CrossPolitic Show

As rebels take key territories in Syria, the Assad regime faces collapse, and the country reaches a critical turning point. What does this mean for Christians caught in the crossfire? Will a rebel victory bring peace, or plunge Syria into deeper chaos? Join us as we unpack the conflict’s complexities, the role of international powers, and what’s next for a fractured nation.

In this episode of CrossPolitic, author Ben Zornes joins us to talk about his book Tulips on Fire, where he challenges the cold, lifeless view of Calvinism. Instead, he shows how the doctrines of TULIP should ignite a passionate pursuit of holiness. From the Synod of Dort to the fiery piety of the Dutch Reformation, Zornes dives into how figures like Wilhelmus á Brakel and Gisbertus Voetius lit a fire for godliness that still speaks to us today. If you think Calvinism is just dry theology, think again—this conversation will reignite your faith!

Joy to the world—or at least, joy in the midst of it! Whether it’s the weight of trials or the responsibilities that come with His gifts, we talk about taking it all with gratitude and faith.

And we remind ourselves why Christmas is the season of hope, even when the world feels heavy. Tune in for the laughs, the encouragement, and the call to live boldly, no matter the season!
