In this special episode of Stunned by Scripture, Dr. John Bergsma is joined by long-time friend, colleague, and founder and president of the St. Paul Center, Dr. Scott Hahn.

Scott Hahn—host of The Road to Emmaus, General Editor of the Ignatius Catholic Study Bible, and Father Michael Scanlan Professor of Biblical Theology and the New Evangelization at Franciscan University of Steubenville—joins John in his first-ever appearance on the show to discuss his conversion story and everything theology.

In this conversation amongst friends and theologians, you’ll discover: the difference between holiness and righteousness, covenantal theology and the law, and how to deepen your relationship with Jesus Christ.

Be sure to have a pen and notebook handy, because this discussion is full of insights that you’ll want to return to again and again for deeper meditation.
