  • Quality Fundamentalist Content

Ep. 79 - Perseverance and the Threat of Antinomianism - with Dr. Jon Pratt
Q: What is the practical takeaway for pastors and lay readers from your study of perseverance and sanctification?
pastors should balance affirming the believer's status in Christ with urging ongoing holiness, teaching that true fruit and obedience are expected outcomes of genuine faith rather than a threat to assurance.
Ep. 79 - Perseverance and the Threat of Antinomianism - with Dr. Jon Pratt
Q: How did the historical survey of antinomianism shape the structure of your book?
The history provided a foundation to compare modern movements with past ones, helping readers see recurring patterns and characteristics rather than treating contemporary groups as isolated phenomena.
From Student to Shepherd: Developing a Pastoral Internship Program - Ep. 072 with Dr. Matt Morrell and Joseph Schueller
Q: What does success look like for a pastoral internship program in the long term?
Success is measured by ongoing faithfulness and giftedness over time, with interns transitioning into ministry roles and maintaining ongoing relationships with the church and seminary, reflecting a lasting impact.
