The Doxology Podcast: Recent Episodes
Doxology
This a podcast dedicated to journeying together on the road that is the Christian faith. Join us as we discuss and investigate theology and the Christian life, striving for unity amongst our diversity as members of Christ's Church.
The guys are here today to share an update about the podcast's future. After nearly four years of uploading content week in and week out, the guys are taking a much needed respite. The podcast is not over, however. As Ross always said, "we were on a break." Until then... trust God, cast lots. Be nice and be nicene. Praise God from whom all blessings flow.

What is the connection between Moses on Mt. Sinai and the Transfiguration of our Lord on the unnamed mountain in the Gospels? What about Elijah on Sinai in 1 Kings? On this reuploaded episode, the guys discuss a few important biblical texts that highlight the similarities between the giving of the Law and the Transfiguration of Jesus. Was time travel involved? Maybe...

This week we are tackling a topic that was submitted by a kind listener named Elliot.
The original message: “As a Roman Catholic I really appreciate good Protestant perspectives on the issues, so again, thank you for doing what you guys do. To the point, since we’re out of heresy month, you guys should do an episode on ethical veganism/vegetarianism and how people justify such a system of ethics through the Bible. Ethics of Risk, the idea of 'causing pain,' etc. would be super interesting to discuss I think.”
We discuss what the Bible has to say about food laws, diets, and treatment of the created order.

We would first like to thank everyone for making Heresy Month 2023 a stellar month (huge shoutout to Trevin Wax!). We are back with another fresh, though less spooky, episode in which we discuss dreams. What are they? Where do they come from? How do dreams relate to theology?

A former missionary to Romania, Trevin is a regular columnist at The Gospel Coalition, has served as general editor for The Gospel Project, and has taught courses on mission and ministry at Wheaton College.

This is the final spooky episode of Heresy Month 2023. Next week we will have a far less spooky episode (hint, hint).
Until then, the guys are discussing more heresy. Oneness Pentecostalism (also known as Apostolic, Jesus' Name Pentecostalism, or the Jesus Only movement) is a non-trinitarian religious movement within the Protestantism, particularly within Pentecostalism.

Shout out to Nick on Twitter for recommending this week's episode!
This week, the guys dive head first into a heresy that you may not even realize is an actual heresy. Iconoclasm, as a heresy, is the belief that icons (and other religious symbols) are idols and they should all be destroyed. Yes, this is a condemned heresy. So, what is the deal? Tune in as the guys discuss the history of icons, iconoclasm, and how it relates to different denominations today.

We are back with yet another strange and obscure theological heresy. This time, we are taking a look at the pneumatomachi, a sect that denied the divinity of the Holy Spirit. What is the deal with this fourth-century sect? How was it possible for this group to affirm the Nicene Creed? What parallels can we find in our own age? Things are about to get really spooky.

Welcome back to our fourth annual Heresy Month. What could be scarier than bad theology? Nothing. On the first Heresy Month 2023 episode, the guys approach the topic of heresy from a different perspective. Instead of talking about heresy outright, they discuss how heresies can manifest themselves in semi, pseudo, and neo ways. Jens was even bold enough to claim that Semi-Pelagian theology crept its way into Charles Finney, resulting in the state of the American church today.

This week the guys tackle another listener recommendation (thanks Jeremy!). Back in February, Jeremy requested that they discuss the nature of the "sin unto death" as found in 1 John. What is it? Who can commit it? Is it spiritual or physical death? Both? This is one of the most difficult passages in all of the New Testament to interpret.

The guys chat with Gavin Ortlund about his recent work on Anselm: "Anselm's Pursuit of Joy." They discuss Anselm's Ontological Argument, his high view of friendship, and more.
Jens and Lukas recently had the privilege of sitting down with Kyle Meyaard-Schaap, the author of a recently published book entitled, "Following Jesus in a Warming World: A Christian Call to Climate Action."
Kyle was previously the vice president of the Evangelical Environmental Network. Additionally, he was the national organizer and spokesperson for Young Evangelicals for Climate Action, and he has been featured in news outlets such as CNN, PBS, NPR, NBC News, and U.S. News & World Report. He lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan, with his wife and two children.
On this episode, they discuss climate change from a Christian perspective, what meaningful steps can be taken to combat climate change, and how we ought to live with an "empathetic imagination" when it comes to issues surrounding our warming world.

A listener (thanks Hayden!) recently suggested that we revisit our list of our most influential theologians. A lot can change in 3+ years. In our minds, nobody should have an identical list in a span that long. The 10 individuals (5 for each of us) on this list are currently shaping our minds, hearts, and actions. Who would make your top 5?

This week the guys tackle another supernatural topic: The Witch of Endor. This strange Bible passage contains the story about Saul seeking wisdom from Samuel's spirit. He goes to a medium at Endor to do so. What's the deal with this peculiar account? Can this sort of thing still be replicated today? If so, should it be? There are no wizards named Harry in this far out tale.

This week the guys discuss a recent twitter thread about Roman Catholicism, justification, and intellectual ascent.

Recently, Jens was reading Luke's Gospel. He happened upon a familiar story about a tax collector named Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10). However, something stood out this time: who is the short person in the story, Jesus or Zacchaeus? It actually is not very clear. Thus, an episode topic was born.

What makes worship music "good?" Jens and Lukas have a conversation about what goes into worship music and how we can think theologically about the musical parts of our worship services. In the end, are we just offering strange fire to a reckless God, or are we truly worshipping our risen Savior?

Many moons ago, Lukas proposed that we talk about whether or not denominations are good. The time has finally come for us to give the question some consideration. Is there still benefit to denominational affiliation for individuals and churches, or is it time to move on to a post-denominational faith?

Jens and Lukas are busy. They hate being unable to record fresh episodes. Have no fear, though. They will be back soon. For now, they throw it back to "Jonah January." On this first of four episodes, they explore Jonah's flight from the presence of the Lord. The book of Jonah is more than a story (a parable?) about a man being swallowed by a big fish. It is about God's mercy and compassion on all people. The journey starts here.

Every year we rightfully celebrate Christ's death and resurrection, but what took place between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday? What is the purpose and significance of Holy Saturday? What do we mean when we say that Christ Descended into Hell? This doctrine has experienced something of a renaissance in recent years. Many articles, books, and blogs have been written critiquing and defending it. So, is it biblical? Should we confess it with the Creed? Join us as we plumb the very depths of hell to find out.

In a world obsessed with youth, fitness, health, and "wellness," what does it look like for Christians to engage with sickness and disease generally, and disabilities specifically speaking? Whether we ourselves experience these things or not, it is nearly certain that we know someone who does. As fellow image bearers, we ought to be slow to speak and quick to listen to our brothers and sisters who possess gifts that differ from our own. A disability does not render one less whole or complete. How we think and talk about this matters. Join the conversation now.

Genesis is all about "beginnings." So why won't the early characters die already? Mystery month continues as the guys explore people of significant old age in Genesis. How did they live to be 900 years old? Why did they live so long? Why do we no longer live to be that old? What is the deal with the waters above the firmament?

We are beginning another theme month on the Doxology Podcast. "Mystery Month" kicks off with an exploration of a text that many believe should not be included within the canon. Why is it in John 8? Why do some manuscripts place it at the end of Luke? We talk about Textual Criticism in general, while also briefly discussing the details of the story of the woman caught in adultery.

"Oh my God," someone cries out on the school playground. "Don't say that, you have to say, 'oh my gosh' instead." Is this what it means to take the name of the Lord in vain? Does it mean more? Jens and Lukas explore the third commandment to understand what is truly at stake here.

Machen and Fosdick had quite a bit to say about their modern theological world. Where do their worlds intersect with modern thought? What can we learn from these sermons? It cantankerousness really worse than heterodoxy?

Today's episode was recommended by a listener named Hayden. After hearing our episode on the Nephilim, Hayden reached out asking if we had ever heard about a peculiar passage of 2 Samuel that seems to suggest someone other than David killed Goliath. We were both stumped. We had never recalled seeing this passage. Thus, a new episode was born. Thanks, Hayden.

The guys were yet again unable to get a fresh episode recorded (we promise to have something new for you next week).
In the meantime, enjoy this episode from two years ago about Apostasy and the idea of falling away. This was the first time that the guys had a disagreement "on air." So what do you think, can you fall away?
The guys were unable to record a new episode this week. They are throwing it back to when they discussed Christ's Descent to the Dead. This is an appropriate re-upload, given that we just celebrated Holy Week. Enjoy.
On this gigantic-sized episode (it is actually pretty normal-sized), the guys chat about the Nephilim. Who were they? What were they? Can we know for certain one way or another? Don't miss this newest iteration of the "weird Bible passages" segment.

On today's episode the guys discuss an article Lukas read in school. It was an excerpt from Karl Barth's Dogmatics. In this piece he discusses the Judge that was judged in our place. To quote Barth: "But now we have to face the question in all seriousness: Why did He come amongst us, why did He enter our situation, as our brother? What is it that takes place when the Son of God becomes flesh of our flesh?"

Welcome back to another installment of Theology 101. Class is now in session. You will recall from our last session together in September that we discussed revelation, both general and special. Today's topic naturally follows that discussion. What is the Bible exactly? What do we mean when we say the Bible is God's word? What does the Bible say about itself? What about the manuscripts? We explore these questions today.

On the final Tuesday episode of Martyr May, the guys take a look at martyrs and martyrdom in the modern age. How does it differ from other eras? What does it look like today? How should we respond to persecution of the church? Tune in to join the discussion.
On this episode, Lukas shares the story from 2015 of the 21 Coptic Martyrs who were killed by ISIS for their faith in Christ.
The Protestant Reformation is a unique time in church history. The theological landscape was changing dramatically all over Europe. An often neglected topic of this era is martyrdom. Why? Well, perhaps it is because Protestants were killing Catholics, Catholics were killing Protestants, and Protestant were killing other Protestants. It wasn't the pagan empire killing Christians. This was different. What do we make of this dark blemish in church history? Tune in to learn more.

Life gets busy. Things happen. Jens and Lukas were unable to record this week. Luckily they have this little gem that was recorded on Sunday, February 16th. For those following along, we had not even launched this podcast at that point. This episode on holiness was intended to be the first episode in a mini series on sanctification. We do not remember why we shelved the series, but this episode is the only one that we have never released. Consider this "vintage" Doxology Podcast. This is a sneak peak into the early days of our little venture. So kick back, relax, and enjoy as the guys discuss what it means to strive for holiness.

"This goose is cooked!" Where does this phrase come from? It is attributed to the story of Jan Hus (Hus is Czech for goose). Jan Hus was a fascinating figure who was in many ways a forerunner to the Reformers we are familiar with. Living over a century before the Reformation began, Hus worked for reform in the Czech Church to push back against abuses of power and neglect of doctrine. Ultimately, he was martyred and burned at the stake for his witness to the faith of Scripture.

Most people are familiar with the various atrocities committed by early European settlers in the New World against the indigenous peoples living there. Often these sad events were perpetrated by, or at least allowed by, Christians and people representing the church. Bartolomé de Las Casas represents a refreshing departure from this historical trend. De Las Casas was a friar who spent his life fighting the injustices he saw as incompatible with the Christian faith he so ardently preached.

On this week's episode, your boys Lukas and Jens set out on a three week journey to discuss the Evangelical Baptist Catholicity Manifesto (that was a mouthful). This is a document created by the Center for Baptist Renewal. They state on their website: "The Center for Baptist Renewal is a group of conservative, evangelical Baptists committed to a retrieval of the Great Tradition of the historic church for the renewal of Baptist faith and practice." This is something that Lukas and Jens find incredibly fascinating, so they spend some time discussing the 11 points the Manifesto asserts. As you know, Lukas is Anglican and Jens is a Reformed Baptist, but that does not keep them from devoting three weeks to seek Christian unity across ecclesial and denominational lines.

There is much more that can be said on this issue, and the guys will likely tackle some more of it in the future, but Jens thought it was worth sharing this with you today.

Words cannot adequately explain our feelings today as we look out into a hurting world. Let us be slow to speak. Let us be quick to listen. Let us pray and call out to God for mercy, grace, and healing.
This is our very first installment in the new Christians of History series. "You have made us for yourself, O Lord, and our heart is restless until it finds rest in you." Tune in to hear the story of a restless wanderer, a man far from God, a slave to sin, who found rest for his weary soul in Christ.

This is no ordinary episode. It is special. Starting next Friday (May 29, 2020) we will be releasing two episodes a week. We will still have our normal Tuesday episode each week, but Fridays will be dedicated to a new segment called "Christians of History." Every Friday we will explore one Christian from church history. We will explore their conversion, life experiences, fun facts, theological significance, and more. If you recall, we have discussed Jens's philosophy on ministry and life: Theology, Liturgy, Biography. “Christians of History” falls under the umbrella of biography. We can learn a lot from those whose shoulders we stand on. We are not as far removed from them as we think we are. We will see these saints in glory one day. Join us as we explore these well-known, and lesser known, believers from history.

In what can only be described as an episode of biblical proportions, Jens explains the Reformed “doctrines of grace” (better known by the acronym TULIP). What are these doctrines and what do they mean for salvation? Lukas responds by explaining why Jens is wrong. Brotherly discourse ensues for far longer than planned. You might want to break this one up and listen in sections, folks.

What makes worship music good? Jens and Lukas have a conversation about what goes into worship music and how we can think theologically about the musical parts of our worship services.
