Chase sits down with Isaac Botkin of T.REX ARMS and author of Path of Liberty for a wide-ranging conversation on the biblical foundations of self-defense, the strange world of GunTube, why John Piper is wrong about home defense, what red flag laws actually do to common law, Protestant resistance theory and the 250th anniversary of America, and why AI is the new gunpowder. They get into Palantir, decentralization, the future of corporate America, and whether the citizenry is virtuous enough to handle the tools coming our way.

Christians have done plenty of thinking about faith and domestic politics — poverty, abortion, local justice. But almost no one has systematically asked what it looks like to follow Jesus in international relations. Robert Joustra, author of Christ and Covenant in Global Politics: A Christian Introduction to International Relations, joins Brian From to fill that gap. He tackles America First nationalism head-on, arguing that loving one's country is genuinely biblical — fifth commandment stuff — but that ordered love is very different from whitewashed love or willful blindness. He applies the just war tradition to the war in Iran, making the case that all war properly conceived is a form of neighbor love aimed at reconciliation. And he closes with a biographical story about his Dutch father, born under Nazi occupation in 1943, who got his first taste of chocolate from a Canadian soldier — a picture of what war at its most just can look like. A timely, unusual, and genuinely illuminating conversation for anyone trying to think Christianly about a complicated world. Robert is joining the faculty at Calvin University in Michigan.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of The Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot and Dr. Michael Thiessen think Christianly about Marxism — not as a political or economic theory, but as a religious worldview offering a counterfeit vision of salvation, history, and liberation. Joe traces Marx's roots in Hegel and Rousseau, unpacks dialectical materialism and conflict theory, and shows why Marxism is a fundamentally destructive project. Drawing on Marx's own writings and Saul Alinsky's Rules for Radicals, Joe and Michael expose how Marxism parodies the Christian story — borrowing categories like alienation, reformation, justice, and freedom while emptying them of objective content. The result is a messianic vision driven by envy and resentment, with ordinary people serving as the cannon fodder of an undefined utopia. Against this counterfeit, Joe sets the true paradigm of liberation: the Exodus. From Passover blood to Sinai law, the biblical story is recapitulated in Christ — the greater Moses, the greater Joshua, the true Passover Lamb — who delivers his people not into lawless utopia but into a kingdom of righteousness, holiness, and dominion. Marxism offers a savior who covets your stuff. Christianity proclaims the Good Shepherd who laid down his life for the sheep.

How did we get here? From the Enlightenment to the rise of Postmodernism, the landscape of what we believe about God has shifted beneath our feet. In this episode of Thinking Christian, Dr. James Spencer sits down with renowned theologian Dr. Roger E. Olson (Emeritus Professor at Baylor University) to map out the fascinating—and often turbulent—history of modern theology. They explore the tension between tradition and the "modern mind," discussing how giants like Schleiermacher, Barth, and Bonhoeffer navigated a world that was rapidly deconstructing old certainties. Whether you're a theology nerd or just trying to understand the intellectual roots of your own faith, this conversation provides a vital compass for the journey. In this episode, we discuss: The "Modern" Dilemma: What happens when theology tries to accommodate the demands of the Enlightenment? Reconstruction to Deconstruction: Understanding the shift from building grand systems of thought to the skepticism of the 21st century. The Giants of the Faith: Why figures like Karl Barth and Dietrich Bonhoeffer still matter for your walk with Christ today. The Evangelical Response: How believers can engage with modern ideas without losing the core of the Gospel. Finding Your Place: How understanding the history of ideas helps you situate your own beliefs in a chaotic world. Join us for a deep dive into the ideas that shaped the modern church and discover how to think Christianly in an era of reconstruction and deconstruction.

This week was Brian's birthday — and it turns out he shares it with Star Wars Day. That's all the excuse needed to bring Plugged In's Adam Holtz into the conversation for a deep dive on George Lucas's galaxy far, far away. How did a $10 million film with an uncertain release become a cultural watershed that changed cinema forever? What did Lucas actually borrow from — Joseph Campbell, Kurosawa, Flash Gordon, Eastern religion, the Bible — and what does that mean for Christians trying to engage it thoughtfully? Adam breaks down the Force as a theological concept, why the original trilogy still holds up for family viewing, and what went so wrong with the sequel trilogy that Disney may be looking to erase it from canon entirely. A fun, fast conversation perfect for any Star Wars fan trying to think Christianly about one of the most enduring stories in pop culture.

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Pastor Nate Wright, Dr. Joe Boot, and Dr. Michael Thiessen continue their discussion on thinking Christianly about history. They explore how Christians should approach historical facts, disputed narratives, propaganda, and conspiratorial thinking without abandoning confidence in truth or God’s providence. Rather than interpreting history through secular neutrality, secret knowledge, or hidden powers, Christians are called to discern historical claims through Scripture, take facts seriously, reject scapegoating, and remember that Christ—not elites, cabals, or conspiracies—is sovereign over all things.

Kevin speaks to Joe Boot about his new book, Think Christianly. They discuss the fatal error of politics as a realm governed purely by natural reason, without the need for special revelation…how the "privatizing" of God's Word to family and church brought forth secularism…the nature of the church as a fundamentally political institution…and how to apply Christ's rule to politics.

Dear friends,The commandments of 1 Corinthians 6:15-20 are obvious: flee sexual immorality and glorify God in your body. However, Paul does not simply give commandments; he gives the rationale behind them. The rationale has to do with the meaning of the body in his thinking in terms of our creation, our resurrection, and our marital union with Christ. This densely argued paragraph provides for us a Christian understanding of ourselves as well as our motivation to live Christianly. I hope you enjoy hearing Peter and I struggling to grasp Paul's reasoning.Yours,PhillipFreely available, supported by generosity.If you enjoy Two Ways News, why not lend us a hand?

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Nate Wright, Dr. Joe Boot, and Dr. Michael Thiessen discuss how to think Christianly about science and evolutionism. They challenge the modern myth that Christianity and science are enemies, arguing instead that modern science was born out of a biblical worldview. They also expose evolutionism as more than a neutral scientific theory, showing that it functions as a rival religious worldview with deep cultural consequences. Finally, they explore how Darwinian thinking reduces human dignity, morality, and meaning, and why only the Christian worldview provides the necessary foundation for true science and human flourishing.

This week, Pastor Nate Wright is joined by Dr. Joe Boot and Dr. Michael Thiessen to help Christians think Christianly about the escalating conflict involving Iran, Israel, and the United States. Rather than reacting to headlines or repeating past debates about foreign wars, the conversation examines the issue through a Christian worldview—drawing on Scripture, sphere sovereignty, and the insights of Abraham Kuyper. What is the biblical basis for international law? Do nations have a right to defend themselves? And how should Christians think about war, treaties, and global conflict in a fallen world? The goal of this episode is simple: to help believers move beyond political talking points and think Christianly about international conflict, justice, and the responsibilities of nations under God’s law.

Preston Sprinkle joins Levi and Jennie for a candid, hilarious, and deeply thoughtful conversation around his newest book, From Genesis to Junia: An Honest Search for What the Bible Really Says About Women in Leadership. Preston shares what sent him on a years-long, thousand-hour deep dive through Scripture, scholarship, and church history without rushing to “pick a side.” Along the way, the crew gets real about how these conversations actually land in local churches: the tension, the backlash, the nuance, and the very human emotions involved. From Jesus' surprising elevation of women, to the “problem passages” like 1 Timothy 2 and Romans 16, this episode is an invitation to slow down, stay humble, and let the Bible speak louder than the algorithms.

In this week's conversation between Dr. James Emery White and co-host Alexis Drye, they discuss a topic that was prompted by a recent blog from Dr. White titled, “From Bad Bunny to Buddhist Monks: Navigating the News Cycle.” Church leaders are often expected to speak to what's happening with the current news cycle. While many attenders realize it's unrealistic for their church to speak to every issue, everyone at some point is drawn to a particular news story they feel demands a response, statement or a stand from their church. So how do pastors and church leaders contend with all of this? Episode Links At the top of the episode, Alexis mentioned how the Church & Culture Podcast topics are inspired by everything from what's trending in culture, to the latest news stories, to other “hot” podcasts, as well as listener-submitted questions. (By the way, if there is a topic that you'd like to see discussed on the C&C Podcast you can submit your questions HERE.) Dr. White mentioned some earlier episodes on the podcast that were drawn from cultural trends including: CCP163: On "KPop Demon Hunters, CCP44: On Artificial Intelligence, and CCP182: On Telepathy. These topics were chosen because many Christians wrestle with how to think Christianly about them and discern whether the Bible has anything to say about them. Then there are episodes about topics over which Christians are divided. These would include past episodes such as: CCP21: On Gender, CCP151: On Spirits and Ghosts, and CCP132: On Near-Death Experiences. Alexis also posed the question about determining which news-cycle issues to address as a pastor to the church. Dr. White referenced two series in particular that he delivered at Mecklenburg Community Church. The first was “Is it okay for a Christian to…” and covered the following topics: watching Game of Thrones, smoking marijuana and drinking wine, gambling, doing yoga, voting for ________, getting a tattoo, having cosmetic surgery or being cremated, participating in a gay wedding, and not going to church. The second was titled, “What the Bible Really Says About…” and covered these popular issues: A.I., politics, immigration, IVF and abortion, and angels. Dr. White also addressed the need to speak to major events when they happen, particularly when there is a need to restore dignity and remind people that we are called to love one another. He noted two events in particular - the murder of George Floyd and the murder of Charlie Kirk. At the time of Floyd's death, Dr. White had a panel discussion at the church, which became our weekend service. You can find “Going Forward: Next Steps” HERE. And then the Sunday after Charlie Kirk was killed, he took time before the series message to offer condolences and a prayer. The transcript from that message was turned into a blog, which you can find HERE.

One of the most effective ways to get our kids to look critically and Christianly through eyes of faith at their rapidly changing culture is to help them understand and apply the truths of God's Word. In fact, this ranks right up there as job number one as we take on our responsibility to nurture our children and teens in the faith. One particularly helpful practice is to sit together in church in order to listen to the Word of God preached in the sermon. The practice of taking notes is one we should both model and teach to our kids. Then, each and every week, use the drive home or a time together later in the day to ask a question or two of everyone in the family. Here are some basic questions to get you started. What's one new thing you learned about Jesus or God? What was the big idea that the pastor was communicating? Was there anything you didn't understand or found confusing? What does what we heard in the sermon mean for our lives? Do your kids a favor, and help them to listen, learn, and apply.

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Michael Thiessen and Dr. Joe Boot continue their reflections on Ezra Institute’s time at AmericaFest, focusing on Dr. Boot’s interview with Lucas Miles, Director of TPUSA Faith. They discuss the need for cultural and political engagement to be rooted in the Church and shaped by a robust biblical worldview, emphasizing the Lordship of Christ, the authority of Scripture, and the reality of human depravity. The conversation highlights why worldview formation—not issue-by-issue activism—is essential for lasting cultural reformation, and why unity around primary Christian doctrine matters in this moment. Ultimately, the episode calls Christians to think and live Christianly in every area of life by answering the fundamental question of our time: Who is King?

In this episode of Thinking Out Loud, Nathan and Cameron engage in a deep theological discussion on the New York MAID Act (Medical Aid in Dying) and what medically assisted suicide means for Christians thinking faithfully about current events. From a Christian bioethics perspective, they explore end-of-life ethics, the sanctity and intrinsic value of human life, and how cultural ideas of autonomy, rights, happiness, and suffering are shaping moral decision-making—even within the church. Drawing on Scripture, Christian tradition, and real-world pastoral experience, Nathan and Cameron examine whether pro-life convictions can remain consistent from birth to death, why assisted suicide is gaining cultural acceptance, and how Christians can recover a robust theology of suffering, death, and hope in the resurrection. This episode is for Christians seeking serious theological reflection on medical ethics, assisted dying laws, and how to live and think Christianly in a rapidly changing society.DONATE LINK: https://toltogether.com/donate BOOK A SPEAKER: https://toltogether.com/book-a-speakerJOIN TOL CONNECT: https://toltogether.com/tol-connect TOL Connect is an online forum where TOL listeners can continue the conversation begun on the podcast.

In this first episode of our Advent series, “Think Christianly About Advent,” Nate Wright, Dr. Joe Boot, and Dr. Michael Thiessen explore what it truly means to think Christianly about Christ as we enter the Christmas season. Starting from family and church traditions, they move into the deeper significance of the incarnation as the moment when the eternal God steps into history, confronting both ancient pagan hopes and modern political idols. Drawing on Joe’s chapter “Think Christianly About Christ” and his article "The New Political Community", they unpack the profoundly political nature of Advent—the coming of the true Priest-King whose kingdom challenges every rival rule. This episode sets the stage for the series by reminding us that Christmas is not just about nostalgia, but about the Kingdom of God breaking into the world.

In this first episode of our Advent series, “Think Christianly About Advent,” Nate Wright, Dr. Joe Boot, and Dr. Michael Thiessen explore what it truly means to think Christianly about Christ as we enter the Christmas season.

In this episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Dr. Joe Boot, and Pastor Nate Wright continue their discussion on Think Christianly, focusing on how the church can recover a truly Christian mind. They examine how secular philosophies, pop psychology, and emotionalism have shaped much of modern Christian thinking, leading to widespread syncretism and cultural confusion. The hosts explore the need for a reformational worldview—one that applies God’s Word to every sphere of life—and why theology alone can’t stand apart from Christian philosophy, education, law, or politics. They unpack how dualism has separated “spiritual” things from “real life,” and why faithful Christian action requires a renewed, biblical way of thinking about the whole of creation. A foundational conversation for anyone who wants to understand what it means to think Christianly about everything.

In this episode of The Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Michael Thiessen, Dr. Joe Boot, and Nate Wright explore the Christian concept of freedom. As they think Christianly through today’s headlines, they examine how modern notions of liberty often depart from biblical truth—and why true freedom can only be found when it’s tethered to God.
