In today’s episode, we hear from Dr. Craig S. Keener, a North American academic and F. M. and Ada Thompson Professor of Biblical Studies at Asbury Theological Seminary. Dr. Keener received his Ph.D. in New Testament Studies and Christian Origins from Duke University. He has authored 25 books and his recent books include Galatians (Cambridge, 2018) and Mind of the Spirit: Paul’s Approach to Transformed Thinking (Baker Academic, 2016) Craig is married to Dr. Medine Keener and has a son named David.

In this lecture, Dr. Keener talks about Jesus addressing seven churches; Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea in the book of Revelation. Jesus warned of false teachers and admonished the church for “losing its first love”. Dr. Keener reiterates the importance of the church persevering to the end so that we might receive the Lord’s promise of a great hope.
