Podcast appearances and mentions of kevin deyoung

According to Kevin DeYoung’s helpful acronym, the Bible is SCAN: Sufficient, Clear, Authoritative. And in this episode we cover the ‘N’: Necessary. The only way we can have intimate relationship with God is if he speaks to us with words. And the fact that God has put his words into writing makes our relationship with him more—not less—dynamic and secure. When we read the words of the Bible, God works again through his words. Scriptures Referenced:Rom 1:19-20; Ps 19; Dt 8:3; Mat 4:4; Rom 10:13-17; John 17:3; 20:30-31; 1John 5:13; Visit PracticologyPodcast.com for more episodes.

Segment 1 • Lots of us in the south cancelled gathering last Sunday due to inclement weather - and there are spiritual consequences to skipping church. • Church isn't something we do just to do - it's a weekly realignment of our lives. • Even when gathering is hard, faithful churches find creative ways to feed their flocks. Segment 2 • Kevin DeYoung models how to preach a one-off sermon with clarity, structure, and gospel power. • Biblical preaching must consider the genre of the text. Historical narrative, poetry, wisdom, and gospels don't all preach the exact same. • The aim in good preaching isn't just increasing knowledge, but to draw sinners to Christ as we learn more about him and are conformed to His image. Segment 3 • Disturbing church protests raise questions for parents: what if your child is trapped in the chaos? • Churches must prepare now — when agitators disrupt worship, there won't be time to get ready. • Comparing violent protests to Jesus cleansing the temple is biblical malpractice. Segment 4 • Churches are absorbing secular values — “Flamy Grant” drag shows prove it's more than a trend. • Postmodern self-expression is replacing reverence for biblical truth in pulpits and pews. • As persecution rises globally, now's the time to clarify our mission: be holy, not popular. ___ Thanks for listening!

Segment 1 • January 9 is the graveyard for most New Year's resolutions—will yours survive? • Don't just read your Bible—savor it. Slow down and mine for treasure. • God's word is an endless goldmine that you can never exhaust. Segment 2 • Even good, expository preaching can miss the point of the text. • Suffering, submission, and sanctification define the Christian life. • Show up to church expecting God to speak and change you. Segment 3 • 2025 contained so many painful losses. • Parenting - raising and training depraved sinners - is simply hard work. • Hard year or not, Christians still raise their eyes in hope. Segment 4 • 2025 headlines: SCOTUS ruled on abortion pills, the PCA named Kevin DeYoung as moderator. • The Anglican Communion appointed a lesbian archbishop, marking a significant shift. • Global persecution rose, antisemitism surged, and Christian nationalism hit new highs. ___ Thanks for listening!

If I were to ask you the question “Who is Jesus”, how would you respond? When you talk to others about Jesus, what do you tell them? The bottom line is there is no more important question to answer in all of life than that one. This question is especially crucial in today’s culture in which it has become increasingly common to conform our thoughts of Jesus in accordance with our own desires and expectations. There was an article posted by the pastor Kevin DeYoung in the Gospel Coalition in 2014 identifying some of the most popular, modern versions of Jesus: There's the Republican Jesus—who is against tax increases, for family values, and owning firearms. There's Democrat Jesus—who is against Wall Street and Walmart and for reducing our carbon footprint and spending other people’s money. There's Therapist Jesus—who helps us cope with life's problems, heals our past, tells us how valuable we are and not to be so hard on ourselves. There's Open-minded Jesus—who loves everyone all the time no matter what (except for people who are not as open-minded as you). There's Touchdown Jesus—who helps athletes run faster and jump higher than non-Christians and determines the outcomes of Super Bowls. There's Martyr Jesus—a good man who died a cruel death so we can feel sorry for him. There's Gentle Jesus—who was meek and mild, with high cheek bones, flowing hair, and walks around barefoot, wearing a sash (while looking very German). There's Hippie Jesus—who teaches everyone to give peace a chance, imagines a world without religion, and helps us remember that "all you need is love." There's Yuppie Jesus—who encourages us to reach our full potential and reach for the stars. There's Spirituality Jesus—who hates religion, churches, pastors, priests, and doctrine, and would rather have people out in nature, finding "the god within". There's Platitude Jesus—good for Christmas specials, greeting cards, and bad sermons, inspiring people to believe in themselves and lifts us up so we can walk on mountains. There's Revolutionary Jesus—who teaches us to rebel against the status quo, stick it to the man, and dream up impossible utopian schemes. There's Guru Jesus—a wise, inspirational teacher who believes in you and helps you find your center. There's Boyfriend Jesus—who wraps his arms around us as we sing about his intoxicating love. There's "Good Example" Jesus—who shows you how to help people, change the planet, and become a better you. Can any of you relate to any of these perspectives? Perhaps, one or two of these interpretations hit close to home. The fact of the matter is there is only one right understanding of Jesus’ true identity. If we want to be effective and impactful as witnesses for Jesus, we need to make sure our opinion and message is ruled exclusively by the authority of God’s Word.

Scripture: John 1:1–3; John 1:14, 18 "Without exaggeration it can be said that every church and every Christian ought to know the Nicene Creed." – Kevin DeYoung, The Nicene Creed.   + Nicene Creed We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible.   And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds; God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God; begotten, not made, being of one substance with the Father; by whom all things were made.   Who, for us and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate by the Holy Spirit of the virgin Mary, and was made man; and was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate; he suffered and was buried; and the third day he rose again, according to the Scriptures; and ascended into heaven, and sits on the right hand of the Father; and He shall come again, with glory, to judge the living and the dead; whose kingdom shall have no end.   And we believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of Life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; who spoke by the prophets.   And we believe in one holy catholic and apostolic Church. We acknowledge one baptism for the remission of sins; and we look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the world to come. Amen. + Jude 3 + John 1:1-3 + John 1:14 + John 1:18 + Hebrews 1:1-3 "Though it is normal for humans to beget in time, due to the imperfection of their nature, God's offspring is eternal, because His nature is perfect." – Athanasius + Homoousia vs Homoiousia   "Jesus Christ is the Creator of the universe. Jesus Christ is the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last. Jesus Christ, the Person, never had a beginning. He is absolute Reality. He has the unparalleled honor and unique glory of being there first and always. He never came into being." – John Piper, Seeing and Savoring Jesus Christ. + It is necessary to believe to be saved. + 1 Corinthians 12:3 + John 17:5 + John 17:24–26 + It is how we grow to love Jesus + It is how we overcome temptation "On Christ's glory I would fix all my thoughts and desires, and the more I see of the glory of Christ, the more the painted beauties of this world will wither in my eyes, and I will be more and more crucified to this world. It will become to me like something dead and putrid, impossible for me to enjoy." – John Owen, The Glory of Christ
