Spiritual disciplines are a big deal in our modern church context. Where did they come from? Are they biblical? How is it that we are sustained and grown in the Christian life? Jon and Justin consider all these things.

by Justin Perdue | Hi, this is Justin. Today I am answering a question from Brandon. He asks, “What is biblical repentance?” The word for repentance in the New Testament, metanoia, literally means a change of mind, and so we might ask, well, a change of mind about what?

If you listen to many in the church, our Christian lives should be characterized by happiness, excitement, and by overcoming difficulty. But, this life is often characterized by pain, toil, and suffering. What do we do with that? And what is it that we’re called to in the church?

Theocast | Why is it that Jesus died on a cross–and not some other way? Does it matter? (Hint: It does.) Jon and Justin answer this question using all of Scripture from a redemptive-historical, covenantal perspective.

Theocast | Jon and Justin answer a question that we get all the time: “When you say ‘reformed’ theology, what do you mean?” We offer our own “five points” on the subject.

Hey everybody, this is Jimmy Buehler. On today’s episode of ask Theocast, I’m going to seek to answer a question from James, who asks this: “What is the meaning of 1 John 5:16-17 and the sin that leads to death?” It’s a good question.

Jon and Justin have a conversation about our weakness, sex, and the gospel. (Parents: There is nothing graphic, but please be aware.) Our culture tells us all kinds of things about sex. The church hasn't always helped. What has God said in his Word?

In this Theocast episode, Jon and Justin answer a listener question. Should we be afraid of the judgment seat of Christ? Should we fear that all of our good works will be burned up? We survey the passages in the New Testament that speak to these things.
