  • Episode 21 - Not the Gospel
    2024/07/18

    In today’s episode, the boys discuss some common misunderstandings about popular Bible passages and Christian doctrines that the church very often gets wrong. Building on the principles laid out in last week’s episode (Law-Gospel Distinction), we will rediscover familiar Bible passages and Christian principles that are frequently presented as gospel, but are anything but.

    Our journey will take us through various passages in the Bible like the Sermon on the Mount (the Golden Rule) and the two greatest commandments, as well as Christian concepts like faith and repentance, cultural transformation, and evangelism.

    Our heart and aim is to put these passages and concepts in their proper place, to the end that we might find a deeper and fuller rest in the finished work of Christ.

  • Episode 19 - Politics and Christianity
    2024/06/26

    People say, “don't talk about politics and religion.” And so, today we're going to do both. As the elections in England and in the United States draw closer, we want to consider what the Bible has to say about government, the law, and the place of authority.

    Along the way we discuss Theonomy, what it is, and why it can often lead to restlessness, as well as how the gospel can provide the solution. We’ll also touch on various forms of political theology. And we will ground it all in God's post-flood covenant with Noah.

  • Episode 18 - Martin Luther (Part 2)
    2024/06/18

    In today's episode, we continue our conversation about Martin Luther and the Protestant Reformation, but before we begin, we start off our episode by tackling a big question, “can a Roman Catholic or an Eastern Orthodox person be saved?” And, “what about Mormons and Jehovah’s Witnesses?”

    From there, we’ll spend the rest of our episode traveling through various points in Luther’s life and ministry. We’ll talk about the Heidelberg Disputation, justification by faith alone, the Diet of Worms, and more. Ultimately, our aim is to bring focus onto Luther’s heart and desire for gospel clarity and precision. He was a herald of God’s grace, knowing it deeply and personally, and he sought to offer it to the whole world.

  • Episode 17 - Martin Luther (Part 1)
    2024/06/11

    In today's episode we jump in the time machine and head back to the days of the Reformation. In the first part of a two part series we journey with Luther from the cradle (1483) to the castle (1517).

    Along the way we consider the problems with a do-it-yourself theology, the issue of indulgences, and why we need the Gospel more than ever.

  • Episode 16 - Christian Longing
    2024/04/30

    Every human being on earth experiences longing, or a strong wish or desire for something to happen. But where does that longing come from? And why is it so universal in all of us?

    Join us for episode 16, as we take a journey through the topic of Christian longing. As the episode unfolds, we will discover what our sure and lasting hope is—eternal life in a good and perfect land with God. Our hope is that through this discovery, you might be able to see how all of our earthly longings are merely echoes and reverberations of our greatest longing, which is fulfilled in Christ alone. Here, hope reigns.

  • Episode 15 - Apologetics (Part 2)
    2024/04/23

    In today's episode, we continue our conversation around the topic of apologetics, the reasoned defense of the Christian faith, and we ask the question, "what reasons do we have to believe in the God of the Bible?"

    Contrary to popular opinion, Christianity is not a religion that calls its adherents to merely exercise blind faith, but it backs up that faith with good reason and evidence. What we stand on is worth standing on, and we can be confident in what we believe. We hope this episode both encourages and equips you, so that you may say along with C.S. Lewis, "I believe in Christianity as I believe that the sun has risen: not only because I see it, but because by it I see everything else."

  • Episode 14 - Apologetics (Part 1)
    2024/04/16

    In today's episode we piggy back off the last episode to discuss the existence of God. We spoke about who God is. But how can we know that God exists anyway? Is there evidence for such a big claim?

    We answer with a resounding yes! Part one of a two part series, Bryan and Daniel discuss the philosophical, scientific, historical, and moral arguments for the existence of God. We hope this episode is useful, encouraging, and equipping for Christians. And we pray for all the unbelievers who may be listening, that you'll come to realise that outside of Christianity, all other ground is sinking sand.
