    Reformed Churches' Bible College: PNG Lessons on Evangelism

    Mark Mulder served as vice principal in John Calvin Christian school in the Perth area of Western Australia. In this fascinating interview, we learn how Mark and his wife Liz exchanged their comfortable suburban life for a life in a foreign mission field. They sold all they had to follow the Lord's calling. Mark was urged by several friends to apply for the position of Principal of The Reformed Churches' Bible College in Port Moresby PNG. At first he resisted  but on Liz's urging took on the challenge  Mark now abounds in passion for the work of RCBC. Listen as Mark discuss the work of the Bible College and the lessons we can learn from mission in PNG   for our own evangelism in the west. www.tyrannushallpodcast.ca www.facebook.com/tyrannushallpodcast

    Should Churches Have Vision and Mission Statements?

    If you know your church has great potential to impact its community and you believe you need a mission and vision statement written down before you get started, then this episode is for you. Winston and Bill pick the brain of marketing agency owner Chris vanPopta to explore the question: Does a church need a mission or vision statement to be on mission for Christ? Somewhere during the interview, Bill and Winston have the tables turned on them and Chris asks them some great questions too! The ending may surprise you. www.tyrannushallpodcast.ca www.facebook.com/tyrannushallpodcast

    From Church Plant to Institution

    In this episode we meet John Siebenga, a retired Christian school teacher and principal, a licensed Christian counsellor, and journeyman carpenter. He and his wife are members of Houston Canadian Reformed Church in British Columbia. They were wondering where they might be engaged in God’s kingdom work in their retirement years. They considered volunteering in overseas mission work, but then their attention was drawn to the work that the neighbouring Church in Smithers was doing in Prince George. John and Betty got deeply involved in the church planting that Pastor Tim Schouten was doing. In the very recent past, John who is a member in Houston, was leant by Smithers to be an elder in the Prince George church plant. He has a fascinating story to tell that demonstrates how retirees can be engaged in a meaningful way in the advance of the Kingdom and the upbuilding of the church. www.tyrannushallpodcast.ca www.facebook.com/tyrannushallpodcast

    Greg Davidson

    Our guest today is Pastor Greg Davidson. Greg very recently became co-pastor at  Blessings Christian Church working with Tyrannus Hall co-host Bill de Jong. Greg was the pastor at Central Presbyterian, a Presbyterian Church in Canada congregation in downtown Hamilton. While he still has many friends in the wider church, Greg shares some of his concerns about “the protestant movement” in general and some encouragement for the “confessionally Reformed movement” of which he is now a member. www.tyrannushallpodcast.ca www.facebook.com/tyrannushallpodcast

    "The Great Commission" and the Mission of the Church

    Is the Great Commission correctly used as foundational to the theology of missions? Our guest, Kristen Johnson is Dean and Vice President of Academic Affairs at Western Theological Seminary in Holland, Michigan, where she holds the G.W. and Edna Haworth chair for Education, Ministry, and Leadership. Kristen has done extensive research on Matthew 28:16-20. This week we discover answers to questions we never dreamt of asking! When did the church begin to use this text to describe and underwrite the mission of the church? The early church did not use this text to motivate its mission mandate. In the 1500’s a new impetus to mission activity arose in the church. However, it is not until several centuries later that this text becomes foundational to a theology of mission. The Heidelberg Catechism references this text several times, but never connected to a missionary mandate.  Bill and Winston interview Kristen with various questions in relation to her research: 1. Has the contemporary church made a mistake by using this text as foundational to a theology of missions? 2. Has Tyrannus Hall erred in using the tagline that "our mission is to make the Great Commission every church’s mission and every Christian’s passion”? 3. Looking at this text, what is the relationship between mission and discipleship? 4. Should Christians bear guilt for not actively engaging in bringing the gospel to our neighbours? 5. What does Eugene Peterson say about the missionary mandate of Christians? www.tyrannushallpodcast.ca www.facebook.com/tyrannushallpodcast
