  • Expand Beyond Particular Specialization and Field

    The episode on Hegel was disappointing—more a collective dismissal than a serious engagement. While one participant showed real familiarity with the thinker, the discussion quickly devolved into pointing out ‘errors’ that often seemed rooted in misformulations, followed by character attacks, semantic quibbles, and other fallacies. It was hard to pin down a coherent, substantive argument against Hegel.

    A key missed opportunity was failing to grapple with concepts like Hegel’s ‘true infinite.’ Unl... more

  • Excellent - Converstional - Edifying

    A great podcast, often conversational, allows the listener to feel like he is at the table having coffee with the speakers. A one-star review complains that the "amount of meat dispensed here is a symbol full" [sic] ** Unwittingly hilarious comment as the take a sprint throgh the Westminster Confession of Failth. **

  • Gabber & Blabbers

    This is the most boring podcast on the Internet, with a bunch of academia nuts, trying to impress us with terminology and their titles and their university degrees, and all of the trappings of institutions called seminaries. The actual amount of meat dispensed here is about a symbol full. This is a waste of time. This is nothing more than an advertisement for the seminary, and a flattering session for its under motivated and under challenged professors.Oops, did I say they’re distinguished profe... more

  • If your Christianity has stalled…

    Listen to my favorite theology profs Scott Redd, Paul Jeon, Peter Lee, Tommy Keene at Reformed theological Seminary DC—full disclosure, I’m a graduate of RTS DC. This is a rich deep honest conversation missing from Sunday School, Small Groups and Bible Studies. Hopefully this will wet your appetite for taking a deeper dive into Scriptures.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Analytic Theology, Bavinck, and Retrieval (ft. Oliver Crisp)
Q: Is Edwards a good example of retrieval, and how does retrieval relate to contemporary doctrinal issues?
Edwards exemplifies retrieval by showing how his ideas about freedom of the will and theosis can be reinterpreted to address modern debates, and retrieval should be balanced with attention to current contexts and the needs of churches today.
Analytic Theology, Bavinck, and Retrieval (ft. Oliver Crisp)
Q: What are the implications of analytical theology in the seminary context beyond the theology department?
Crisp explains analytic theology can form ministers and elders by clarifying doctrine, improving argumentation, and aiding pastoral care, while also having practical applications in hospital visits, preaching, and daily ministry; it's not a panacea but a valuable component within a larger formation.
ShoRTS: Eusebius and the Canon (ft. Michael Kruger)
Q: Tell us a little bit about Eusebius, the church history, why is it important?
Kruger explains that Eusebius wrote the first full-scale church history, is inseparable from discussions about canon due to his four-category system, and provides valuable access to earlier sources, offering a historically grounded, if sometimes biased, perspective on how the canon emerged.
Providence (WCF Chapter 5)
Q: What is the core difference between primary and secondary causation according to the confession?
Primary causation is the creator top-down power that preserves and directs all things, while secondary causes retain real agency but are always under the governance and concurrence of the primary cause.
God and the Holy Trinity (WCF ch. 2)
Q: How should we see the concept of God as without passions to not see him as cold?
'Without passions' refers to not being affected by external forces, which means God is not cold, but his self-sufficiency allows for a deeper form of engagement with creation.
