    Zachary Garris Defrocked By The Presbyterian Church...For Believing The Bible | Ezekiel 34:1-7

    This episode of the Right Response Ministries Podcast opens with Ezekiel 34:1–7 and applies its warning to modern church leadership, focusing on the Rio Grande Presbytery (PCA) indefinitely suspending teaching elder Zachary Garris. The hosts discuss two charges: an accusation tied to his liking a tweet about slavery (dismissed) and a charge of “corrupt speech” based solely on two X replies to Dr. Anthony Bradley, which they argue were benign. They contend the presbytery is using the disciplinary process as punishment, especially in light of Garris’s writings (Masculine Christianity, Honor Thy Fathers, and Dabney on Fire) promoting patriarchal, anti-feminist themes and defending Christian forefathers. They argue such actions reveal broader denominational corruption, compare current church leaders unfavorably to Reformers’ rhetoric, and conclude by urging pastors and church planters to avoid joining denominations in the present climate. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* *Genesis Gold Group*Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles.https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com *Backwards Planning Financial*Want to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    Celibacy Is Exceedingly Rare & Singleness Is A Curse | Matthew 19:10-12

    In this Right Response Ministries podcast episode, the hosts discuss Matthew 19:10–12 to argue that celibacy is a rare, sovereign gift from God and that lifelong singleness is a vocation only for those given that gift. They contrast “gift of celibacy” with “vocation of singleness,” insisting marriage is honorable and not spiritually inferior, rejecting the idea that celibacy is a higher tier of Christianity. They claim most men lack celibacy because lust and sexual desire reveal the absence of the gift, critique mandatory clerical celibacy (including Catholicism), and use Martin Luther as an example of misapplied celibacy ideals. Addressing a modern singleness epidemic, they urge most men to pursue marriage sooner rather than later, while offering a caveat that some men may need to delay marriage for elite institutional roles and must exercise extreme sexual self-control. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles.https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning FinancialWant to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    The Rebel Son and the True Son - Introduction to Biblical Typology | 2 Samuel 18:9-15

    This Right Response Ministries podcast episode reads 2 Samuel 18:9–15 and uses Absalom’s rebellion and death as an example of Old Testament typology, contrasting Absalom as an anti-type with Jesus as the obedient Son of David who is “hung on a tree” and pierced, not for His own sins but for His people. The hosts argue typology is a powerful apologetic for Christianity against Islam and Judaism, since it is grounded in real historical events rather than allegory, and it highlights the internal consistency and “majesty” of Scripture. They also discuss broader patterns such as Jesus as the true and better Israel, reenacting Israel’s story in His life and succeeding where Israel failed, and they clarify that the church is Israel by union with Christ, comprising both Jew and Gentile who believe in Jesus. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles. https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning Financial Want to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    Gold Built The West | Leviticus 19:35-36

    This episode opens with Leviticus 19:35–36 on honest weights and measures and applies the biblical idea of justice to money, commerce, and economic life. The hosts connect classical Christian thought (including Thomas Aquinas) to the moral question of debased currency, arguing that fiat money’s ongoing devaluation creates unequal exchange over time. Guest Bill Armor discusses why gold has historically functioned as “sound money,” pointing to its scarcity, density, durability, and biblical significance, and contrasts gold’s finiteness with governments’ ability to expand money supply and debt. The conversation traces how stable high-purity gold coinage supported trade and trust across Christendom, notes historical cycles of currency debasement (including Rome), and discusses declining global confidence in the U.S. dollar alongside increased national gold buying. The episode closes by encouraging listeners to gain knowledge and consider portfolio diversification and qualified retirement rollovers into physical precious metals. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles.https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning FinancialWant to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    You're Not Called To Pastor (Unless This Is True) | 1 Timothy 4:11-16

    Using 1 Timothy 4:11–16 and the elder qualifications of 1 Timothy 3, this episode explains pastoral calling and ordination by outlining the key requirements for ministry. Pastor Joel argues that the first qualification is calling—an inward desire to be an elder—followed by character and competency, especially being “apt to teach” so others profit from Scripture. He distinguishes true calling from a culturally assumed desire for ministry and stresses that inward desire must be tested by an outward call: a meaningful body of spiritually mature believers who actually want a man to pastor them. The conversation also notes that not all qualified men should become elders, that hierarchy and “first among equals” matter, and that compatibility with a church’s specific context affects who should fill the pulpit. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles.https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning FinancialWant to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    The Christian Doctrine of Traducianism | Psalm 139:13–17

    The episode opens with Psalm 139:13–17. They discuss traducianism—the view that a child’s soul is generated through parents rather than created ex nihilo at conception—using Freud vs. Jung to frame individualism versus shared, inherited realities, and drawing on examples from Tolkien, “blood,” and spiritual “longings.” They contrast creationism of the soul with traducianism and a generational “third way,” citing Tertullian, Gregory of Nyssa, and Jerome, and argue traducianism better accounts for original sin, federal headship, and Christ’s sinlessness, while defending God from being seen as creating a sinful soul. They address objections about the soul’s immateriality with a fire/flame analogy, connect the discussion to race realism as “families of the earth,” and claim the view aligns with young-earth creationism and adaptation “according to kinds,” with implications for civic policy and Christian stewardship across generations. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles. https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning Financial Want to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    AI Will Force Conservatives To Be Socialists | Genesis 2:15

    On this episode of the Right Response Ministries podcast, the hosts discuss AI’s rapid advance and the likelihood that it will automate a massive share of both knowledge work and manual labor, arguing this isn’t comparable to past innovations like the cotton gin because AI can be embodied in robots that outperform humans in productivity, speed, and safety. They contend this shift will collapse familiar political and economic binaries (capitalism vs. socialism, small vs. big government) as large portions of willing workers become unemployable, forcing societies toward some form of redistribution and state-managed labor to preserve human purpose and dignity. They argue governments, with their coercive taxing power, will become the primary consumers and regulators in an AI arms-race world, and they call for Christians to think theologically about work, pursue wisdom, and place righteous men in government to restrain tech elites and guide policy—framing it as “Christian nationalism or bust.” *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles.https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning FinancialWant to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?

    Christianity Is OBJECTIVE | Romans 10:9-10

    This episode uses Romans 10:9–10 and 1 John 1:7–9 to address why many Christians struggle with assurance of salvation, arguing that Christianity is objective and not grounded in fluctuating feelings. The hosts contrast Protestant introspection and “navel-gazing” with Rome’s overly mechanical objectivity, noting pitfalls on both sides, and discuss how modern psychologizing has separated emotions from obedient action. They emphasize that God gives objective helps—confession of sin, confession of faith (agreeing with God’s word), the church’s covenant renewal worship, and the Lord’s Supper as a real means of grace—to bolster faith without reducing salvation to ritual. Faith remains necessary, but believers can rest in God’s faithful and just promise to forgive and cleanse those who confess, and take confidence in wanting Christ and continuing in obedience. *MINISTRY SPONSORS:* Genesis Gold Group Faith-Based Gold IRA: Genesis Gold Group helps Christians protect their retirement with physical precious metals aligned with scriptural stewardship principles. https://www.RightResponseBibleGold.com Backwards Planning Financial Want to build a financial legacy for your family with a plan that starts at the end goal?
