Christology and the Problem of WWJD

"What would Jesus do?" It sounds like a simple and helpful question—but is it actually the right one to ask?

In this episode, we dig into Christology—who Jesus is—and why that matters more than simply trying to imitate what He would do. While WWJD can seem like a good moral guide, it can subtly turn Jesus into just an example to follow rather than the Savior who redeems.

We talk about the danger of reducing Christianity to behavior, how a right understanding of Christ shapes our faith, and why the gospel is about what Jesus has done for us before it's ever about what we do.
