What is natural law? Is it consistent with Reformed theology? How about the Two Kingdoms approach to the relationship between Christianity and culture? Is this a Lutheran position, or has it also been held by advocates of the Reformed tradition as well? On this edition of the White Horse Inn, Dr. David VanDrunen joins the panel for a discussion of his new book, Natural Law & The Two Kingdoms: A Study in the Development in Reformed Social Thought.

Christianity: A Faith Founded on Facts
How do you respond to people who believe that Christianity is based on myths and is not factually true? We asked pastors that question at a recent pastors convention, and their answers just might surprise you. Joining us in this special extended discussion is noted apologist Dr. John Warwick Montgomery.

Recovering Scripture
George Gallup has commented that Americans revere the Bible, but don’t read it. In fact, poll after poll, reveals an increasing trend toward biblical illiteracy, not only among those outside the church, but also among those who describe themselves as “born again,” or Evangelical. On this edition of the White Horse Inn the hosts discuss […]

The Book of Galatians, Part 1
What is the book of Galatians about, and what doctrines does it address? We recently put questions like these to students at an Evangelical Bible college, and their answers reveal once again that Christians themselves need to recover Scripture. On this edition of the program, the hosts interact with these on-the-street interviews and explain why […]

The Book of Galatians, Part 2
On this program the hosts explain why Paul’s letter to the Galatians is a good place to begin in order to understand the basic message of Scripture. In this letter Paul explains the difference between the covenant of grace promised to Abraham, and the national covenant made with the people of Israel at Mt. Sinai. […]

The Book of Galatians, Part 3
How does one qualify for God’s heavenly inheritance? Does it come by obedience to the law, or by trusting the promise? In their continuing survey of Paul’s letter to the Galatians, the hosts further outline the distinctions between the Abrahamic and Mosaic covenants, and point to Christ alone as the ground of our acceptance before […]

The Book of Galatians, Part 4
On this edition of the program the hosts discuss Paul’s allegory of two mountains, and two mothers in Galatians chapter 4. Why does the apostle argue that the present city of Jerusalem corresponds with Hagar, rather than Sarah? Why are the children of Mt. Sinai born in “slavery?” Though it may take a little work, […]

The Book of Galatians, Part 5
What does it mean to walk by the Spirit? How does our sanctification relate to our freedom in Christ and justification? The hosts discuss these issues and more as they conclude their five part series through Paul’s letter the to the Galatians.

Grounded in the Gospel
Throughout the history of the church, young believers and new converts to the faith went through a process called “catechism.” What are the roots of this ancient practice, and why has it fallen out of use in contemporary Christianity? On this edition of the program Michael Horton talks with J.I. Packer and Gary Parrett, authors […]

How Does God Reveal Himself?
Can we discover truth about God outside of the Bible, or is Scripture the only true source of heavenly knowledge? On this edition of the program the hosts will outline the distinction between general and special revelation. In the former, God reveals himself through creation, and in the latter he reveals himself in the pages […]

The Kingdom of God, Part 1
How does God’s Kingdom advance? Can we usher it in by our political or cultural endeavors? Will it come if enough people band together in pursuit of social justice? But as the hosts discuss on this edition of the program, the Kingdom of God is not something that we build or bring in by our […]

God’s Left Hand
Early voting has already begun here in Texas, where I live. On November 3, Americans will return to the ballot box for the midterm elections. For some of us, this is an energizing time. We love doing our part to participate in our democracy and choose our leaders.

Patriotism for the Life of the World
The second-century apologetic “Letter to Diognetus” declares, “What the soul is in the body, Christians are in the world. The soul is dispersed through all the members of the body, and Christians are scattered through all the cities of the world.

Reacting to Viral Dechurching & Exvangelical Stories
“Here’s what I love about Jesus. Jesus actually knows that the church is broken and imperfect and falls short. But the difference between us and Jesus is we see that and we use that as a justification to abandon the church. Jesus sees the church, as broken as she is, and on the way as […]
