Justin and Josh discuss John Owen's book The Mortification of Sin, more plainly put, the putting to death of sin. They discuss the various aspects within salvation (the Russian doll of salvation, if you will) and the duality that exists between free will and complete sovereignty.

Justin and Josh wrap up their discussion about assurance. Justin talks about one of the biggest issues the modern church is facing when it comes to assurance. They also share the relationship between works and assurance; a good way to examine your heart is to see if you are walking in holiness! 

Justin and Josh discuss assurance and try to answer the age old question: how do I know if I'm saved? That tough question is something that most young believers wrestle with. They discuss the difference between knowing God and knowing that you know God. Justin also shares a little bit about his own struggles with assurance. 

Joel Beeke: "Knowing and Growing in Assurance of Faith"

Just Thinking: "Assurance of Salvation"

John MacArthur: "Why Christians Lack Assurance"

Justin and Josh attempt to answer the question: "What is a gospel issue?" They discuss the three concentric circles of dogma, doctrine, and opinion, and how different topics and issues fit into those categories. 

Justin and Josh discuss the biblical parameters for reconciliation. Justin explains that the only way we can have horizontal reconciliation with other people is if we first have vertical reconciliation with God.

Justin, Josh and Hayley take one last dive into the waters of Critical Race Theory. They touch on the importance of epistemology and how crucial the understanding of knowledge is to this conversation. Justin also talks about systems of authority and how your worldview impacts literally everything about how you act and view life.

Justin continues walking Josh and Hayley through the implications and the dangers of Critical Race Theory. We take time to define and connect terms like "dominant culture," "oppression," "the masters tools," "standpoint epistemology," and what they all mean in the context of this conversation.
