What do we really mean when we say the Bible is our final authority?

Why don't we consult the Bible when learning to hit a golf ball or changing the oil on our car?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Ben Witherington III—world-renowned New Testament scholar, author of over 60 books, and the man who’s written a commentary on every New Testament book—to tackle the doctrine of Sola Scriptura: Scripture's Final Authority in the Modern World.

Ben shows us where scripture draws the line—and how culture keeps trying to blur it.

This podcast will clearly define what Sola Scriptural is and isn't.

I will be teaching this to all my kids.

What does the Bible reveal about the heart? In this episode of Bibleworthy, we uncover its role as the center of human existence—where intellect, will, and spiritual life converge. Drawing from David K. Naugle’s Reordered Love, Reordered Lives and Worldview: The History of a Concept, we explore how the heart shapes our desires, worldview, and ultimate treasures. Discover how God’s grace transforms disordered loves and what it truly means to live with a heart aligned to His will.

In this episode, I, Blair Lee, am on a quest for Bible-worthy authors and ideas that challenge us to think deeply about life’s big questions as Christians.

I explore 4 thought-provoking topics:

1. Should we consider teaching children about spiritual battles?
2. Could voting be used as a means of sharing our faith?
3. Is there a metaphor that truly captures the challenge of reading and interpreting scripture?
4. And, can Christians find a place for happiness and pleasure in their spiritual lives?

I’ll share personal family stories, unpack insights from scripture, and highlight authors who tackle these themes with biblical wisdom and nuance.

Mentioned:

• When Demons Surface by Steve Dabbs
• The Bob Murphy Show episode on voting
• Mere Christian Hermeneutics by Kevin J Vanhoozer
• Desiring God by John Piper

In this episode, I sit down with Steve Dabbs, retired chaplain and author of When Demons Surface, to examine the controversial topic of generational curses. Together, we explore whether patterns of struggle in families are biblical realities or misconceptions—and what it means for Christians today.

• What does the Bible really say about generational curses, and are they relevant for Christians today?
• Is it possible that family history impacts us spiritually or physically?
• How can we tell the difference between natural consequences and spiritual influences across generations?
• Are there specific signs that might suggest generational patterns beyond just behavior?
• If generational curses do exist, what steps can we take to address them?
