The Perspectivalist welcomes Toby Sumpter to discuss the philosophy behind some recent declarations from Columbia rioters and the overreaction among some on the right. There is a pendulum swing from Gnosticism to materialism, and this is reflected in many of the anti-Jewish sentiments expressed by those on our side of the aisle. Read Toby's article…

Dr. Chase Davis returns to the Perpsectivalist to discuss what is taking place at ACTS 29 as well as the bill that passed overwhelmingly by the House of Representatives called the Antisemitism Awareness Act, which puts serious limitations on free speech as well as hinders Christians from speaking clearly on the role of the Jewish leaders in the dea…

For so many people, Easter Sunday is a one-day event. However glorious it may be for the church's life, it ceases when the day ends. But what if Easter were this 50-day extravaganza meant to mock evil and increase the Christian's joy? In this episode, I offer ten practical ways to keep Easter alive in the home for the next 40 days of Eastertide. Th…

We discuss Aaron's new book, Life in the Negative World. We walk through his taxonomy of positive, neutral, and negative world. Then, we speak about the role of the Church in an age antagonistic to the Gospel and how Christians can respond to our present discourse. Resources: Life in the Negative World by Aaron Renn The Aaron Renn Show Aaron Renn's…

Keith is an example of someone who takes himself lightly and takes denominational differences as a reason for good dialogues but also an opportunity to comedically address our theological idiosyncracies. I have benefited from his YouTube channel and had the joy of hosting him in Pensacola for a talk to our men. This interview will solidify Chestert…

Welcome to our inaugural episode of Season 5! I love talking to good friends, and Jarrod is among the best of them all.

You will also get an intro to RSA, one of the …

In Full-Time: Work and the Meaning of Life, David Bahnsen makes the case that our understanding of work and its role in our lives is deeply flawed – we are unmoored from what he calls “created purpose.” He argues that the time has come to stop tiptoeing around the issues that matter, that separating one’s identity from what they do is demonstrably …

I had Jim Hunter come on the show to discuss gold. Jim has been a strong proponent of gold and views its role as fundamental in the current market. This will be a highly informative discussion, and even if you approach the entire subject from a different angle, you learn a significant amount about its history and has happened since gold was divorce…

My old friend, Alastair Roberts, joins me to discuss the Advent Calendar and its relation to Christmas. This is a really important conversation about the calendar and biblical chronology. This episode looks at the Season of Advent with new eyes; contemplating its place in the Calendar of the Church. Advent precedes Christmas because the emotional a…

This episode offers a quick overview of Thanksgiving and the distinctive nature of giving thanks. Tomorrow, we celebrate a more sacred, religious holiday than Christmas in the U.S. Even unbelievers sit around sharing their reasons for gratitude, but they have to borrow the Christian language of Thanksgiving in order to give thanks. Gratitude has al…

What if I provided a dummies' guide to the life of Samson in 15 minutes? Would you listen to it? Judges 13-16 is fraught with misunderstandings because people want to treat Samson like a 21st-century monk. But Samson is a Nazarite/Priest chosen from his mother's womb. His covenantal context and calling are radically different than just about anythi…

I had a great time chatting with Brandon Lansdown from Reformation Coffee. We met at the Grace Agenda in Moscow, ID and I was really pleased with the coffee beans and the robust quality of their coffee. This was a back porch conversation about coffee experiences and how to move our culture to a more mature coffee-drinking corpus. Type SUBFREE with …

Welcome to this subscriber-only episode, where I continue to offer a chapter-by-chapter review of Through New Eyes. As James Jordan summarizes it: “The highest heaven is invisible to us, but the firmament-heaven gives us a visible blueprint.” So, when we look at the firmament, we see God’s blueprint; we see his heavenly creation and should think ab…

The rise of Oliver Anthony with his hit song, "Rich Men of North Richmond," was a prime example of the anger of the average American with what goes by the mainstream. It is evident that such tyrannical attempts to shape our imagination are not bringing in the ratings they thought they would. Thus, alternative voices have risen from the music, media…

If you are not listening to or watching The Wade Show With Wade, you are missing out on five exhilarating minutes of humor and insight. Wade has brought a unique flavor to comedy. He's Trinitarian and he is embarrassed about the God who made a funny world. So, he looks at the world and ponders, "What's Stupid About it?" then he navigates the news t…

Dr. Scott Aniol is a Reformed Baptist scholar working at G3. His works on worship are essential for anyone interested in developing a rich Psalmic community.

The ACTS 29 Network, once the undeniable powerhouse in the Church Planting universe, has significantly declined in the last ten years. Pastors Chase Davis and Matt Patrick speak openly in this American Reformer piece about the root causes of this abysmal failure among the leadership and what eventually led them to leave the Network. Chase and Matt …

Adam McIntosh, the pastor of St. David's Reformed, published a great article at Theopolis with a provocative title, "Christians Should Baptize Their Children, but Not Because of Circumcision." Adam builds on the biblical theology of the Old Testament and argues that the infant baptism argument, which equates circumcision and baptism, can be confusi…

In light of Trinity Sunday, I wanted to describe the Trinitarian union as a paradigm for historical relations. This episode was designed for those new to covenant theology. I am hoping to offer a few more episodes on the topic. Also, my gratitude to those who read my short essay on History and Headcovering. It's now the second-most-read substack in…

Getting Joffree on the podcast is always a blast of fresh insights. This giant Brazilian has just published a gem of a work! It's brief, but its brevity encompasses the longevity of the human experience. Poetry on pipes and martyrdom, food and manly churchmen. I think this is just in time for Father's Day. Ladies get two joys in purchasing this for…

We are quite pleased to see this work available for purchase. The book is entitled "The Devil's Diet: The Seven Deadly Sins Revisited." I speak with my friend and editor, Rev.

I sat down with Mr. Jordan Bush, a contributor to Thank God for Bitcoin: The Creation, Corruption, and Redemption of Money.

In this subscriber-only episode, we continue our conversation with Dr. Samuel Frost on full preterism. We delve into the Gary Demar controversy and offer our continued concerns with his trajectory, especially his affiliation with notable Hyper-Preterist thinkers. Gary's language today reflects much of the language used by full-preterists at the hei…

Welcome to this new season of The Perspectivalist! Episode 1 of Season 4 begins with an interview with one of the world's foremost scholars on full-preterism, Dr. Samuel Frost. This movement has gained some notoriety recently due to controversies that erupted on social media. Sam was deeply invested in the movement speaking at their main conference…

In our last episode of the season, I argue that the devil is finally vanquished at the end of history, which is at the end of 1,000 years. His death is narrated in three themes: a) The Devil Descends from Misery to Misery: His life is a history of failures and head-crushing. b) The Devil Cannot Keep the Gospel From Going to the Ends of the Earth: W…

The letter sent to Gary DeMar a few weeks ago carries immense repercussions for the life of the Church. Anyone who cherishes the ecclesia for whom Christ died must find refuge in the hope of the resurrection. To deviate from such hope is to lose hope. If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. In this episode, I …

In the last episode, I argued that DeMar was playing with historical fire. His interest in re-considering the CREEDs carry far more repercussions than he may assume. To deny a physical, glorious Second Coming is to deny the very life of the Church in its liturgical and organizational form. I do not believe that the issue is to ask the question, "Wh…

Andrew Sandlin and many others (myself included) sent an open letter to Gary Demar concerning his theological transitions. We posed a few straightforward questions for him to consider. Gary offered an initial podcast response today. In this episode, I begin by addressing the gravity of the matter and whether this is simply a topic for dialogue or w…

Church music is generally relegated to some preference. We are at ease with musical segregation. After all, why would children appreciate great hymns? But does God ordain a certain kind of music for congregational worship that encompasses young and old? Should the Psalms saturate our worship or is it merely a matter of taste? What is Paul's wisdom …

While there is a lot of debate on the recipients of baptism, what does the Bible say about the mode? Does the Old Testament play a role in shaping how we apply water? Is the case for immersion so clear that any alternative is irrelevant? In this subscriber episode, I offer a vision for a mode of baptism rooted in the language of the Old and New Tes…

This is the longest episode I have done so far! I wanted to offer an accessible episode focusing on the nature of Gnosticism and how it has crept into the Church today. The episode delves into its origin, its leader, Marcion, and the evangelical absorption of gnostic thought in worship and practice. I conclude the episode by discussing ways to rid …

What happens when you explore Mr. Collins' character in Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice?" The answer is that you gain an accurate critique of high-churchism; a Collins syndrome that offers the epitome of boredom to those in attendance. In this episode, I explore the nature of high-churchism and how to criticize your own people with a dose of moc…

Welcome to season 3! I wanted to begin this season with an overview of crucial relational components that help us think more clearly about how spheres interact. Here are the first five: a) Each sphere possesses distinct responsibilities and hierarchies (Church, Family, and State). b) The Church is the headquarters since it is fundamentally Edenic i…

Chapter three is perhaps the most succinct vision of biblical symbolism in TNE. In this chapter, James B. Jordan elaborates on the primary and secondary symbols of the Bible but then focuses attention on the three special symbols that God uses to communicate himself to his people. This is the rosetta stone of chapters on symbolism, and it's hard to…

I offer my observations as a participant in the National Conservatism Conference in Miami, Fl. The #natcon was a considerable success primarily because of the Protestant conservative voices. This episode summarizes the three days of lectures and fellowship and is also a bit of a case for why such movements need to blossom. This is my subtle attempt…

My 11-year-old son is a voracious reader. His community stirs him to absorb good literature and cherish good things. In some ways, I am still playing catch up with my reading world. But I am grateful that he carries a love of learning. In this episode, I asked him to start us off with a review of a massive biography of George Washington by the pres…

In this episode, I read an essay that I wrote in the last edition of the "Fight, Laugh, Feast" edition. My essay is entitled: "Culture Wars and the Land God Promised." I argue that the church needs to be prepared to fight the greater battles to win the lesser ones. Further, I offer five suggestions as the Church in conservative states begins to rec…

I do not believe there has been a more theologically impactful book on the interpretive biblical sphere than James B. Jordan's "Through New Eyes: Developing a Biblical View of the World." This book has shaped much of my own thinking, and it has forced me to see and develop a more biblicized approach to the Bible itself. The reason I say "forced" is…

This is the first of many podcasts offering an overview of Through New Eyes by James B. Jordan. In this episode, we discuss the nature of symbols and types and how creational language serves as patterns throughout the Scriptures. This is a quick-and-dirty intro to stir your appetite for more content. My Interview with Canon Calls on "Who is James B…

This is a follow-up episode to the primer on food. These ten delicious minutes communicate the three purposes of food: a) Dependence, b) Dominion, and Divine Worship. I argue, among other things, that the eucharist is not an appendix to our worship, it is the response to our worship. Christians are theological gastronomers. Further, I make the poin…

In seven minutes, I discuss the role of food in the creation account and I try to lay an outline for a future episode on the purpose of food for Christian consumption.

Gary Demar is one of those iconic figures in the eschatological world. He has been writing, debating, and persuading for almost 40 years. He has a host of interests, but the one that has garnered the most attention is his sophisticated, yet, simple approach to eschatology. Gary holds to a position called "preterism," which affirms that most prophes…

In this episode, I argue against weird Christendom. This expression adds strange practices to their lives in order to show their different-ness from others in the Christian community. It's a form of exalted separationism. The case against weird Christendom can only find a solution in mere Christendom: mere creeds, mere lives, mere wine, and mere me…
