Though we would never say it this way, it often seems that the gospel is just the starting point of the Christian life--and that once we believe, we need to move on to other things. Jon and Justin consider how this happens and what it means for people in the church.

Introduction To Covenant Theology Part One

Jon and Justin consider why we would interpret the Bible in any other way than a redemptive-historical fashion with Jesus at the center.

Members' Podcast: The guys discuss whether all of Scripture is Christian Scripture, dispensationalism, and how interpretative models affect assurance.

Some people say we should read the Bible with no presuppositions--and that it isn't good to have a theological system. Is that possible? Is that right? Jon and Justin consider these things and how we should do biblical theology.

The guys continue the conversation around the major tenets of reformed theology.

Jon and Justin answer a question that we get all the time: "When you say 'reformed' theology, what do you mean?" We offer our own "five points" on the subject.

Justin and Jon consider Proverbs 6:33 and whether our disgrace from sexual sin can ever be taken away? Also, the guys talk about how the church has often confused its mission when it comes to sex and the culture.

Jon and Justin have a conversation about our weakness, sex, and the gospel. (Parents: There is nothing graphic, but please be aware.) Our culture tells us all kinds of things about sex. The church hasn't always helped. What has God said in his Word?

The guys consider whether personal Bible reading is a litmus test of being a good and faithful Christian.
