Description

In this episode Kerry and Jason discuss the power of Paul's testimony. They explore why many Jews sought to kill him, the parts of his testimony that they were able to receive and what they could not, and what that has to do with us and how we can apply it in our lives. They explore how his accounts of seeing Christ differ and what we can learn from that and how it parallels Joseph Smith's accounts of seeing Christ. They also discuss the effect this testimony has on Agrippa and Festus. They then explore what happens to Paul in his journey to Rome and what he does in Rome. They draw powerful lessons from the way Paul testifies and endures there, and how that should affect us. They also probe into the way Luke ends the book of Acts and why he may have done so and what that should mean to us.We are grateful for our sponsor, Lisa Spice, and for BJ Muhlestein, who edited this episode, and for Rich Nicholls, who composed and plays the music for the podcast.

The Scriptures Are Real (TSAR) with Kerry Muhlestein is a podcast where we look at elements of the scriptures that have become real to us. We interview both experts (people with language, archaeological, historical backgrounds, etc.), and lay folks, and explore times when the scriptures became real to them. This is done from the viewpoint of members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. We believe that there is real power in the scriptures and that as they become more real we can better apply them to our lives and draw more power from them. If you listen to this podcast you will learn all kinds of interesting background information that will help you understand and learn more from the scriptures. We believe it will allow you to add real power to your life. My gratitude to my co-host Lamar Newmeyer. Also to my friend Rich Nicholls, who composed the introductory music.
