  • Summary

  • Have you ever wished that someone would explain theology in a way that doesn’t require a degree or a dictionary? Maybe you’ve listened to a sermon and it seemed like the pastor was speaking another language. Or perhaps you’ve thought that the notes in your study Bible could use a commentary of their own. From imputation to justification, theophany to theodicy, keeping all these concepts straight can be a challenge for any believer. This is a short podcast about long words. Every week, Barry Cooper sheds light on a different biblical or theological term, using helpful illustrations to apply it to your life. Listen to this week’s episode to expand your understanding and deepen your faith, one word at a time.

  • The Rapture

    The Rapture
    Feb 4 2025

    For more than 1,800 years, Christians understood “the rapture” to be the blissful moment of Jesus’ second coming. But within the last century and a half, a new interpretation emerged. Today, Barry Cooper helps us consider what the Bible says about the rapture of Christ’s church.

Tough topics made easy

I would highly recommend this podcast to anyone seeking to understand theological terminology or just knowing God. Mr Cooper packs a lot of information into these short podcasts and he actually makes listening to them fun. It shows his passion for not only thoroughly knowing each subject but also to hold the listeners attention.
