À propos de cet audio

From 1933 to 1944, FDR addressed the nation in a series of 30 radio conversations that would later be known as the “fireside chats.” These addresses not only served to inform the American public, but they also provided a sense of calm to a nation in turmoil. The goal of this podcast, like its namesake, is to both inform and comfort. In this podcast, we will proclaim the whole counsel of God, starting with the truth that we are sinners in need of a savior, and it is through Christ’s death, burial, and resurrection and faith therein that we are saved and reckoned as justified in the sight of a Holy God.

  • The Clarity of Scripture: God Speaks So We Can Hear
    Nov 2 2025

    The clarity of Scripture means that the Bible is written so people can truly understand it—but real understanding takes effort, humility, and the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Both the Westminster and London Baptist Confessions teach that while not every passage is equally easy, the truths needed for salvation are clear to anyone willing to seek God through ordinary means like reading, preaching, prayer, worship, and the sacraments. From the Psalms to Paul’s letters, the Bible itself assumes its message can be grasped by all believers, not just scholars. Church fathers like Augustine and Athanasius agreed that Scripture feeds both the simple and the wise, shining light for those who study it faithfully. Yet clarity depends not just on intellect but on obedience—sin and pride cloud our understanding. The Spirit opens our eyes as we approach Scripture with faith, reverence, and a heart ready to follow God.

    This episode, and indeed this entire series, draws heavily on and is informed by major theological resources, including Wayne Grudem's seminal work, Systematic Theology: An Introduction to Biblical Doctrine.

  • Inerrant and Infallible: Trusting God’s Word
    Nov 2 2025

    In this episode, we talk about inerrancy—the idea that the Bible has no mistakes—and infallibility—the idea that it cannot make mistakes. Something can be inerrant but still able to make an error, but only God and His Word are truly infallible. The Bible shows that God is truthful and His Word is perfect and trustworthy. If we deny inerrancy, we are saying that God’s Word could contain mistakes, which makes it hard to trust His promises, including the promise of salvation through Christ. Some people argue the Bible is only true about faith and practice or that manuscript differences matter, but these doubts lead to bigger problems, like questioning all of Scripture and even truth itself. Holding to inerrancy is important because it keeps our faith strong and our trust in God sure.

  • Every Word: Why the Bible Claims to Be God's Absolute Word
    Oct 19 2025

    In this episode, we dive into the most foundational claim of Christianity: that the Bible’s words are not just human writings, but the very words of God. This single claim establishes the Bible as the final and absolute authority for all life and doctrine. We’ll explore why accepting or rejecting this idea fundamentally changes the entire Christian faith, and how both the Old and New Testaments consistently bear witness to this divine origin.
