Sean McDowell

As part of Magnolia's Encounters with Truth series, we will be hosting Dr. Sean McDowell for two hours on Sunday, September 27th.  He will be handling two different topics during his time here.

9:30 AM: 9 LIES MASQUERADING AS THE GOSPEL TRUTH
The culture and church are filled with false gospels. They are literally everywhere. What are they and how do we identify them? In this message, Sean uses Galatians 1:8-9 as a springboard to discuss 9 of the most common false gospels appearing in the culture today. And he talks about the heart and power of the one true gospel.

11:00 AM: DID THE APOSTLES REALLY DIE AS MARTYRS?
One of the most common evidences given to trust the reliability of the apostolic testimony is their willingness to die as martyrs. And yet, what is the evidence for their fates? And what about others who have died for their beliefs? In this session, Sean examines the historical evidence for the deaths of the various apostles and shows how this helps confirm their sincere conviction that Jesus rose from the dead.
