Preaching Christ: Chrysostom on Marriage

Preaching on marriage is something we all hear and something some of us do. What should it sound like, and how clear and sharp should the church be about the roles, duties, joys, and crosses in family life? How should a Christian man choose a wife? Join us as we talk about marriage and the preaching of John Chrysostom, whose epithet means "Golden Mouth."

Revolt Against the Modern World

Some men say you are just a cog in the industrial machine. Others say you are meant only to consume product and wait for the next one. Yet God says you are fearfully and wonderfully made. Join as we discuss man's purpose and how modernity seeks to destroy it.

Observing Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving may seem like another American holiday, but its Biblical roots remind us to give thanks for all that God has done.

The Revelation to John

Revelation is a book that seems confusing and even terrifying, but it is written for the Church. How do the visions of Christ, the Father, and the Holy Spirit encourage us?

Being a Man?

When God made male and female, did he do so with a purpose? In a world where such distinctions are forgotten, ignored, or neglected, what does it mean for men to be men and women to be women? Join us as we discuss these things in the world, the family, and the church.

Divination

The Lord tells us to avoid mediums and necromancers, but many throughout history until today turn to them. Is there a real danger, or is it simply fake and harmless? How should the Christian view fortune telling or other ways of trying to influence the future? Come along with us through the Bible, the weirdness of Renaissance magic, the surprising people involved in the Reformation, and even Houdini going to Congress, as we discuss divination in all its forms.
