DOCTRINICITY — Episode 8
God Unchanging | J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, Chapter 7

What if the God you knew yesterday is the same God you can trust today—and will be the same God tomorrow?

Pastors Collin Kerrigan and Keith Wibbels continue their journey through J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, bringing the great ideas of the Christian tradition under the authority of Scripture and asking the question that matters: So what? How does this change Monday morning?

In Episode 8, we turn to Chapter 7, “God Unchanging,” and consider one of the most stabilizing truths in all of Scripture: God does not change. His character does not evolve. His purposes do not shift. His promises do not expire. The God who revealed Himself in Scripture is the God who remains faithful in every generation.

But if God is unchanging, what does that mean for us in a world where everything seems to change? What does God's immutability mean when our circumstances change, our relationships change, our culture changes, and even we ourselves change? And how does knowing that God cannot change give us confidence when life feels uncertain?

Collin and Keith explore the practical implications of an unchanging God, considering how His immutability grounds our faith, strengthens our assurance, shapes our prayers, corrects our expectations, and gives us hope when everything around us seems unstable.

Because our confidence isn't found in a world that stays the same. It's found in a God who does.

DOCTRINICITY — Episode 7
He Shall Testify | J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, Chapter 6

How do we know that Jesus is who He says He is—and how does the Holy Spirit make that truth real to us?

Pastors Collin Kerrigan and Keith Wibbels continue their journey through J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, bringing the great ideas of the Christian tradition under the authority of Scripture and asking the question that matters: So what? How does this change Monday morning?

In Episode 7, we turn to Chapter 6, “He Shall Testify,” and consider the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Jesus promised that when the Spirit came, “He will bear witness about me” (John 15:26). The Spirit does not draw attention away from Christ, but bears witness to Christ—opening our eyes to the truth of the gospel and making us increasingly aware of the reality of Christ in our lives.

What does it mean for the Holy Spirit to testify? How does the Spirit bear witness to Christ through Scripture? How does His work give us assurance, expose sin, strengthen faith, and empower us to live as witnesses ourselves?

Collin and Keith explore the often-misunderstood ministry of the Holy Spirit, asking what it means to know God not merely as an idea, but through the Spirit who reveals Christ, applies His work to us, and transforms us from the inside out.

Because the Christian life isn't sustained by our ability to manufacture faith, courage, or holiness. The Spirit Himself bears witness to Christ—and empowers us to bear witness to Him.

DOCTRINICITY — Episode 6
God Incarnate | J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, Chapter 5

What you believe about Jesus changes everything.

Pastors Collin Kerrigan and Keith Wibbels continue their journey through J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, bringing the great ideas of the Christian tradition under the authority of Scripture and asking the question that matters: So what? How does this change Monday morning?

In Episode 6, we turn to Chapter 5, “God Incarnate,” and confront one of the most astonishing truths of the Christian faith: the eternal God became man. The God who made us entered His creation. The infinite became finite. The Creator took on flesh and came near.

What does the incarnation tell us about who Jesus really is? Why does it matter that Christ is fully God and fully man? And what does the incarnation reveal about the character of God and His desire to rescue His people?

Collin and Keith explore the mystery and majesty of God with us, considering why the incarnation is essential to the gospel—not merely a doctrine to affirm, but a truth that should reshape our worship, humility, courage, suffering, relationships, and everyday lives.

Because Christianity isn't ultimately about a distant God we are trying to reach. It is about the God who came to us.

The Only True God: Part II | J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, Chapter 4

What you believe shapes how you live.

Pastors Collin Kerrigan and Keith Wibbels continue their journey through J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, bringing the great ideas of the Christian tradition under the authority of Scripture and asking the question that matters: So what? How does this change Monday morning?

In Episode 5, we return to Chapter 4, “The Only True God,” and go deeper into what it means to know the God who has revealed Himself—not the God we would prefer Him to be.

What happens when we approach God on our own terms? Can we truly worship God while reshaping Him around our preferences? And what does our view of God reveal about the way we actually live?

Collin and Keith explore the danger of a God fashioned by our own imagination, the difference between knowing God and merely knowing facts about Him, and why the character of God must shape our worship, obedience, confidence, and daily lives.

Because the God we worship will inevitably shape the people we become.

The Only True God: Part I | J.I. Packer’s Knowing God, Chapter 4

What you believe shapes how you live.

Pastors Collin Kerrigan and Keith Wibbels dig into the great books, thinkers, and ideas of the Christian tradition, bringing them under the authority of Scripture and asking the question that matters: So what? How does this change Monday morning?

In Episode 4, we continue our journey through J.I. Packer’s Knowing God with Chapter 4, “The Only True God.” Packer confronts a question at the heart of Christian faith: Who is the God we actually worship?

In a world full of competing ideas about God, how do we know the God we believe in is the true God? What happens when we make God smaller, softer, or more manageable than He has revealed Himself to be? And what does it mean to know God rather than merely know about God?

Collin and Keith wrestle with idolatry, the temptation to construct a God in our own image, and the importance of letting God’s revelation—not our preferences—define who He is.
