Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke examine why the Trinity is far more than an abstract theological debate and why the Gospel depends on Jesus being fully God. The guys trace the ancient dispute over Arius, the Council of Nicaea, and the scriptural language Christians have used to preserve the truth about the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Zach recounts Phil's unforgettable one-liner response while standing in the ruins of Zeus's temple.

In this episode of Outlaw God, Dr. Steven Paulson and Caleb Keith continue their discussion of Psalm 51, exploring why Christians continue to hear absolution even after they have already been forgiven in Baptism. They examine the Osiander controversy and the Reformation's teaching on justification, showing why forgiveness is more than a symbol or legal pardon—God's promise truly makes sinners righteous while they still struggle with sin. They also explain why Christians return again and again to God's Word and Sacraments, finding confidence not in what they see or feel, but in Christ's unchanging promise.

P.M. Edition for July 30. The U.S. economy grew just 1.5% last quarter, lower than the previous quarter and falling short of economists' expectations. WSJ economics reporter Harriet Torry explains why the details in the report, particularly around consumer spending, suggest things aren't as bad as the headline number makes it seem. Plus, the buzzy AI-focused hedge fund Situational Awareness, founded by AI whiz kid Leopold Aschenbrenner, sold most of its stock portfolio to investment firm Citadel. We hear from WSJ special writer Greg Zuckerman about why this happened and where the company goes from here. And a big rally in tech companies sent U.S. stocks soaring today. Alex Ossola hosts.

In this episode, we explore why Scripture is the final authority for every area of life. The Bible is not a technical manual for politics, economics, or science, but it provides the authoritative framework for understanding them rightly. We discuss what the sufficiency of Scripture truly means, the conflict between God’s revelation and human autonomy, and the consequences of allowing culture to define ethics, family, education, law, sexuality, and identity. Christians must do more than add Bible verses to secular ideas. We are called to think Christianly, interpret all of life through God’s Word, and ask where the world is setting the terms instead of Scripture.

In this week's episode, Phil EuBank sits down with Pastor Matt Summers to dive into Sunday's message, The System of Merit. Framing Roman Catholicism as our theological parent in the Christian family tree, they explore how a system built on human merit, sacraments, and tradition can subtly turn faith into a tollbooth or a self-funded spiritual insurance policy. Together, Phil and Matt discuss the core contrasts of the Protestant Reformation, specifically Sola Scriptura (Scripture alone) and salvation by grace alone through faith alone. Drawing from Phil's childhood friendship with a local priest named Father Michael, they highlight the vital need to hold deep conviction without losing the humble, loving posture of Jesus. They also turn the mirror on Protestant culture, exposing the invisible performance tolls we often pay when we try to earn God's love or blame ourselves during life's hardships.

Sermon Title: "We've Got A Hearing Problem"*****There is a solitary, humble, wooden structure on a windswept hill in rural New England. To open the door is to engage our minds, our hearts, and our imaginations. In this place, preachers and professors, past and present, come alive as they walk the aisle, ascend the pulpit stairs, and teach…from theology, from history, and from the Word of God. Welcome to the Saybrook Meetinghouse, an audio production of Saybrook Ministries. Saybrook Ministries' vision is to inspire and invigorate Christians with imaginative and intellectual content.Saybrook Ministries' mission is to provide didactic and devotional content from the Christian faith delivered to the saints; recovered and refined by the Protestant Reformation.Saybrook Ministries' prayer is that our content will be (1) to Christians convinced of Reformation truths: encouraging & powerful; (2) to Christians unconvinced of Reformation truths: educational & persuasive; (3) to non-Christians: engaging & prophetic.Saybrook Ministries' four foundational scriptures are: The words of the LORD are pure words, like silver refined in a furnace on the ground, purified seven times (Psalm 12:6). The people who know their God shall stand firm and take action. And the wise among the people shall make many understand (Daniel 11:32b-33a). And those who know your name put their trust in you, for you, O LORD have not forsaken those who seek you (Psalm 9:10). Let us know; let us press on to know the Lord; his going out is sure as the dawn; he will come to us as the showers, as the spring rains that water the earth (Hosea 6:3).

Everyone has enemies. Opposition is part of what it means to be human in a broken world. In this sermon, we look at Psalm 83 and its stark call for God to judge his enemies. We learn how God's justice frees us to radically forgive and love others—remembering that Christ died to save us while we were still His enemies.

NOTE: Due to technical difficulties, there is no audio for the remaining ~10 minutes of the sermon, please refer to the PDF for the sermon notes) Beloved in Jesus Christ: Canons are the standards or rules God established in his Word. Canons are not big guns. Big guns are c-a-n-n-o-n-s. The Canons of Dort (Dordrecht was the place they were written) (1618-1619) are the standards the synod of the church organized regarding 5 major doctrines that were being attacked by false teachers after the Reformation. The one who corrupted these major doctrines (and so robbed the people of truth and robbed God of proper praise) was Jacob Arminius (1560-1609), a Dutchman. Arminius borrowed some ideas from Pelagius, a heretic of the 4th century, who did not believe, among other things, in original sin, predestination, or man's total estrangement from God. In short, Arminius minimized the greatness of God's salvation and robbed God of praise. With these same corrupted Arminian doctrines common today, even proliferating, you must be reminded of these standards so you don't fall prey to these errors, so you don't rob God of proper praise, and so you don't live fearful lives. The 1st doctrine in the Canons of Dort is the Unconditional Election of man. Our headings are: 1. Your Election Was Not Necessary 2. Your Election Was Based on God's Love 3. Your Election is Worked through Preaching Our goals are: That you will love that you are loved and chosen by Christ, that you will love him back, and share the message of his love so the elect might hear and believe.

Al, Zach, Christian, and John Luke trace the Gospel of Mark's surprising answer to the mystery running through all creation: Christ in you, the hope of glory. The guys connect Jesus to the kings, prophets, priests, sacrifices, and promises of the Old Testament, showing how the Bible forms one continuous story fulfilled in him. They also examine why the disciples recognized Jesus' power but struggled to accept a Messiah who would conquer through suffering. The cross ultimately reveals the true nature of God's strength and the radically different life his kingdom offers. In this episode: Mark 1:1–15; Mark 2:1–12; Mark 4:10–12; Mark 6:30–44; Mark 8:1–38; Mark 14:43–52; John 21:15–19; Luke 5:1–11; Luke 22:35–38; Romans 5:8; 1 Corinthians 1:23–25; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Philippians 2:9–11; Colossians 1:27 Today's conversation is about Lesson 3 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition taught by various Hillsdale Professors.

The gospel is deeply personal, but it is never merely private. Jesus did not come only to forgive individual sinners; He came announcing the kingdom of God and was enthroned as King over all creation. In this episode, Joe, Michael, and Nate explore what Scripture means by the kingdom of God, why Christ’s ascension and present reign matter, and how the gospel transforms every area of life—from personal holiness and family life to vocation, justice, worship, and public life. They also address common objections surrounding the already-and-not-yet nature of the kingdom, the continued brokenness of the world, and the difference between biblical confidence and triumphalism. The Christian life is not about waiting to escape the world. It is faithful service under the reigning Christ—building, discipling, teaching, planting, and reforming with confidence that obedience will bear fruit across generations.

Lauren is joined by Puck's very own Malique Morris to run through a full slate of fashion headlines: the Spanx sell-off, the “cookie stuffing” scandal engulfing Phia, Victoria Beckham Beauty's leap past $100 million in revenue, Reformation's $1 billion I.P.O., and plenty more.

The Puritans are often remembered as stern, black-clad settlers who came to America seeking religious freedom. But the real story is far richer—and far more influential—than the popular caricature.In this episode of HIStory Through the Eyes of Faith, we explore the origins of the Puritan movement in England, their desire to "purify" the Church of England, and the growing pressures that eventually pushed many of them across the Atlantic. We follow their journey from the religious conflicts of the Reformation to the shores of New England, where they sought to build a society ordered around their understanding of God's Word.The Puritans did not set out simply to find a new home; they believed they were participating in God's unfolding story. Their successes and struggles reveal what happens when people attempt to build a society shaped by faith and conviction. Join us as we discuss one of the most influential movements in the English-speaking world.Resource for this episode: Church History in Plain Language by Bruce Shelley https://amzn.to/4xx6evc

Ralph Wigboldus has been in the boiling water longer than most of us. A senior pastor in Woodstock, Ontario, and a six-year veteran of the Council of Delegates, he came to Synod 2026 tired and half-hoping someone else would carry the load. He left overjoyed. In Part 1 of our conversation, Ralph gives American listeners something they rarely hear clearly: the Canadian side of the last decade, from the fight over financial autonomy to the push for a separate, more progressive denomination that finally fell flat. This is the encouraging episode. Where 2022 and 2023 felt like trench warfare, Ralph describes a Synod marked by mutual love and respect, disagreement handled with grace. He walks us through his advisory committee's work on Resonate's ten-year church-planting plan and what struck him most: this wasn't pitched as a gimmick to arrest decline, but as the plain mission of the church, regardless of the numbers. Under it all runs the refrain we've carried for two years now: the CRC is moving out of the fight stage of this Reformation and into the build stage. Ralph reaches back to the Reformation itself, and to Calvin's Geneva as a nursery for church planters, to make the point. By the end the denominational vision has come home to a single sentence: it's on us. Part 1 leaves us right on the edge of the practical question we take up next.

Every human being is entrusted with some level of authority, yet we frequently distort this gift by judging others based on our own feelings and preferences. Until God finally arises to "judge the earth," we are called to judge justly, and Psalm 82 shows us how. In this sermon, we explore what it means to do justice in the world.

In 1644 four norcini or pork butchers were accused of killing not pigs, but seven of their fellow citizens, stripping the meat from the bones, then combining it with pig to make sausages, which were then sold to Romans from their shop behind the Pantheon. In the multiple pamphlets describing this supposed crime, the authors of this accusation blamed residents of Rome themselves, who had become so obsessed with meat that they turned a blind eye to such horrendous acts. This fabricated story points to an underlying reality—that in the early seventeenth century, a series of popes dramatically increased the amount of food and wine consumed by Romans, culminating in a per capita consumption of over a pound of meat per day during the reign of Pope Urban VIII (d. 1644). The Barberini Butchers: Meat, Murder, and Warfare in Early Modern Italy (University of Pennsylvania Press, 2026) traces the efforts and activities of a range of actors who strove to bring meat to the Roman table. Dr. Bradford A. Bouley shows how Rome's preoccupation with food was the result of papal policy in the aftermath of the Reformation; food, and especially meat, served as religious and political propaganda, symbolizing the correctness of the Catholic faith and demonstrating the extent of papal power. Dr. Bouley details the dramatic reorganization of Roman foodways needed to satisfy this demand for meat, as large herds of animals had to be funneled from the countryside to the city. This consumption was ultimately not sustainable, triggering a crisis that fueled sensational rumors of murder and cannibalism and eventually, Dr. Bouley contends, sparked the outbreak of civil war, as vassals rebelled against papal oversight. The Barberini Butchers recovers this significant episode in food, environmental, and cultural history, one that brings early modern politics and history into conversation with concerns over human use of natural resources and consumption of animal products that continue to resonate clearly today. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

After visiting Rome and exploring its churches, basilicas, religious art, and historic Christian sites, I came away with five important observations about Roman Catholicism, Protestantism, and the state of Christianity in Rome today.In this video, I examine the continued role of indulgences in Roman Catholic theology and practice, the prominence of Mary in Catholic devotion, and the way many of Rome's churches can feel more like museums than places of Christian worship. I also consider whether Rome is truly as Christian as it appears and why the theological issues raised during the Protestant Reformation still matter for Christians today.At the same time, Rome possesses a remarkably rich Christian history. From the witness of the early church to the legacy of Christian art, architecture, martyrs, and theologians, Rome remains an important place for understanding church history. The goal of this video is not simply to criticize, but to evaluate what I observed through the lens of Scripture and the gospel. What do you think?

In this episode of Thinking Fellows, Adam, Bruce, and Caleb explore whether Martin Luther can be trusted, responding to modern critiques that question his character, motives, and mental state as a way of dismissing the Reformation. They argue that while Luther was at times emotional, outspoken, and flawed, his theology should be judged by how faithfully it interprets Scripture rather than by speculative psychological diagnoses or personal attacks. Along the way, they discuss how Luther's humanity, historical context, and extensive writings have fueled both serious scholarship and polemical caricatures, encouraging listeners to evaluate his teaching on its biblical merits.

Is the Last Reformation movement biblical? Who is Torben Søndergaard? What are the core beliefs of the Last Reformation movement?

Are you serving the purposes God has for you in your generation? Every generation has a judgment, and past generations will judge us. Jesus thinks in terms of generations and groups and the responsibility of each. Do we? We are meant to make a generational impact like William Tyndale, C.S. Lewis, Smith Wigglesworth, and the ones who have gone before us. But the crowd rarely gets it right. It takes those who are willing to stand and serve the purposes of God who have the power to turn a generation to the right path. 

In this episode of Outlaw God, Caleb Keith and Dr. Steven Paulson discuss Luther's famous and often misunderstood phrase, "faith creates God," from his lectures on Psalm 51. They trace how Ludwig Feuerbach turned that phrase into a theory that shaped modern theology, psychology, and atheism, while showing why Luther meant something very different. The conversation ultimately points listeners back to the heart of the Reformation: faith is not a human achievement or projection, but the gift created by God's powerful Gospel.

In the opening episode of The Mission and Message of the Ezra Institute, Pastor Nate Wright is joined by Dr. Joe Boot and Dr. Michael Thiessen to explain why the Ezra Institute exists and why Christ’s lordship extends over every area of life. Originally recorded for Ezra’s new radio program in Atlanta, the conversation explores the false divide between the sacred and secular, the modern tendency to privatize Christianity, and the calling of believers to bring every thought, institution, and vocation under the authority of Jesus Christ. Where have we accepted the idea that Christ has nothing to say about a particular area of life?

What's the actual difference between a spiritual revival and a spiritual awakening? In this episode of Fuel for the Harvest, Nathan sits down with Forge speaker Adrian Despres to break down a question that gets thrown around constantly in Christian circles — and rarely defined clearly.Drawing from church history, from the Reformation to the Great Awakenings to the recent wave of attention around Charlie Kirk's death, Adrian lays out a framework for understanding how personal revival turns into nationwide awakening — and why most revivals fizzle out before they ever get there.In this episode you'll discover:The real difference between revival and awakening (and how one leads to the other)Why repentance — not emotion — is the actual birthplace of revivalThe shocking reason the Second Great Awakening was cut shortHow to move from spiritual addition to spiritual multiplication as a believerWhy complaining is one of the most overlooked enemies of revivalWhat it really means to be a "minister" according to Ephesians 4Whether you're a longtime believer or just trying to understand why everyone's talking about revival right now, this conversation will challenge you to stop waiting on a movement and start being a laborer.

Looked at a recent statement from Leighton Flowers that sure looks a lot like Open Theism, then moved on to some more evidence of how far removed Mormonism is from Biblical Christianity. Finished up listening to a section of Jay Dyer on Tucker Carlson talking about the "ancient church" and the Reformation.

In the second half of our post-Synod conversation, Zack Flipse and Jason move from how Synod 2026 felt to what it means for the work ahead. There's encouragement, but there are also some concerns. The biggest thread here is a worry both share: the CRC has an exciting church planting vision, but plant churches poorly and you can do damage to the denomination. Reformation isn't just about doing more; it's about doing it in a way that fits our ecclesiology. That's why Zack keeps half-joking that we need a study committee on ecclesiology, and why he's unembarrassed to say it: "I want to be part of a denomination that's doing theology." From there the conversation ranges widely. They name the three streams of the CRC—confessionalist, pietist, transformationalist—and make the case that the church is stronger for holding all three. They look ahead to the Christian nationalism study report, arguing the Dutch Reformed tradition is uniquely equipped to speak here, with Kuyper and Bavinck in our own lineage—so long as we actually do the theology rather than just point back to it. And they return to Jason's hobby horse since day one: a denomination is healthy when local churches are engaged, not when they outsource their convictions to Grand Rapids. Zack shares the kids' Heidelberg Catechism project he makes with his daughters—question one, "What gives you comfort? That I belong to Jesus"—because instead of complaining that the resource didn't exist, he decided to build it. Then Jason gives him the final word, and Zack delivers the line that names the whole vision: "Figure out what you can do to plant a church so that more people worship Jesus tomorrow than worship Him today. Let's plant some churches."

The greatest proof that God is real may be far simpler than most people expect. Zach recalls dismissing his mom's uncomplicated answer about seeing God in creation, only to hear one of the world's leading Christian philosophers give nearly the same response the very next day. Al, Christian, and John Luke join him to examine how nature, Scripture, reason, and faith work together to reveal who God is, why blind faith is not biblical faith, and how believers can keep growing beyond shallow social media theology. The guys laugh about Jase promising a 15-minute sermon when he's famously long-winded and come to the realization that announcing only the winner's first name could leave multiple Mirandas wondering if they're the winner of the 'Unashamed' studio visit giveaway.   In this episode: 1 John; James 1–2; Genesis 1; John 1; Romans 1:20; Hebrews 11; Ecclesiastes 3:11; Psalm 139 Today's conversation is about Lesson 1 of Theology 101: The Western Theological Tradition.

In this episode of Thinking Fellows, Adam Francisco discusses his new book The Turk at the Door, exploring how Martin Luther understood Islam, the Ottoman Empire, and the challenges facing Christendom during the Reformation. The conversation examines Luther's distinction between just war and holy war, his study of the Quran, and why Christians should understand Islam without confusing political conflict with the proclamation of the Gospel. They discuss why this overlooked chapter of Reformation history still matters today as Christians engage thoughtfully and faithfully with their Muslim neighbors.

Author and pastor David Forsythe joins the Podcast for Cultural Reformation to discuss his new Ezra Press book, Reformation, Not Revolution: Why God’s Law Matters for Society. In this episode, David shares how his time in missions, pastoral ministry, and politics shaped his conviction that Christ’s lordship extends to every area of life. He and Nate discuss the difference between Christian reformation and revolutionary politics, the abiding authority of God’s law, sphere sovereignty, the distinction between sins and crimes, and why no society can ever be religiously neutral. This conversation challenges Christians to reject both retreat and reactionary revolution, and instead recover a biblical vision for faithful cultural engagement under the crown rights of Christ.
