Hi, this is Jimmy.
On today's episode of Theocast, we are able and blessed to sit around the same table and discuss and meet with our old friend, Pietism.
The other night, the boys, we were discussing in John's living room how pietism dies a very slow and painful death and the damage it can cause to our assurance and what we see when we look at ourselves in
Christ.
And so we discussed kind of the slow and painful death of pietism and how it can harm us.
And then in the members' podcast, we get a little bit more punchy and we talk about the dangers of pietism as it relates to the gathered saints in the local church and the damage that it can cause.
We hope this conversation is beneficial to you as it was to us, and we look forward to you listening.

Well, gentlemen, we are finishing up three days together, recording, prepping for some new material that's coming out.
So we're excited about that.
We'll talk about that in a little bit, but we really want to hear from Justin Purdue.
And we just threw this on him, and so he's going to talk about his pro con.
