Question Answer XIII
Is Christianity an offshoot of an ancient fertility cult? Why do the Gospels only talk about Jesus’ genealogy in connection to Joseph? Is there a place for Christian patriotism?

Second Act
The Acts of the Apostles is the epic sequel to Luke’s Gospel.
It follows the dramatic events immediately after the resurrection of Jesus, and follows how the first Christians – led by perhaps the most unlikely person – took the news of the Messiah to the edges of the Roman Empire – and beyond.

Into Wine
If we’re talking only about liquids you drink—because the water in the Bible is washed in, crossed over, and even walked on once—wine is no.1.
Wine appears more than 200 times in the Bible. And almost all of them are positive references—not critiques.
Christianity has a long, rich history with wine. But oftentimes, we’ve made it much more complicated and, at times, harmful.
