  • great podcast

    This is a great podcast, filled with biblically accurate information, the only thing that is keeping this review from a 5 star review is that the kids, while great, have a kind of monotone type of discussing, and sound very heavily scripted. But, in light of that, they are very good at keeping the facts straight

  • Outstanding! Highly recommended for kids and adults alike!

    If you are interested in church history, this podcast is for you, regardless of your age. It is unique in that kids (some very bright ones, I should add) participate and lead the program. However, just like Simonetta Carr’s excellent series “Christian Biographies for Young Readers”, this podcast is designed for young listeners but is perfectly suitable for adults. Many Christians know little about the history of the church. As a result, they're missing a testament to God's faithfulness over the ... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Francis Grimke and the Fight for the Abolition of Slavery
Q: Could you sum up his life for us?
Grimké was born in 1850, enslaved near Charleston, and educated through Lincoln University; he became a long-serving pastor, a preacher who fought racism, and an influencer who connected religious life with social reform.
Charles Finney
Q: How did you decide to focus on this part of history and why Finney as a figure?
The guest explains that his focus grew from scholarly work prompted by Philip Schaff, highlighting Finney as a pivotal figure who helped redefine free will, revival methodology, and the link between faith and holiness, making him essential to understanding the broader Second Great Awakening.
Charles Finney
Q: Did the preachers in the Second Awakening use music to generate excitement, and what were some popular songs?
Dr. MacDonald explains that revival music varied by date, with Finney leading revival music himself in some sessions, while later revivalism in the 19th century foregrounded hymns by writers like Isaac Watts and others; music became more central later on but during Finney's era it was more about the sermon and emotional engagement.
Kids Talk Church History Celebrates its 100th Episode!
Q: How did you come up with the idea for your book?
The idea emerged from prayer and a desire to observe and learn from Christians around the world, aiming to show how different cultures worship while sharing core Christian practices.
John Henry Newman: Challenging the Church of England
Q: Why do you think it's important to understand the questions that Newman raised?
Because the questions about church authority, education, and doctrinal development continue to shape how Christians understand tradition, change, and the role of creeds in contemporary faith communities.
