In this episode, we talk about the meaning of Advent, the virginal conception of Jesus, and other super important topics like our New Year's resolutions.

Dr. Peter Bellini of United Theological Seminary joins us to talk about his new demons, the ministry of deliverance, and book, UNLEASHED! The C1-13 Integrative Deliverance Needs Assessment-A Qualitative and Quantitative Probability Indicator. 

So, "huge" might be stretching it, but we still still think it's pretty cool. Plus, in this episode you get to hear more of Matt Reynolds from Spirit and Truth Ministries. 

In this episode Rev. Jessica LaGrone talks about her faith story, getting better as a preacher, and what she loves most about her job as Dean of the Chapel at Asbury Theological Seminary. The incorrigible Drew McIntyre joins us as a guest host.   

In this episode, we're joined by Dr. Justus Hunter and guest host Jeremiah Ramsey to answer the question, "Why does it matter what we believe." We also get hot takes on who is more awesome, Thomas Aquinas or John Wesley. 

United Theological Seminary's Dr. Luther Oconer joins the PTP crew to talk about his call to ministry, his journey into Spirit-filled Christianity, and his new book, Spirit-Filled Protestantism. 

We're joined in this episode by Rev. Madeline Carrasco Henners, who is a United Methodist pastor in Texas and a student in United's Doctor of Ministry Program. Madeline tells us about  her own journey into a deeper and more meaningful relationship with God and how she learned about the powerful gifts of the Spirit which are available to all believers. This episode was recorded LIVE at our DMin intensive. 

On this episode we're joined by Dr. Tom Jones of Global Awakening. Dr. Jones talks about how God called him into this ministry, how he struggled with God's timing, and how God has been faithful to his promises. We recorded this LIVE at our DMin intensive (so that's why the sound is not fantastic). Enjoy! 

Dr. Joni Sancken, Associate Professor of Homiletics at United Theological Seminary, joins us LIVE from United's Doctor of Ministry intensive. (That's why the sound is kind of tinny.) We talk about preaching, and, in particular, preaching in times of crisis and trauma. 

Maggie, Scott, and David take on the relationship of faith and reason. Are these opposed to each other? Are they compatible? If so, how? We also talk about the field of Christian apologetics, and we find out that Scott has a real thing against Thor worshipers.
