Today, I'm talking with Aimee Byrd—an author who often pushes us to question norms we usually take for granted. If you've ever felt the pressure to put on a mask or hide parts of who you really are, you'll find this conversation meaningful. In her latest book, "Saving Face," Aimee dives into the masks we all wear, the ways we conceal ourselves, and what it takes to discover our authentic selves underneath it all. We'll unpack some thoughtful questions: What stories do our faces reveal? What changes when we drop the act and allow ourselves to be seen? Aimee shares honestly from her experiences with spiritual abuse, theological reflection, and her personal journey toward healing and authenticity. We also discuss journaling, encountering Jesus in surprising moments, and why truly seeing each other might hold answers for a deeply divided society. If you're navigating issues of faith, identity, or just interested in genuine connection, I think you'll find this episode insightful and practical. Let's get into it—this is about what it means to save face by choosing to show our real faces.Aimee Byrd is author, speaker, blogger, podcaster and former coffee shop owner.

Have you ever felt (or currently feel) discouraged by the church? If so, you're not alone. In this episode, Matt chats with Aimee Byrd about this very issue. In her latest book, The Hope in Our Scars, Aimee offers insights on how to find hope, truth, and beauty for those who have grown disillusioned with the church. In an era when the modern church has become infatuated with power and intoxicated by celebrity culture -- leading many to abandon their faith altogether -- Aimee's voice of reason offers a better way: A way of finding hope in Christ. Drawing on a wealth of experience (most of which was very painful), she offers insightful and encouraging thoughts to those who are struggling to hold on.

The whole system seems to be out of order. It's time we reckon with the abuse, structure, and outworkings of church. But first, it's time to heal, to find hope even in the midst of our disillusionment. In this conversation, Aimee Byrd shares her story of disillusionment with the church after facing public shaming and harassment for writing a book critiquing certain theological teachings. She discusses the pain of this experience and her journey to healing, including finding community outside her church. We talk about ideas for reforming church practices to better reflect biblical principles of community, vulnerability, and mutual care and support among believers. So join us as we sit with the disillusionment, but find hope in our scars.Aimee Byrd is an author, speaker, blogger, podcaster, and former coffee shop owner.

Tale of two programs today as for the first half hour we considered the daily onslaught of secularism's acidic destruction of Western society and life itself, and then switched gears to consider the newest edition of Credo Magazine and its full-throated promotion of, and defense of, -Reformed Scholasticism.-
Had a lot of mini issues to discuss at the top, then looked at an example of horrible racism, then discussed Derek Webb's comments on a video posted by Leighton Flowers, then looked at the language used by Credo Magazine in self-defining -orthodoxy.-

This season we are focusing on theological topics that are important foundations for the church. These will be theological topics that need to be deeply installed as bedrock truths for the followers of Jesus.For the next few episodes, we are going to talk about the Trinity — the one true God eternally exists in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.The Trinity has fallen on hard times for the average Christian. It just doesn't seem that practical to everyday life, so we nod our heads as truth about God and then move on.Fred Sanders writes, “Nothing we do as evangelicals make sense if it is divorced from a strong experiential and doctrinal grasp of the coordinated work of Jesus and his Spirit, worked out against the horizon of the Father's love. Personal evangelism, conversational prayer, devotional Bible study, authoritative preaching, world missions, and assurance of salvation all presuppose that life in the gospel is life in communion with the Trinity. Forget the Trinity ,and you forget why we do what we do; you forget who we are as gospel Christians, you forget how we got to be like we are.” (Deeper Things of God, 9)And yet — I would guess that for most Christians, what Sanders considers to be foundational “a strong experiential and doctrinal grasp of the coordinated work of Jesus Dan his Spirit, worked out against the horizon of the Father's love.” — is something that we have given little thought to.We have a tendency to bring all things of God down so that they revolve around us. Nowhere is this seen than in the intense tendency to make things “practical.” But — our goal is not to bring God down to us, so that he can serve our daily lives, but to bring us up to God that we might behold his glory. To know God is the greatest reward. Of all the benefits that Jesus gives to us: the forgiveness of sins, the amazing power to experience change, the hope of the resurrection, adoption into the family of God, and the satisfying of God's wrath — all of these are but servant benefits to the master benefit of beholding the glory of God. If we were to receive these things and not receive God himself, we would be deeply impoverished. Knowing God is the great benefit of Jesus.For further study:Credo Magazine's Issue on the Trinity - https://credomag.com/magazine_issue/undivided-trinity/Simply Trinity, by Matthew Barrett - https://amzn.to/3k0reczDelighting in the Trinity, by Michael Reeves - https://amzn.to/3CvqTF8Zion Presbyterian Church — www.zioncolumbia.org
Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley are joined by Matthew Barrett to discuss some big picture ideas on the Doctrine of God. Questions Covered in This Episode:Why did you write “None Greater?”Is an attribute of God something God has or something God is?What do we lose if we lose the Divine Simplicity of God?When we talk about some of these attributes, love for example, how does saying that God is love or that God loves not challenge the doctrine of impassibility? Does God have an emotional life? If not, then how does saying “God loves you” mean anything?What do we do with language that seems to communicate that God is passionate?Can you give a brief explanation of the doctrine of the eternal functional subordination of the Son and what you think of it?Why do you find this view concerning?Helpful Definitions:Divine Simplicity: The incomprehensible God we are speaking of is without parts, His essence is His attributes and His attributes is His essence.Pure Actuality: God is so alive and complete and therefore, never has to be changed, acted upon or moved. He is life without measure.Passive Potency: We have potential that has to be activated in order to be brought to completion. Theistic Mutualism, Theistic Personalism, Mono Polytheism: Describing the God of modern theology in broad strokes. This God is one but not all that different from gods in polytheistic religions. These are gods that might feel comforting to us at first but not that we would worship in the endImmutable: From eternity past to eternity future God is unchanging. God is always the same.Aseity: God is a se, or has aseity: He is self-existent and self-sufficient. Impassibility: God is without passions.Passions: Exist whenever a finite creature is acted upon by, effected by, or even changed by something external to ourself; a change occurs within that moves you.Eternal Functional Subordination: The way we should think of the trinity is in terms of roles and relationships of hierarchy, authority, and submission. The Father has greater authority and power than the Son (Still equal in essence). The Holy Spirit is functionally lower still.Guest Bio:Dr. Matthew Barrett is Associate Professor of Christian Theology at Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Tonight we're going to look at another tenet of Progressive Christianity. This one is built on the idea that salvation is universal, in other words, everyone will be saved. That means everyone… that means Hitler, Stalin, Charles Manson, Osama Bin Laden, and perhaps even Satan himself. It's a big topic so let's get started.

Jordan and Brandon talk with Craig Carter about our recent interview with R.T. Mullins on Craig's comments at Credo Magazine. We cover topics like What are the metaphysical constraints of Nicene orthodoxy? Must we accept Thomistic metaphysics? Should we require Thomistic metaphysics for orthodoxy? Can we affirm Thomistic metaphysics (or otherwise) without restricting what the Bible has to say? Is modern metaphysics is completely at odds with Nicaea? Can non-classical theists affirm creation ex nihilo? And more.Find more info about the London Lyceum or contact us at our website.Resources:1) Interpreting Scripture with the Great Tradition, Craig Carter2) Contemplating God with the Great Tradition: Recovering Trinitarian Classical Theism, Craig Carter3) The Faith Once Delivered, Craig CarterSupport the show
In this episode we're going to look at the life of influential 20th century apologist and evangelical leader, Francis Schaeffer. I'm pretty late to learning about Schaeffer, first being introduced to him through his excellent video series How Should We Then Live near the end of 2020. Through that series and reading about his life I've come to appreciate Schaeffer and his impact on Christianity in the modern age. Schaeffer was a pretty cool guy with his awesome goatee and knickerbockers who happened to do an amazing job communicating the gospel and inspiring a generation. He's sometimes called a modern prophet and while I'm not sure about that he did have a knack for understanding the forces at play in the world and helping explain them through a Biblical worldview.RESOURCES Walking Together: https://www.walkingtogetherministries.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/ImJustMakingAPoint.pdfCovenant Seminary: https://www.covenantseminary.edu/francis-schaeffer-the-man-and-his-message/The Gospel Coalition: https://www.thegospelcoalition.org/article/know-your-evangelicals-francis-schaeffer/Churchleadership.org: http://www.churchleadership.org/apps/articles/default.asp?articleid=42392&Christian History Institute: https://christianhistoryinstitute.org/magazine/article/modern-community-movementWestminster Theological Seminary: https://faculty.wts.edu/posts/10-things-you-should-know-about-francis-schaeffer/Christianity 9 to 5: http://www.christianity9to5.org/francis-schaeffer/Credo Magazine: https://credomag.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Francis-Schaeffer-at-100.pdfIntro Music: Country Strumstick Mountain Hop, by Andy Slater______________________________________________________Luther in Real Time Podcast: https://lutherinrealtime.ligonier.org/rss

His latest—Canon, Covenant, and Christology—is the topic of today’s conversation. Barrett encourages us to read Scripture more like Christians and not like deists. We can do so, Matthew suggests, by observing what he calls the “fuller sense”…by recognizing the divine authorial intent, and observing how the story of salvation progresses from the Old to the New Testament…as the ultimate author and character in this story brings all things to culmination. Barrett explains how Jesus himself uses typology and how it plays a fundamental role in one’s reading and interpretation of Scripture. Don’t miss it!

On today’s Equipping You in Grace show, Dave and Dr. Matthew Barrett discuss Scriptural authority and biblical Trinitarian Christology, help in reading the Gospels of Matthew and John, and why Jesus’ authoritative interpretation is the key to understanding how the mighty acts are given to fulfill the covenant promises, along with his book, Canon, Covenant, and Christology Rethinking Jesus And The Scriptures Of Israel (IVP, 2020). What you’ll hear in this episode Why it’s crucial, we understand the Scripture Jesus read and inherited within His Jewish context were the Scriptures of Israel. Why Jesus’ authoritative interpretation is the hermeneutical key to understanding how the mighty acts are given to fulfill the covenant promises of God. Why the act of fulfillment is so important to Matthew and John’s Gospel and why it helps Christians to read the Gospels. Why it’s essential that our understanding of Scriptural authority be rooted in biblical Trinitarian Christology. Help for evangelicals to understand why they have superior Christological warrant for their view of Scripture than that of their critics. What it looks like to situate our doctrine of Scripture within the structure of divine revelation itself.

The Gospels don't have a 'lower' Christology than Paul, so why has this claim gained ground? To answer this question, Matthew Barrett considers the nature of Scripture, the definition of biblical theology, and the role of systematics in exegesis. Barrett has taken on these challenges in Canon, Covenant, and Christology: Rethinking Jesus and the Scriptures of Israel, the latest entry in the excellent New Studies in Biblical Theology series (NSBT), published by IVP Academic and edited by D. A. Carson. Barrett, associate professor of Christian theology at Midwestern Seminary and Executive Editor of Credo Magazine, argues that a lack of emphasis on the Divine Author of the Scriptures leads one to devalue typology and miss the high Christology of the Gospels.Additional Resources:"Doing Biblical Theology with Geerhardus Vos" (Tool Talk)New Dictionary of Biblical Theology, edited by Brian Rosner, T.
