One Passion

Four Gospels

Christ Over All is a fellowship of pastor-theologians dedicated to helping the church see Christ as Lord and everything else under his feet.

He is risen! He is risen indeed! Every spring we at Christ Over All set our gaze to Calvary. We look to the pinnacle of human history–the crucifixion and resurrection of our Lord. But this year we set our gaze from four unique vantage points: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. By paying close attention to each author’s particular view of Christ’s passion, our awe rises as our faith deepens. So this April, behold the man–the God-man–who lived, died, and rose again to bring us to God.

Crossway Publishers is graciously providing a free pdf copy of The Final Days of Jesus to readers of Christ Over All for the month of April.

The Podcast

Jesus Christ reigns over all things, and this podcast exists to help people see the reality and ramifications of this truth. We post at least four times a month: Twice, we will read aloud a longform essay from our monthly theme. And twice, we will discuss each essay with its author and another Christian leader. Listen in to live in light of Christ’s Lordship.

Upcoming Themes

In keeping with our vision to edify the church with evergreen content, our website is organized around monthly themes. These themes may focus on the Bible, theology, church, or culture. Over the course of the year we cover all these vital areas. There is a place for real-time responsiveness to cultural and evangelical controversy, but monthly themes do not focus on that priority. Rather, we plan our themes months in advance, curating a stable of writers with tailored assignments. Our hope is to foster mature and biblically-grounded reflection. To that end, with acknowledgement that all we plan is subject to God’s will, here are Christ Over All’s upcoming themes.
