Join Kirk E. Miller and distinguished theologian Graham Cole for a deep dive into the doctrine of the Incarnation. They explore what it means for Christ to become human, including related doctrines like the trinity and hypostatic union.

They trace the incarnation across the Bible, including its Old Testament anticipation and explicit New Testament revelation. For instance, how does a right understanding of the incarnation help us become better readers of Scripture? Finally, they consider why the incarnation—over against various Christological heresies and errors—matters for our salvation and daily living.
