Ryan Eras, headmaster of Niagara Classical Academy sits down to talk with us about why they're starting a Classical Christian Academy in the Niagara region, what it's about and why it's important. A classical and Christian education is a method of teaching and of seeing the world. It has its origins in the classical, Greco-Roman era of history. It is a very time-tested method of education to train people to become self-governing citizens. It is interested in what makes something good, true, and beautiful, or what keeps it from being those things. A classical Christian education is a deliberate work of forming the soul of the student. The academics are rigorous, but our emphasis is on modelling and cultivating virtue rather than academics because unless virtue is being practiced, academics cannot follow. ▶️ UP NEXT: Public School vs Christian Education ✅ Niagara Classical Academy: https://niagaraclassical.com/ ✅ Follow on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/niagaraclassical/ ✅ Check out upcoming events: https://niagaraclassical.com/about/events/ *RESOURCES* 📘 Classical Education and the Homeschool - https://amzn.to/4c2Rc4W 📘 Wisdom and Eloquence: A Christian Paradigm for Classical Learning - https://amzn.to/4aX0Uoi 📘 An Introduction to Classical Education - https://amzn.to/4bWkthZ 📘 Shaping Hearts and Minds: A Case For Classical Christian Education - https://amzn.to/4c7fPxa ----------------- ℹ️ https://www.theotivity.com/ 📩 Newsletter: https://theotivity.com/newsletter/ 💰 Donate: https://www.givesendgo.com/theotivity ➡️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theotivity ➡️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theotivity/ ➡️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/theotivity

2:04:13

How do we build God's Kingdom? What is the Kingdom? This talk explores these important topics for the Christian life with practical examples of how we can build the Kingdom strategically, incrementally, and generationally. This talk was originally delivered at Faith Baptist Muskoka to a men's group. I hope that it helps inspire and equip more Christians to seek first the Kingdom and see the LORD bless the works of our hands to disciple the nations.

What does the book of Revelation and mission work have to do with each other? Dave Forsythe is a missionary and church planter who has written a commentary based on Puritan expositions of John's Apocalypse published by Founders Press. In this episode we talk about his experience on the mission field and what role eschatology plays in mission work as well as his journey to his eschatological viewpoint. We chat about his new commentary, "Vengeance Has Come: A Puritan-Minded Exposition of the Apocalypse for the Modern Church" and why it's important for today.

We talked about the renewed interest in public engagement and Political Theology by many Christians today and different models of political theory.

074 | Is the Pope Catholic? - Pope Francis & Infallibility (ft. Dr. Tony Costa) 1:06:28

לפני 40 weeks1:06:28

1:06:28

Dr. Tony Costa discusses several problematic issues with Pope Francis and analyzes the various problems with the Roman Catholic doctrine of Papal Infallibility. In this episode, we discuss some of the scandals that Pope Francis has been through including changing views on divorce, universalism, the denial of Hell, being accused of heresy by Catholic theologians and more. We examine the top theological issues with Pope Francis and whether he could be legitimately considered a heretic by both Catholics and Protestants. We also look at reasons why Pope Francis has pushed leftward on many issues and consider whether the Roman Catholic doctrine of Papal Infallibility holds any weight. This is an episode we hope will help Protestants and Catholics alike think carefully about these issues and equip them for fruitful conversations. Tony Costa earned a B.A. and M.A. in Biblical Studies from the University of Toronto and earned his Ph.D in New Testament and Theology from Radboud University in the Netherlands. He is a professor of apologetics at the Toronto Baptist Seminary.

071 | The Feminization of the Church and the Need for Masculine Christianity (ft. Zachary Garris) 1:02:14

לפני 43 weeks1:02:14

1:02:14

Author and Pastor Zachary Garris talks about the problem of the feminization of the Evangelical Church and the need to recover the masculine nature of Biblical Christianity. We discuss some compromises of Complementarianism, how feminism crept into the church and how God's design for the sexes extends beyond just the home and church. Complementarianism, which started off as a movement with good intentions to preserve the distinction of gender roles in response to Evangelical Feminism in the 1980s fell short in many ways of the older, more Biblical understanding of Patriarchy. We also tease out some of the related problems with Radical Two Kingdoms Theology (R2K) and how it may be symptomatic or a contributing cause of the feminization of the church. Lastly, we touch on some issues of cultural engagement and political theory.

We discuss why the Evangelical family is so weak today, what can be done to remedy this situation, and the Biblical reasons for Family Integrated Worship in churches. We also discuss the interesting connection to his Postmillennial worldview and how that plays out in church life as a pastor.

069 | Building Strong Christian Communities: Families, Churches, Businesses & Schools (ft. Josh Ankenmann) 1:26:08

לפני 1 year1:26:08

1:26:08

Building strong Christian Communities is even more important in the troubled times that we live in. With a rising anti-Christian sentiment in much of our culture, Bible-believing Christians are facing more discrimination in the workplace, schools, entertainment, culture and even legally. Everything from DEI to ESG to BLM and CRT, and all the other ominous 3-letter acronyms for ungodly ideologies creates a cultural atmosphere where many conservative Christians feel more and more pressured to compromise their faith. When we're isolated we're vulnerable and weak, so robust communities where Christians learn from, support and build up each other are vital. In this episode, we sit down again with Josh Ankenmann, the founder of Algonquin Digital Media Co. to discuss the importance of building strong Christian communities and how that can radically impact our lives and the community and culture around us for the glory of God. We talk about what it takes to build strong families, churches, businesses and the importance of Christian education in establishing strong and lasting Christian communities that can be a refuge in dark times but also serve as a city on a hill to shine the light of the Gospel to a world in need.

068 | A Christian View of Economics and Wealth💰 ft. Jonathan Wellum 1:03:33

With economic recession, inflation and increasing national debt, how are Christians supposed to think about their money and building wealth to leave an inheritance? In this episode, we interview Jonathan Wellum from Rocklinc Investment Partners Inc. on how God's Law helps us understand economics from a Christian perspective. He talks about how the Bible's economic principles help build strong economies, the problems with inflationary fiat currency, and what's the better (more Biblical) alternative. We also talk about how Christian entrepreneurs can build thriving businesses even in a time of economic hardship and how Christians in full-time ministry can build equity and wealth. Finally, Jonathan exposes some of the most common misconceptions about economics and gives some advice on how pastors can help equip their flocks to think Christianly about economics.

Secularism has failed and it is doomed to run its course. Big words, but our guest today, Dr. Tony Costa thinks he can back it up. We interview him about his forthcoming book, "No King But Christ" and how Christians today need to fully embrace and live in accordance with the total Lordship of Jesus Christ in all spheres of life. He unpacks how the failure to realize the totalizing nature of Christ's Kingship has led to many of the issues and weaknesses the church faces today. He also explains how secularism and the ideologies it has spawned have brought ruin and are destined to collapse due to their own inconsistencies. Dr. Costa is a respected apologist and professor, and I know that you will greatly enjoy this conversation!

In this episode, we sit down with Pastor Alex Kloosterman from City Hill Baptist Church and Dominion Press in Peterborough, Ontario to discuss an open letter to the churches of Canada in April 2023 written at Dominion Press concerning the issue of the response to the lockdowns. We talk about the effort to recast the situation in a different light and why that's concerning. We also touch on why this issue is still relevant and the proper relationship between forgiveness and repentance. In the conversation, we talk about the sinful idolatry that took place and whether or not these issues are serious enough for a Christian to consider leaving a church. Ultimately, we talk about the desire for real dialogue to happen and reconciliation between these different parties within the Reformed Evangelical world. That should be ours, and every Christian's desire, that we would see true unity happen - not due to compromise, but rather through Spirit-wrought conviction of the truth. ----------------- 🔗 Links Mentioned: 🔹 https://www.dominionpress.ca/p/an-open-letter-to-the-churches-of 🔹 https://ca.thegospelcoalition.org/tgc-canada/canadian-pastors-forum-covid-19/ 🔹 https://www.dominionpress.ca/ 🔹 https://www.hillcitybaptist.com/ ----------------- ℹ️ For more info on THEOTIVITY, please visit: https://www.theotivity.com/ 📩 *Sign up for the newsletter*: https://theotivity.com/newsletter/ 🎙 *Subscribe* to the podcast: https://theotivity.com/podcasts/ 💰 *Donate* at: https://www.givesendgo.com/theotivity ➡️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/theotivity ➡️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/theotivity/ ➡️ Twitter: https://twitter.com/theotivity…

לפני 1 year1:05:35

1:05:35

With Feminism, the "Red-Pill" movement, and all the gender confusion happening in our societies today, how should Christian men understand God's design for the sexes? In this episode, we interview Michael Foster, the author of the book "It's Good To Be A Man" and pastor of East River Church, about the topic of Biblical Patriarchy. We explore some insights about the book, the differences between the Complementarian Movement and Biblical Patriarchy, and some of the important differences between men and women. We also consider if there should be a difference between how pastors preach to men versus women, how to safeguard against some of the excesses of the "red-pill" movement in the "man-o-sphere", and what is the Biblical definition of "effeminacy".

063 | Christians, DON'T Send Your Kids to Public School 1:18:45

לפני 1 year1:18:45

1:18:45

Should Christian parents send their kids to public school? Does the Bible say anything about how we should educate our children? Many are afraid to give a clear word on this controversial topic. Many think that God's Word leaves it up to us to choose what we think is best or most convenient. However, our children's education is one of the most important responsibilities of parents, and specifically fathers. How Christians educate their children will determine the future of churches and societies - so this is no small matter. I believe that God's Word does have clear guidance for us on this issue, and in this video, I lay out my case for why Christians should not send their kids to public school, but instead are obligated to give their children a distinctly Christian education. This may take the form of homeschooling, private Christian school, classical Christian education or even other creative ways. But, the main point is that if we keep giving our kids to Caesar - they'll keep coming back as Romans. 📰 Read the article here: https://theotivity.com/post/public-school/ ----------------- 📚 Recommended Resources: ✅ The Case For Classical Christian Education by Doug Wilson - https://amzn.to/4668Z8k ✅ The Christian Philosophy of Education Explained by Stephen Perks - https://amzn.to/3Zd6TBr ✅ The Marxification of Education: Paulo Freire’s Critical Marxism and the Theft of Education by James Lindsay - https://amzn.to/3ZeOcwY ✅ Foundations of Christian Education by Berkhof and Van Til - https://amzn.to/3rli0vn ✅ On Secular Education by R.L.

062 | Is Kids Ministry Actually Biblical? - A Case for Family Integrated Worship 38:51

A lot of modern Evangelical Churches provide some form of Kids Ministry service during their Sunday gatherings. Many Christians take it for granted that this is normal. However, how many have stopped to ask the question, "Is this actually Biblical?" In this episode, we consider the Biblical texts that are usually used to support Kids Ministry to see if this practice is actually supported by the Bible. The answer may surprise many. But if we want to build healthy, Biblical churches, then we should be concerned about what God's Word says and doesn't say about this important topic. 📚 Recommended Resources: ✅ Family Shepherds: Calling and Equipping Men to Lead Their Homes by Voddie Baucham Jr - https://amzn.to/467tD7U ✅ A Declaration of the Complementary Roles of Church and Family - https://churchandfamilylife.com/about/276 ---------------------------- For more info on THEOTIVITY, please visit: https://www.theotivity.com/ To donate to keep THEOTIVITY growing and going, please visit: https://www.givesendgo.com/theotivity Don't forget to share, like and follow @theotivity ---------------------------- This podcast produced by @kurioscreative - https://kuriosmedia.com/…

Many Christians today are confused about how to make sense of the crazy world we live in. Our present moment has many challenges to navigate with ideologies labelled as "Cultural Marxism" in the public square. With the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, Critical Race Theory and Intersectionality, the radical Climate Alarmism, plus the rapid expanse of tyrannical governmental policies that overstep their God-given authority, and the escalation of gender and sexuality issues - many Christians are looking for a way to process these things Biblically. In this lecture, we explore these topics and how we can analyze them from a Christian and Biblically informed worldview to make sense of them and learn how to respond appropriately. The latter half of this video is an open Q&A period. ---------------- 📰 Article: https://theotivity.com/post/understanding-the-times-thinking-biblically-about-our-culture/ ----------------- 📩 Sign up for the newsletter: https://theotivity.com/newsletter/ 🎙 Subscribe to the podcast: https://theotivity.com/podcasts/ 💰 Donate at: https://www.givesendgo.com/theotivity ----------------- #christianpodcast #reformedtheology…

לפני 1 year1:19:51

1:19:51

In many Evangelical churches, people are leaving or switching churches over various issues, some of which are theological. People were wrestling with a lot of cultural issues over the past 3 years and it has caused a lot of Christians to re-examine their beliefs in certain doctrines and pertinent areas of theology. It seems like all of a sudden, people are talking about things like Theonomy, Patriarchalism, Postmillennialism, Sphere Sovereignty, Christian Nationalism, how to live under tyranny, what is the proper role of the church in society, religious freedom, conscience issues, the role of civil government, Cultural Marxism, Wokeness, and a whole host of other issues. In this episode, we'll be taking a look at a framework for Christians to think about these issues and determine their priority. We'll also consider whether or not it is something they should divide or switch churches over, and how to do so in a spirit of grace and brotherly affection.

It's Christmas time and with all the hustle and bustle of this season - it is easy to forget the reason why we intentionally make a fuss about it. It is sad that sometimes the real meaning of Christmas can be lost in the busyness of the season. However, when we take some time to reflect on this marvellous truth - that the Creator God of all the Universe stepped into time and was born of a virgin as a little baby - it is truly a thing to inspire appropriate awe, wonder, worship and witness this season. I pray that this episode will help you to worship our King Jesus and witness to a lost world this Christmas season.

What is a fool? When the Bible uses the word fool - it is not simply engaging in name-calling. It is describing for us some specific characteristics of foolish living so that we can avoid it. It is preparing us to live a life of wisdom. Thus, it is important for us to see the picture the Bible paints of foolish living. This episode is a bit of a mini-systematic theology of foolishness as we glean from the Bible's wisdom 10 marks of a fool.

52:21

If there ever was a contender for God's favourite Bible verse, it would probably be Psalm 110:1. It is the most quoted verse in the New Testament - and for good reason! Psalm 110 is one of the clearest Messianic Psalms and also one which clearly shows us the victory of Christ over all his enemies. Some have even called it the most Postmillennial Psalm of the Bible... In this episode, we take a look at Psalm 110 and its inspired interpretation through the New Testament to see what it means and how it should affect our lives today. We unpack some of the context, the meaning of the original Hebrew and how the New Testament writers used it to speak of Jesus Christ. From this, we see that Jesus Christ really is the Conquering Priest-King who is at the Right Hand of God the Father, ruling and reigning now as he puts all his enemies under his feet in history. This is a vision of the ascended Christ that is not for the faint of heart, but one whom we all need to see!

What's the difference between our secular culture's concept of "Social Justice" and the Bible's true concept of justice? Since the rise of the Black Lives Matter Movement in the wake of the George Floyd riots of 2020, Social Justice has been a hot topic in the cultural conversation. Whether it be through reparations and affirmative action policies, mandatory Equity, Diversity and Inclusion training at our workplaces, Critical Race Theory curriculum in schools, colleges and universities, or not-so-subtle messaging in movies and entertainment - it seems like it is unavoidable these days. As Christians, we must be prepared to give a Biblical answer to our cultural moment today. In this episode, we unpack 6 markers of true Biblical Justice in contrast to Social Justice and see how God's standards of justice are better and more beautiful than the secular perversion of justice.

055 | Abortion's Killer Angel - The Dark Story of Planned Parenthood's Margaret Sanger 1:00:18

1:00:18

Abortion is one of the evilest scourges to plague our modern world. It results in the deaths of over 70 million innocent babies worldwide every year. It is the intentional destruction of life in the womb, made in the image of God and endowed by God with inherent worth, dignity and value. Yet so many today are silent on this horrendous issue. Even many Christians speak "softly" about the hard truth of the massacre of the unborn. However, we must deal truthfully with the problem if we are to prescribe the right cure. There is hope. But that hope is only found in the Gospel and from a genuinely Christian worldview. In this episode, in order to understand today's abortion industry, we take a look at its founder - Margaret Sanger. We see how her life and upbringing, the various radical ideologies she espoused (such as racism, Malthusian eugenics and Marxism), and her lifestyle all contributed to the shape of the abortion industry today. As we explore these things, we will see just how dark abortion is, but also how gloriously bright the light of the Gospel can shine into this darkness.

One of the greatest challenges to God's total sovereignty over all things is the problem of evil. Is God sovereign over evil, and if so, doesn't that then make Him responsible for evil? In this last episode of this series, we'll consider this conundrum through the lens of Scripture itself to see what God's Word has to say on the topic. We'll also consider some important implications of this doctrine, and answer a few objections which were raised. Lastly, we'll also give you some recommended resources for further study.

We'll also consider what other relevant passages of Scripture have to say on God's and our roles in salvation. We'll then contemplate what this means for us today as we reflect on our salvation. These are important truths for us to not just know, but also to love and to hold dear in our hearts. They are core to our assurance and comfort as believers.

If God is sovereign, then how can we have free will? This is a question that has puzzled Christians and kept theologians debating for centuries now. On the surface, it seems like a conundrum. Some argue that we must be totally free otherwise we would be like robots. Others have argued for a type of hard determinism that resembles pagan fatalism and fate. Many just throw up their hands in frustration. Is there any way we can know for sure? In this episode, we start a series where we'll be taking a deep dive into the mysteries of God's sovereignty and human responsibility. In this first episode, we'll start by clearly defining our terms and looking at what is meant by Libertarian Free Will and Biblical Compatibilism - two important phrases in this discussion. From there, we'll continue by looking at some important Biblical texts and what they clearly teach. We'll end off this series by contemplating what this means about the fact that evil exists, some pastoral implications and answer some objections.

The Rapture is one of the most popular beliefs held by many Evangelical Christians today. Yet, it is a doctrine that is relatively new in church history and based on some very shaky foundations. In this episode, as we end off this series in Matthew 24, we examine this doctrine historically and biblically to see if it is actually true. Like good Bereans, we must search the Scriptures thoroughly to see if the traditions we've inherited are actually biblical or not. This doctrine has captivated the imagination of millions of Evangelicals and shaped their understanding of the End Times. While it is not a primary doctrine, it is not unimportant and has major ramifications for Christians today. By examining Matthew 24 and other relevant passages, we explore whether this popular belief is actually true. Articles in this series: JESUS & THE LAST DAYS | Which Generation Would See the End?

40:13

Jesus predicted "the coming of the Son of Man" in Matthew 24. Many Christians believe that he was referring to his final coming in glory at the end of history. However, is this what he was referring to? In this episode, we consider what Christ meant by looking at what the Bible teaches about the "coming of the Son of Man" by comparing it with other Scriptures that Jesus was referring to. We also look at the testimony of history to see whether Jesus's words were actually fulfilled in the timeframe leading up to the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 AD. The answer may be surprising to some Christians and has major implications for our view of the End Times (eschatology).
