Why I Am a Biblicist (Dr. Cory Marsh)

What does it mean to be a biblicist—and why should Christians embrace the label?

In this episode, Dr. Cory Marsh of Southern California Seminary unpacks the definition of biblicism, its connection to sola Scriptura, and how to guard against tradition and opinion taking precedence over God’s Word. He also addresses common criticisms and explains why biblicism is essential for the church today.
