In this first episode of our Advent series, “Think Christianly About Advent,” Nate Wright, Dr. Joe Boot, and Dr. Michael Thiessen explore what it truly means to think Christianly about Christ as we enter the Christmas season. Starting from family and church traditions, they move into the deeper significance of the incarnation as the moment when the eternal God steps into history, confronting both ancient pagan hopes and modern political idols. Drawing on Joe’s chapter “Think Christianly About Christ” and his article "The New Political Community", they unpack the profoundly political nature of Advent—the coming of the true Priest-King whose kingdom challenges every rival rule. This episode sets the stage for the series by reminding us that Christmas is not just about nostalgia, but about the Kingdom of God breaking into the world.

In this episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Dr. Joe Boot, and Pastor Nate Wright continue their discussion on Think Christianly, focusing on how the church can recover a truly Christian mind. They examine how secular philosophies, pop psychology, and emotionalism have shaped much of modern Christian thinking, leading to widespread syncretism and cultural confusion. The hosts explore the need for a reformational worldview—one that applies God’s Word to every sphere of life—and why theology alone can’t stand apart from Christian philosophy, education, law, or politics. They unpack how dualism has separated “spiritual” things from “real life,” and why faithful Christian action requires a renewed, biblical way of thinking about the whole of creation. A foundational conversation for anyone who wants to understand what it means to think Christianly about everything.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Pastor Nate Wright, and Dr. Joe Boot discuss the implications of Charlie Kirk's death and the church's response to it. They express concern over the reluctance of many church leaders to acknowledge Kirk's martyrdom and the broader cultural implications of this silence. The conversation delves into the truncation of the gospel, the political nature of the Christian message, and the need for the church to engage with cultural issues rather than retreating into silence. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the gospel as a transformative force in society and the necessity of addressing violence and injustice from a biblical perspective.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Michael Thiessen, Pastor Nate Wright, and Dr. Joe Boot discuss the implications of Charlie Kirk's death and the church's response to it. They express concern over the reluctance of many church leaders to acknowledge Kirk's martyrdom and the broader cultural implications of this silence. The conversation delves into the truncation of the gospel, the political nature of the Christian message, and the need for the church to engage with cultural issues rather than retreating into silence. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the gospel as a transformative force in society and the necessity of addressing violence and injustice from a biblical perspective.

In this episode of the Podcast for Cultural Reformation, Dr. Joe Boot and Pastor Nate Wright discuss the politics of civil war while attending the Ezra Family Camp in Ontario, Canada. They reflect on the social and political conditions in various Western nations, particularly the UK and Canada, which suggest a growing potential for civil unrest. They delve into markers of civil war, including polar factionalism, downgrading of dominant cultural groups, and loss of faith in political institutions. The episode also touches on historical and biblical insights into the generation of such conflicts, highlighting the religious and cultural decay contributing to current crises. They conclude by questioning how Christians should respond to these turbulent times and foreshadow further discussions on practical responses to potential civil conflicts.Episode Resources: Are We Headed for Civil War? - David Betz | Triggernometry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3h49O0AGxx0; NEW!!!
