In the first half hour we discussed Sean Penn’s anti-Christian diatribe where he pontificates that Christians should be ashamed of our faith, and then in the second half we discussed apologetic methodologies, contrasting a soundly biblical approach with that of evidentialism.
Did thirty minutes on current events (the ethnicity discussion mainly) before firing up the Radio Free Geneva theme and tackling two videos, one from Greg Boyd, and the other from Kevin Thompson, both aimed at refuting Calvinism. Boyd’s was the general discussion, Thompson pretended that Reformed exegetes ignore the phrase “in him” at Ephesians 1:4. We debunked that claim. Here
Not sure it was fair I had to compete with the President’s speech (which a friend described as a sleepy grandpa trying to talk at 2am), but we covered some neat upcoming events (mainly on the trip to and from G3), talked about some fundamental and foundational issues relating to Romans 13, and finished up looking at a flurry of

Don’t forget the 90 minute exegetical debate today with Dr. Michael Brown, live on the Dividing Line, 10am PDT! That is an hour earlier than the normal Tuesday time slot. There will not be a later program at the regular Thursday slot. No, we will not have time for calls. We will be working hard to get everything into only
Started looking at Emir Caner’s sermon at TRBC, along with other things!
Spent the majority of today’s program reviewing recent developments in the rapidly accelerating collapse of morality and ethics in the West, along with the rising totalitarianism of the left.
