Worldview Legacy | The Think Institute

A very practical question we must ask is, “How can I stay productive, and truly maximize my productivity, according to biblical principles, during this time of crisis? To help me answer this question, my guest is Reverend Doctor Brandon D. Crowe. Rev. Dr. Crowe is a busy man! He’s the head of the Department of New Testament at Westminster Seminary, the book review editor for two theological journals, a mentor to PhD students, and an ordained teaching elder at his church—not to mention a husband to Cheryl and father of four children. If you want to know about how to maximize your productivity from a biblical perspective, there’s no one better to learn from. Today we are going to talk about his new book from Lexham Press, called Every Day Matters: A Biblical Approach to Productivity.  Get the full show notes at https://thethink.institute.

With your local church closed for the foreseeable future, parents are taking on the awesome responsibility of running mini worship services and "Sunday schools" with their families in their front rooms, family rooms and finished basements. While many churches are stepping up to provide resources and video content, this is the time for dads and moms to take ownership of keeping households connected to God and walking with Christ.

Watch the debate tonight, Tuesday, March 10, 2020, on the Friendly Neighborhood Atheist page! I’m preparing for an online (Facebook) debate tomorrow with Brandon, the self-styled “Friendly Neighborhood Atheist,” on the question, “Can You Be Good Without God?” In my prep, I searched through the archives of my pastoral blog for content I had already created on the subject, and I found an article from 2016 that remains very relevant to the question. I’m posting that article below. If you follow along while you listen, you’ll see that when I recorded it for the Think Podcast, I made a few ad hoc edits as I spoke. The big idea is basically this: Anyone can “do good,” but true goodness needs Jesus. So, can you be good without God? The answer is no. Here we go.
