  • SEBTS podcast

    This podcast is ok. I love SEBTS and I started listening to this podcast when I saw they had Daniel Darling as a guest. I was sadly disappointed. I’ve heard him on other pods and I just feel that while the interviewer is doing a good job, he could do better. Some of my questions about specific topics aren’t answered and that’s a very good way to judge the quality of an interview. Maybe it’s just me but it’s just kinda meh.

  • Excellent perspective, especially on public education

    I appreciate this podcast, particularly your thoughts on K-12 education. Many Christian platforms focus on the negative side of public schools and subtly look down on parents whose kids are in public schools. God has called our family to be active and spread His light in our local public schools, and I’m thankful this podcast supports families like mine. I pray this podcast inspires others to volunteer in or enroll their children in public schools, showing compassion and spreading His love to th... more

  • Breath of Fresh Air

    Benjamin Quinn brings thoughtful, biblical perspective to pertinent cultural issues that believers are navigating in a post-Christian world. Insightful guests provide depth and breadth of reflection on these issues from various backgrounds and areas of expertise. And it’s all done with a tone of charity and compassion. Highly recommend.

  • Informative and Balanced

    This podcast was a breath of fresh air. I was apprehensive at first that being a Southern Baptist seminary this podcast would be preachy, overly conservative, and only include their people (tribe) as guest. I could not have been more wrong. They have engaged guests and professors from varying backgrounds. The conversations have been balanced, informative, and challenging. Dr Keathley, Dr Quinn, and Nate are great hosts.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Apologetics in an Anti-Trust Culture (with Ben Holloway) – EP 249
Q: Why is objectivity a problem for Christians engaging with culture today?
Because believers need to offer reasons for their beliefs that are not merely personal or biased, and they must show how objective rules of logic can ground those reasons.
Life in Its Original Language (with Jono Darville) – EP 248
Q: What does it look like to live out these twin purposes in a real-world setting like church planting or the arts?
It means mobilizing people to see every vocation as a divine calling, pursuing relational reconciliation and cultural renewal through evangelism, service, and artistic expression rooted in Christian truth and beauty, so that God's kingdom advances through everyday life, work, and art.
Life in Its Original Language (with Jono Darville) – EP 248
Q: How has your personal journey shaped the book's audience and practical guidance for readers?
The journey through serious illness and recovery, plus experiences mentoring young people, pushed me to write a practical, discipleship-focused guide that helps newer Christians and church communities recalibrate life around God's purposes, with concrete training for faith-and-work integration.
Life in Its Original Language (with Jono Darville) – EP 248
Q: So, in a nutshell, what is the core purpose you're communicating in Life in Its Original Language?
The book presents humanity's twin purposes—relational enjoyment and cultural development—as the foundational lens to understand who we are, why we exist, and how believers should live out faith across all life spheres, from family to work to society, all under God's redemptive plan.
Why Most Churches Get Blindsided by Legal Problems (with Don Ziel and John Basie) – EP 245
Q: What is the Church and Ministry Alliance, and how does it support churches?
It's a membership program that educates and connects churches with a network of allied attorneys; it provides affordable access to guidance and helps churches scale their legal acumen through resources and events.
