LA MIRADA, CALIF. — In five years, Talbot School of Theology’s Think Biblically podcast has grown to one of the top podcasts in the area of faith and culture with over 100,000 downloads per month. On Oct. 24, Think Biblically hosts, Biola University professors and authors Dr. Sean McDowell and Dr. Scott Rae, will celebrate the fifth anniversary with a live recording starting with their first-ever podcast guest, author and apologist Josh McDowell.

“The Think Biblically podcast is focused on thoughtful Christians who want guidance on how to think Christianly about some of the most pressing cultural issues of our time,” said Sean McDowell. “Many non-Christians listen, but our focus is on equipping Christians.”

Rae and McDowell launched the weekly podcast to explore Christian perspectives on some of the most significant issues facing today's church and culture. The podcast tagline, “Conversations on Faith and Culture” rings true today as the hosts draw upon biblical wisdom and insights from guest experts as they explore how Christians can thoughtfully and faithfully engage with cultural trends and current events in each episode.

“Some of the most popular episodes have dealt with issues such as immigration, gender and sexuality, religion and politics, and numerous apologetic issues such as the reliability of the Bible and dealing with difficult texts in the Bible,” said Rae.
