Equip yourself with powerful tools to evaluate the quality of information, ensuring you can discern credible sources fro JOEL 2 GENERATION PODCAST DJ (David John) This is a Podcast for people who are hungry for God - for God Himself, for His Inerrant Word and for His Kingdom. An Apostolic faith was delivered to the Church that was complete (Jude 1:3). It is THAT FAITH that we must contend for, teach, and guard. God is raising up a faithful, obedient remnant, a 'Joel 2 Generation', who will not settle for anything less than everything the Lord will release at this time in history. A people who are modern-day sons/daughters of Issachar (1 Chron. 12:32) who discern the times in which we live and who know what God's people should do.False Shepherds have distorted God's Word and watered down the cost of following Jesus. (thus our new picture of Coptic martyrs at the hands of ISIS terrorists). Judgment always begins in the household of faith (1 Peter 4:17). God is exposing falsehood and purifying His Bride. He has always done that throughout Church History and is doing so now in an accelerated way. Blog & Mablog Canon Press The point of this podcast is pretty broad — “All of Christ for all of life.” In order to make that happen, we need “theology that bites back.” I want to advance what you might call a Chestertonian Calvinism, and to bring that attitude to bear on education, sex and culture, theology, politics, book reviews, postmodernism, expository studies, along with other random tidbits that come into my head. My perspective is usually not hard to discern. In theology I am an evangelical, postmill, Calvinist, Reformed, and Presbyterian, pretty much in that order. In politics, I am slightly to the right of Jeb Stuart. In my cultural sympathies, if we were comparing the blight of postmodernism to a vast but shallow goo pond, I would observe that I have spent many years on these stilts and have barely gotten any of it on me.
