The Remnant Radio educates and equips believers in God's Word & Spirit, exploring Christian theology, church history, and the gifts of the Spirit in a manner that is engaging, relatable, and inspiring. Weekly, we bring together Christian influencers from various denominations to explore theology, church history, and the gifts of the Spirit. We don't always agree with the views of our guests. And, we don’t expect that you will always agree, either. But we are brothers and sisters in Christ, and we agree to humbly approach God’s Word so we can better understand it together. In each episode, we strive to offer constructive dialogue and healthy pushback without veering into argumentative or combative territory. Expect each Remnant Radio episode to be not only informative but also encouraging, entertaining, and, hopefully, inspiring. Our ultimate goal is to help every individual break out of their theological echo chamber and engage in the conversation. Visit our website and subscribe to our newsletter at www.theremnantradio.com.

    The Philosophy That Built the Liberal Mind: Descartes to Marx w/ Dr. Jordan Cooper

    Why do we need a nuclear family? What actually determines the difference between a boy and a girl? These feel like brand-new questions, but the ideas that make them askable were actually seeded four hundred years ago. Dr. Jordan Cooper joins us to trace them back to their source. ABOUT THE EPISODE:  Lutheran theologian and pastor Dr. Cooper walks Josh through the philosophical roots of the modern progressive mind and the broader philosophy of the left: Descartes and Cartesian doubt, Kant's Copernican Revolution, Hume's empiricism and skepticism, Hobbes's social contract theory, and Thomas Paine's radical individualism, the intellectual scaffolding beneath everything from critical theory to postmodernism. It's the same scaffolding underneath the questions above. Once Hume argues that even something as basic as cause and effect is just an assumption rather than a certainty, and Kant argues that categories like space and time are imposed by the mind rather than discovered in the world, the door opens to treating categories like family and gender the same way: not given, but constructed, and open to being remade. Dr. Cooper's book Makers of the Modern Mind grew out of years doing campus ministry at Cornell, watching students absorb progressive assumptions and secular philosophy they'd never actually examined. Drawing on his background in Lutheran theology and Christian apologetics, this conversation is a guided tour through where those assumptions came from, and why the question underneath almost all of them, in philosophy, politics, and the modern culture wars alike, is simply: what is a human being? 0:00 – Introduction 1:14 – Dr. Jordan Cooper 2:45 – Lutheran Branding Problem 4:21 – Makers of the Modern Mind 10:23 – Union With Christ Doctrine 16:30 – Descartes' Cogito Ergo Sum 26:38 – Kant's Copernican Revolution 31:33 – David Hume's Skepticism 42:35 – Thomas Paine & Liberalism 51:21 – Right Vs Left Liberalism 56:52 – Applying Philosophy Today ABOUT THE GUEST: 📖https://www.amazon.com/Makers-Modern-Mind-Thinkers-Formed/dp/1952295823 Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Is Speaking in Tongues Biblical? Our Honest Take

    A pastor pulls a college kid on stage, lays hands on him, tells him to "speak the holy language," and when nothing comes out, tells him his faith is weak. That's the true story that opens a recent Dial In Ministries episode on tongues. We're responding to their episode . . . and we agree with more of it than you'd expect.  ABOUT THE EPISODE:  Jonny Ardavanis and Hank Bowen make a solid biblical case that tongues in Acts and 1 Corinthians means real human languages, not gibberish or glossolalia in the ecstatic-speech sense, and that "tongues of angels" in 1 Corinthians 13 is rhetorical, not literal. We agree with them on both.  Where we split: they're arguing from a cessationist frame — that the sign gifts of the Holy Spirit ceased with the apostles. We're continuationists and believe the gift of tongues is still active in the church today. We'll discuss where we agree and disagree on the exegesis, and why we land in a different place on whether spiritual gifts like this one continue. 0:00 – Introduction 0:17 – Dial In Ministries Overview 1:57 – Rowntree's Opening Thoughts 2:43 – Miller's Opening Thoughts 4:41 – Acts 2 Known Languages 8:49 – Xenolalia Vs Glossolalia 21:29 – Acts 10 And 19 28:21 – 1 Corinthians 14 Tongues 33:52 – Prayer Language Debate 43:52 – Baptism Of Holy Spirit 53:48 – Preaching Versus Experience 1:04:41 – Tongues In Church History Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    History of Magical Arts in the Bible: Egypt & Mesopotamia

    Pharaoh's magicians didn't fake it. Exodus 7 says they did the same thing Moses and Aaron did, "by their secret arts." So what does the Bible actually say is happening when magic works? ABOUT THE EPISODE: Nelly Van Sickle, pastor at Evergreen Calvary Chapel and creator of The Dancing Toaster Podcast joins Remnant Radio to walk through his "History of Magic" series, a biblical dig into where magic in the Bible actually comes from, starting in the ancient Near East with Egypt and Mesopotamia. Egypt called its force Heka, something built into the fabric of creation itself, not invoked so much as cooperated with. Mesopotamian mythology named its spirits and negotiated with them directly. If the power on display in Old Testament magic was real, where did it actually come from, and why does Deuteronomy 18 treat some of it as off-limits instead of harmless nonsense? Dr. Michael Heiser used to point out that God doesn't legislate against things that don't exist, and that idea sits underneath this whole conversation: a biblical worldview takes demonology seriously precisely because it takes the supernatural worldview of Scripture seriously. From there, the conversation turns to names, authority, and who actually gets to use the power of Jesus's name in spiritual warfare (think Sons of Sceva). Nelly also shares how researching the ancient occult reshaped his own theology of the supernatural, moving him from cautious and functionally cessationist toward a more continuationist conviction, wanting to see the gifts of the Spirit practiced rightly. The occult is surging back into Western culture, and most Christians don't have a framework for it beyond "that's not real" or "don't go near it." This episode is an attempt to give you one. Join us as we trace the history of magic and the authority we have in Christ to stand against it. 0:00 – Introduction 1:19 – Nelly Van Sickle 2:20 – Origins of History of Magic 3:45 – Egyptian Magic in Exodus 8:03 – Mesopotamian Spiritual Worldview 11:47 – Myth of White Magic 16:04 – Naming Spirits and Deities 21:07 – Egypt's Heka System 33:05 – Yahweh's Name and Authority 37:38 – Continuationist Cessationist Testimony 45:36 – Magical Practices and Divination 59:05 – Why Context Matters Today Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Is Deuteronomy 18 the Test for Modern Prophets?

    Deuteronomy 18 is the traditional chapter people reach for to test a prophet. But is Deut 18 the right test for the modern church? Or is it more nuanced for the New Covenant? Does modern prophecy in the local church operate the same? Josh, Michael, and Michael will examine Deut 18 together and explore whether this passage operates the same in the modern church as it did with Moses and a theocratic nation. 0:00 – Introduction 0:41 – Cessationist Video Response 4:30 – Reading Deuteronomy 18:15-22 8:02 – Christ Exclusive View 10:43 – Early Church Fathers Quotes 15:04 – Combined View Explained 19:25 – Meaning of Presumptuously 24:20 – Deuteronomy 13 vs 18 32:03 – Nathan Misses Prophecy 43:56 – Acts 21:4 Analysis 1:13:05 – True vs False Prophets 1:18:33 – Accountability and Closing Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    What Happens When the Breakthrough Doesn't Come? | Dr. Craig Keener on Suffering

    Have you ever prayed for a breakthrough that never came, and wondered what that says about your faith? Dr. Craig Keener, one of the most respected New Testament scholars, says we're only looking at half the story. He joins Remnant Radio to explore the theology of suffering - not as a theological afterthought for the Spirit-filled believer, but an essential part of the story Scripture actually tells. ABOUT THE EPISODE: Dr. Craig Keener, F.M. and Ada Thompson Professor of Biblical Studies at Asbury Theological Seminary, has spent his career defending the biblical and historical case for the miraculous. His two-volume Miracles is an essential read for believers (also available in his shorter version Miracles Today). His newest book on suffering turns to the question that so often gets left unanswered: what do we do when we've prayed, and prayed, and the diagnosis doesn't change? Keener explores what Scripture actually shows us about suffering and healing side by side, including in the lives of the apostles. The conversation moves through difficult ground in Christian theology: whether suffering can be God's will, how the crucifixion holds together the greatest evil and the greatest good in human history, and why the two churches in Revelation given no correction from Christ are the two enduring persecution. This isn't an argument against miracles. Keener has given his career to defending them. Rather, it's an invitation to hold suffering and hope together, the way Scripture always has. 0:00 – Introduction 2:06 – Keener's Testimony and Ministry 4:16 – Why Write About Suffering 8:38 – Western vs Global Suffering 14:19 – The Problem of Evil 15:55 – Miracles as Foretaste 23:10 – Purpose Found in Suffering 32:52 – Keener's Divorce and PTSD 41:34 – Faith Defined Rightly 44:46 – Birth Pangs and New Creation 54:16 – Caring for the Poor 58:48 – God's Will and Suffering ABOUT THE GUEST: - Dr. Craig Keener's website — https://craigkeener.com - Suffering: Its Meaning for the Spirit-Filled Life by Craig S.

    John Bevere's "Under Cover" | Biblical Authority or Spiritual Abuse?

    What happens when submission to God quietly becomes submission to a leader? When questioning your pastor starts getting treated like questioning God? Those are the questions we're exploring as we review John Bevere's "Under Cover," one of the most widely read books on spiritual authority in the modern charismatic Church. We're holding up the book's conclusions against Hebrews 13, Romans 13, and what Jesus himself said about leaders exercising authority over believers. Does "Under Cover" hold up? Or does it hand pastors an authority the New Testament never actually gives them? To be clear, we're not arguing against leadership or real spiritual authority rightly stewarded. We're asking where the line sits between genuine biblical submission and spiritual abuse dressed up in biblical language. For a lot of people in the body of Christ right now, that line has gotten blurry, and it's cost them. 0:00 – Introduction 9:57 – Romans 13 and Submission 28:03 – Spheres of Delegated Authority 41:40 – James and Jerusalem Council 59:48 – Submission Versus Obedience 1:18:59 – "Not Being Fed" Excuse 1:31:52 – Discerning Leaders' Decisions 1:39:38 – Exposing Versus Concealing Sin 1:48:28 – Korah's Rebellion Explained 1:55:52 – Ham, Noah, Cover-Up Culture 2:02:33 – Miriam, Aaron, Judgment 2:20:45 – Closing Thoughts and Resources Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.

    Kathryn Krick: Ignite Revival or False Fire?

    At Kathryn Krick's Houston book signing for "Ignite Revival," over 200 people showed up. Attendees ended up on the floor, shaking, weeping and convulsing, while Krick kept signing copies of her book and called it "revival." Plenty of people online are calling it staged or coercive. Instead of responding to the experiences, Joshua Lewis and Michael Rowntree read the book itself. What they found was more like cultish language than Scripture-based teaching. Krick promotes a clear structure where apostles and prophets hold the greatest anointing, disagreement gets dismissed as "old wine," and readers are steered away from any teacher outside Krick's own lineage, a lineage she traces to her "spiritual father," Tanzanian prophet GeorDavie, not to ordination or accountability.  Josh and Michael compare the book against Scripture, chapter and verse. They land on why this pattern isn't just concerning . . . Kathryn Krick is mark and avoid. 0:00 – Introduction 2:49 – Katherine Krick Book Overview 6:53 – Apostles Prophets Greater Anointing 16:42 – Prophetic Reward Prosperity Claims 22:16 – Five-Fold Ministry Holiness 38:44 – Discrediting Other Ministries 45:29 – Old Wine New Wine Doctrine 50:25 – Removing Disagreement Dissent 56:58 – Spiritual Buffet Isolation Tactics 1:03:06 – Katherine's Unique Anointing Claims 1:06:51 – Spiritual Father Pecking Order 1:17:33 – Closing Thoughts PREVIOUS RR EPISODE ON KATHRYN KRICK: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5_ifO5PX4NQ Subscribe to The Remnant Radio newsletter and receive our FREE introduction to spiritual gifts eBook.
