About Bible Questions Answered with George Shamblin
Bible questions answered in plain English by a pastor who has been asking them for thirty years. Short episodes, one question each, taken from the whiteboard talks I give every week at The Center for Executive Leadership in Birmingham. This isn't for scholars, but everyday believers who want to go much deeper into the word. If you've got a question, send it to me at georgeshamblin.com.

Why Are Churches Failing? What the Bible Prescribes
Have you wondered why so many churches have empty parking lots or have shut down entirely? My son George Jr. and I look at one denomination that has lost most of its members, and at how a church loses its first love. Then I walk through Revelation 2:4 and 5, where Jesus gives the church at Ephesus three steps back: remember from where you have fallen, repent, and do the works you did at first.

Who Was John Wycliffe? The Man They Dug Up and Burned
John Wycliffe put the Bible into English at a time when owning a copy could cost you your life. In the 1300s every sermon was in Latin, and almost nobody understood a word. Wycliffe said the Scriptures, not the pope and not the councils, are the supreme authority in the church. He died in his own bed in 1384. In 1428 they dug up his bones, burned them, and threw the ashes into the River Swift. They called him the Morning Star of the Reformation. This is part 2 of Torchbearers.

What Church Do You Belong To? Where Every Christian Church Comes From
Ask ten people what church they belong to and you will get ten answers. For the first thousand years there was one church. Then five bishoprics, then the split of 1054. Whether you are Baptist, Methodist, Catholic, Orthodox or non-denominational, you and I come from the same place, all the way back to Genesis 3:15. This is part 1 of Torchbearers, a five part series on the men who carried the fire before Luther struck the match.
