In this episode of The Today Counts Show, hosts Jim Piper sits down with author and theologian Brian Crawford to explore one of the most controversial and world-shaping claims in history—the belief in a Divine Messiah. Drawing from his book, The Scandal of a Divine Messiah, Brian unpacks why the message of Jesus was considered radical and offensive in the first century and why it continues to confront cultural and religious assumptions today.

This episode digs into the historical context of messianic prophecy, the claims of Jesus, and the powerful implications of the incarnation—God becoming man. Is Jesus really who He said He was? Why does it matter for life, faith, and leadership today? Brian brings clarity, biblical depth, and unapologetic truth to this essential conversation.

If you care about theology, Christian leadership, apologetics, or understanding the foundations of the Christian faith, this episode will inform, challenge, and strengthen your worldview.
