322: Chris Palmer on Spiritual Formation, Trusting God in Mystery, Heresy Hunters, False Narratives, Why Word and Spirit Matters for Growth, and How to Study the Scriptures Effectively

This week, Chris Palmer, a New Testament Scholar who specializes in Greek studies, joins us to talk about spiritual formation, trusting God in mystery, why the marriage of Word and Spirit is so vital, and how to study the Scriptures effectively. I wanted to begin the new year by aiming our hearts toward spiritual growth, and I trust our conversation today will do that. Also of note, starting January 25 and continuing through February on the podcast, we're doing a series called "Formed," which is all on spiritual formation, featuring Richard Foster, Ruth Haley Barton, Jamie Winship, John Bevere, and more.
