With the Trinity being central to the Christian faith, one shouldn't be surprised by the litany of heresies that have been lobbed at it over the centuries and millenniums.

On this episode, we explain and dismantle different errors and heresies, and give ample time to dispute an error called EFS (Eternal Functional Subordination), which has become popular even among reputable, reformed theologians.

Mankind is commanded to subdue the earth and have dominion over it (Genesis 1:28). But the prevailing cultural attitude seems to be divided into two camps: a harmful aloofness of creation or a radical, no-holds-barred obsession with saving “Mother Nature,” even to the detriment of image-bearers.

How is the Christian to navigate these obstacles? And how does rejoicing in creation—from the tallest mountain to the smallest prairie flower—help us worship its Creator more?

Scripture commands unswervingly that parents are to raise their children in the discipline and instruction of the Lord, but what about children who aren’t saved?
