Todd Miles, professor of Theology at Western Seminary, joins us today as we talk about his book “Superheroes Can’t Save You: Epic Examples of Historic Heresies”.
You guessed it, we talk about Superman, Batman, Hulk and even who we think the PNW Superhero Jesus would be.
While superheroes are fun, they can’t save you. The cultural obsession with superheroes does point to our need, our desire, for a perfect Savior. Jesus is not another DC or Marvel Superhero. He is the Son of God, fully God and fully man, the propitiation for our sins, our Lord and Savior. Only He can save humanity.
Which is your favorite Superhero? And how does that relate to the church & your understanding of who Jesus is? Comment below.
