Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss Christ Our Advocate Church in Wheaton, IL, the contents of some of their sermons, and a page on their website detailing their "posture toward the LGBTQ+ community." Can a faithful ACNA church say these things?
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss even further developments in the ACNA before talking about the province's governance structure, and whether or not bishops and their power are the source of the church's problems.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss new revelations related to the Wood presentment, talk about the collegiality (or lack thereof) in ACNA, and consider, again, where the province goes from here.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss the presentment of Archbishop Wood, the process by which justice is sought in the province, and whether the ACNA's systems and leadership can be trusted.
Jady and Nick welcome Bishop Paul Donison to discuss the recent GAFCON communique: how it came it about, what it means, and some of the challenges facing the Anglican Communion going forward.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss artificial intelligence. Is it a threat to God's creation? Is it a tool to be used like any other? How should Christians approach this new technology?
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss the appointment of the new Archbishop of Canterbury, talk about where the ACNA fits within the distinctions of the broader Communion, and consider whether global orthodox Anglicanism is on solid ground.
Matt, Jady, and Nick talk to Jeff Walton of the Institute on Religion and Democracy in the wake of his article on the Bp. Jones/JAFC situation.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss the feud between Bishop Derek Jones and the ACNA, the attempted withdrawal of the JAFC, and whether the center of the Province can hold.
Matt, Jady, and Nick dip into the mailbag, answering questions about the Charlie Kirk assassination, a preacher's obligation (or not) to engage current socio-political events, and what questions a vestry should ask a candidate for pastoral ministry.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss whether or not pastors should "happily release" people to other churches, good and bad reasons to leave a parish, and defending strongly held pastoral and denominational convictions.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss John Mark Comer, his popular book, and his new/old definition of following Jesus...with a long (and vigorous!) digression about kenosis.
Matt, Jady, and Nick talk about Eastern Orthodoxy. They discuss the East's view of Scripture and tradition, theosis, the use of icons, models of the atonement, and the failure of Orthodox/Protestant dialogue.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss CNN's recent interview with Doug Wilson and the public reaction, before focusing on his comments on voting rights and American slavery.
Jady and Nick talk to Miles Smith about what Christian Nationalism means, what people are afraid of when they hear those words, and what kind of relationship our founders foresaw for America and religion.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss Dr. Matthew Barrett's joining the ACNA, talk about the ongoing drama attending the trial of one bishop, and consider another bishop's clash with a local vestry.
Jady and Nick talk to Dr. Tom Price (of Gordon Conwell and the Theology Pugcast) about his journey to Anglicanism, discuss its theological distinctives, and hear how the "pugs" got together.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss the recent growth of the ACNA and talk about what kind of province it could become. Finally, they share a brief thought about the passing of John MacArthur and the effect of his ministry.
Matt, Jady, and Nick discuss the continued fallout from Austin Becton's Facebook post about Pride Month, Bp. Todd Hunter's disciplinary action, and how presbyters and bishops properly relate.
