Leading evangelical seminary plans move from United States to Canada.Trinity Evangelical Divinity School rose to prominence in the 1960s and 1970s under its second dean, Kenneth Kantzer. Its renowned faculty—including Don Carson, Walt Kaiser, John Woodbridge, Wayne Grudem, and Carl F. H. Henry—helped American evangelicals recover from the fundamentalist/modernist controversies of the early 20th century, as well as the inerrancy dispute that erupted at Fuller Theological Seminary in 1962.By the early 21st century, TEDS alumni, including David Wells, Mark Noll, Doug Moo, and Craig Blomberg, held research positions in other seminaries, while Michael Oh led the Lausanne Movement.Long plagued with financial problems, TEDS leaders announced in April they would close the campus north of Chicago after the current school year as they merge with and relocate to Trinity Western University in British Columbia. Kevin Vanhoozer announced that instead of moving to Canada, he would join the faculty at Wheaton College's Litfin Divinity School.In other blows to the long-standing influence of Chicago-area theological education, Northern Seminary struggled through a presidential transition, and Trinity Christian College announced its closure after more than 60 years. The balance of evangelical power in the United States continues to shift to the South.For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

Death of John MacArthur and other renowned Bible teachers leaves leadership void.For at least 30 years, if you studied the Bible on your own or in a small group, you had a good chance of finding help from John MacArthur or Kay Arthur, both of whom died in 2025.MacArthur's expository sermons laid the groundwork for the growth of Reformed theology around the world, while Arthur inspired younger generations of women to engage in serious inductive Bible study. Their published and spoken words will continue to form Christians studying the unchanging, ever-dynamic Word. But MacArthur's longtime leadership of Shepherds Conference, Grace Community Church, The Master's University, and The Master's Seminary leaves a gaping institutional void.Voddie Baucham, who often collaborated with MacArthur, died unexpectedly in 2025 at only 56 years old. Another stalwart leader in the Religious Right, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson, died this year at 89 years old.For more information about this group, please visit their website at reformationboise.com.

When I graduated from high school, I had my life all planned out. For years I had felt God calling me into ministry, so naturally I planned to attend Seminary…. But then God asked me to take a right turn in my vocation - He asked me to go into business. At the time I didn't understand how I could feel called to ministry AND the marketplace, but today I can look back and see that all those years WERE ministry and that he was laying the groundwork for iWork4Him. Isaiah 55:8 says, "My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts…And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine." We don't have the big picture, but GOD DOES! So, how about you? Are you saying NO or NEVER to something that God is asking you to consider? Try removing the word NEVER from your prayer life – and see what God does.

Patrick and Jonah continue their Facing Evil series by reflecting on Rudolf Steiner's picture of Christ's activity in our time and the work of the angels in human life.They explore the idea of a “second Golgotha,” consider the spiritual consequences of modern materialism, and touch on Steiner's image of a kind of spiritual “smog” surrounding the earth. As Christmas approaches, the conversation turns toward the angels as messengers and guides, and toward Christ as a presence encountered through inner awakening rather than outward spectacle.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Does social media help or hurt real, meaningful community? It was intended to help, but has it accomplished what we thought it would do? Has the effort to make money come at the cost of real community? Is it causing depression and anxiety? Have we lost the idea of what community really is, and now long for something we already had? What is the cost? Doom scrolling is a thing, and doom is not a positive word. We need to talk about social media and the death of community.

S7 E10: The Night Before ChristmasWelcome to Tea Toast & Trivia. Thank you for listening in to a Christmas Eve reflection on the poem that changed how we see Christmas.Christmas Eve brings us once more to words that have shaped the wonder of generations. Tonight, we return to Clement Clarke Moore's beloved poem, a story that reminds us that imagination, generosity, and joy are timeless companions.Clement Clarke Moore, born July 15, 1799, was a writer and American Professor of Oriental and Greek Literature, Divinity and Biblical Learning at the General Theological Seminary of the Protestant Episcopal Church in New York City. Clement Moore had strong ties to the seminary, for it was his generosity that led him to donate land — his private apple orchard — upon which the seminary was built. The Seminary remains on that same parcel of land, located at Ninth Avenue between 20th and 21st Streets, in an area known as Chelsea Square.Clement Moore accomplished a great deal in his lifetime. He was a writer and a poet, a professor and scholar. He served twice as President of Columbia College (now Columbia University) and as a board member of the New York Institution for the Blind.Clement Moore published several academic works, including A Compendious Lexicon of the Hebrew Language (Collins & Perkins, 1809). But it was his poem, A Visit from St. Nicholas, more commonly known as The Night Before Christmas, that captured the hearts of children young and old. With these poetic words he changed the way we see Christmas.A Visit from St. Nicholas was published anonymously in the Troy Sentinel in 1823. Clement Moore had second thoughts in 1837, when he eventually told everyone that he had penned the poem. Many believe that it is the most well-known and beloved poem written by an American poet. We read it every Christmas, most often on Christmas Eve, and reflect on Christmases past when we were young and heard the familiar words read by our parents and grandparents. Santa and the tradition of Christmas gift-giving were transformed by this poem.There is a particular stillness that arrives with Christmas Eve, the hush before the dawn, the anticipation of joy renewed. As we listen to these familiar lines once more, we honour the enduring spirit of generosity and imagination that binds us together across generations.Until the next cup is poured, dear friends,Merry Christmas from Tea, Toast & Trivia.RebeccaMusic by Epidemic SoundChristmas Snow by Mike Franklynhttps://www.epidemicsound.com/music/tracks/f2e78ede-e8e3-3c38-a3d1-67254d5a4a28/

Patrick and Jonah continue their “Facing Evil” series by reflecting on the tension between automatic spirituality and a purely material, technical way of thinking. Drawing on Rudolf Steiner's images of Lucifer and Ahriman, they ask what it means to remain free, responsible, and awake in a world shaped by instant answers and constant stimulation.The conversation touches on silence, screens, artificial intelligence as a source of guidance, and the challenge of making space for discernment. Along the way, they introduce the striking idea of a “second Mystery of Golgotha” and what it might mean for human consciousness today.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Is “The Age of Disclosure” something we should pay attention to and freak out, or is it just high-level clickbait? It costs $20 to stream. Is it worth it? Bryan Catherman and Josiah Walker don't know, but they do know that this isn't the first time Christians have freaked out over a documentary. In this episode of Salty Believer Unscripted, the guys discuss what Christians should do when they're invited to a freakout. What should Pastors do when their congregants bring these kinds of panic and worry? That's the topic of this discussion. Copyright 2025. Find more information at SaltyBeliever.com.

They explore what happens when we sleep through the spiritual impulses meant to awaken us, and how Ahrimanic materialism and Luciferic automatic spirituality can distort those impulses.

Bryan Catherman has journeyed through the Book of Luke at Trinity Church, and Josiah Walker is just getting started at Redeeming Life Church. What should we think and do as we get started in this book? How do we study it? How should we break it down?

Episode Summary: During the “Great Awokening” in 2020 many churches cracked under the pressure. These cracks ran deeper than political talking points and cultural morays but stemmed from a divide at the level of worldview. Pastor Jon Benzinger from Redeemer Bible Church joins us to explain how social-justice ideology is still present and active. Even while the vigor of the woke movement has quieted, there remains a gospel-level conflict in the worldview of the people. We discuss how to spot the woke worldview's lingering assumptions about sin, justice, and identity, and why changing vocabulary doesn't always mean changing beliefs.Jon also shares practical guidance for Christians navigating cultural pressure, how churches can guard against ideological capture, and why clarity, courage, and genuine repentance, not simply rebranding, are the path forward. We close with a look at One Gospel, a new effort to rebuild unity around the core gospel's first principles. If you want a clear roadmap for the church today, this episode is for you.Who is Disciple Nations Alliance (DNA)? Since 1997, DNA's mission has been to equip followers of Jesus around the globe with a biblical worldview, empowering them to build flourishing families, communities, and nations.

Andy Mainiero's missional experience started with obedience and small beginnings. He started house churches and clubs for youth. These ministries grew, and as they grew, so did Andy's awareness of trauma and its impact. But when Andy and his wife adopted children from the foster care system, he dove into learning all he could about trauma--or more importantly, what it means to be trauma transformed.Today, Andy is an assistant professor of mission theology at Fuller Seminary, and the founder and director of the Shalom Gospel Network—a global impact network that promotes and facilitates trauma-transforming mission and ministry. Listen in as Andy shares his biblical interpretation of Shalom, wholeness, and what it looks like to enjoy wholeness in the midst of pain. "Shalom is the way things were meant to be..it's never fully complete. It's an ongoing journey of wholing all our parts, putting them back together into its intended shalom."What better way to close the year than with an episode focused on Shalom.

In this week's episode of The Light in Everything, Patrick and Jonah continue exploring Rudolf Steiner's lecture The Work of the Angels in Man's Astral Body by turning to a central spiritual question: What happens when the guidance meant for human beings is met by resistance—both within us and around us?They revisit the three core impulses the angels weave into humanity: • a deepening sense of human solidarity, • meeting each person as a revelation of the divine, • and a redeemed form of thinking that can receive the life of the Spirit.Then they follow Steiner's claim that if these impulses are not consciously received, they do not simply disappear—they transform. Patrick and Jonah describe how Luciferic forces can turn spirituality into something automatic and coercive, while Ahrimanic forces draw us toward cold materialism and a purely technological future.Along the way, they consider scriptural motifs, inner freedom, cultural examples, and Steiner's “Representative of Humanity” sculpture as an image of Christ holding the balance between these extremes--to see this examination, please find and follow our YouTube page!This episode invites us to reflect on how spiritual currents work through our culture, our choices, and our thinking—and how freedom becomes the meeting place where the human being can stand upright in the midst of them.Support the showThe Light in Every Thing is a podcast of The Seminary of The Christian Community in North America.

Links https://www.racetoinnovation.net/ Race to Innovation: Unleashing the Power of Entrepreneurship for Everyone Transcript available with the video in the Zion Lab community Highlights In this episode, Roy discusses the intersection of innovation and church leadership, emphasizing how Latter-day Saints can embrace creativity and entrepreneurial spirit to build the kingdom of God. He outlines five principles of innovation that can empower individuals and leaders within the church. Key Insights Innovation in the Church: Innovation is rooted in the ongoing restoration of the gospel, with historical examples from church leaders like Joseph Smith and President Nelson demonstrating the importance of adapting and evolving. Recognizing Potential: Leaders should actively recognize and nurture the divine potential in all members, encouraging creativity and new ideas rather than dismissing them due to comfort with the status quo. Power of Enclaves: Supportive groups or enclaves foster innovation by providing emotional and practical support, enabling individuals to take risks and share their ideas without fear of failure. Enabling Ownership: Leaders should empower members to take ownership of their ideas, allowing them to lead initiatives rather than relying solely on institutional approval. Unique Perspectives: Embracing the diverse backgrounds and experiences of members can lead to innovative solutions that enrich the church community. Accelerating Change: Leaders should focus on how to accelerate innovative ideas, ensuring that they are not just reactive but proactive in creating positive change within their congregations. Leadership Applications Encouraging Initiative: Leaders can create an environment where members feel safe to propose new ideas, such as starting a community service project or a new class, by actively listening and providing support. Building Support Networks: Forming small groups or committees within the ward can help individuals collaborate on innovative projects, leveraging their unique skills and experiences to enhance church activities. Fostering a Culture of Innovation: By promoting a mindset of continuous improvement and openness to new ideas, leaders can inspire members to contribute creatively to the church's mission, ultimately strengthening the community and its outreach efforts. 00:03:34 - Framing Innovation in Church Leadership 00:05:25 - Innovation in the Context of the Restoration 00:07:51 - Challenges of Innovation in Large Organizations 00:09:36 - Autonomy in Local Church Leadership 00:11:25 - Encouraging Local Innovation 00:12:39 - The Role of Individual Members in Innovation 00:14:31 - Importance of Innovation in Church Leadership 00:16:06 - Proactive vs. Reactive Innovation 00:18:07 - Individual Innovation and Community Impact
