In this episode we distinguish biblical miracles from extraordinary providence. Not every unusual event is a “miracle” because that erodes the meaning of the term. Watch how Scripture ties miracles to periods of new revelation, and argues for careful definitions rooted in church history and the purpose of signs.

Every Christian wrestles with sin, but does that mean you’re not truly saved? In this episode, we unpack what the Bible teaches about sanctification, the ongoing battle with sin, and the assurance believers can have in Christ. We also delve into some theology... is sanctification synergistic or monergistic? Or, neither?

Why does the modern church struggle so much with eschatology, the study of the last days? Too often, conversations become sensational, focused more on prophecy charts and news cycles than on Christ Himself. In this episode, we unpack why every generation thinks their time is the end, the dangers of date-setting, and how fear-based teaching erodes trust.

Gen Z is flocking to Eastern Orthodoxy and Roman Catholicism, drawn by cathedrals, incense, and a sense of tradition they don’t find in modern evangelical churches. But what’s really behind this trend, and what dangers should we be aware of? At the end of the day, Christianity is not about icons, rituals, or even historical grandeur, it’s about the finished work of Jesus Christ. The gospel gives us full assurance of salvation by grace alone through faith alone, and nothing can be added to that.

Most churches today avoid it. Jesus commanded it. So why is church discipline almost nonexistent in modern Christianity?

In this episode, we unpack the biblical, historical, and pastoral case for church membership and church discipline, two non-negotiables if we’re going to call ourselves a true New Testament church. From Matthew 18 to the Belgic Confession, from early church persecution to modern Lone Ranger Christianity, we trace how the church lost its grip on one of Christ’s most loving and necessary commands.

In this episode of Christianly, we answer your most talked-about questions, from the legacy of John MacArthur to the mystery of the Nephilim. We discuss how Christians should respond to government mandates, what pastoral authority really means, how to stay united with believers who hold different theological views, how to foster meaningful Lord’s Day worship at home, and how to disciple singles without treating them like second-tier Christians. Plus, ever wondered what Pastor Tony’s Sunday comfort meal is or his hot take on the WNBA? If your question didn’t make it into this episode, drop it in the comments for next time!

What does the Bible really say about money, generosity, and prosperity? In this podcast, we examine the theology behind popular offering declarations, the prosperity gospel, and even the poverty gospel. What should we make of teachings from Bethel, Piper, or Platt? Is it wrong to want financial blessing? Does God call all believers to give everything away? Join us as we explore Jesus' teachings, Paul's principles, and what faithful stewardship looks like in a culture obsessed with both wealth and minimalism.
