"Epistemological Reflections"
In a field like theology, epistemology (or the study of the nature of knowledge) is tremendously important. Not just because the very existence of God is debated; not only because the possibility of the knowledge of God must be addressed in a systematic way; but because the conclusions we make about God and about the security of our knowledge of him should matter for our jobs, our relationships, and how we view ourselves.

"Redemption and Resurrection"
This is the story of a theologian. A first rate, world class New Testament scholar and Systematics professor whose body of work stands quietly in the confluence of two great church traditions, Scottish Presbyterianism and Dutch Neo-Calvinism. But unless you’ve gone to seminary or happen to subscribe to peer reviewed academic journals, there’s a good chance you’ve never heard of Richard B. Gaffin, Jr.

Word & Spirit - Trailer
Few Reformed theologians have exerted the influence in both the church and the academy that Richard B. Gaffin, Jr. has, shaping the theology and spiritual formation of generations of pastors and teachers. Until now, his most significant published works have been inaccessible to most theological readers, published in academic journals, denominational newsletters, and out of print festschrifts and essay collections. A decade in the making, Word & Spirit gathers Gaffin’s finest works of biblical and systematic theology and arranges them in a singular, organic whole that presents Gaffin’s thought and work as comprehensively and clearly as it ever has been. More than 40 essays, articles, and tracts have been compiled, including “The Usefulness of the Cross”, No Adam, No Gospel, “A Cessationist View,” and “The Work of Christ Applied”. This collection is a must-have for any student of theology.

"The Active Obedience of Christ" (Chapter 49)
Shortly before dawn on a cold North Dakota morning, a telegram was sent to John Murray, professor of systematic theology at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia.
“I’m so thankful for the active obedience of Christ,” it read, “no hope without it.”
Not long after composing this telegram, J. Gresham Machen died after a short battle with pneumonia and entered the eternal rest of his savior, who had redeemed his sins and given him peace with God.
Not long before he left for North Dakota, Machen wrote and recorded the message you’re about to listen to. It’s these thoughts—of the incomprehensible act of salvation--which occupied him as he considered the prospect of meeting his Savior face to face.

Customer Reviews
Outstanding
This is an outstanding podcast. I grew up in a home with a father who went to seminary in the late 60’s early 70’s. I grew up on Fosdick’s theology!! Praise God I left that theology and found the truth in Christ. This podcast is helping me connect the dots between the liberal theology I grew up with and Christianity.
Outstanding interviews and production
I’m blown away by the high production value of this Christian podcast! From the intro music to the sound editing, everything is sharp and perfectly presented. I’m also impressed by the guests brought on the show and the interviews that ensue. I hope this keeps going on for a long long time.
The Christianity and Liberalism series is remarkable
This is well produced and has some deeply insightful perspectives applying one of the most important books of the last century to this century where the subissues are different but not the core issue. You can have Christianity or (theological) Liberalism but not both.
