This podcast takes conservative theology and engages with the contemporary church. It’s for Bible nerds which unfortunately not everyone will get. Brad East is a surprisingly unique among the reform men. The release is once a month so not to overwhelming either. Come check it out
I was so disappointed that such a friendly, irenic, and thoughtful podcast so uncharitably discussed Comer. Matt’s tone was dismissive, snarky, and unsubstantiated. Brad and Alasdair kept things going in a good direction, but Matt made this a very discouraging episode.
I could really dig this podcast if I had the vocabulary of William F Buckley. It is like eavesdropping on a private discussion between deep theological thinkers. These folks speak their own language, and enjoy their inside jokes. I envision a conversation turning to the subject of eschatology. One whispers, “dispensational.” The other replies, “post-millennial,” and they burst out laughing.
They are truly dull.
Honestly I would probably support you financially if this was a podcast about Boethius, thanks for talking about him! And otherwise being good I guess.
I’ve heard some pretty thoughtful/thorough theological discussions, but the most recent episode on NT Wright was very disappointing. The irony was the lack of nuance, particularly from Derek, who complained of Wright’s lack of nuance. I listened to the whole Carey Neuhoff interview of Wright.

Not the depth I expect from this group ... more

Thoughtful, theology-forward conversations about Scripture, church practice, and culture anchored by a small group of regulars and a rotating cast of scholars and pastors. Episodes balance rigorous doctrinal analysis with accessible discussions on modern issues, ethics, politics, and technology, often featuring guest voices from evangelical, Reformed, and Catholic perspectives. Noteworthy is the emphasis on charity in debate, ecumenical openness, and a mix of personal formation stories with rigorous exegesis and historical reflection. This podcast is likely to appeal to listeners who enjoy deep theological discussion, practical ministry insight, and thoughtful engagement with contemporary culture, without surrendering intellectual rigor for... more
