How much do you know about Martin Luther? Martin Luther is a monk turned Protestant Reformer. His nailing the 95 Theses to the Castle Church door in Wittenberg, Germany on October 31, 1517 is considered to be the spark that lit the Protestant Reformation. Now, Martin never intended to cause a schism in the church, but God used Luther to reveal the cancerous corruption that had grown in the Roman Catholic Church and brought the Scriptures to the common man through Luther's translation of the Bible into German, the common vernacular. Martin Luther's story is one of epic adventure and faith-building miracles as you see how God unfolded his sovereign plan for his glory and the good of his people. Join us as we discuss the story of Martin Luther's Life with Author Danika Cooley from ThinkingKidsPress.com. We will be discussing her book When Lightning Struck!: The Story of Martin Luther. Click here to read our written review.

This season is all about being intentional as Christians in every area of our lives. One of those important areas is in the education of our children. The topic of slavery is a contentious one in our society for a myriad of reasons. It is difficult enough tackling this topic among adults, but many parents struggle with how to introduce this heavy subject with young children. Join us as we discuss how to teach children about slavery from a Christian worldview with our guest, Author Danika Cooley from ThinkingKidsPress.com. We will be discussing her newest three books that have been added to her Who? What? Why? series: Who Were the Abolitionists?, What Was the Underground Railroad?, and Why Did Slavery End?.

How should a Christian approach holidays? Some Christians choose not to celebrate any holidays. Other Christians choose to go along with the flow and celebrate holidays as they were taught, and often very similarly to how the world celebrates (i.e. Halloween, Santa, Easter Bunny). A growing number of Christians are opting to be more intentional in their approach to holidays, doing their research concerning the roots of certain holidays, and instituting purposeful traditions that point their families to Christ. Of course this is a spectrum and not everyone lands in the same place, and that's okay. Our goal in this podcast is to help Christians think through some of those details and at least start you down a path of intentionality in your celebrations. Let us know what you think by leaving a 5-star review or leaving a comment. We would love to hear what traditions you have in your home!

We grew up ignorant of history and entrenched in modern evangelical culture. This church culture led us to believe that it was most beneficial to shop around for our future spouse by dating a lot of duds until we found "the one." After seeing the myriad of pitfalls inherent in this model, we have opted for a different way in helping our children find a spouse. Join us in this episode as we define the courtship model, and discuss biblical principles of for finding one's spouse. In the end, the terminology we use doesn't matter. The word courtship does not find its roots in Scripture; the principles for finding a spouse, however, are revealed in Scripture. To be truly consistent in our application of those principles, we ought to be intentional to not just follow the course set by the world, or what is considered normal in broader evangelicalism, but align ourselves with God's Word in every area of our lives, including this area of finding a spouse.

Welcome to Season 2 of the Reformed Faith and Family Podcast! In Season 1, we laid a foundation for what Reformed theology is, and the impact it has on the home. Our mission at Reformed Faith and Family is to equip Christian households to disciple their children and leave a legacy of faith for generations to come.

In Season 2, we are going to discuss many practical areas of life where we found early in our marriage that we were not living consistently according to Scripture. After becoming Reformed, we became increasingly aware that we, like many other Christians, had generally accepted normal evangelical culture and had never really thought about what it would look like to think and live consistently with what we claim to believe. You may not land where we do concerning these matters, but our primary goal is to highlight those areas where Christians ought to think more intentionally.

We pray that you will join us for Season 2 of the Reformed Faith and Family Podcast, and that it is a blessing to your family as you seek to intentionally live out the Gospel in every aspect of your life.

During Season 1 of the Reformed Faith and Family Podcast, we have been leading up to this discussion topic. Leaving a legacy both biologically and spiritually is how we build the Kingdom of God on this earth. The evangelical church has been blinded by a pessimistic eschatology inundated by the humanist philosophies of our culture. But the Bible has given us this vision of the victorious King now reigning, and the future Kingdom coming. God is working through His people as He always has to accomplish His wonderful works and to bring Himself glory. Join in this discussion as Caleb and Lindsey talk about what it means to grasp the vision, the joy, and the hope that is leaving a faithful legacy.

Christian leaders often speak against abortion, but rarely preach on the biblical mandate to Christian families to "multiply." Why is fertility such a taboo subject in the church? Join Caleb and Lindsey in the first of a two part series exploring how Christians ought to think very intentionally and biblically about their fertility.
