New episode! Author and Pastor @RyanBurtonKing joins Austin to talk about his new book, Every Man’s Conscience, which explores the contributions of 17th Century Baptists to political theology. That might sound academic, but we have a lot to learn about honoring the conscience of our neighbors and Ryan has much help to offer. As counter-intuitive as it might seem to us, liberty of conscience is a good thing for our churches, our evangelism, and our neighbors.

Rev. Dr. Arthur Price, Jr. graciously hosted us at his home church: 16th St Baptist, which was home to a terrible bombing in 1963, which claimed the lives of four little girls. Though 16th St Baptist is a national historic landmark, Dr. Price is clear that his church is not a museum – it is a living, thriving outpost of gospel ministry. We hope you are encouraged by Dr. Price’s testimony: uwepray.org/podcast/6th-st…

New episode! @natejbrooks, professor at the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary joins Austin today to talk about a few important doctrines of the Christian faith. The first is the sufficiency of Scripture and the second is God’s common grace. How are we to think about the Bible? What about other resources like books by non-Christians? Dr. Brooks gives us a helpful framework that prioritizes Scripture and honors God’s common grace to us through other means. We hope this episode encourages you to read your Bible!
