This week we unpack a sacramental difference between the Reformed understanding of the Lord's Supper and Rome's understanding of the Eucharist by walking through John 6. Enjoy!

This week is the penultimate episode of our season on the Word and sacraments as means of grace. As we look at WSC 96 we unpack sacramental language, the sign and seal of the Lord's Supper, and dig into some wisdom from John Calvin. We close the episode by addressing Roman Catholic error and answering a question about the administration of the sacraments. Enjoy! Reach out to us at [email protected]

This week we discuss infant baptism as it is handled in question 75 of the Shorter Catechism. Our conversation covers Old and New Covenant continuity, a discussion of arguments from silence, the parallels between the covenant signs of circumcision and baptism. We also briefly look at some intertestamental period history and address modern confusions about baptism and answer some baptism related questions. Enjoy! reach out to us at [email protected]

In our first of two episodes covering baptism we look at a biblical definition of baptism and work through passages that help us understand what baptism is and does. We work through the washing, union with Christ, and the oneness of baptism. We also discuss some odd baptism practices from the earliest centuries of the church and wrestle with the idea of baptismal regeneration. Enjoy!

As we work through the means of grace we are finally starting to ease into the sacraments. This week's episode covers the biblical origins of the two sacraments, engages with ancient liturgy, and challenges the Roman Catholic teaching that there are seven sacraments. We also have a question concerning assurance of salvation. Enjoy! Reach out to us at [email protected]

This week we discuss WSC 92 and its definition of the sacraments. Our discussion focuses on sacraments as sign and seal. This weeks history and heresy dig into the significance and mishandling of sacraments. AND we're happy to say that we've got some questions with the catechism that we start working through; this week's question deals with the justice of God and a concern for evil. Enjoy!
