Helpful Discussion of the Westminster Confession of Faith

I greatly enjoyed listening to these podcasts! The humor took some time to get used to. I like the format of pastors explaining and commenting on the WCF as opposed to theologians. The WCF becomes understandable and applicable to daily life. There are gems in every episode!
With time I came to (mostly) appreciate their humor. They are four pastors who are friends. The life of a pastor is very stressful as they deal with so many problems during the week. When they come together for the podcast, they clearly enjoy being together and bantering.

Fantastic Podcast!

I am a new subscriber and I have really enjoyed listening to these guys walk through the WCF! They are incredibly knowledgeable, and they know how to have a good time! I am currently a reformed baptist on a theological journey towards sometime of reformed Presbyterian confessionalism, and these guys seem to be doing a good job of answering all of my questions! Check them out!

Superb Podcast

The brothers responsible for this podcast have done the church an amazing service. This is a patient, painstaking exposition of the Westminster Confession of Faith and is highly recommended to those who are interested in Reformed theology. The only question is why you haven't subscribed yet...
