A Matter of Truth
Biblical Illiteracy - A Church Epidemic
In this episode of "A Matter of Truth", Anthony and Alex interview author Dave Jenkins to discuss his latest book "The Word Explored: The Problem of Biblical Illiteracy & What to Do about It". Together they dig into Dave's book, biblical illiteracy within the church, and solutions on how to deal with the ongoing epidemic!
Dave's book examines the problem of biblical illiteracy and helps readers learn the basics of Bible reading, church membership, and how the local Church should function under the Word reminding us that believing the right things is not enough, we need to move into obedience to the Word that we claim to believe, in every area of the Christian life and ministry.

36. Deconstruction Part 2
42:04||Season 1, Ep. 36Part 2 of our series on Deconstruction! We unpack a whole plethora of material starting with the looks of deconstruction to the church structure that leads to it. Tune in as we dig into this hot topic!An evaluation of what we are holding to is absolutely biblical. We should be checking our faith and weighing what we are being fed at church against God’s Word. So, “deconstructing” from *the terrible baggage of secular ideologies, *the dreadful theology, and practices of SO many churches today to then reconstruct to the true biblical precepts set before us in God’s word is the call! Yes, in 2 Corinthians 13:5, Christians are called to:“Examine yourselves, to see whether you are in the faith.” IN THE FAITH, not adding sinful and self seeking ideologies to the faith because we disagree with God’s word. To Not conform to the world - Romans 12:2.Resources:Got QuestionsDesiring God#amatteroftruthpodcast #truthforlife #reformedtheology #christianpodcasts #Christianity #grace #christianpodcast #christiansermons #rcsproul #Bible #freedominchrist #jesuschrist #johnMacArthur #christianpodcasters #bibleanswers #godswordalone #sounddoctrine #christianmen #evangelicalism #evangelical #deconstruction #exvangelical #deconstructingchristian #joshharris #kevinmax #dctalk #deconstructing #andystanley #repent #romans2 #2Corinthians1335.

So what’s the story: a mega church, "rap" music and sex?
01:03:09||Season 1, Ep. 33On today’s show, Anthony and Alex dig into two topics… our first today is the topic of Steven Furtick’s son, and his new rap song. Instead of criticizing the music, we turn to see how other Christians have reviewed this music. Then shifting gears, we turn to the Old Testament, and discuss incest and polygamy.

Jonah: You Can Run But You Can't Hide! - A Christian WorldView
52:17||Season 1, Ep. 32We are back on the mic to take on an interesting book of the Old Testament! Anthony and Alex dig into Jonah and look at the historical relevancy of this book… is it a far-fetched story of a man running from God only to be swallowed by a fish… or does it tell of God’s divine plan for election? Tune in as we start to unpack this unique book.Follow us on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/amatteroftruthhttps://www.instagram.com/speak.gospel.truth/https://www.instagram.com/coram.deo.life/Resources:Jonah: The Rogue Prophet------------#bookofjonah #jonahandthewhale #biblicalchristianity#Christianworldview #jonah #stevenlawson #biblestudy #biblicaltruth #charlesspurgeon #biblechurch #rcsproul #repentance #biblicalliving #repent #jesuschrist #bibledevotion #gospel #calvinism #johncalvin #orthodoxchristian #christianteens #christianmen #christianwomen #theologymatters #christalone #runningfromGod #christianyouth #Christianpodcasters #Christianpodcasting #christianpodcast #christianradio #Christianstories #Christianbooks #minorprophet31. A Thought to Ponder-Just Think
56:13||Season 1, Ep. 31We kick of 2022 with our first episode with a deep dive into critical thinking. In this episode, Anthony and Alex tackle this concept that becoming a Christian suddenly makes you stop thinking. We briefly look at contextual criticism as well as the historical narrative to support our position that Christians are just as intelligent, and should never back down from an intellectual conversation surrounding faith.ALSO.......we apologize for Alex sounding like he's in a fish bowl. We pray it doesn't distract you from the content in the show.#biblicalthinking #thinking #amatteroftruth #Christianity #truthforlife #biblicalliteracy #christianpodcast #barnetwork #renewingyourmind #Bible #christianpodcasters #paulwasher #gracetoyou #johnMacArthur #Christian #christianpodcasts #christianpodcaster #orthodoxchristian #christianteens #christianmen #christianwomen #theologymatters #christalone #christianyouth #leonardravenhill ———————————————#stevenfurtick #andystanley #billjohnson30. Ending of the year!
01:00:51||Season 1, Ep. 30We wrap up 2021 with a reflection on the time we have had with this show. We dig into some of the topics again that we faced and find ourselves discussing the need for solid biblical churches. Tune in as we only seem to begin to scratch the surface.29. Is it True that Christmas is Pagan?
46:26||Season 1, Ep. 29In today’s episode, we have a guest whom you all likely know. Nick Campbell with Christ is the Cure will be joining me today to discuss his upcoming book “Holidays and the Feasts” that is now available for order. Claims regarding the supposed pagan origins of Christmas always creep up this time of year and Nick put all his research, historical and biblical, into this helpful book that not only shows that the origins of the holiday are not pagan, but also lays out the inconsistencies of the arguments used in attempts to make these claims. Our conversation is a great teaser for the Christmas section of the book, but there are also sections of the book we didn’t get to touch on in this interview, namely a section on the supposed pagan origins of Easter and another on whether Christians are required to keep the biblical feasts. Here’s the link where you can purchase Holidays and the Feasts by Nicholas Campbell.And here’s the link to more information on the book on the Christ is the Cure website:http://christisthecure.org/holidaysandthefeasts/You can find Nick on his social media accounts under the name Christ is the Cure on Instagram and Facebook.Find us on Instagram:A Matter of TruthAnthonyAlex"Come Thou Fount of Every Blessing" words and music by John Wyeth, Robert Robinson© Words: Public Domain Music: Public DomainPerformed by Sea of Voices------#Christianity #christisthecurepodcast #amatteroftruth #christianpodcast #renewingyourmind #Bible #christianpodcasters #christmastree #christmasfeast #gracetoyou #johnMacArthur #Christian #christmastime #christianpodcasts #christianpodcaster #stnicholas #orthodoxchristian #christianteens #christianmen #christianwomen #theologymatters #christalone #christianyouth #christmas #holidayseason #holiday #holidays #heisthereasonfortheseason #christalone #amatteroftruthpodcast #amatteroftruth
