He loves to use his writing and studies to build up the faith of others, to help disciples grow deeper in their understanding of scripture, and to share the truth of the gospel with nonbelievers. His hobbies include, but are not limited to, playing the piano, classical and jazz music, creative writing, and listening to great podcasts.

Some Uncommon Thoughts About the Book of Ruth The scriptural narrative of the promised land that Israel would come to inhabit included two different streams of thought: one of total separation from the surrounding nations, and another that recognized a possibility for inclusion. Deuteronomy and Joshua include commands of a fierce and unyielding separation from the nations that Israel would come to inhabit.... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
My Approach to Apologetics: God Will Come Through As I’ve gone down the road to becoming an apologist, a defender of the Christian faith, it has been a thrilling adventure, at times disturbing and at times very exciting. I had always felt a call towards defending the Christian faith, ever since my early days of becoming a Christian. It seemed to me that... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
Satan: Function and Foe If you’ve read my previous articles on Satan and the Spiritual Realm, you may have found them interesting, but you may also be a little perplexed wondering, “What are we to take from all this?” Here is a brief summary of the scholarly information I presented: The snake of Genesis 3 most likely would not...

Satanic Imagery in the Bible In a previous article, I laid out some of the information we find about Satan in the Old Testament. We looked at the serpent in Genesis 3, in the book of Job, and elsewhere in the Old Testament. In this part, we will look at the information in apocryphal literature, which we do not consider...

Satan in the Old Testament In recent scholarship, the traditional Christian interpretation of Satan has come under some scrutiny. Scholars like Dr. Michael Heiser, Dr. Miryam Braynd, and Dr. Archie Wright have focused on the development of the Satan character throughout biblical literature. Much of this scholarship has been helpful and enlightening, but the data presented can make the Satan... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
Book Review: Unseen Realm by Michael Heiser The Unseen Realm: Recovering the Supernatural Worldview of the Bible by Michael S. Heiser is an excellent book that is a challenge to many of our presuppositions of what Scripture says about the unseen, spiritual world. In the first chapter of the book, Heiser points out a watershed moment in which his friend told him... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
The Slaughter of the Canaanites: An Answer “We don’t realize the extent to which our framework for thinking about the Bible and violence (among other topics) is culturally determined.” – John Goldingay In this article, I will discuss one of the most controversial and heavily debated subjects in the Bible: the Israelite conquest. The most pertinent questions regarding the Israelite conquest of... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
The Slaughter of the Canaanites: Our Options “[The Israelites] sacrificed their sons and their daughters to false gods. They shed innocent blood, the blood of their sons and daughters, whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan, and the land was desecrated by their blood. They defiled themselves by what they did; by their deeds they prostituted themselves” (Psalm 106:37-39, emphasis mine).... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
Astros: A Cautionary Tale Recently, it came to light that the Houston Astros stole signs in 2017 when they won the World Series. Now they’re getting fined, some are getting fired, and the legacy is tarnished. A time of great celebration for Astros fans has turned into a time where many are no longer fans of the team and...

Book Review: Origins, by Paul Copan and Douglas Jacoby Origins: The Ancient Impact and Modern Implications of Genesis 1-11, authored by Paul Copan and Douglas Jacoby, was written to address the cultural and cognitive environment of the Ancient Near East (ANE) in which Genesis 1-11 was written. It represents the first eleven chapters of Genesis as distinctly literary rather than as literal history. Origins... Photo of Jonathan LichtenwalterJonathan Lichtenwalter
