The Brooks Podcast

We discuss the relationship between the Christian and the local church. Many of us neglect the importance of the local church in our walk with Christ. Why is it so important for me to go to church? Is it important that I'm involved? Can I do ministry outside of the church?

We are joined by Logan Kane in this episode to discuss biblical theology.

What is biblical theology? How is biblical theology different from systematic theology? How do you do good biblical theology? Why is biblical theology important?

We'll try to answer all of those questions and have some fun on this episode of the podcast. We just got back from a 9Marks conference, and we'll discuss points that were made by such speakers as Ligon Duncan, Owen Strachan, and Jonathan Leeman.

Episode 5 - Poverty has become a great issue in the United States and even more across the globe. What is the responsibility of the church in addressing this issue? Should Christians give their money to the poor? What does the Bible say about giving to the homeless? We look to God for answers to these questions. Stream this episode to go with us through the Bible and see what God has had to say on this issue.

Episode 4 - In this episode, we are joined by Logan Kane, a seminarian who is currently an intern at Redemption Hill Church in Des Moines, IA.

We answer the question "Is it God's will for people to be sick?"

Short answer: God does sometimes will sickness for his elect, but never eternally. Even sickness is used for our good and God's glory. But that doesn't necessarily mean he delights in it.

Listen in to this conversation with Brooks Szewczyk and Logan Kane.
