I got to teach this seminar at SuCo, and wanted to share it here for any who want to give it a listen! This first day we talk about the goal of the seminar, as well as Christ-figures in Middle Earth. Thanks to Fleming Ruteledge, Peter Kreeft, Mike Kruger, Louis Markos, and many others whose insights and teaching on these works has been so helpful!

Lewis was known for his Platonism, but what of Aristotle? Today, Matt sits down with returning guest Dr. Louis Markos to discuss the influence of this legendary Greek philosopher.[Show Notes]

Christians today are alarmed by the rising pressures around them. So much of the growing hostility seems alien, angry and novel. But the truth is, the Church has encountered pressures since it was born. None of this is new.To help us gain our bearings, Professor Louis Markos joins the Christian Emergency Podcast. Professor Markos teaches at the Texas Christian University and is the author of 25 books, covering such topics as the early Church, ancient Rome and Greece, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien and apologetics.On this episode, Professor Markos sheds helpful light on how the early Church responded to serious persecution in their own day. How was their experience similar to ours? What can we learn from them and apply in our own lives?We must rediscover Christian history and the history of persecution. Today's show helps do precisely this. Armed with this important insight, the pressures we face will be placed in better context. You will be encouraged, and our circumstances will be both less mysterious and frightening.   If you find this episode helpful, please give us a positive rating and review wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

What's the real purpose of education? Is it just about passing tests—or passing the torch of civilization itself?In this episode, Dr. Louis Markos, professor, prolific author, and champion of classical Christian education, returns to share insights from his new book, Passing the Torch: An Apology for Classical Christian Education. Drawing from Plato to C.S. Lewis, he makes the compelling case that education is soul formation, not social engineering—and classical Christian education is the only model robust enough to raise morally self-regulating, virtuous citizens.Discover why reading the great books is more than academic—it's civilizational. Learn how truth, goodness, and beauty still anchor us in a culture adrift. And be encouraged: this is not a nostalgic movement—it's a necessary revival for the future.

Welcome to another Classical Essentials, a special Best of Basecamp Live series! Over the years, we've had incredible conversations unpacking the foundational ideas of classical Christian education. In this series, we're bringing back some of the most popular and essential episodes to help parents, educators, and school leaders better understand the core principles that make this movement so impactful.Why should Christian students read pagan books? Wouldn't it be safer to stick to Christian authors? Shouldn't we only fill our children's minds with explicitly biblical works? These are common concerns among parents and educators, and in this episode, Dr. Louis Markos offers a compelling answer.Many of history's greatest books—from Homer to Plato to Virgil—were written by pre-Christian authors. Yet, these works wrestle with profound questions about virtue, truth, and human nature—questions that ultimately point to Christ. Rather than being a threat to faith, these books can deepen a student's understanding of God's truth and equip them to engage thoughtfully with today's secular world.

Which story holds up to historical and scientific scrutiny? Which account is more historically reliable?   Don't let the social media hype lead you astray!    Watch this Podcast on Video at: https://creationtoday.org/on-demand-classes/genesis-vs-enuma-elish-did-moses-just-copy-an-ancient-myth-creation-today-show-407/    Join Eric LIVE each Wednesday at 12 Noon CT for conversations with Experts.

We find that we can work definitely towards the formation of character; that the habits of the good life, of the alert intelligence, which we take pains to form in the child, are, somehow, registered in the very substance of his brain; and that the habits of the child are, as it were, so many little hammers beating out by slow degrees the character of the man.  Therefore we set ourselves to form a habit in the same matter-of-fact steady way that we set about teaching the multiplication table; expecting the thing to be done and done with for life. " (The History and Aims of the P.N.E.U. pamphlet)Patrick Egan: "But the Florentine mind of the Middle Ages went further than this: it believed, not only that the seven Liberal Arts were fully under the direct outpouring of the Holy Ghost, but that every fruitful idea, every original conception, whether in Euclid, or grammar, or music, was a direct inspiration from the Holy Spirit, without any thought at all as to whether the person so inspired named himself by the name of God, or recognised whence his inspiration came."

Published in 1932, Aldous Huxley's famous novel has proved quite prophetic regarding several dark realities in our day. Yet, his tale is not the whole story, for Christ still reigns in this brave new world.

It has been said that Christianity simply stole its accounts from Greek Mythology, but could a closer examination of the evidence actually reveal Christ through the Ancient Myths? Could it be that Jesus not only fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies, but He also fulfilled the yearnings of the pagan people written about in Greek Mythology? Join Eric Hovind and Dr. Louis Markos for a riveting look at Greek Mythology through Jesus's eyes!   Watch this Podcast on Video at https://creationtoday.org/on-demand-classes/the-bible-vs-greek-mythology/  Join Eric LIVE each Wednesday at 12 Noon CT for conversations with Experts.

Christians today are alarmed by the rising pressures around them. So much of the growing hostility seems alien, angry and novel. But the truth is, the Church has encountered pressures since it was born. None of this is new. To help us gain our bearings, Professor Louis Markos joins the Christian Emergency Podcast. Professor Markos teaches at the Texas Christian University and is the author of 25 books, covering such topics as the early Church, ancient Rome and Greece, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien and apologetics. On this episode, Professor Markos sheds helpful light on how the early Church responded to serious persecution in their own day. How was their experience similar to ours? What can we learn from them and apply in our own lives? We must rediscover Christian history and the history of persecution. Today's show helps do precisely this. Armed with this important insight, the pressures we face will be placed in better context. You will be encouraged, and our circumstances will be both less mysterious and frightening.    If you find this episode helpful, please give us a positive rating and review wherever you listen to your favorite podcasts.

Most universities today are swiftly accommodating themselves to an increasingly radicalized postmodern worldview. American colleges and universities— a disturbing number of which claim to be Christian —have abdicated their responsibility to train students in virtue and to measure what they teach against cultural standards of goodness, truth, and beauty. But it's not all doom and gloom—there is hope. Christian college-bound students need to keep their eyes fixed on their true and secure citizenship in the Kingdom of God and forearm themselves against the philosophical presuppositions and political agendas that undergird much of higher education today. The Christian students who keep their eyes fixed on the true wisdom that is from above can survive and do thrive in the university. This episode is a discussion of some of the dos and don'ts to forearm the college-bound student.This Postmodern Realities episode is a conversation with Journal author Louis Markos about his Viewpoint article, “Seven or So Exhortations to College-Bound Students” in the 45:2-3 (Fall 2022) edition of the Christian Research Journal.

Many of the top grossing box-office films of all time often feature story lines in some way related to the universe. "A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away" is almost as widely recognized as "In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth." Our guests this week authors Frank Turek and his son Zack sit down with us to discuss their latest book Hollywood Heroes - How Your Favorite Movies Reveal God. They argue that it is indeed possible for Christians to use cosmic and universal themes in these films, including morality, beauty, and teleology, to point our non-believing friends and neighbors to Christ.Frank Turek is an award-winning author or coauthor of several books, including I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist and his latest, Hollywood Heroes (NavPress, May 2022). He hosts a weekly TV program broadcast to 32 million homes and an apologetics podcast on over 180 stations. As founder and president of CrossExamined.org, Frank speaks over 100 times per year, often to youth and college students. He has debated several prominent atheists, including the late Christopher Hitchens and Michael Shermer.Frank Zachary Turek is a career intelligence officer in the U.S. Military.

How well do we know what interests our non-Christian friends and neighbors? How much do we know about what they enjoy or what they believe? Can we take the beliefs and interests of unbelievers to build common ground and facilitate conversations about Jesus and the Gospel? Our guests this week and next on the Profile, as well as we here at Watchman, say "Absolutely yes!" Author and Christian apologist Frank Turek and his son Zach join us to discuss their latest book, Hollywood Heros - How Your Favorite Movies Reveal God. They share with us how they have thoughtfully mined popular movies of the last several decades for gems of Gospel truths as well as how they use these films as vehicles for conveying apologetic arguments that might be unfamiliar to non-believers. Frank Turek is an award-winning author or coauthor of several books, including I Don't Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist and his latest, Hollywood Heroes (NavPress, May 2022).

Dr. Louis Markos comes on the show to talk about his latest book, "C.S. Lewis for Beginners".

This episode focuses on the sad but triumphant tale of the martyrdom of Polycarp. Well-named was our beloved Bishop of Smyrna; “much fruit” is what his name means in Greek, and he has done just that, both in his ministry to the church and in the glorious manner of his death. There are some who claim that Polycarp harbored a death wish, but nothing could be further from the truth. When he was advised to flee the city to avoid arrest, trial, and execution, he humbly complied. But escape was not to be the lot assigned to him by God. Polycarp learned this himself from a prophetic dream that was vouchsafed to him by heaven. In his dream, he lay in bed upon a flaming pillow. When he awoke, he could still see vividly in his mind's eye the image of that pillow reduced to ashes; it was then that he announced to us that he would die, not by wild beasts, but by fire. Though we who live in America in the 21st century need not fear that we will be martyred as Polycarp was, we can learn from his brave resolve and unshakable faith to speak the truth of Christ in love to those in power.

Platonic Philosophy In Christian Theology: With Dr. Louis MarkosIn this episode of The Remnant Radio, we are talking about the Greek Philosophy Plato! Plato had an incalculable impact on western thought, but how much impact should he have on the Christian faith? Many claim that platonic philosophy was responsible for cult groups like the gnostics, because of these accusations many more have chosen to write off many of the early church fathers altogether. Why? Well, It appears that they too were infected with this platonic philosophy. But was platonic philosophy inherently evil and anti-christian, or was platonic philosophy one of the necessary preconditions that prepared for the appearance of Christ? In this highly requested theology podcast, we will be interviewing Dr. Louis Markos who is quite the expert on all things Plato. Dr. Markos has published a book with IVP called "From Plato to Christ: How Platonic Thought Shaped the Christian Faith" which is quite insightful both for the negative and positive byproducts of platonic philosophy within the Christian faith. Donate (Paypal)https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=GC2Z86XHHG4X6___________________________________________________________________________________Exclusive Content (Patreon)https://www.patreon.com/TheRemnantRadio__________________________________________________________________________________We're social! Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TheRemnantRadioInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/theremnantradio/___________________________________________________________________________________Our Favorite Bookshttps://www.amazon.com/shop/theremnantradio___________________________________________________________________________________Michael Rowntree's Church Bridgewayhttps://www.bridgewaychurch.com/___________________________________________________________________________________Michael Miller's Church Reclamation Churchhttps://reclamationdenver.com/___________________________________________________________________________________Kairos Classroom: Use Promo Code Remnant for 10% offhttps://kairosclassroom.com/classes__________________________________________________________________________________The Gospel Of Mark Group Packets https://the-remnant-radio.creator-spring.com/listing/the-gospel-of-mark-workbooks__________________________________________________________________________________Download Free Ebookhttp://eepurl.com/hSCQRvKairos Classroom: Use Promo Code "Remnant" for 10% offhttps://kairosclassroom.com/classes Kairos Classroom: Use Promo Code Remnant for 10% offhttps://kairosclassroom.com/classesSupport the show
