    The End of an Era - Episode 236

    In the words of Porky Pig, "Th-th...that's all, folks!" After nearly 6 years, Reformed Podmatics finally comes to an end. It's been a wonderful run and we have so much to be thankful for. So in this final episode, we reflect on the wonderful fruit of this ministry, the friends we've made, and the things we've learned. We also delve into other things like the future of the CRC, Zac's transition to become an Anglican church planter, and the beauty of Reformed theology. So join us for episode 236 as we finally say, for the last time, "grace and peace...see ya!"   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    Church Planting: The What, Why, and How - Episode 235

    The heartbeat of the church's mission is to worship God and to invite others to join the chorus through the gospel of Jesus Christ. Part and parcel of this endeavor, then, is church planting, the multiplication of new churches that will, in due time, become established, organized, and worshiping congregations that will seek to plant new churches themselves. As Pastor Zac considers a future in church planting, and as the conversations about the importance of church planting continue on in the Christian Reformed Church, we thought it would be good to think through this timely and important topic in what will be our second to last episode in the life of this podcast, at least as we know it today.   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    Growing In Your Assurance of Salvation - Episode 234

    One of the perennial conundrums many Christians face is regarding the assurance of their salvation. In the Reformed tradition, it regularly comes up in the form of questions about God's providence and election; How can I be sure that God chose me? It’s a tricky doctrine, but an important one for the spiritual health, wellbeing, and sanctification of the believer. So in this week's episode, we dive into Scripture and our Reformed confessions to take a look at how we can grow in assurance of salvation.   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    The Oft-Neglected Principle of Tota Scriptura - Episode 233

    In last week's episode we covered the Reformation principle of sola Scriptura, and so in this week's installment we thought it would be good to cover the complementary principle known as tota Scriptura, which is the conviction that the whole of Scripture is inspired, good, and profitable for the Christian.  We also drop some very important news about the future of the show, so make sure to tune in and get the scoop in this week's episode.   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    Did the Roman Catholic Church Give Us the Bible? A Discussion on Sola Scriptura - Episode 232

    One of the perennial points of discussion between Roman Catholics and Protestants is the role and authority of Scripture and tradition in the Christian life, and for good reason. Many Roman Catholic apologists today will argue that sola Scriptura is untenable because it was the Church that created the Scripture, and not the other way. So in this week's episode we aim to explain what sola Scriptura is, what is isn't, and how it stands up to Roman and Orthodox objections.   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    The Reformed View of Communion - Episode 231

    With Holy Week upon us, we thought it would be wonderful to take a few moments reflecting on the Reformed view of Communion and how it compares to the views of Roman Catholicism, Lutheranism, and modern Evangelicalism. As you celebrate the Eucharist this week, we hope this episode is a helpful way of deepening your participation in this sacrament.    Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    Creating A Healthy Culture of Welcome & Hospitality at Your Church - Episode 230

    One of the most important questions each local congregation can ask itself is, Do we have a healthy culture of greeting and hospitality that will remove barriers and foster fellowship with newcomers and new members? In this week's episode, we dive into how having a good theology of greeting ought to radically reorient our attention away from being inwardly focused and insular to being outwardly focused and hospitable. Whether you're a church leader or just a member, we all have an important part to play in making sure our churches rightly reflect our hospitable and gracious God.   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.

    Truth & Work in the Age of AI - Episode 229

    A long time has passed since our first episode on AI back in November of 2023, so we thought it would be good to revisit this topic. But rather than covering the topic from a general perspective, this time around we focus specifically on two new angles: how AI has disintegrated our ability to trust what we're told is true, and how it impacts the way we approach our work and vocations. We hope this will be a thought-provoking conversation about this timely topic.   Visit www.almondvalley.org for information about Almond Valley Christian Reformed Church in Ripon, CA.
