From opposition to the deity of Christ, to the rise of proto-Gnosticism, to the pluralism of pagan culture, and even internal conflicts like the Jerusalem Council—Christians in the first century wrestled with many of the same issues we see in our modern “pre-Christian” world.In this lecture, Christian Barrett explores:- Why the Jewish leaders opposed Jesus and the early Christians- How "Proto-Gnostic" ideas threatened the church’s doctrine- Paul’s bold response to paganism in Athens (Acts 17)- The Jerusalem Council’s decision and its impact on salvation by grace- How these early challenges equip us to face today’s cultural and spiritual questionsWhether you’re a student, pastor, or just curious about church history, this teaching will help you see that “there is nothing new under the sun”—and that the gospel is still the power of God for every generation.00:15- How studying history can help us face our challenges today07:31- The First Challenge: Judaism8:50- Why did the Jews kill Jesus?19:54- The Second Challenge: Proto-Gnosticism28:39- The Third Challenge: Paganism34:13- The Fourth Challenge: LegalismDiscussion Questions:1. What are some problems or challenges you see in Christianity today that you think the early church also faced?2. Why do you think acknowledging Jesus as God was so controversial then? Why is it still controversial today?A. How can we defend Christ’s deity?3. Where do we see similar “spiritual elitism” or denial of physical reality in our world today?4. Why is it hard for people today to accept that Jesus is the only way?5. What are ways people today still try to add requirements to salvation, instead of trusting Christ alone?6. Which of these early challenges (hostility, false teaching, pluralism, legalism) feels most pressing to your faith right now? Why?Recommended Resources: Nick Needham, 2000 Years of Christ Power, Vol 1: https://www.amazon.com/000-Years-Christs-Power-Vol/dp/1781917787Justo Gonzalez, The Story of Christianity, Vol 1: https://www.amazon.com/Story-Christianity-Vol-Church-Reformation/dp/006185588XThe Shepherd of Hermas: https://www.newadvent.org/fathers/0201.htmThe Apostles' Creed: https://www.crcna.org/welcome/beliefs/creeds/apostles-creedThe Didache: https://www.newadvent.org/fathers/0714.htm#ChurchHistory #EarlyChurch #ChristianFaith #CollegeMinistry #Apologetics

The story of the church begins in the book of Acts. From the risen Christ commissioning His disciples, to Pentecost and the spread of the gospel, the early Christians turned the world upside down. In this lecture, we’ll explore the foundation of church history: the mission of the apostles, the convictions of the first believers, and the sacrifices of the martyrs.This is the first lecture in our Christian History and Theology Course. Together, we’ll see how faithful, flawed, but fruitful saints carried the gospel from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth—and why their story still matters today.
Topics Covered:
Why church history matters today
Acts as the first “history book” of the church
The mission of the apostles and the Great Commission
Convictions of the early church (prayer, Scripture, baptism, Lord’s Supper, discipleship)
How persecution and martyrdom shaped Christianity
Why the early church is our story as believers today.

The rapture is one of the most misunderstood topics in Christianity. From YouTube prophets to sensational books and movies, many claim to know when the rapture will happen. But what does the Bible actually teach?
In this video, Christian Barrett looks at the prediction made by Joshua Mhlakela about the Rapture happening September 23-24, the origins of the rapture teaching, exposes other false predictions, and explores how Christians are truly called to live in the last days.
Topics covered:
- Did the rapture already happen?
- False prophecies about the rapture (including Sept 23–24, 2025 predictions).
- Where the idea of the rapture came from (Darby, Scofield, and beyond).
- Why setting dates for Christ’s return is dangerous.
- How we should live with hope, holiness, and readiness for Jesus.
Scriptures: 1 Thessalonians 4:13–18, Matthew 24:36, Titus 2:11–13

The tragic death of Charlie Kirk marks more than the loss of a cultural leader — it highlights the civilizational moment we find ourselves in. In this video, Christian Barrett examines what his assassination means for Western values, the culture war, and the urgent need for Christians to stand for truth in the global public square. From questions of suffering to the influence of thinkers like Os Guinness and how we should see the difference between 1776 and 1789, he explores how believers can respond with conviction and hope as salt and light in this civilizational moment. This video also considers the secular agenda shaping our culture, the call to revival and renewal, and what Charlie Kirk’s legacy means for the future of Western values.
👉 If you care about Christian faith, Western civilization, and the future of culture, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

In this video, Christian Barrett compares how the Roman Catholic Church canonizes saints with how the Bible defines sainthood. He looks at Pope Leo XIV's recent canonization of two new saints (Carlo Acutis and Pier Giorgio Frassati), explores what that means, and asks how someone officially becomes a saint in Catholicism. He also dives into the more important question: what does Scripture teach about sainthood, righteousness, and who truly belongs to God?

Who is the church really for — believers, seekers, or both? In this video, Christian Barrett explores the purpose of the local church, the role of expositional preaching, and whether church should primarily be outreach-driven.
Along the way, he responds to Joël Malm’s perspective, examines what makes a Biblical sermon, and discusses whether outreach and exegetical preaching stand in contrast with one another. We’ll also touch on how worship music (with references to Brandon Lake and Bryce Crawford) plays into the larger conversation.

Is Penal Substitutionary Atonement biblical? In this video, Christian Barrett responds to John Mark Comer’s recent comments about PSA and why this doctrine is essential to the gospel. Many Christians today are confused about atonement theories, but the Bible clearly teaches that Jesus died as our substitute, bearing the penalty for our sins so that we might be reconciled to God. This is the message of salvation, and one worth talking about and defending.
📖 In this teaching, we’ll walk through what penal, substitutionary, and atonement actually mean, why denying PSA is dangerous, and how Scripture defends this core truth of Christianity.
🔥 If you’ve ever heard critics call the cross “cosmic child abuse” or wondered why Jesus had to die, this video will help you see why Penal Substitutionary Atonement is not just a theory—it’s the heart of the gospel.

In this video, Christian Barrett reacts to several Catholic and Protestant Instagram Reels featuring voices like Father David Michael, Voice of Reason, and Ed Young. These reels cover topics such as Mary and Catholic devotion, salvation by faith vs works, and what the church is called to do.
As a Protestant, he shares his perspective on questions like:
- Can salvation come through works, or is it by grace through faith?
- How do Catholics view Mary compared to Protestants?
- What is the biblical definition of the Church?
Whether you’re Catholic, Protestant, or just curious, I hope this video helps you think deeply about Mary, salvation, and the gospel of grace.

What is real Protestantism? In this video, Christian Barrett responds to common Catholic criticisms of the Protestant church, including claims that Protestant worship is just emotionalism, that it’s disconnected from historic Christianity, and that it’s more Americanized than Roman Catholicism.
Drawing from Protestant church history and the Protestant Reformation, Christian looks at what the Bible and historic Protestant confessions actually say about worship, preaching, and the local church. This is a fair, biblical, and historical answer to the Protestant vs Catholic conversation.

In a powerful episode of the Joe Rogan Experience, former Navy SEAL Chadd Wright boldly proclaimed the Gospel. This video breaks down the conversation and highlights five biblical truths we must remember from a short clip in their conversation.
From confronting the idea that the Cross is foolishness to the world to the reality that we are dead apart from Christ, Chadd’s words weren’t just motivational—they were eternal. If you’ve ever wondered how to speak about faith in secular spaces, this breakdown is for you.

Abdullah Hashem Aba Al-Sadiq claims to be the Mahdi—the eschatological figure in Islam meant to prepare the way for Jesus. Some are calling him the Antichrist. In this video, we examine what Islam teaches about the end-time figure, what the Bible says about the Antichrist, and why Abdullah’s claims present a major dilemma for Islam. We also talk about how Christians should respond to bold claims like these with biblical discernment, gospel clarity, and confidence in Christ's reign.
👉 Is this just another false teacher… or something more?

In this video, I unpack why only 1 in 10 Christians actually hold a biblical worldview — and what we must do to change that.
From worship trends that look more like concerts than Christ-centered gatherings to sermons quoting Kendrick Lamar and Avengers-themed Easter services… it’s clear the culture is shaping the church more than the Word of God, and this MUST change.
The change starts with us renewing our minds and thinking biblically. In this video, I talk about resisting cultural lies and thinking like a Christian by forming a solid, gospel-centered worldview rooted in Scripture. Plus I provide practical tools, a a resource list, and a challenge to take your discipleship seriously.

I recently attended Jordan Peterson’s ARC Conference, where key thinkers like Os Guinness, Baroness Philippa Stroud, Douglas Murray, Jordan Peterson, and more discussed the challenges of our cultural moment. In this video, I reflect on what Christians can learn from this conference for cultural engagement, public faith, and how the Gospel speaks to today's societal issues.
How should Christians respond to cultural shifts?
What role does Christianity play in shaping the future?
How can we engage without compromising biblical truth?
I’ll break down major themes from ARC, including:
Os Guinness on freedom & faith
The need for us to have more children
Jordan Peterson’s vision for cultural renewal
The importance of truth, responsibility, and biblical wisdom as we tell the Better Story
If you're interested in Christian cultural engagement, apologetics, and the intersection of faith & society, this video is for you!
Let’s discuss in the comments: How should Christians engage with today’s culture?

What does a spiritually healthy Christian look like? This week on the Toolbox we discuss the disciplines of the Christian life that are key to living a life devoted to God.
Everything that Christian knows about Jesus's life comes from the four accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Thus, it is vital that we figure out whether or not we can trust them. If we can't then our faith is in vain, but if we can, then the whole world must hear the message that Jesus Christ saves.
The gospel is the only hope that sinners have in order to be saved, so it's crucial that we get it right. This week we look at what the gospel is not, what the gospel is, how it changes our lives.
For further questions, you can e-mail Christian at Christian@mywestwood.org.

Did Jesus really die on the cross? What evidence is there for such a claim? This week on the Toolbox Westwood Associate Pastor Ben Russel joins us as we look at the historical and biblical data for the death of Jesus of Nazareth. We close out this episode by discussing the eternal implications for the death of Jesus on the cross.
One of the most important questions anyone can ask is, "Who was Jesus?" This question deserves a thorough and biblical response, so this week on the Toolbox we will look at who Jesus claimed to be in his earthly ministry and why his answer has radical implications on our lives as Christians and all of humanity.
In the first episode of the Toolbox, Christian walks through what it means to view the world from a biblical lens. In the 21st century, it is paramount that the way Christians think and interact with the world starts from a biblical foundation. The hope for this episode is that Christians would be better equipped to think and interact with the fallen world that they find themselves in.
