When it comes to the Christian faith, there are certain things that are foundational to our belief system, and it's essential that Christians believe them in order to actually be "Christian" - these things are the "backbone" of our faith. Bible teachers and theology nerds, Daniel Cloud and Nate Petersen discuss these "backbone" items, and then point out the things that aren't necessarily vital to agree on, but are really just fun to discuss (and maybe debate a little bit).

    Episode 20 - The Doctrine of the Church (Part 3 - Baptism)

    Welcome back to the Have a Backbone Podcast! In today's episode, Daniel and Nate talk about the doctrine of baptism. Ever since the beginning of the church, baptism has always accompanied the believing of the Gospel. So what is essential to believe about baptism? Is it essential for salvation? If it's just a symbol, is it wrong to not get baptized? What kind of baptism is best - full immersion or sprinkling? Join the discussion!

    Episode 19 - Can Women Be Leaders in the Church (Part 3 - Featuring Dan Lewis)

    In this final part of the series on women in church leadership, Daniel and Nate once again enlist the help of scholar, pastor, teacher, Dan Lewis to unlock both the Greek language and cultural context of passages like 1 Timothy 2 and 1 Corinthians 14. What they discover is that in doing so, it appears likely that these passages are not, in fact, forbidding women to be pastors. And once again, the question is asked: If the Bible does not explicitly forbid women from being pastors, does the rest of Scripture support the idea that all gifts of the Spirit can be granted equally, regardless of gender?

    Episode 18 - Can Women Be Leaders in the Church (Part 2)

    In this episode, Nate and Daniel respond to some listener questions and feedback following the initial episode on this topic. The main question addressed? Does the Bible explicitly prohibit women from being pastors? If we were to find that the verses that are so often used to imply that they cannot aren't actually addressing the issue of women being leaders/teachers/pastors at all, then what evidence CAN we look to in the Scriptures to find an answer to these questions?

    Episode 17 - The Christmas Episdoe

    Merry Christmas everyone! In this episode, Daniel and Nate tackle some of the issues that are NOT really backbone things surrounding the holidays. It's probably best to not yell at your barista for saying "Happy Holidays", and your Christmas tree is probably not a pagan idol.

Jennifer Wilson, wife, mom and founder of the Counterculture School of Apologetics joins Daniel and Nate and shares what she's learned about the love and empowerment that the Gospel brings to women.

    Episode 15 - The Doctrine of the Church (Part 2 - Communion)

    In this episode, Daniel and Nate talk through the first of the two Christian sacraments, communion. They look at the history of the sacrament and its connection to the Old Testament. While it is a backbone issue for Biblical churches to participate in communion on a regular basis, is communion required for salvation?

    Episode 14 - How to Deal With Church Hurt

    In this episode, Daniel and Nate take some time to address an issue related to the doctrine of The Church. Oftentimes, while Christians are called to be a part of a local church body, that local church body and its leaders can be the source of great pain and abuse. How should we deal with abuse of power within the church? When is it time to move on and find a new church? What are some red flags to watch out for? Both of the guys share personal stories from their time in the Church and touch on how even though sinful people can take advantage of God's flock, God can still turn that damaging experience into something beautiful, and we should never fully give up on the Body of Christ.

    Episode 13 - The Doctrine of The Church (Part 1)

    Welcome to the first episode on the topic of Ecclesiology, or the doctrine of the Church. Daniel and Nate work through what the church is (invisible and visible aspects) and the backbone things that each church should have in order to be a Biblical church. While attending a church is not essential to our salvation, it is essential to growing in our faith. Join the conversation! Email: haveabackbonepodcast@gmail.com Instagram: @haveabackbonepodcast
