Reformation History 2: The Franciscan Reformation: Why the Protestant Reformation Began in 1209
In this episode, we look at a reform movement within the Roman Catholic Church that tried to bring about reform. Francis of Assisi and his friars aimed to be “new fools for Christ” by following the spirituality they found in Scripture rather than those models offered by church tradition. One group — the Franciscan Spirituals — increasingly favored the Bible over and against the papacy, eventually influencing John Wycliffe.

Survey Church History Episode 14: Capacity for Mystery: The Theology of John Calvin
For many, John Calvin’s name causes feelings of trepidation. His hard predestinarianism rubs many the wrong way. This episode attempts to orient listeners to Calvin’s theological methodology before exploring his understanding of salvation. What emerges is Calvin’s willingness to say what Scripture says, and stay silent where Scripture is silent. This goes a long way in explaining his theological emphases and flavor.

Survey Church History Episode 6: God Crowns His Own Works: Augustine Against Pelagius
Augustine was quite possibly the greatest thinker in the early Christian church, and maybe the best theologian history has ever known. This lesson examines the main controversy of his career. Augustine’s debates with the Pelagians helped him articulate his views on original sin, grace, predestination, free will, and the sacraments. While not adopting his schema wholesale, Protestants have long found him a friend and ally.
