About this Episode

Does God still love Israel today? Should Christians work in the defense industry? Who were the “sons of God” in Genesis 6? And should modern Christians practice Passover or foot washing?
In this episode of Ask NT Wright Anything, Tom Wright and Mike Bird unpack deep questions about God’s enduring love for Israel, the ethical challenges of working in defense and military industries, the mysterious “sons of God” in Genesis, and the ongoing meaning of Passover and foot washing for followers of Jesus today. The conversation wrestles with ancient texts, modern dilemmas, and how to live faithfully in a complex world.
