Theology Throw Down episode 14 The Christian Podcast Community podcasters get together to talk about music; in the church and in our personal life. Some of the topics discussed are things like what types of music should be used in church? There are differences some say only the psalms should be sung in church, others sing hymns and some use more contemporary music. It can be used to affect our emotions. Sometimes the lyrics could be great but the way a song is sung could be inappropriate in a church worship service. The question in a worship service the only question that should be asked is, what does God want to hear? This question led to a discussion about is there music that is not appropriate for a church worship service. The key to the discussion is to ask what is the worship service for and the answer is to worship God. Therefore, what is sung in church must be directing people to worship God. The other area of discussion was in our personal life what music should we listen to? Can we listen to songs that is not necessarily Christian yet still be clean and wholesome? Some music can help with soothing and can help with healing or setting a better mode. Other music causes us tense up and gets agitated. Therefore, we do need to think through what we listen to and why? One of the questions asked of some Christians is can Christians listen to secular music? How much of what we listen to is nothing more than nostalgia to us because we grow up listening to that style?

Music – What Should We Think About It?

Theology Throw Down episode 13 Are celebrity pastors helpful or harmful? Unfortunately, it's a difficult question to answer because there are so many factors. There is an important difference between celebrity pastors being famous for just being famous and preaching the word of God; one can be beneficial while the other may cause spiritual damage. That disparity should not mean that we avoid any person who has reached fame however--instead, let us rather take advantage of this opportunity by getting involved with our local church instead! The team of Christian Podcast Community podcasters discusses these issues. They also discuss the importance of the local church versus a preacher who is just famous for being famous. Whether celebrity preachers are helpful or harmful is a hotly debated question. The Christian Podcast Community podcasters discuss the pros and cons of both situations, most notably how much easier it can be to get involved with your local church as opposed to getting excited about someone you do not know who may have one good sermon every now and then.

COVID-19 How Should the Church Respond?

Theology Throw Down episode 5 We set up a discussion on what is the law and the gospel. That started the team off to discussing theonomy and the view of taking dominion over things including culture. In the topic of the law and gospel, some explained the use of the law in sharing the gospel. Part of that was a view called New Covenant Theology and their view of the law of Christ. There was some great discussion and clarity for and against to the tri-part division of the law (civil, ceremonial, and moral). One of the questions mored the conversation into a discussion of the Hebrew Roots Movement and Christians that want to live under the law. Should Christians, who have the gospel and under grace, obey the law or are we free to do anything under grace.   Resources: Theology Gals: The Sabbath with Ken Golden Theology Gals: The Sabbath | Episode 63 Rapp Report: Sabbath, to honor or not to honor?
