    Political Visions | FTPB Ep. 6
    Dec 1 2020
    We desire to have a clear vision of the world, yet we inevitably see things through one or more worldviews. The result being that what we may think is a clear vision of how the world works is actually an illusion. These illusions are often manifested in secular ideologies. Join us as we look at the ideologies of liberalism, conservatism and socialism to see how they are inherently idolatrous and how a biblical worldview helps us to transcend ideologies and remain anchored in Christ.

    Before You Vote | From the Pastor's Bookshelf Ep. 5
    Nov 6 2020
    From the Pastor's Bookshelf is about shaping our imaginations through good books. It's more than just a review or summary of any given book, but a chance to dive into the concepts and ideas that are unearthed in the book. We use these concepts as a launchpad for talking about faith and culture, and in this case...politics. In this special episode we'll be talking about "Before You Vote: Seven Questions Every Christian Should Ask" By David Platt (Radical, Counter Culture). The realm of politics presents the Christian with a unique dilemma. On the one hand public policy matters and if we are to effectuate God’s desire to do justice some level of engagement in the political sphere is necessary. While on the other hand, politics is a messy business (American founding father John Adams called it a “silly and wicked game”). So how can the Follower of Jesus engage in the political sphere without being tainted by it. We want to help you find a way to engage in politics in a thoughtful, caring and Christ-like way. So that, in the end, we can feel confident that we doing our duty in a way that honors Jesus. For more resources – https://radiantofcamas.org Follow us on Instagram and Facebook @radiantofcamas.

  • The Hole in our Holiness | From the Pastors Bookshelf Ep. 4

    The Hole in our Holiness | From the Pastors Bookshelf Ep. 4
    May 9 2020
    How is holiness like a doughnut? It's not because it's delicious, but because so often we don't realize the hole in the middle. When we think of holiness, what comes to mind? The pious Pharisee on the street corner? A monk in a monastery? Holiness isn't just something extra for "those people" but the key aspect of what it means to be a follower of Christ. In episode 4 of the podcast we're covering the book, "The Hole in our Holiness" by Kevin DeYoung. We're taking a transparent look at what so often seems to be missing in our discipleship.
