Scripture Is the Only Source and Norm of Christian Theology
Scripture is the source of Christian theology. What do we mean by Scripture, and what does it mean to have a norm? The Thinking Fellows discuss how proper theology is not speculative or originating from personal revelation, but is instead from the font of the prophetic and apostolic books of the Old and New Testament.

Are Roman Catholics Christians?
Caleb Keith, Adam Francisco, and Bruce Hilman address the opinion that Roman Catholics are not Christians. The fellows conclude that Roman Catholics are not by necessity excluded from saving faith and trust in Jesus Christ. This leads to a conversation about how specific confessions and denominations are still necessary, even if affiliation with the correct group is not the sole indicator of saving faith.

Customer Reviews
Salt of the earth
3 old salts that haven't lost their saltiness. Could use a little pepper though. They're like 3 quarks spinning the same direction or 3 blonde waitresses at the truck stop. Every baseball player knows that a good coach will sometimes take him back to the basics. These fellows consistently plant their back foot on the cross of Christ and the empty tomb. Solid scriptural teaching illuminates both historical and modern Christian teachers. No bells or whistles but if you want Rock solid Theology then step up to the plate. Amen, Sensible Christianity is the most understandable & thorough course on apologetics I have ever listened to. Thanks for finally discussing tall Tolkien. Adam stated he’d like a year to read his works but in my case I appreciated it moreThe third or fourth time through Adam cracked a joke!
Thanks for your consistency in this ever-changing world which we live in it’s good to have our feet on some Ruck solid ground

Good and theologically sound
If you like conversational podcasts this one is for you. It gives a nice high level over view of topics. It helps provoke your own thoughts. Might be boring for some as it is a lot of opinion based conversation.
Catholics Christian
How do you do a show on this issue and bring up the book of Galatians?
