In this episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey and Carlton Wynne are joined by Rev. Stephen Spinnenweber, author of Loving the Law: The Law of God in the Life of the Believer, to explore the enduring significance of God's moral law in the Christian life. They discuss the book's development, its theological foundations, and its practical applications for pastors, congregants, and Christian parents. The conversation clarifies the Reformed understanding of the threefold use of the law and addresses common misconceptions surrounding legalism and antinomianism. Stephen offers a pastoral and theologically rich vision for delighting in the law as a gracious guide for believers—one rooted in God's character and purpose for humanity. The trio also touches on civil use of the law, the Sabbath, and the broader cultural and political implications of God's moral order. This episode is a refreshing call to recover a joyful obedience to God's commandments—not as a means of earning salvation, but as the grateful response of those saved by grace and empowered by the Spirit.

Embark On A Sustained Struggle For Holiness! by Shawn Ozbun

Orthodox Priest Says Pope Has “Anti-Christ Aura” – Not the Head of the Church!

In this important episode, the Bishop of Charlotte addresses the recent restrictions on the Traditional Latin Mass within the diocese and offers a candid explanation of the decisions behind them. Drawing on Church teaching, Vatican guidance, and pastoral concerns, the bishop outlines how these changes are being implemented and why they matter. He also responds […]

Let it go, bring it up. Confront, cover. To speak or not to speak - that is the question. This week we talk about millennial video games & the beauty of dealing with YOUR business. The post This IS My Business appeared first on Sheologians.

It's time. We need to move different. We started the Pass The Mic podcast late in 2013, now, more than a decade later, the podcast as you've known it is coming to a close. This is not so much an ending, but an evolution. We still have several more episodes airing every other week, and after the final episode, Tyler will continue on with the podcast under a new name and with a new exciting focus and Jemar will make occasional appearances.   This episode is the announcement but not the ending. We're planning a live, online finale episode later this year that you will all be invited to.  So stay subscribed and stay tuned.  Let's address the natural question: WHY?!?  First, Jemar, Tyler, and Beau are all good.  There was no fallout, blowup, or disagreement that led to this decision.  We are glad to say that closing out Pass The Mic did not come as a result of interpersonal drama or conflict.  We have been engaged in this conversation for nearly a year. We reasoned together and concluded that this season of Pass The Mic has come to an end.  Then we gave each other the time and space to process both the bitter and the sweet that comes with such a significant transition. You'll hear it on this week's podcast episode, our genuine love and affection for one another has never been stronger.  Our deepest thanks for the labor, the wisdom, and the friendship of the whole team both seen and unseen who have made this show possible. So the shift is not about drama, it is about adapting.  This decision did not arise from a place of fear or scarcity but of health and growth. We've been saying for several episodes now that we have to move differently.  The culture is changing. Our political situation is in crisis. The church is being called to witness in a new way.  Tyler is doing life-shifting work as a pastor, and he has so many more ideas for other projects that he is now free to pursue. Beau is doing the vital work of storytelling employing imagination to spark conversation and joy. Check out his upcoming show at MidnightHTX.com. Ryan has a new day job, and is faithfully serving his church community. Jemar has been sensing the Holy Spirit moving him to do more online teaching and acting as a bridge between academic study and the church practice. Be sure to follow his next project  “The Justice Journey: A Biblical Guide to Making Wrong Things Right.”  We will, of course, miss Pass The Mic.  This has been part of our lives for more than ten years. We have had so many laughs, memories, and bonding moments.  Most importantly, you, our listeners and viewers, have been with us for the journey.  What we will miss most is the community we've formed around the show and the ways you all have encouraged us, challenged us, and loved us throughout this show.  In times when the broader evangelical and Reformed community rejected us for our commitment to Christ and the blackness he gifted us with, you have been our steady and supportive siblings in the faith.  Remember to keep listening. We still have more episodes coming, a live finale episode, and a new show by Tyler launching on the same podcast feed.  With gratitude for what lies behind and expectation for what lies ahead, we say:  See you soon on the next…?

Pope Leo XIV in Trouble with Critics Again | The Father’s House Controversy

James 1:5-11. From the "The Letter of James" sermon series. Preached by Mike Tiberi.

In this sermon, we examine the truth that God is just judge, and we explore why that's good news for the world.Psalm 64 is a psalm full of reversals: the wickedness of humanity is upended and judged by God. 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.

Latin Masses in Charlotte RESTRICTED by Local Bishop | The Rundown

In this rich theological conversation, Camden Bucey welcomes Dr. Harrison Perkins—pastor, scholar, and author—to discuss his two latest books: Righteous by Design: Covenantal Merit and Adam's Original Integrity (Christian Focus) and Created for Communion with God: The Promise of Genesis 1–2 (Lexham Press). Together, they explore foundational Reformed doctrines related to covenant theology, the image of God, and the eschatological purpose embedded in creation itself. Dr. Perkins offers historical and systematic clarity on the oft-debated notion of merit in the covenant of works, contrasting Reformed and Roman Catholic anthropologies. He also unpacks the pastoral dimensions of humanity's creation for communion with God, showing how Genesis 1–2 serves not merely as a record of origins, but as a divine love letter calling God's people into eternal fellowship. Whether you're a pastor, scholar, or thoughtful layperson, this episode provides deep insight into how theology—rooted in Scripture and the Reformed tradition—shapes our understanding of God, humanity, and the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Episode: 57Featuring: Emilio Ramos and Mike Theimann Description  In this episode of Christ and Kingdom, we finish up on Reformed apologetics by talking about three critical aspects of the pre-suppositional argument in apologetics. Every worldview claims they have an ultimate authority, It is important in apologetics to challenge that authority, biblically, and consistently. We also […] The post Reformed Apologetics, Pt3 appeared first on Red Grace Media.

Send us a textWrestling with one of Christianity's most profound paradoxes, this thought-provoking theological discussion examines whether submission to Christ is truly optional or if divine sovereignty ultimately prevails over human will.The conversation begins with a striking comparison between rejecting Christ's lordship and political insurrection, suggesting that denying Christ's authority constitutes a similar rebellion against legitimate rule. As participants grapple with the central question, fascinating perspectives emerge that challenge conventional thinking about free will."It's optional in the same way filing taxes is optional," offers one speaker. "They say our tax system is voluntary, but just try not filing for a few years and see what happens." This analogy perfectly captures the tension between human choice and divine decree that runs throughout the discussion.The group explores various theological positions, from Reformed predestination to perspectives emphasizing human responsibility. They examine scripture's teaching that "every knee shall bow," probing what this means for both believers who willingly submit and unbelievers who resist Christ's authority. Does genuine choice exist if God has already determined all outcomes? Can human will truly operate independently of divine control?Particularly illuminating is the distinction between God's "will of decree" (what He has sovereignly determined will happen) and His "will of precept" (His moral commands). This framework helps reconcile how God can command obedience while knowing many will disobey.Whether you're a theological novice or well-versed in doctrinal debates, this conversation offers fresh insights into how Christians understand salvation, sovereignty, and human responsibility. Ultimately, it challenges listeners to consider not just whether submission to Christ is optional, but what their own response to His lordship reveals about their spiritual condition.Support the show

Join us for this special introductory livestream where Dr. Camden Bucey offers an accessible first look at Eastern Orthodoxy from a Reformed theological perspective. This session represents only the beginning of our exploration into this tradition. Drawing from leading introductory texts—including works by Andrew Louth, Timothy Ware, Anthony Coniaris, and Frederica Mathewes-Green—Camden will guide us through the fundamental themes and distinctives of Eastern Orthodox theology and practice. In this initial presentation, we'll examine key doctrines such as Scripture, the Church, the Trinity, and theosis, while also considering the underlying assumptions that shape Orthodox spirituality. What distinguishes Orthodoxy from Protestantism—not just in its answers, but in the questions it asks? This introductory session is designed for: Reformed Christians seeking to understand the profound theological differences between Orthodox and Reformed interpretations of Scripture Those wanting to recognize how Eastern Orthodoxy's foundational assumptions and hermeneutical approaches diverge significantly from Reformed convictions Viewers interested in discerning the substantial distinctions in how these traditions approach authority, salvation, and worship Those who desire to strengthen their grasp of Reformed theology by understanding a tradition that takes significantly different paths on core doctrines Our aim is to begin understanding a historic Christian tradition on its own terms, while also evaluating its claims in light of the confessional Reformed faith. Initial topics we'll introduce: The foundations of Eastern Orthodoxy Orthodox understandings of Scripture and tradition The Trinity: mystery, apophaticism, and communion Theosis and sanctification Authority and conciliarity vs. sola Scriptura Orthodox perspectives on Protestantism and Roman Catholicism Reformed responses to Orthodox claims This livestream serves as an entry point for further exploration. Future sessions will explore these complex theological matters in greater detail. Join us for this engaging first exploration—and come ready to think theologically. Watch on YouTube

In this episode, we take a closer look at the canonical and oversight status of several influential voices within contemporary Orthodox and Anglican communities: Fr. Peter Heers, Sr. Vassa Larin, Fr. Calvin Robinson, and the YouTuber and commentator Jay Dyer.

Segment 1: • Critique from Disntr: Effeminate pastors are pushing men out of church. • Trinity Evangelical Divinity School is relocating—what's happening to once-solid institutions? • Churches may be losing men by embracing soft, culturally conformed leadership. Segment 2: • Disntr (formerly Reformation Charlotte) slams “middle-road” churches for lacking clarity. • There's no third way between truth and cultural appeasement. • Men need strong leadership—effeminacy won't fill the pews. Segment 3: • A church performs ballet to “The Blessing”—is this God-glorifying? • Performance replaces preaching in churches with no confidence in Scripture. • Reformed in name only: many churches are evangelical on the outside, worldly at the core. Segment 4: • Billboard says Christian music is rising—but what are we actually singing? • Songs like “Hard Fought Hallelujah” and “Your Way's Better” may stir emotions—but do they stir truth? • The showbiz church is booming—but is it still the church? – Preorder the new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me, by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!
