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 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.

A Remembrance Day conversation with Nate Wright, Dr. Michael Thiessen, and Dr. Joe Boot: why Christians have a duty to remember the fallen, what Scripture says about sacrifice and just war, and how a viral clip from 100-year-old veteran Alec Pennstone exposes the West’s moral drift.

A Remembrance Day conversation with Nate Wright, Dr. Michael Thiessen, and Dr. Joe Boot.
Michael Thiessen, Joe Boot, and Nate Wright unpack how Christians can practice genuine hospitality to immigrants without losing the cultural and legal unity of a nation. Drawing on Exodus, Leviticus, Deuteronomy, and Psalm 2, they argue for care for the sojourner, one law for native and foreigner, and real integration through shared public life—pushing back on church antinomianism and the “multiculturalism = virtue” assumption. They also address the “coercion” objection (every institution disciplines) and why rulers still owe public allegiance to Christ.

Dr. Michael Thiessen and Dr. Joe Boot preview the Ezra East conference (Nov. 1, 2025, Ingersoll, ON) and tackle one of the West’s most urgent questions: How should Christians think about immigration? Joe walks through the major waves of immigration to the US, UK, and Canada and shows why not all immigration is the same—older migration from Christianized nations was far less destabilizing than today’s government-engineered mass migration from non-Christian contexts. They discuss how secular, globalist elites have used “multiculturalism” to dilute the Christian character of Western nations and why importing rival law orders (like Sharia) is not the same as church courts or Christian mediation. They also highlight key themes for the conference: Islam, immigration, the loss of Christian culture, and recovering a biblical balance between hospitality and preserving community. In the Premium+ post-show, Michael asks Joe: Why do Islamists and the radical left keep teaming up (e.g. “queers for Palestine”)? Joe explains their shared enemy (Christianity), shared totalitarian impulse, and political convenience.

Dr. Michael Thiessen and Pastor Nate Wright get practical about what it means to build Christian culture at the national level. Picking up from last week, they argue that freedom is only secure when it’s tethered to Christ—and then work through the “messy details” Christians must think through: covenantal nationhood, immigration and oaths, public worship, courts and penalties, and the Lord’s Day. In this conversation, they cover: * Why nations are covenantal, not merely ethnic, and why that matters for law and belonging (Ruth, Rahab, Kuyper, Rushdoony).* Immigration & citizenship: the biblical categories of sojourner/resident/citizen; why oaths to God and constitutional loyalty are essential; equal civil justice without parallel legal systems.* Public worship & free speech: protecting public order (no high places, no public idolatry or blasphemy) while safeguarding reasoned religious dispute.* Courts & penalties: replacing warehousing prisons with restitution and structured bond-service, reserving capital penalties for capital crimes.* Lord’s Day in public life: civil rest that protects worship without policing private piety.* Common objections (“Isn’t this illiberal?” “What about free speech?”) and why law is a teacher.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Pastor Nate Wright, and Dr. Joe Boot discuss the implications of Charlie Kirk's death and the church's response to it. They express concern over the reluctance of many church leaders to acknowledge Kirk's martyrdom and the broader cultural implications of this silence. The conversation delves into the truncation of the gospel, the political nature of the Christian message, and the need for the church to engage with cultural issues rather than retreating into silence. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the gospel as a transformative force in society and the necessity of addressing violence and injustice from a biblical perspective.

Dr. Michael Thiessen, Pastor Nate Wright, and Dr. Joe Boot discuss the implications of Charlie Kirk's death and the church's response to it.
In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot and Pastor Nate Wright discuss the politics of civil war while attending the Ezra Family Camp in Ontario, Canada. They reflect on the social and political conditions in various Western nations, particularly the UK and Canada, which suggest a growing potential for civil unrest. They delve into markers of civil war, including polar factionalism, downgrading of dominant cultural groups, and loss of faith in political institutions. The episode also touches on historical and biblical insights into the generation of such conflicts, highlighting the religious and cultural decay contributing to current crises. They conclude by questioning how Christians should respond to these turbulent times and foreshadow further discussions on practical responses to potential civil conflicts.Episode Resources: Are We Headed for Civil War? - David Betz | Triggernometry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3h49O0AGxx0; NEW!!!
