RE Rich Leino joins Pastor George again to discuss the topic of Confessionalism and Subscription.  You'll hear Conservative Presbyterians speak in terms of "being Confessional."  What does it mean that one is Confessional?  And why does it matter?

As we prepare to look at J. Gresham Machen's "Christianity & Liberalism" for its 100 year anniversary, on this episode George does a reading with Commentary of Harry Emerson Fosdick's Sermon "Shall the Fundamentalists Win?" from 101 years ago.  While the issues were different, the tactics and motives are remarkably similar.

RE Chuck Murphy discusses his decision and heart behind leaving the only PCA Church he knew to plant a new work the Lord is doing.
