This episode was originally ran during the Systematic Theology 1 series.

In this episode I run down the five views on who "the sons of God" are in Genesis 6:2 and why this passage matters to our Christian life.

Welcome back to My Seminary Life. In today's episode, I sit down to discuss one of the books that have made the biggest impact on me in my pulpit supply ministry, Autopsy of a Deceased Church by Thom Rainer. I start off by talking about the odd circumstances around how I first found out about this book, I highlight some of the marks Rainer has of an unhealthy church, and finally, I discuss the one area of health that this book does not cover.

"To injur an opponent is to injure yourself. To control aggression without inflicting injury is the Art of Peace."

Welcome to my dojo, this is Kung Fu Pizza Party. Today, I talk about how I fulfilled one of my Challenges by spending the day meditating on peace inspired by my reading of The Art of Peace by Morihei Ueshiba. In the episode, I discuss why I chose peace as the focal point of my day of meditation, who Ueshiba was, and how I am beginning to apply the teachings of The Art of Peace in my life.

Happy birthday My Seminary Life!

Welcome back to the show. Often here on MSL I say the phrase "I reserve the right to change my mind later."

Welcome back to My Seminary Life. In today's episode, we revisit one of our favorite theologians, Dietrich Bonhoeffer. We go back to 1930 when Bonhoeffer gave a eulogy for the prominent German theologian, Adolf Von Harnack. I start things off by briefly expalining who Von Harnack was, the three things that stand out to me from this eulogy, and how these things impact how we worship God and make disciples. I also talk longer than the eulogy itself actually went.
