The feeling among many is that by settling the debate within the CRCNA through synod, conservatives have effectively silenced dissent by circumventing honest deliberation. So in this week's episode, we try to tackle this argument head on in order to help everyone think through what James means - and doesn't mean - when he says that godly wisdom is "open to reason" (James 3:17).  Nicholas Wolterstorff's a...2025-02-2148 minTheologie aan de grachtTheologie aan de gracht#11 - Denken over de zin van dagelijks werk als brug tussen christenen en andersgelovigen met Jan van der StoepDe verbinding tussen ons geloof en ons dagelijks werk vinden we vandaag de dag niet gemakkelijk te leggen. Er is daarom al veel over geschreven. Christelijk filosoof Jan van der Stoep, hoogleraar aan de TUU en aan Wageningen University, denkt ook na over deze vraag. Voor hem is filosofie een brug tussen geloof en ongeloof, tussen kerk en wereld. Juist het doordenken van deze vraag vanuit de filosofie kan ons verder helpen. Vragen naar de zin van werk leven in de hele breedte van de samenleving. Het is de uitdaging om als christelijk denker daarbij de aansluiting te zoeken. 2025-01-2950 minThe Living Room DiscipleThe Living Room Disciple81.

Because of its rich theology of culture, neo-Calvinism is often assumed to be a resource for Christianity outside of the church. Less well known is the liturgical tradition produced by Bavinck and Kuyper, which is distinctly neo-Calvinistic in its attempts to progress ancient liturgical practices into the modern age.

In this episode, Kevin Miller explores that question with Emily H.

We should be humbled into quietness, and not be quick to speak when we encounter suffering.” When McGowin’s mother-in-law died at 46 years-old, people tried to offer rational responses, which wasn’t helpful.

In some classical Christian thought, the king was tasked with cultivating virtue, including love of God. Joel and Dave discuss contemporary Christian voices who challenge this.  For liberal thinkers like Nicholas Wolterstorff, Christians cannot seek to define the common good for society in this way; doing so would exclude or coerce non-Christians. In Wolterstorff’s terms, Christians must support the ‘mechanical state’, a neutral body-protecting ‘the excellence of freedom’. Joel and Dave raise their problems with this view, and challenge the argument that pluralism a...2019-11-0636 minFirst Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi Evening ServiceFirst Presbyterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi Evening ServiceSinging of SadnessThat’s the beginning of the book, Lament for a Son, written by Nicholas Wolterstorff who was a former philosophy professor at Yale University.

Il y a bien quelques prophètes qui prétendent parler de la part de Dieu. Ils commencent leurs interventions par : « Ainsi parle l’Eternel ».
