The Time & Place

We have no idea what is happening, this is the election that's never ending. Regardless, we have to have a gameplan going forward. The church has been far too comfortable for far to long just getting by, and the current state of America is not going to allow that anymore. In this episode we try to lay out a game plan for the future, an actual goal oriented, Christ focused, gospel minded path for the future.  And also discuss christmas movies briefly cause we're feeling the holiday spirit. 

Christianity and horror seem like two things that couldn't be further apart. But in a worldview that takes the spiritual wickedness of existence as a very real thing, how could horror not bleed into Christianity? On this episode, we're joined by Vaporwave musician/visual artist Vacation Bible School to look at Hell Houses, Chick Tracts, Rapture Movies, and other horror and horror adjacent elements of Christian culture, as well as some elements of Christianity that have blead into horror fiction. We also get a surprisingly deep and philosophical explination of Vapor Wave as a genre.  Vacation Bible School can be found on Instagram @churchwave_vbs, on Facebook as CHuRCHWaVe, and Youtube as Vacation Bible School. His latest album, Satanic Panic 3: Hell House is available on youtube and on Bandcamp at vacationbibleschool.bandcamp.com

Warning: This episode does touch on darker subject matter such as sexual violence and abortion, so listeners with children are cautioned. 

Magic and mysticism has gone mainstream. Crystal kits can be find in most discout department stores and booksellers have a wide selection of divination decks to help you decide your next move. But how should the Chrisitian view these things? Is there anything to any of it, or is it all just superstition? We sit down with Luke Bonecutter, professional spiritual consultant and diviner to discuss what it is he believes, does, and how it relates and comes into conflict with the truth of the Bible. 

Automation has crept into every part of our lives, and AI is looming right around the corner. How should we see this encroachment of technology, and what ramifications will it have on our sex lives? Plus, the debates as entertainment and questions of canon.

We had the honor of sitting down with Pastor Doug Wilson this week to discuss his latest novel, Ride Sally, Ride (Sex Rules). Pastor Wilson is the author of  several books on everything from raising boys to the art of writing, Senior Fellow of Philosophy at New St. Andrews College as well as founder of The Logos School, and pastor of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. We discuss the plot, the worldview that's turning it from fiction to reality, and how to keep our own little guys from falling into the trap of a junk drawer worldview.  Pastor Wilson is on instagram @douglas_james_wilson. To order a copy of the book for yourself, or to see the many other books available from his publishing house, Canon Press, visit www.canonpress.com.

With all of the craziness of our current age, the how and when to reopen public schools is a heavy source of argument. Some families have decided rather than add this risk to all the others their kid will encouter at school, they'll educate themselves. But how? Join us today as we discuss the home school option and why it's time to start taking it seriously?

False prophets and wolves in sheeps clothing.  Maybe the most feared men in religion today.  Some people have made it their personal mission to make sure they're are marked and avoided. But when does caution become heresy hunting? What's worth dividing and fighting over? And how does Jesus feel about divisions in the first place? All of that, and a big announcement about the upcoming Timestamp Zine. This is The Time. This is The Place. 

Welcome back to The Time & Place! It's been a little while since the last time we checked in. We're excitted to not only fill you in on where we've been, but also on what we have planned for the future. We also get into a very unexpected and serious talks about the ramifications of social media and how to handle the fatigue.

Toxic Masculinity is part of the power structure of oppression according to our cultural revolutionaries. But what is toxic masculinity? Does it exist? And if so, how do we correct it? 

Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In God we trust. A Christian nation. What does any of that mean? What part does patriotism have in the christian life? Does it at all? Plus, stop thinking the Supreme Court is the supreme authority.
