  • Born to preach

    There is a particular joy that one receives when they witness somebody doing something that they were born to do. A great athlete, a great musician, and with Pastor Neil C Stewart, a great preacher.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Should Christians Fear Punishment For Sin? | Another One (Bonus Segment)
Q: Should the Christian ever fear punishment for their own sin in light of Romans 8, 33, and 34?
Dr. Thomas explains that while there will be a judgment with rewards, believers are not subject to eternal punishment or damnation because sins were punished in Christ; justification by faith ensures that sins have been dealt with, and punishment cannot be re-imposed on the believer.
A Glorious Golden Chain | Episode 308
Q: What's the relationship between foreknowledge and predestination in this passage, and how does that relate to our understanding of election?
Foreknowledge is about God's loving steadfastness toward His people, while predestination covers the whole of life toward conformity to Christ, culminating in glorification; they are parts of a single divine plan, not arbitrary choices.
A Glorious Golden Chain | Episode 308
Q: Could you start us off by talking about the firm foundation we have in Romans 8:28, and what the 'good' actually is?
The good is not material blessings but the conformity to Christ and future glorification, achieved through God's providence and sovereign plan, and underpinned by the foreknown love of God.
A Glorious Golden Chain | Episode 308
Q: Okay, Josh, tell us where we are in the book.
Thomas explains we are in chapter eight, titled A Golden Chain, covering Romans 8:28-30, and outlines the five linked stages of salvation.
The Road to the Cross | Easter Miniseries Episode 2
Q: Take us through. What are some of the big things we need to be thinking through as we're contemplating this day?
Bruce explains the Thursday Passover preparations, the shift from a strictly ceremonial Passover to the Maundy Thursday significance, the new commandment to love one another, and the symbolism of the foot washing as a high-contrast moment that reveals Jesus' grasp of servant leadership.
