    Promoting a card-carrying critical race theorist like Jarvis Williams was surprising. I’m not interested in hearing about a false gospel. Unsubscribed!

  • This one will get you thinking…

    I have tried to get into a few different podcasts, but I haven’t found any that I consistently enjoy as much as the London Lyceum. I greatly appreciate the charitable disposition of the hosts towards their guests, and the weight of the subject matter that they tackle in each episode. I come away from every episode having learned something new. Simply put, this is the best podcast out there for serious Christian thinking from a confessional Baptist perspective. I highly recommend!

  • Avoid these guys - they are playing word games

    I’m a new listener and was initially encouraged, but they’ve gone far afield in their latest episode. They seem to not know what they are talking about and are confused on basic definitions. Allowing these Arminians on and giving them a platform to confuse people on definitions. Apparently, every historian was wrong about Ariminus. These guys are not serious confessional baptists.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

New Christianity for the New South with Paul Sanchez
Q: remind us where you are located now and what you primarily teach?
Paul explains he is at Oklahoma Baptist University in Shawnee, Oklahoma, teaching a range of subjects from classical studies to Baptist history and ethics, with a strong emphasis on undergraduates.
Christological Dogmatics with Glenn Butner
Q: What is your take on the beatific vision in relation to Jesus during the earthly ministry?
He admits uncertainty and treats it as an open question, not something he wants to dogmatically settle in this work.
Christological Dogmatics with Glenn Butner
Q: Is penal substitution a necessary element of Christological Dogmatics?
He affirms penal substitution but notes it depends on developing a fuller account of divine wrath; he expects space for disagreement while maintaining that some form of substitution occurs.
Christological Dogmatics with Glenn Butner
Q: How would you explain the Two Natures to a younger student without oversimplifying?
He uses the mule analogy to illustrate harmony rather than blending, emphasizing distinct natures joined in one person, and stresses the continuity with scripture and early church thought.
Christological Dogmatics with Glenn Butner
Q: Did you always have it in your mind that you were going to write Christological Dogmatics?
The guest describes how his work grew from teaching the Trinity and a broader interest in synthesize across traditions, aiming to bring classroom and pastoral concerns into a unified framework for Christology.
