Summary: In this episode, Michael Easley and Kerby Anderson reflect on cultural shifts, global instability, and the role of the local church. Anderson highlights the pervasive anxiety among Americans and links it to a culture steeped in uncertainty and spiritual confusion. He emphasizes the importance of Christians understanding their unique callings—whether in politics, medicine, business, or parenting—as a faithful response to today's challenges. Easley and Anderson lament the decline of theological depth in churches and the overcorrection toward relational, program-heavy models.  However, young people are hungry for meaning, structure, and authentic faith. They point to growing interest in liturgy, Reformed theology, and apologetics ministries as signs of revival. Both men underscore the value of low time preference—faithful, long-term ministry—even when cultural progress seems slow. Their message is clear: in a dark world, Christians must stay rooted in truth, reach their immediate circles, and trust God's sovereign plan across generations. Takeaways: Global instability—especially from Russia, China, and Iran—continues to raise valid concerns for national security and Christian engagement. Widespread anxiety is rooted in real threats, cultural confusion, and a growing disconnect from biblical truth. Christians should focus on their God-given callings—whether in politics, business, or family—to impact the culture. The decline of theology in favor of shallow “community” leaves churches spiritually weak and ineffective. Young people are increasingly drawn to structure, doctrine, and meaningful tradition within the Church. True cultural change begins with long-term faithfulness, not quick solutions—our role is to trust God and stay rooted in truth.

This is the eighth lesson in Dr. Camden Bucey's Reformed Academy course, Defending Our Hope: An Introduction to Christian Apologetics. What fundamental commitments lie beneath every argument—ours and others'? In this lesson, we explore the essential concept of presuppositions: the foundational beliefs that shape how people interpret reality. We begin by surveying a range of influential thinkers who challenge the notion of objective, neutral knowledge. Though differing in emphasis, each demonstrate that human understanding is always shaped by deeper frameworks: whether through paradigms that govern scientific inquiry, social structures that define reality, or systems of power that shape what is accepted as truth. Building on this recognition, we turn to Cornelius Van Til, who shows that beneath all such frameworks lie ultimate commitments—religious in nature—that govern how people interpret every aspect of life. This lesson equips you to uncover the presuppositions behind objections to the faith and to expose the necessity of the Christian worldview as the only foundation for truth, meaning, and rationality. 01:06 Understanding Presuppositions 04:02 Key Thinkers and Concepts 10:28 The Theological Foundations of Presuppositions 14:10 The Danger of Autonomy 16:51 The Demand for Consistency 21:56 Compassionate Engagement with Unbelievers 23:58 Summary and Conclusion  Register for this free on-demand course on our website to track your progress, download supplemental resources, and assess your understanding through quizzes for each lesson.

In this second installment on the often-ignored topic of Christian headcovering, we move beyond the biblical mandate to examine how Church History consistently affirmed the practice and how the feminist movement worked strategically to dismantle it.For nearly two millennia, headcovering was universally practiced by faithful women across Christian denominations nearly without exception. But by the mid-20th century, it had all but vanished from the Western church. What changed? Was it new theological insight or cultural compromise?Join us as we explore how second-wave feminism targeted headcovering as a threat to its ideological goals, how pastors yielded to cultural pressure, and why recovering this symbol is about far more than fabric. This is not about going backward. It's about returning to the timeless beauty of God's design for worship, authority, and glory.⁠⁠CLICK HERE⁠⁠ to read the corresponding article to this episode and to get additional recommended reading and listening to explore this topic further.Recommended Resources for Further Study:Michael Barrett's ⁠Head Covering for Public Worship⁠Michael Barrett's ⁠Sermon Series on Headcovering⁠Bnonn Tennant on ⁠Head Coverings⁠History of Quotes on ⁠Headcovering Since the Reformation⁠⁠Head Covering: A Forgotten Christian Practice for Modern Times⁠ by Jeremy GardinerR.C.

Cindy DeBoer joins Stephanie to share her story of transformation—from living the American dream to pursuing a life of simplicity and deep faith. Cindy's family motto sums it up best: “We chose to live simpler so that others can simply live.” Whether that means downsizing, shifting how you spend time, or offering your unique talents, the ultimate goal is the same—living in tune with God's melody for your life, allowing Him to enrich and use you far beyond what the culture's definition of “success” could offer. Cindy's candid memoir offers practical lessons for anyone feeling overwhelmed by the relentless pursuit of “more” or sensing a disconnect between their faith and daily life. Cindy shares the story of her family choosing to live simpler so others can simply live. She asks, What does it look like to glorify God with our finances? In her new book, Far, far better things, she shares that, in the first 12 years of her marriage, she and her husband, although faithfully attending church and following Jesus as best they knew how, were still very focused on "getting ahead," building their bank account, striving to have the best of everything - including having the best house and the best kids. They pushed themselves nearly to the breaking point. She tells us what (who?) stopped that trajectory and got them to turn their lives around and specifically, start asking the question, "What if we lived what we say we believe?” From Success to Surrender: A Life Re-examined Cindy's early adult life was marked by what her community celebrated as success: marriage to her high school sweetheart, good jobs, a dream house with luxury amenities, and busy, achievement-packed schedules for their four children. Despite following what seemed like a “formulaic path,” she and her husband felt empty and exhausted. Their faith, although present, was largely intellectual and routine—church attendance and mealtime prayers—but lacked genuine heart engagement. The turning point came when brave friends challenged them to question, “Where is God in all of this?” This gentle but persistent questioning—along with new friendships, books, and volunteer work—sparked a series of soul-searching prayers: Were they truly living out what they professed to believe? What might God be asking of them that they'd never considered? Small Steps Lead to Big Changes Change didn't happen overnight. Cindy and her husband began with small, tangible acts of obedience, like reaching out to a homeless family from their child's classroom—a move that transformed their understanding of compassion and shifted their mindset from “helper” to “learner.” These steps emboldened them to pursue adoption, welcoming a daughter from Guatemala. The process opened their eyes further to global poverty and injustice, stirring a passion for others that wouldn't have developed in their comfortable status quo. A defining lesson came as they downsized their home—moving from their “dream house” to the “little brown mansion.” This reduction in material possessions brought unexpected peace and joy, as it freed up energy, time, and resources for giving and serving. Most importantly, Cindy observed the positive impact such choices had on their children, making them more resilient, empathetic, and adept at hearing God's voice. The Heart of the Lesson: Simplicity Isn't Poverty—It's Purpose Cindy insists her story isn't prescriptive—not everyone is called to move overseas or adopt a child. Instead, her encouragement is this: Hold your life loosely before God. Ask the courageous question: “Am I truly living what I say I believe?” Trust that God honors even the smallest steps of faith. Simplicity, as Cindy has learned, is not about deprivation, but about creating space for what truly matters—intimacy with God, sacrificial community, and authentic love for others. Cindy's family motto sums it up best: “We chose to live simpler so that others can simply live.” Whether that means downsizing, shifting how you spend time, or offering your unique talents, the ultimate goal is the same—living in tune with God's melody for your life, allowing Him to enrich and use you far beyond what the culture's definition of “success” could offer. Key Takeaways: ·         True transformation often starts with honest self-reflection, hard questions, and small acts of obedience. ·         Simplifying life creates freedom—to serve, give, and connect with God and others more deeply. ·         God's blessings are not just material or circumstantial—they are rooted in intimacy with Him and being part of His work in the world. ·         Every step towards living out your faith, no matter how small, can create ripples of hope, change, and fulfillment. Let Cindy's story be an invitation: dare to ask what God might want to do with your “ordinary” life, and trust that His far, far better things await, one simple step at a time. ABOUT “FAR FAR BETTER THINGS” What happens when you've reached all your earthly goals and you're only twenty-eight years old? What if you've realized the American Dream, and although you're pretty confident it's all a big blessing from Jesus, you still feel miserably lacking in purpose and fulfillment? What makes a reasonably well-off American Christian family walk away from their perfectly scripted life—prestigious careers, dream home, lake house, nice cars, kids' sports, frequent travel, perfect church, tons of family and friends—and follow God to the ends of the earth? How would any young family have the courage to leave all the things the world tells us to strive for and instead choose a life of intentional simplifying, serial downsizing, and two major moves overseas? Cindy's memoir chronicles their family's unorthodox Christian journey that began as a result of praying in earnest: “Lord, help us to live what we say we believe.” Follow along as the DeBoers, a typical average suburban family, finds the courage to subvert a safe and comfortable life for a risky and riotous ride that led them to far, far better things.

This is the seventh lesson in Dr. Camden Bucey's Reformed Academy course, Defending Our Hope: An Introduction to Christian Apologetics. Is there any shared ground between believers and unbelievers? In this lesson, we explore the doctrine of common grace—the means by which God, in his goodness, temporarily restrains judgment and bestows non-saving blessings even on those who remain in rebellion against him. You will discover how this temporary, non-saving grace provides space for meaningful interaction, cultural engagement, and the proclamation of the gospel. Drawing from biblical and theological insights, including historical reflections from Calvin, Warfield, Kuyper, and Van Til, we examine how common grace enables communication without compromising the antithesis. Learn how to faithfully build bridges without erasing the gospel's call to repentance and faith. 01:53 The Nature and Scope of Common Grace  07:20 Common Grace in Redemptive History 09:51 Biblical Foundations of Common Grace 20:24 Common Grace and Apologetics 27:21 Historical Perspectives on Common Grace 35:57 Withstanding Rejection 39:11 Summary and Conclusion   Register for this free on-demand course on our website to track your progress, download supplemental resources, and assess your understanding through quizzes for each lesson.

Welcome to The PerspectivalistToday, I'm honored to host Reverend Grant Castleberry—Marine officer turned pastor, currently finishing his dissertation on Martin Lloyd-Jones. We gather to reflect on John MacArthur, a towering figure in pastoral longevity and biblical faithfulness.Grant's personal encounters with MacArthur go beyond admiration—they shaped his call to ministry and introduced him to Reformed theology. From late-night radio sermons after high school football practices to transformative theological tapes like Chosen for Eternity, MacArthur's influence was profound and life-altering.In our conversation, we explore:How conviction and clarity drove MacArthur's preachingThe weight of biblical authority and expository rigorThe rare gift of decades-long pastoral ministryPersonal reflections: the kind, humble man behind the pulpitJoin us for a meaningful tribute to a faithful pastor whose legacy continues to influence Christian ministry and leadership.

Have you experienced the kind of spiritual rebirth that leads to real change? James 1:19–27 teaches that saving faith isn't passive—it's transformational. In this sermon, Pastor Josiah explores how the Word of God not only saves us but reshapes us. Through vivid illustrations and pastoral exhortation, you'll discover that “real religion” means more than just hearing Scripture—it means receiving it with humility, obeying it with integrity, and displaying it through a life of mercy, holiness, and self-control. The gospel doesn't just inform your life; it transforms it. Why does the life of a true Christian look so different from the world? Listen to this week's message and find out!

Most people don't understand authority. It is either seen as an opportunity or a travesty, a means of personal power or a tool for the subjugation of the weak by the strong. Both of these views share the same misunderstanding of authority—-and it is into this misunderstanding that the gospel speaks. When we understand authority rightly we can live as citizens of Christ's kingdom in a way that manifests his lordship, blesses our neighbor, and glorifies our Father in Heaven. Listen as Pastor Luke Herche preaches on Colossians 3:18–4:1, sharing four truths about authority found in the text: Christ as Lord radically redefines authority; before Christ all are equal; by Christ submission is qualified; and in Christ authority is submission. Sunday Morning Worship // June 27, 2025 ------------------------------- Want to go deeper? Take some time to reflect on the sermon with the following questions: How does Paul anchor authority and submission in the Lordship of Christ? How are our understandings of authority and submission distorted by culture and experience? How are they distorted by the disordered loves of our hearts? How do Jesus' cross, resurrection, and ascension to the Father's right hand each reshape the way we understand authority and submission? What will it look like for you to exercise authority this week as an act of Christ-like service? What will it look like for you to submit to imperfect leaders, remembering Christ and honoring him as Lord? ------------------------------- allsoulspca.org All Souls (Urbana, IL) is a part of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), a Christian, Reformed denomination with historic and theological roots in the Protestant Reformation.

In the wake of John MacArthur's death, how do we avoid falling into the trap of hero worship or idolatry? How can we examine his life so we keep the good things he taught and avoid carrying forward his mistakes? Few American pastors have had a longer or more impactful ministry than John MacArthur. From his focus on sequential expository preaching to his emphasis of Lordship salvation, to his late-in-life transition from Arminian to Reformed soteriology, John MacArthur helped reform the American church in significant ways. But like any man, Pastor MacArthur was not perfect and made decisions and had practices that we should not emulate. In this episode, we discuss John MacArthur's life and attempt to unpack the aspects that should be emulated and those that should be discarded. We believe that this is a God-honoring practice that helps keep us from idolatry and worship of man. Please join us as we discuss this important topic.Listen to the audio version here: Timecodes00:00:00 Intro00:03:14 Expository Preaching00:10:22 Lordship Salvation00:26:39 Charismania00:32:54 Bible Commentaries00:36:52 Sabbath00:50:50 Dispensational Eschatology00:54:48 Cessationalism01:04:34 COVID01:07:05 Celebrity Pastor01:13:25 Money01:15:05 ConclusionProduction of Reformation Baptist Church of Youngsville, NCPermanent Hosts - Dan Horn, Charles Churchill and Joshua HornTechnical Director - Timothy KaiserTheme Music - Gabriel Hudelson

Galatians 5:16-26. From the "New Testament" sermon series. Preached by Stephen Baker.

In this sermon, we follow the Psalmist's own journey to resolve his spiritual doubts and questions as he navigates a world that often seems unfair and unjust.Every human being longs for the right kind of leadership and rule. When we experience good leadership, we want to follow. When we experience poor leadership, we lament and seek other guidance. Series Description: The Psalms are the song book of God's people, and each summer we mine their riches. Their imagery, poetry, and theology invite us to deeper worship of God and remind us of his unchanging character.

We serve a God who will make all things new.

A word to prepare our hearts to receive the message of proverbs 11 today. The times in life we most need the convicting reminder of God‘s word usually require a change of heart to receive it. This is evident in our worship text today. When the prophet Malachi called the returning people of God to order their affairs according to their calling in the promised land, it was not for lack of the book of Proverbs they had failed thus far to do so, but rather their own conviction to apply the words of Solomon.  Hence the prophet called them to repentance in the areas of worship, family, finances, and love of neighbor.  This is the role of preaching yet today.  Thus if any of Solomon's instruction hits close to our home as it is proclaimed in our ears, let us repent and reform.
