How Catholicism Turned Me Protestant with Onsi Kamel (Reformation Series Ep.07)
Wednesday Dec 13, 2023
Wednesday Dec 13, 2023
Onsi Kamel joins us to talk about how his study of Roman Catholicism made him Protestant. In this episode we discuss the ways Roman Catholicism appealed to his need for certainty and hunger for historical rootedness. He also talks candidly about the influence of the famous Anglican-turned-Roman Catholic theologian John Henry Newman. He shares ways Newman challenged his thinking as well as ways he found the theologians conclusions unsatisfying. Onsi also speaks on the future of ecumenical dialogue and the importance of engaging with the Reformers.

Calvin’s Cure for Cage Stage Calvinists (Reformation Series Ep.06)
Wednesday Dec 06, 2023
Wednesday Dec 06, 2023
Do you or someone you love suffer from “Cage-Stage Calvinism?” We have the antidote from the original Calvinist himself, John Calvin. In this episode we look at the first two chapters of his classic work A Little Book on the Christian Life to hear practical and pastoral advice from Calvin on connecting doctrine to life, loving self-sacrificially, and living generously with our money. Our hope is that through this episode you’ll see Calvin for who he truly is: not an ivory tower theologians concerned only with abstract notions of predestination and election, but a pastor and shepherd of people striving to live godly lives. He encourages us to celebrate small wins, persevere through trials, and worship God with all our being.

Dr. Matt Hoskin of the Davenant Institute joins the show to talk about how Protestants can benefit from the Desert Fathers. The Desert Fathers left civilization in order to seek God with a single mind. They fasted, took vows of celibacy, and fought the occasional demon. Our modern eyes look at the Desert Fathers with cynicism, but that betrays a lack of understanding on our part of the spiritual realities that constantly surround us. Dr. Hoskin encourages us to see the wisdom of the Desert Fathers especially in an age of technological distractions. They may provide the key to waking us up from our own spiritual apathy toward a life dedicated to God.

How the Reformation Began (Reformation Series Ep.03)
Tuesday Nov 14, 2023
Tuesday Nov 14, 2023
In this episode we discuss Martin Luther’s theological breakthrough that set the stage for the Reformation. He did not set out to start a movement, but rather wanted to debate with integrity and honesty the malpractice of the Roman Catholic church. This desire led him down a path that pit him against the Catholic church, the Pope, and the Holy Roman Emperor himself. Luther’s breakthrough reverberates through history until this day. Join us as we talk about his life, theology, and famous insults.

John Henry Newman once remarked that, “To be deep in history is to cease to be Protestant.” Dr. Michael Haykin of Southern Seminary disagrees. Join us for a fascinating conversation on what Church Fathers like Cyprian, Athanasius, Augustine, Ignatius, Irenaeus, Clement, and others thought about baptism, the Lord’s Supper, and polity. We also talk about common misconceptions about the Church Fathers and why their example of deep theological reflection an earnest pursuit of holiness provide a model of faithfulness for Christians in a secular world. We also discuss whether John MacArthur is a Bishop and why Presbyterians are wrong about infant baptism!

Leading Through Church Conflict with Steven Lee
Tuesday Oct 24, 2023
Tuesday Oct 24, 2023
We welcome Pastor Steven Lee of the North Church in Minneapolis, MI to share his insights on the subject of conflict within the church. We discuss the importance of feedback among leaders and staff as well as the importance of having a thick skin when engaging difficult topics. Steven shares his own experience of leading a large church through the complexities of race, politics, COVID, and an assortment of other social issues facing the church. We also talk about the tension of balancing thoughtful listening with decisive leadership in a polarized age. Steven also shares how he deals with criticism on a personal level. On the one hand, you cannot let people’s opinions dictate your decisions, but on the other hand leaders must develop self-awareness of their own shortcomings and blind spots. If you’re wondering how Christians can maintain unity while also hold to strong opinions then this is the episode for you.
