Why does Acts place more weight on the ascension than the crucifixion? What does it really mean for Jesus to reign from heaven? And how do themes of unity, resistance, and divine authority shape the Church’s mission today?

Easter Bonus: What does Easter mean for the mission of the Church today? Tom Wright and Mike Bird
You’re here because you love hearing Tom Wright’s insights on Ask NT Wright Anything . In this special Easter Monday episode—available free on our new subscriber-only feed —Mike Bird and Tom Wright go beyond the empty tomb to explore the bold, world-shaping implications of the resurrection. What does Easter really mean for the mission of the Church today? Is resurrection just about life after death—or something far bigger? Mike asks how Easter reshapes the Church’s mission today. Tom reflects on a Holy Week sermon in Jerusalem in 1989—focused on heaven, but missing the power of new creation now. From ancient Jerusalem to today’s conflicts, they explore how the resurrection calls Christians to justice, beauty, evangelism—and above all, hope. Jesus rises not to help us escape the world, but to redeem it. Rooted in John 20, the Great Commission, and Psalm 2, this episode offers a bold vision of the Church as a living sign of God’s new creation.

NT Wright on the Resurrection: History, Theology & Why It Still Matters with Tom Wright and Mike Bird
Welcome to a special Easter edition of Ask NT Wright Anything, where we dig into the historical and theological foundations of the resurrection of Jesus. New Testament scholar Mike Bird joins Tom Wright to raise some tough questions - like why, historically speaking, resurrection is such a radical claim, and whether it can be anything more than a statement of faith. Tom responds by exploring how early Christians understood the resurrection not as a metaphor, but as the bodily vindication of Jesus as Messiah. He highlights the Jewish context, the use of Scripture like 2 Samuel 7, and how this shaped the Church’s understanding of Jesus’ identity, God’s love, and victory over death. This is part one of a two-part Easter conversation. In the second half - free for now but shortly available exclusively to subscribers of Ask NT Wright Anything - Tom continues his seminar with Mike and explores the implications of the resurrection for the Church today and Christian mission. 👉 Head to AskNTWright.com for more details and to subscribe.

Should we take the devil seriously? (Classic)
A bit of a twist today as we answer listener's questions that have come in asking: are we meant to take Satan literally? Join Tom Wright as he unravels some of the intricate threads of the New and Old Testaments to uncover the biblical portrayal of the devil. We're looking at some of the questions and looking at biblical passages where Jesus confronts and challenges the forces of darkness, asking what role does the Devil play in affecting ministry and what power does Satan really have? Do we over-think the devil and the supernatural when we avoid heavy metal music, particular pop stars or ban Harry Potter books - where is the line between genuine caution and a kind of 'satanic panic'? What practices should we avoid that should be recognised as 'evil'? And remembering Jesus' ultimate defeat of Satan and death on the cross. Enjoy this thought-provoking discussion that we hope sheds some light on this complex and often misunderstood (or sometimes avoided) topic of 'evil', 'satan' and 'the devil'.
