Bow Tie Dialogue is an opportunity for Pastor Keith Foskey to discuss serious theological issues, often with people from differing perspectives. Today, he welcomes fellow baptist pastor Tom Hicks to discuss the theology of the 17th century pastor Richard Baxter. They ask the question, "Was Baxter a heretic?" They also discuss more about justification including antinominianism, neonomianism, free grace theology, final justification, and more.

Can you relate to any of the following...starting prayer and then getting distractedstarting prayer and then abruptly ending itstarting prayer and giving up because nothing seems to be happening starting prayer and then giving up for no reason at allIn our last episode of this series, we're going to trouble-shoot some of our common prayer problems with Richard Baxter.

The idea of preaching the gospel to yourself seems to have gained a lot of traction over the past few years. This is, however, an old tactic used by Christians throughout history to fight for a heavenly mind. Richard Baxter is chief among these.In this episode Baxter coaches us on the work of consideration, wrestling with reason, activating the affections, preaching to yourself, and more.A few quotes from Baxter...Consideration presents to the affections those things that are most important in the most affecting way.Consideration is but the reading over and repeating God's reasons to our hearts.Meditation holds reason and faith to their work, and blows the fire till it thoroughly burns. To run a few steps will not get a heat, but walking an hour may.If you can talk of divine things to others, why not also to your own heart?

Why is it so hard to navigate disagreements with other Christians? In his new book, When Christians Disagree: Lessons from the Fractured Relationship of John Owen and Richard Baxter, Dr. Tim Cooper uses the historical differences between two giants of the faith, John Owen and Richard Baxter, as a lens for seeing our disagreements today. Through their story, Christians can better work through our differences for kingdom impact.

In this episode Andy, Joe, and Evan break down Richard Baxter's definition of heavenly contemplation. They also talk about the best time (specific, frequent, seasonable), place (in private), and temper (a clear and solemn mind) for practicing this discipline.Baxter's definition of heavenly contemplation: the set and solemn setting of all the powers of your soul in meditation upon your everlasting rest.

In Scotland, there are hills full of sheep. If you watch closely, you can see sheep doing a lot of things - but there is one thing I've never seen a sheep do: look up at the sky.  You can have a brilliant sunrise in the sky, or there can be a million shining stars with a glorious full moon, but the sheep never look up - in most cases there faces are always in one position: looking down at the grass.This is a picture of a lot of men. The Bible pulls back a curtain so that we can lift our mind to glorious realities, but so many of us never do so. We're stuffing our faces like sheep when we could be contemplating the throne of God like angels.In this episode, Richard Baxter helps us identify the hindrances and helps of a heavenly mind.Hindrances:Living in known sin Earthly-mindedness Hanging out with ungodly Arguing too much over secondary stuff e.g. theology and politics LazinessTalking about Christ instead of Delighting in HimHelps:Genuine ConvictionsPersonal AssuranceProximity to heavenSpiritual FriendshipA Sanctified ImaginationThe Means of GraceBodily Discipline

Men are passive about their thought life and emotional life. We act as if our thoughts and emotions are like the weather: beyond our reach and out of our control. This is strange. There are a lot of trustworthy Christian guides from the past that indicate that there are ways in which we can direct our mind. One of the greatest of these guides is Richard Baxter. In this series we're going to invite Baxter onto our podcast in order to learn from him how we can begin to live a heavenly life on earth. In this episode, Baxter guides us to learn...how to live a heavenly life on earththe discipline of setting your mind on things that are abovethe benefits of setting your mind on things above

Dan discusses Richard Baxter and whether he was a Christian.

Links, in order of their mention on the podcast:Kierkegaard parable Andrew cites: From the Journal: Empty Nutshells...God would be loved. Therefore He wants Christians. To love God is to be a Christian...Now "man's" knavish interest consists in creating millions and millions of Christians, the more the better, all men if possible; for thus the whole difficulty of being a Christian vanishes, being a Christian and being a man amounts to the same thing, and we find ourselves where paganism ended. Christendom has mocked God and continues to mock Him—just as if to a man who is a lover of nuts, instead of bringing him one nut with a kernel, we were to bring him tons and millions...of empty nuts, and then make this show of our zeal to comply with his wish.Soren Kierkegaard, Attack Upon “Christendom” 1854-1855, translated with an introduction by Walter Lowrie, The Beacon Press, Boston, 1956. p. 156.John Frame, "Machen's Warrior Children" in Sung Wook Chung, ed., Alister E.

Jeremiah Burroughs was a peace-loving Puritan. Without sacrificing the truth, he sought unity among those who professed it, and prayed, preached, and pleaded to that end. Indeed, Richard Baxter, who felt keenly the need for peace but struggled himself to promote it, once remarked that if all the Episcopalians had been like Archbishop [James] Ussher, all the Presbyterians like Stephen Marshall, and all the Independents like Jeremiah Burroughs, then the breaches of the church would soon have been healed.    Article read this week: – James Davison, 'The Irenic Jeremiah Burroughs', Banner of Truth Magazine, Issue 559 (April 2010).    Further reading: Jeremiah Burroughs, The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment (paperback, 232 pages.)    This week's episode art features a detail from William Bell Scott (1811–1890), Bernard Gilpin making Peace among the Borders, takes down the Glove in Rothbury Church, circa 1570 (One of a series of eight oil paintings illustrating the history of the English Border).

Healing often begins with the courage to ask questions—and the right guide to walk you through the answers. Dr. Jill Jenkins shares how pediatric oral health connects to far more than teeth, influencing everything from nursing success to sleep, speech, and even a child's overall development. With warmth and wisdom, she explains how individualized care and a collaborative approach with other practitioners can empower parents to identify tongue ties and make confident decisions. Her passion is a reminder that small interventions early on can create ripple effects of wellness for a lifetime. Key Takeaways: Understanding tongue ties and their subtle symptoms can help parents advocate for their child's health. A multidisciplinary approach—including dentists, lactation consultants, and bodywork—leads to better outcomes. Early, individualized care builds a foundation for proper oral function and overall well-being. Parents' instincts are powerful; trusting your gut can lead to answers others might overlook. Restoring oral function can positively impact sleep, feeding, and emotional connection between parent and child.   About Dr. Jill Jenkins: With almost 20 years of experience as a pediatric dentist, Dr Jill Jenkins felt like there wasn't a child she couldn't help through her pediatric dental practice, Jenkins Dentistry for Kids. That was until 2 of her long term employees had infants with tongue tie restrictions, requiring frenectomy procedures. Without the proper training and equipment, Dr Jenkins had to refer her patients to another practitioner at a vulnerable time for the families who had come to trust her. So, after extensive coursework and in-person observation with one of the most renowned tongue tie pediatric dentists in the field, Dr Richard Baxter, Dr Jenkins is thrilled to now be able to provide frenectomy services to patients through the establishment of Midwest Tongue Tie Professionals. By utilizing the state of the art Lightscalpel CO2 laser and working closely with functional providers, Dr Jenkins is confident that patients receive exceptional care before, during and post-procedure to ensure not only a precise tongue tie release, but also the movement and functionality the release is designed to achieve. Dr Jill Jenkins attended dental school and her pediatric residency at the University of Missouri Kansas City School of Dentistry and Children's Mercy Hospital. After 15 years in her original partnership, Dr Jenkins pivoted to develop a practice based on her own patient and team centered philosophy to open Jenkins Dentistry for Kids with locations in Lenexa and Shawnee. She is also the owner and founder of Midwest Tongue Tie Professionals. Dr Jenkins has served organized dentistry in many volunteer roles throughout her career, most notably as President of the Fifth District Dental Society of Kansas, President of the State of Kansas Dental Association and currently as Chair of the KDA Membership committee, member of the ADA Council on Membership, and as a Delegate for the State of Kansas to the ADA. Dr Jenkins is a board certified pediatric dentist, and is involved with many professional organizations where she is a diplomate for the American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry, fellow of the Pierre Fauchard Academy, fellow of the American College of Dentists and fellow of the International College of Dentists. She also received the Women Who Mean Business Award from the Kansas City Business Journal in 2017, where she continues to stay active. She has also been awarded Dentist of the Year both locally and at the state level. Dr Jenkins has been married for over 25 years and is fortunate to have 3 amazing children. www.jenkinsdentistryforkids.com www.midwesttonguetieprofessionals.com https://www.facebook.com/JenkinsDentistryKids/ https://www.instagram.com/jenkinsdentistryforkids/    Connect with Dr. Michelle and Bayleigh at: https://smallchangesbigshifts.com hello@smallchangesbigshifts.com https://www.linkedin.com/company/smallchangesbigshifts https://www.facebook.com/SmallChangesBigShifts https://www.instagram.com/smallchangesbigshiftsco   Thanks for listening!

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Audio Treasures is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: The devil's chapel!

The words of Richard Baxter are earthy, moving, and convicting. He echoes the truth that we can begin to enjoy God's rest as we seek Him foremost.Baxter in "The Saints Everlasting Rest" brings us to tears, and He laments in the voice of God:"How must we offend our dear Lord when we give him cause to complain, as he did of our fellow idolaters: "My people have been lost sheep; they have forgotten their resting-place. My people can find rest in anything rather than in me. They can delight in one another, but not in me. They can rejoice in my creatures and ordinances, but not in me. Yea, in their very labors and duties they seek for rest, but not in me. They had rather be anywhere than be with me. Are these their gods? Have these redeemed them? Will these be better to them than I have been, or than I would be?" If you yourselves had a wife, a husband, a son, who had rather be any where than in your company, and was never so merry as when farthest from you, would you not take it ill? So our God must needs do."He then urges us:"O Christian, follow thy work, look to thy dangers, hold on to the end, win the field, and come off the ground before thou think of a settled rest."His words are sobering to my soul.

In this episode Al Fadi and Dr Jay continue the discussion of slavery and how Christianity delt with it. They mention the abolition movement from 1673 with Richard Baxter in the USA, William Wilberforce 1789 who headed the abolition movement in the U K. To contrast that with Muslim countries who abolished slavery between 1952-1981, Qatar 1952, Saudi Arabia in 1961 just two examples and they did it because of pressure from western countries. Islam had never had an abolition movement. Next they discuss reason #4 Islam's morality. Converts to Islam from Afro American background say that Afro American Christian churches have more problems with sexual immorality. That is true but that is not what the Bible teaches especially when we read Matthew 5. The more the western culture pulls away from the bible the more we pull away from morality.

In this episode of Christ the Center, Camden Bucey welcomes Dr. J. Brandon Burks, pastor of Christ Reformed Church (URCNA) in Florence, Kentucky, to discuss his recent article published in The Confessional Presbyterian Journal (Vol. 20, 2024): The Puritans and the Salem Witch Trials: Living According to God's Revealed Will. Together, they explore the theological context of the infamous Salem witch trials of 1692, uncovering how speculative theology and reliance on so-called “spectral evidence” reflected a deeper deviation from Scripture's clarity and sufficiency. Dr. Burks outlines the influence of figures such as William Perkins, Cotton Mather, and Richard Baxter, while also shedding light on how the distinction between God's secret and revealed will was tragically misunderstood. The conversation goes beyond history, offering timely insights into contemporary fascination with mysticism, the spiritual dangers of neglecting the ordinary means of grace, and the need for biblically grounded theology in facing spiritual warfare today. They conclude by considering the value of a redemptive-historical and confessional framework in pastoral ministry and theological education.

You cannot have God as your Savior, unless you will have Him as your Sovereign.Will you waste your life chasing shadows, while your eternity hangs in the balance?Life is short, death is certain,judgment is final!Repent while the door of mercy is open!To trifle with your soul is the greatest folly. Eternal joy or eternal misery are before you.To delay repentance, is to gamble with your soul on the verge of eternity.The heart that refuses to bow to God now, will be crushed under His justice in eternity.The sinner's refusal of grace is the highest madness, for it exchanges Heaven for Hell.The door of mercy is open now, but it will not always remain so--enter while you can.Sin deceives, but it will not excuse.Sin entices, but it will destroy.If you love your sin more than your soul, then you shall have your sin--and lose your soul.Mercy pleads with you now, but justice will have the last word.The cost of following Christ is nothing, compared to the cost of rejecting Him.If you love your sin, then you do not love God.And if you do not love God, then you are lost forever.To live without Christ, is to live without hope.To die without Christ, is to die without mercy.You may escape the world's condemnation,but you cannot escape the wrath of God without Christ.To reject Christ, is to reject the only hope for your soul.He who will not repent now, will wish that he had in eternity.Your life is but a vapor, and your soul is everlasting.Why will you trade eternity, for the passing pleasures of sin?Time is short, and eternity is long.To neglect your soul's salvation, is the greatest of follies.The devil offers sin as sweet, but it leaves b

What happens when two theological giants who love Jesus have a FIERY public fallout?

The Voice, The Tongue & The Airway with Jessica LuffeyIn this fascinating episode, I sit down with Jessica Luffey (CSOM, MM)—a Certified Specialist in Orofacial Myology and professional operatic soprano—to explore the profound connection between vocal performance, orofacial myology, and airway health.Raised in a dental family and trained in elite vocal performance, Jessica has pioneered groundbreaking insights into how tongue ties, craniofacial function, and myofunctional therapy impact singers at the highest level. With extensive training under experts like Dr. Soroush Zaghi and Dr. Richard Baxter, her work has transformed the way vocalists—from Grammy-winning artists to opera stars—understand and optimize their instrument: the body.

Dr. Jordan Hubbard has always had a passion for the human body, how it works, and the physiology of how it is regulated. In high school, she found her passion for dentistry. She graduated from the University of North Carolina Wilmington's Honors College with a BS in biology and minor in psychology in 2013. She went on to graduate from the University of Detroit Mercy School of Dentistry in 2017 and was awarded the AGD Excellence Award signifying she showed the highest excellence in general dentistry in her class. She also graduated with the ASDA Certificate of Excellence Award, received a Deans Circle Scholarship, and took additional courses to get her Certificate in Forensic Odontology. After graduation, she worked as an associate while taking continuing education courses in implantology, pediatric dentistry, and cosmetic dentistry. Once she purchased her practice in 2020, and had children of her own, she became fascinated with infant frenectomies and airway dentistry. She has spent the last 3 years studying her craft, and has taken courses from leading experts in the field including Dr. Richard Baxter, Dr. Soroush Zaghi, Dr. Jared Poplin, and Dr. Erin Elliot. In her free time, she enjoys giving back, and found a way to do so with the Mommy Dentists in Business. As the regional leader for MDIB of the Carolinas, Dr. Hubbard enjoys planning events and meet-ups for women in her area to have fun, talk dentistry, and provide mentorship and support for each other. She is also active in her local study clubs, is the Vice President of the North Carolina Chapter of the American Association of Women Dentists, and is the owner of her practice, Hubbard Dental, in Pinehurst North Carolina. Dr. Hubbard has 3 young boys, and is married to her husband of 8 years.

"Never man was highlier extolled, and never man baselier reported of and vilified” write Richard Baxter - a contemporary of Oliver Cromwell, who was not a fan. In this he was closer to the truth than Samuel Johnson, who wearily wrote in the 18th century that "all that can be told of him is already in print.” Cromwell is makes a subject extraordinarily divisive, and extraordinarily rich, partly because, as some other clever person remarked, people find in him what they are looking for.
