Episode Snapshot

John Mark and Johnny sit down with theologian Daniel Scheiderer for a deep dive into covenant theology. From his studies with Dr. Steven Wellum at Southern Seminary to real-world ministry conversations, Daniel helps us compare progressive covenantalism, new covenant theology, Presbyterian Federalism and 1689 federalism—and why these distinctions matter for Baptists today.

Key Sections

Progressive Covenantalism 101 – How it synthesizes biblical-theological themes without flattening covenants.

Law & Gospel Nuance – Why the moral law remains, even when covenantal administrations change.

1689 Federalism – Overlap and friction points with progressive frameworks.

Meet the Guest

Daniel Scheiderer is a pastor-theologian and PhD candidate who studied under Dr. Steven Wellum at The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. His research focuses on covenant development across redemptive history and its implications for Baptist ecclesiology.
