by announcing to his spell-bound listeners: ‘There’s nothing false about the Gospel!’
It's that gospel of good news which is the subject of this series of mini-sermons from Bible teacher Brian Johnston.

Discover magazine once announced: “The universe burst into something from absolutely nothing—zero, nada. And as it got bigger, it became filled with even more stuff that came from absolutely nowhere.” Why do apparently intelligent people resort to believing in magic (miraculous events without any sufficient explanation or cause)? Former nuclear scientist Brian Johnston explores five ways atheists (materialists) believe in magic – in relation to the origin of (1) the universe, (2) stars, (3) life, (4) biodiversity, and (5) morality.
