Live From Seminary: The Kingdom of Heaven and Christian Nationalism

We dive right into some of my favorite books from my Hermeneutics class in this episode. I introduce you to principalism from Duvall and Hay's book Grasping God's Word  and give a brief overview of Misreading Scripture through Western Eyes by O'Brien and Richards. Buckle up for some nerdy-yet-helpful content!

Live From Seminary: Principlism and Western Preunderstandings

Back from my unintentional hiatus with some life updates, new direction for the podcast and a brief glimpse of what I have been learning.

Live From Seminary: Update and New Directions

My dear friend Matt joins me in this episode as we discuss the Crappy Christian Phrase "I just want you to show up, God". Whether it's doubting God's presence, questioning what He wants us to do next, or wondering where God is in the midst of suffering, this episode covers all the bases.

12 - "I just want you to show up, God"

Continuing our series "Crappy Christian Catch Phrases", special guest Henry discusses why the "name it and claim it" theology is dangerous, and helpful ways we can view God based on what scripture really tells us.

11 - "Name it and Claim it"

This is the first episode in our new series "Crappy Christian Catch Phrases: Debunking the weird things Christians say that the Bible never did". Give a listen to hear why we hate this phrase, why it's Biblical wrong, and what we think is an accurate alternative perspective.

10 - "God never gives you more than you can handle"

I don't have any answers, any "right" way to think or feel or do during this time of quarantine from COVID-19. But hopefully my musings and "in-process" state is comforting in solidarity for your life and your faith.

9 - The Quarantined Faith

What is a "quiet time" and how do I do that? And what is this fellowship thing? Why do either one of them matter as a Christian?

8 - Quiet Time & Fellowship (Defining the Terms)

What am I giving up and how am I supposed to do that? Is this really something I can do in my life or just a pithy cliche?

7- Give It Up To God (Defining the Terms)

Did God call them and not me? How do I know if I am called? And what exactly does it mean to be called? In this episode we unpack more of what our primary calling is as Christians and how we can figure out our specific secondary calling.

6 - God Called Me to ... (Defining the Terms)

What do we have freedom from exactly? And how does that impact my life as a Christian?

5- Freedom in Christ (Defining the Terms)

Is it a noun? A verb? Some people say it as advice, others use it as a catch-all phrase for individual Christian faith. What does it really mean and how do we do it?

4- Defining the Terms: Walk with God

Who is this Holy Spirit thing and how in the world are we "filled"?

3- Defining the Terms: Filled with the Holy Spirit

What are these long words and why do we care about them in the Christian faith?

2 - Definining the Terms: Justification, Sanctification, and Glorification

What exactly does it mean to be "washed in the blood of Christ"?

1 - Defining the Terms: Washed in the Blood of Christ

Your instigator for conversations on the Christian Faith, The Bible, and how we can apply it to our lives.
