Is it okay for Christians to suck? What does it mean to care about the thing? We talk about why Christians should and must pursue care, competence, and fruitfulness.

Some people divide up the Mosaic Law into “Moral, Civil, & Ceremonial,” applying one part and counting the rest obsolete. But are we to make such a distinction? If the 4th commandment is still in play, then why do we worship on Sunday? And if it’s not, then how are we to treat Sunday? Is Sunday the “Christian Sabbath?”

The Antioch Declaration has caused quite the stir in some circles. Surprisingly, we weren’t too stirred up by it. As “dispensationalists” why did we not sign it? Do we not want people to sign it? It being such a touchy topic, and because all are yours, we decided to touch it a bit.

Christians are often more comfortable losing than they are winning, especially the ones that say things like, "We lose down here." They might be prepared for times of persecution, but are they prepared for times of prosperity? How should we live in a time of permission, protection, and provision?

Unlike other Christian Colleges that are compromised, compartmentalized, or covenantal, we believe Comeford College is scratching at an itch nobody else is. There's a critical hole in the world of not just higher education, but of Christian thinking and application. Here's what we're doing about it.

In light of his recent passing, we cover a brief history of Philip's grandfather, Aleksey Timofeyevich, and the Russian underground church. It's a story worth telling, specifically in light of America's entry into the "Negative World" and the pressure on western church's to capitulate.

Kuyperianists vs Secularists. Theonomists vs Thomists. Nationalists vs … what? Too many labels. Not enough clarity. And Dispensationalists are sitting on the side lines. Enough of that.

Yes, “of making many books there is no end, and much study is a weariness of the flesh.” (Ecc. 12:12). And yet, “The words of the wise are like goads, and like nails firmly fixed are the collected sayings.” (Ecc. 12:11). All the books are ours to collect and learn from, but if we had to choose a few at the top to be like nails firmly fixed, which would they be? In this episode, Sean and Philip discuss their "top" books.

The vibe in conservative Christian circles has shifted regarding higher education. Many people look down upon formal education, and believe college is an unneccessary waste of time. And yet, we’ve planted Comeford College. Why would we do such a thing?

Fathers and sons. Boomers and Millennials. Pastors and disciples. More often than not, those relationships are full of strife rather than synergy. But it doesn't need to be that way. Sean and Philip talk about how a young man can be a (sanctified) snot, and how an old man can have (sanctified) splendor. How can the strength of young(er) men and the experience of old(er) men work together to carry and advance the mission?
