Dangers of “Gospel-Centered Preaching”

Kristin Jukes Has a Book Recommendation:

“In her latest book, You Who, Rachel Jankovic reminds Christian women that our identity is not wrapped up in this You Who?: Why You Matter and How to Deal with It by [Jankovic, Rachel] world or following our hearts/feelings but is found in Christ. With all of the humanistic philosophy being sold as Christian content to women, this book is refreshing and convicting. Throughout the book, Mrs. Jankovic reminds us that our sole purpose on earth is to give God glory, not ourselves. I highly recommend this book for women and teenagers. Ladies, let us live lives of faithfulness to our Lord and scrutinize all we consume in light of Scripture.”

Slavery Reparations:

This podcast was really interesting.

“As the ‘social gospel’ continues to gain traction within contemporary American evangelicalism, increasing numbers of professing Christians are aligning themselves with the idea that black Americans are owed reparations for slavery. But is such an idea biblical? In this expanded episode of the Just Thinking broadcast, Darrell and Virgil go in-depth to discuss the divisive issue of reparations from both a personal and theological perspective. Listen carefully as what you hear may surprise you.”

Look Carefully, Then Shoot:

Heresy hunters are so suspicious of heresy that often they find heresy where it is not.

The Disappeared Riemenschneider Podcast

By Jacob Reaume | November 12, 2024

A few weeks ago, a podcast featuring Tobias Riemenschneider critiquing Joel Webbon disappeared almost as soon as it appeared. Let me explain the context a little, at the very real risk of your eyes disinterestedly glazing over. If you do lose focus and nod off, just skip to the next paragraph where I rise aboveRead more
Jumbled Ramblings on Hitler, Churchill, WWII, and Hatred

By Jacob Reaume | September 18, 2024

About two weeks ago, Tucker Carlson released an interview with Darryl Cooper, questioning, among other things, the consensus narrative surrounding WWII and Winston Churchill. I listened with curiosity, albeit admittedly somewhat distractedly: it was the podcast de jour during my morning 6 o’clock workout on leg day. But I did listen. I left the podcastRead more
Replying to a Stupid Tweet: Pedobaptist Pea-Brainery and Credobaptist Christendom

By Jacob Reaume | August 23, 2024

Someone sent me a spicy take on Baptists and Christian Nationalists that recently appeared on social media. Apparently, it’s received not a small amount of attention, at least in our neck of the woods. Here’s the quip: “Post mill and Christendom will not work with Baptist ecclesiology. Because in their ecclesiology you cannot have ChristianityRead more
Against Equal Opportunity

By Jacob Reaume | August 1, 2024

INTRODUCTION Attempting to combat wokeness, conservatives have framed the conflict with the woke left as “equality of outcome” vs. “equality of opportunity.” Equality of outcome means that everyone deserves to live the same quality of life. Equality of opportunity means that everyone deserves the same opportunity. Conservatives allege that the woke left advocates for equalityRead more
Towards A Biblical View of Immigration

By Jacob Reaume | March 8, 2024

For the last few generations Canadians typically prided themselves in their tolerance towards immigrants. Now, record numbers of immigrants continue to enter Canada. People are noticing, and they are talking about immigration in a way I’ve never heard Canadians talk. That shouldn’t surprise us, due to the astounding rate at which foreigners are relocating toRead more
