In this episode, Nate Shannon and Dan Schrock explore the themes of certainty and assurance in faith as articulated by Hermann Bavinck in his book 'The Certainty of Faith.' Dan has recently translated and edited this work which will be available through our very own Westminster Seminary Press. Grab yourself a copy here.

They discuss the historical context of Bavinck's writing, the impact of the Enlightenment and modernity on theological thought, and the pastoral relevance of Bavinck's insights for contemporary Christians facing uncertainty. The dialogue emphasizes the importance of grounding assurance in the authority of Scripture and the objective truth of faith, rather than subjective experiences.
