Whether you're curious about church history or concerned about modern doctrinal trends, this talk will provide valuable perspective and practical applications.

Jesus Was More Than a Teacher—He Was *the* Content Creator

In this episode (a recording from a Youth Group talk), Chad Harrington explores what it means to see Jesus not just as Savior or Lord, but as Teacher—and not just any teacher, but the master teacher. Chad explains how Jesus taught with unmatched brilliance and communicated for transformation, not just information.

He then takes it one step further: Jesus wasn’t just a teacher—he was the content himself. The original content creator. Drawing from John 6, this message invites listeners to experience Jesus as the one who not only gives life, but is life.

Whether you're skeptical, curious, or ready to dive deeper, this episode will reframe how you see Jesus—and challenge you to take your next step as a learner under the greatest teacher who ever lived.
