Jason! Why do you insist on making me rethink everything I've ever learned about my faith: The idea of Israel (now and in the past), Penal Substitutionary Atonement, Atonement in the form of payment, needing a new heart to bring about a right judgement, Jewish Eschatology, and the list goes on.... Dang it!!!
Could you speak more on Christians "never being entirely free from the threat of [Sin's] reemergence"? What is the nature of indwelling sin in the life of the believer? Why/How does sin still dwell in the believer?
There are two interpretations of sin in Romans: one is the participatory mode of sin (sin as a force independent of humans and gods), and the other is the judicial mode of sin (behavior). Participating in Christ's co death may no longer be subject to the mode of sin, but it does not mean that the flesh does not sin as a result. I don't know if I'm right or not, I hope Jason can guide me.
I’ve watched both videos on Lewis twice. Really enjoyed them and have shared with my book club friends. Do you have access somewhere to the handouts to print out?
One of the handouts is accessible through a link in the YouTube description. The other isn’t available at present; once I publish these, those resources will be more readily available.

Jason, one last question... Is there video (or audio) of your second lecture at the Inklings Fellowship meeting? If so, where can we find it?
Looking forward to watching this! So when do you expect your book on Lewis to come out?
It’ll be a bit; likely no earlier than 2027.
