Fuel for Ethics from WWJD? Fake it ‘til You Make it? “Kingdom”? Gratitude? Imitation? or Creation? “As Bavinck works out the concrete content of his ethics in this volume (Reformed Ethics Volume 2), he joins the long tradition of Reformed ethicists and turns to the Decalogue and the notion of duty. That move could be disconcerting for some who have recently turned to the “kingdom ethics” of union with and imitation of Christ because that emphasis is seen as a counter to the role of law and duty in Christian living.” – John Bolt Listen in as we sit down with Dr. John Bolt (editor of Herman Bavinck's 4 volume “Reformed Dogmatics” as well as Bavinck's “Reformed Ethics Volume 1”, and the forthcoming “Reformed Ethics Volume 2: The Duties of the Christian Life”) and have a compelling discussion on WHY we Christians live ethically and what our MOTIVATION for ethical living springs from.

After a bit of a break, this week offers a powerful conversation with author Lore Ferguson Wilbert. We talk about intimacy, vulnerability, and community and the way each connects to the simple act of touch. Her book Handle With Care: How Jesus Redeems the Power of Touch In Life and Ministry includes Lore's personal experiences with appropriate and inappropriate touch, and how that act intersects with God's creative touch and Jesus' healing touch. Lore Ferguson Wilbert is a writer, thinker, learner, and author of the book, Handle With Care. She writes for She Reads Truth, Christianity Today, and more, as well as her own site, Sayable.net. You can find her on Twitter and Instagram @lorewilbert. She lives in New York and has a husband named Nate, a puppy named Harper Nelle, and too many books to read in one lifetime.We also talked about Andy Crouch's book, Strong and Weak: Embracing a Life of Love, Risk, and True Flourishing. You can find his “Four Quadrants” that we talked about in a review by Hearts and Minds Books here. Music by Robert EbbensArtwork by Eric Wright/Metamora Design

For the final episode of this season on The DiscipleMakers Podcast, we talked with a special guest, Byron Borger, about what it practically means for us to live as though Jesus is Lord in all areas of life. We particularly focused on what this means for college students when it comes to their studies, majors , and future carriers.We were blown away by Byron’s passion and excitement for this topic and walked away from our conversation with full hearts and minds. We hope you have a similar experience as you listen and soak up the wisdom he has to share. He paints a beautiful picture of what it looks like to not just be a Christian that studies a specific topic or has a specific carrier, but what it looks like to fully integrate and intertwine our fields of study with our faith in Jesus and use that as a launching pad to reverse the curse of the fall, build God’s kingdom, and share the Gospel. -- Resources from this episode: Check out Byron's Bookstore "Hearts and Minds" Books mentioned in the episodeThe Call: Finding and Fulfilling the Central Purpose of Your Life by Os GuinnessLearning for the Love of God: A Student's Guide To Academic Faithfulness by Donald Opitz & Derek MellebyThink: The Life of the Mind and the Love of God by John PiperYour Mind's Mission by Greg Jao--- Our theme music is:bedtime after a coffee by Barradeen | https://soundcloud.com/barradeenMusic promoted by https://www.free-stock-music.comCreative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unportedhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/deed.en_US

It’s not too early to mark your calendars: we’ll be back with another Advent season, beginning on November 29. I hope you’ll join me, as we wait together for God. In the meantime, everyone needs some rest from time to time, and so I’m going to be taking a little break. But I would love for you to hear from some of my friends while I’m resting! Starting this week, we’ll have special guest-hosted episodes of We Wonder every week, where you can still listen to God’s good words with some lovely and different voices. And I’ll be listening along with you! This week's episode features our friend, Dorena Williamson. Dorena is a bridge-builder, speaker, writer, and church-planter. Her books gently invite children and grownups alike to explore truths that are near and dear to my heart: that God has created all of us beautiful, across the range of human colors and cultures, as well as in all of our different abilities. I’m so grateful she is joining us today! Dorena’s books (linked to Amazon, but I encourage you to buy them from your local bookstore or place an order with Hearts and Minds Books!):  Colorfull: Celebrating the Colors God Gave us Thoughtfull: Discovering the Unique Gifts in Each of Us Gracefull: Growing a Heart That Cares For Our Neighbors You can learn more about Dorena’s work at https://www.dorenawilliamson.com/ Today's Scripture is from Mark's gospel, chapter 5 verses 24 - 34. 24 So he went with him. And a large crowd followed him and pressed in on him. 25 Now there was a woman who had been suffering from hemorrhages for twelve years. 26 She had endured much under many physicians, and had spent all that she had; and she was no better, but rather grew worse. 27 She had heard about Jesus, and came up behind him in the crowd and touched his cloak, 28 for she said, “If I but touch his clothes, I will be made well.” 29 Immediately her hemorrhage stopped; and she felt in her body that she was healed of her disease. 30 Immediately aware that power had gone forth from him, Jesus turned about in the crowd and said, “Who touched my clothes?” 31 And his disciples said to him, “You see the crowd pressing in on you; how can you say, ‘Who touched me?’” 32 He looked all around to see who had done it. 33 But the woman, knowing what had happened to her, came in fear and trembling, fell down before him, and told him the whole truth. 34 He said to her, “Daughter, your faith has made you well; go in peace, and be healed of your disease.” We Wonder is written and hosted by Sarah Dahl, and is produced by Richard Clark and Nick Thompson.

  There is a higher law than human law, one from which the authority and justice of man’s law flows into bountiful life. Accordingly, we often see Christian legal theories in terms of knowledge about law, so that what we know of the higher law informs what we should affirm or deny about human law. But Dean Eric Enlow says that another important kind of Christian knowledge about law is how to praise God in relation to it. This praise stirs up and responds to the joy which Christians experience in law, just as praise does when it recognizes and replies to God’s presence in other parts of creation. Dean Enlow gave two addresses on this topic at the 2017 Christian Legal Society national conference in Newport Beach, encouraging those in attendance to learn to praise God in law.  His first presentation was Joyful Jurisprudence: God's Presence in Law and Man's Praise of God, the keynote for the annual Christian Legal Scholars' Symposium, sponsored by CLS friend and partner Trinity Law School. It was an inspiring presentation and discussion, and the conversation spilled over into the conference bookstore afterwards.  This episode of Cross & Gavel allows listeners to sit in on that conversation, with host Mike Schutt, Dean Eric Enlow, and our friend Byron Borger, owner of Hearts and Minds Bookstore.  Enjoy the conversation! Dean Enlow graduated from Yale University and Washington University School of Law. During law school, Professor Enlow served on the editorial boards of the Harvard Journal of Law and Public Policy and the Washington University Law Quarterly. He has clerked in the United States Eighth Circuit Court of Appeals, and he was in private practice in intellectual-property, international, and appellate law. In addition to being dean of the Handong International Law School, Enlow teaches Christianity and Law, International Intellectual Property, Patents, Private International Law, and Torts.  Byron Borger has been talking books almost his whole life, and doing it well and for the good of Christ's kingdom. Since the early 80's, he and his wife Beth have, through Hearts and Minds Books in Dallastown, PA, lived out a mission to see the body of Christ encouraged and the world around them flourish. They believe that ideas matter and that books are an important part of Christian discipleship-- "a disciple is learner, after all," says Byron. Whether you're in his store, on the phone with him, or at one of the many conferences at which he and Beth serve, it is always a treat to talk books with Byron. Subscribe to his amazing Booknotes here.

Advent is a period of spiritual preparation for the coming of Jesus Christ at Christmas. Advent begins on the fourth Sunday prior to Christmas Day and lasts through Christmas Eve, or December 24. It’s a great way to keep Christ at the center of the season. There are so many different variations and interpretations of Advent customs that exist today. My co-hosts and I are here to share the ways we have celebrated advent in the past and things we would like to try in the future. MENTIONED IN THE SHOW: PRODUCTS: Truth in Tinsel Each day there is a passage of scripture with a corresponding ornament for your kids to create.

If you love books, there is nothing better than talking books with Byron Borger. Byron has been talking books almost his whole life, and doing it well and for the good of Christ's kingdom. Since the early 80's, he and his wife Beth have, through Hearts and Minds Books in Dallastown, PA, lived out a mission to see the body of Christ encouraged and the world around them flourish.

We hope that this podcast gives you at least a taste of what that's like. Cross & Gavel host Mike Schutt wondered what books Byron would recommend during this crazy political season, and he and Byron spend some time talking about Byron's work, books in general, and books on politics. As usual, Byron is knowledgable, helpful, and light-hearted as he tosses out nearly 30 great recommendations on the topics of politics, vocation, leadership, and more. The conversation ranges widely, from Jamie Smith to CS Lewis; from Os Guinness to Katelyn Beaty; from James Skillen to Yuval Levin.  Join Mike and Byron as they talk books and books on politics.
