In this Session of the Coffee House, Timothy Decker joins Jonny and John-Mark to discuss the practice of 'textual criticism' in biblical studies and pastoral ministry. They dig deep into the issue of whether the language of 'criticism' is helpful, how this practice has been a useful tool to the church in the past and why it still has relevance to the church today. They also touch on issues of church and state, preaching and academia, the relationship between systematic theology, biblical studies and pastoral ministry, and the place of the Johannine Comma (found in 1 John 5:7-8) within the Scriptures.

Timothy is Pastor at Trinity Reformed Baptist Church, VA and teaches New Testament at International Reformed Baptist Seminary and Covenant Baptist Theological Seminary. He has recently written "A Revolutionary Reading of Romans 13" and regularly blogs at CBTS where his articles on textual criticism and the Reformed Tradition can be found.

In this episode, Jonny and John-Mark are joined by James Dolezal to discuss the weaknesses of revelational epistemology in theology. They begin by discussing Barth's approach to revelational epistemology, before moving to more contemporary approaches often labelled 'Van Tillian' or 'Reformed'. Some key figures discussed in this episode are Barth, Descartes, Kant, Aquinas, and Cornelius Van Til. The guys close by discussing some implications, and making the positive case for a classic nature / grace distinction in epistemology, where the Word of God bears upon all things pertaining to salvation.

What does Liverpool, the IRA, conversion to Christ, a call to the ministry and a confessional Baptist church have in common?

Born and bred in Liverpool, minister Eddie Roberts joins the Coffee House Sessions for an interview only a scouser (slang for Liverpudlian) can give. 

With an unconventional family background in both the IRA and Roman Catholicism, Eddie shares how Christ drew him from political protestantism to a saving knowledge of God.

He then explains how he entered into the Christian ministry before eventually leading a Liverpool church to adopt the Second London Baptist Confession of Faith amid challenges facing the congregation.

Lots of themes are explored in this episode from 'Christian Nationalism' to the right approach to church youth work. Tune in to find out more...
