Podcast Episodes

Pastor, author, editor and blogger par excellence, Trevin Wax, joins us from Nashville. He is one of the minds behind the outstanding Gospel Project. Greg asks him how we avoid giving "be good boys and girls" moral instruction when teaching the Bible to kids. Nathan asks him about the role and mission of the Gospel Coalition.

Nathan and Greg go full-throttled fire-side chat in this episode. Nathan wants to know what things discourage pastors that most pastors won't ever share. And yeah- there may be something to do with Benny Hinn in this episode- sort of.

Dave Shive phones in from an underground bunker in an undisclosed location. Nathan asks Greg and Dave why such a large number of evangelicals are for a dude like Donald Trump. They also continue there conversation on birth control.

Greg and Scott Perry are like kids in a candy store! Scott Garceau- the former voice of the Ravens stops by the podcast to give his take on the 2015 Ravens Season. Nathan is outside most of the time stopping a nosebleed!

Brian Davidson, Nathan's father-in-law, has been doing sports ministry for over 30 years and has traveled all over the world engaging kids and adults with the gospel through the means of sports. Throughout his experiences he's developed something of a theology of sports. 

Get your popcorn buttered and your 2 pound bag of twizzlers ready! Film critic Nathan Bartlebaugh joins Greg and Nathan to talk about the components of a good movie, how a Christian might want to think about what to watch and whether or not "Christian" movies should even be made.

Nathan, Greg and Steve resume their conversation on marital fidelity- this time with a twist- is there ever a road back to vocational ministry for maritally unfaithful pastors? Conventional wisdom among a large number of Christians is "no."  The guys kick around the pros and cons of that premise in this intense episode. They also explore the implications of understanding heaven, hell and the indwelling of the Holy Spirit in a relational way rather than a spatial one.  WHAT??? 

Greg, Nathan and Steve reconnect. Steve can ride his motorcycle with full medical approval! Greg recently heard of a man who abandoned his wife and was prompted to tell Lisa "I will NEVER do that to you." The guys banter about whether or not a husband can do that in light of his own sinful nature. Then the guys just joyfully meander from topic to interesting topic.

Dave Shive makes his first visit since the infamous Calvinism debates! Nathan and Greg ask him questions about the "right" number of kids Christians should have, birth control and "procreation evangelism." Dave's sister and brother-in-law Tammy and Joe Thomas from New Winegate missions also join the panel. They have been missionaries in Germany for the last 9 years and we talk about the current spiritual state of the once glorious seedbed of Protestantism. And please consider supporting the Thomases in this very unique missions work. You can email them at Joeandtammy@newwinegate.com

Tanner, husband, father, med student and co-host of reformedpubcast.com and co-founder of reformedpub.com joins Greg and Nathan. Tanner gives us a great window to the life of a medical student and shares some provocative thoughts on medicine and healthcare.
