    BTM 190- Understanding Mormonism Part 1 | 40 Questions About Mormonism by Dr. Kyle Beshears
    Apr 16 2026
    What makes Mormonism different from historic Christianity—and why does it matter?

    In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters podcast, Dr. Paul Weaver is joined by Dr. Kyle Beshears to explore the origins, history, and authority claims of Mormonism—also known as The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

    Drawing from his book 40 Questions About Mormonism, Dr. Beshears walks through key topics including:

    • The life and claims of Joseph Smith
    • The origin and translation of the Book of Mormon
    • The role of angelic visitations like Moroni
    • The idea of a “restored” church and priesthood authority
    • How Mormonism compares historically with biblical Christianity

    With millions of followers worldwide, Mormonism uses familiar Christian language—but does it mean the same thing? Understanding these similarities and differences is essential for thoughtful, informed conversations with friends, neighbors, and others from a Latter-day Saint background.

    This is Part 1 of a two-part conversation. In this episode, we focus on history and authority. In Part 2, we’ll examine key doctrinal differences and theological implications.

    👉 Whether you're new to this topic or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode will help you think clearly, engage graciously, and evaluate truth carefully.

    Apr 9 2026
    What does it truly mean to be an evangelical today?

    In this episode of the Bible and Theology Matters Podcast, Dr. Cory M. Marsh joins Dr. Paul Weaver to discuss his book Recovering a Vintage Faith: Five Fundamentals of Evangelical Identity. Together, they tackle the confusion surrounding modern evangelicalism and call believers back to a historic, biblical foundation.

    Dr. Marsh explains why evangelicalism should not be defined by politics, race, celebrity culture, or social trends—but by its doctrinal roots and faithful Christian living. He challenges the rise of “celebrity Christianity,” critiques the influence of “Big Eva,” and highlights the importance of local church accountability, biblical authority, and personal discipleship.

    🔑 In this conversation, you’ll discover:
    • What “vintage faith” and historic evangelicalism really mean
    • Why the authority and sufficiency of Scripture must come first
    • The dangers of political and cultural definitions of evangelicalism
    • How celebrity pastors and conference culture can distort the faith
    • The difference between theological, cultural, and political evangelicals
    • The five fundamentals of authentic evangelical identity
    📖 The Five Fundamentals Discussed:
    1. The supremacy and authority of Scripture
    2. The centrality of Jesus Christ and the gospel
    3. Personal evangelism and missions
    4. Participation in theological education
    5. Consistent involvement in the local church
    This episode is a must-watch for anyone seeking clarity on biblical Christianity and true evangelical identity.
