  • Outstanding

    This is an outstanding podcast. I grew up in a home with a father who went to seminary in the late 60’s early 70’s. I grew up on Fosdick’s theology!! Praise God I left that theology and found the truth in Christ. This podcast is helping me connect the dots between the liberal theology I grew up with and Christianity.

  • Outstanding interviews and production

    I’m blown away by the high production value of this Christian podcast! From the intro music to the sound editing, everything is sharp and perfectly presented. I’m also impressed by the guests brought on the show and the interviews that ensue. I hope this keeps going on for a long long time.

  • The Christianity and Liberalism series is remarkable

    This is well produced and has some deeply insightful perspectives applying one of the most important books of the last century to this century where the subissues are different but not the core issue. You can have Christianity or (theological) Liberalism but not both.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Effectual Calling w/ Paul Woo | Redemption Accomplished and Applied (3)
Q: How does Murray's view handle the role of human response in light of divine sovereignty?
Human response remains real (believing, repenting) but is enabled and determined by God's unilateral grace; true freedom is living in accord with God's will, enabled by the Spirit, not a self-caused act apart from grace.
Effectual Calling w/ Paul Woo | Redemption Accomplished and Applied (3)
Q: Who's the author of the effectual call according to Murray?
Murray presents a twofold answer: God as the ultimate author in a general sense, and God the Father as the specific agent in the effectual call, underscoring a monergistic, triune governance of salvation.
Prayer, Gratitude, and the Christian Life w/ Dr. Greg Parker Jr.
Q: Why translate Magnalia Dei now, and how does the new edition differ from the first edition?
The translation aims to make Bavinck accessible to contemporary readers while preserving Dutch terms; the second edition updates translation choices, reduces redactions, and clarifies the text to better reflect Bavinck's intended meaning for modern readers.
Prayer, Gratitude, and the Christian Life w/ Dr. Greg Parker Jr.
Q: What distinguishes Kuyper's Heidelberg Catechism commentary from his other works, and why is this pastoral orientation important?
Kuyper's Heidelberg Catechism commentary emphasizes accessibility and pastoral care, aiming to explain complex theology to the everyday reader and connect theological ideas with practical living and gratitude.
Prayer, Gratitude, and the Christian Life w/ Dr. Greg Parker Jr.
Q: Can you tell me a little bit about your paper and the themes of Ascent and Descent and Abraham Kuyper's Exposition of the Lord's Prayer?
The paper explores how Kuyper moves between ascent and descent, using mountaineering imagery to show Christ's humanity and humanity's finitude, while also using these themes to discuss prayer and the Christian life as a lived, communal practice.
