Theology in Particular

In episode 61 of Theology In Particular, Pastor Chad Vegas joins us to discuss evangelism, missions, and why it is good for ministers to receive training in these areas.

In episode 60 of Theology In Particular,  Dr. Fred Malone joins us to talk about preaching and the courses he teaches to IRBS to help with the development of preachers. We hope that pastors, future pastors, and congregants alike are encouraged to highly value preaching as one of the ordinary means of grace that God has given to his church.

In Episode 59 of Theology In Particular, Dr. James Dolezal demonstrates the usefulness of philosophical theology by wrestling with the metaphysical problem of the one and the many. I would encourage the listener to persevere through this rather long and unusually technical interview. I do believe that the importance and usefulness of this philosophical conversation will become apparent by the end.

In Episode 58 of Theology In Particular, Dr. James Dolezal introduces us to philosophical theology. He makes a case for its usefulness, especially to pastors and theologians. This interview will require you to exert some mental energy. The payoff will be worth it.

In Episode 57, Pastor Ryan Davidson addressed the question of the usefulness of general revelation in pastoral counseling.

Episode 56 is an interview with Pastor Ryan Davidson on the topic of pastoral counseling in the history of the church. Understanding how pastors cared for the members of their congregations in other times, places, and cultures should help pastors refine their approach to ministry today.

Episode 55 is an interview with Pastor Ryan Davidson on the topic of pastoral counseling. Should pastors counsel? What warrant do we find for this in the scriptures? What is the relationship between counseling and preaching? In brief, it is argued that pastoral counseling ought to be viewed as a secondary aid to the ordinary means of grace.

In Episode 54 of Theology In Particular Dr. James Renihan and I return to a subject that we addressed briefly in the previous episode – the permanence of the Sabbath day. Is there a day that is to be kept holy by the New Covenant people of God? We believe the scriptures teach there is. It is the Lord’s Day, also known as the Christian Sabbath.

In Episode 53 of Theology In Particular we present a brief argument for the permanence of the Sabbath day and also address questions regarding the practice of Sabbath keeping under the New Covenant.

In Episode 52 of Theology In Particular Dr. James Renihan addresses a few common misconceptions in Baptist history and seeks to set the record straight.
