Episodes

  1. Episode 25 - Metaphysics Affects Everything

    What do such metaphysical concepts as Nominalism, Realism, and Voluntarism have to do with the trans movement, woke politics, and anxiety about one’s salvation? You’ll find out on this week’s episode of Canterbury Trails, as hosts C. Jay Engel and Jared Lovell welcome back to the show Dr. Thomas...

  2. Episode 24 - The Formularies and Christian Life

    If you want to understand some Christian denominations or churches, you will likely be pointed to a systematic theology or a confession or catechism. In short, you will be given a set of propositions to compare with other systems. Anglicanism has propositions, to be sure, but to really understand...

  3. Episode 23 - Church Authority and Christian Unity

    One issue that continues to divide Christians is the question of spiritual authority. All Christians agree that the Holy Scriptures are the Word of God. But what about other authoritative voices and claims within the Church? Which authorities have the right to bind the conscience? Is the…

Join us as our hosts, C. Jay...

  7. Episode 19 - The Oxford Movement

    Who were the Tractarians? What was the Oxford Movement? Was this a good, necessary, and salutary development for the Anglican Church? Or not? C. Jay is away today, but Jared is joined by Dr. Charles Erlandson, his former professor and mentor at Cranmer Theological House to discuss the Oxford...

  8. Episode 18 - Israel, Jews, and Antisemitism

    Few hot button issues are hotter than the question of the Jewish people and antisemitism. But that’s the very question on the table in today’s episode of Canterbury Trails. Our listeners know this podcast is dedicated to the cultural apologetic for Anglicanism, so why are we talking about this...

  9. Episode 17 - Generational Wealth

Jay discuss an important upcoming conference sponsored by Jared’s church: Building Generational Wealth: Preparing Heirs for the Unexpected Journey.

  10. Episode 16 - Anglicanism and the Founding of America

    You’ve heard the Puritan narrative of the history of America—the Pilgrims, the Mayflower Compact, the Great Awakening, all leading up to Independence and the Revolution. But are you ready for the Anglican version of the story? In the early days of America, few outside New England would have even...

  11. Episode 15 - Tyndale, Language, and the Anglo-American Tradition

    What defines American Protestantism? Recording this episode of Canterbury Trails the week after the American Independence Day, Jared Lovell and C. Jay Engel reflect on this question, and delve into the impact especially of language on the theology of our Anglo-American faith. Perhaps the two most...

  12. Episode 14 - Preaching in the Anglican Tradition

    What is the purpose of preaching? Is it just something to endure while waiting for the Main Event of Communion? Or is preaching itself the Main Event, with Communion merely a monthly or quarterly extra? Or does the truth lie somewhere in the via media? On this week’s episode of Canterbury Trails,...

  13. Episode 13 - Sanctification and Manual Labor

    What do sanctification, basketball, playing guitar, and plumbing have in common? And why does our special guest have “ora et labora” tattooed on his hands? On today’s episode of Canterbury Trails, C. Jay Engel and Jared Lovell talk to plumber, writer, and postulant in the Reformed Episcopal…

  14. Episode 12 - Time, Ritual, and the Christian Story

    C. Jay is away this week, but Jared carries on with a fascinating conservation about Time. With returning guest Jesse Nigro of The North American Anglican, Jared talks about how the way we think about Time can serve catechetical purposes. One reason Christianity was able to survive through the...

  15. Episode 11 - The Thirty-Nine Articles

    What does it mean to be an Anglican? Or even a Christian? The Thirty-Nine Articles of Religion, written and adopted by the Anglican Church in 1571, have a lot to say on the subject. But today, The Thirty-Nine Articles are regarded as more of a formulary, little more than an interesting historical...

  16. Episode 10 - The Stations of the Cross

    What exactly are “The Stations of the Cross”? Is that a Roman Catholic thing, or does it have roots in the Protestant tradition as well? And if Protestant, what about Anglican?

  17. Episode 9 - Anselm of Canterbury

Jay Engel and Jared Lovell, are joined by guest Billy Jenkins to talk about music in the Anglican tradition. The discussion covers music...

  19. Episode 7 - "Old High Church" Planting

    We’re in a rediscovery phase of American religious life. Many are turning from the shallow worship and church life of contemporary evangelicalism and finding older paths. One of those paths is the Anglican Church. On today's episode, Jared Lovell and C. Jay Engel welcome Joseph Colleti, creator…

  20. Episode 6 - The English Reformation: King and Pope

    Was the English Reformation all about theological differences? Or was it strictly a case of political maneuvering? Does the truth lie somewhere between these two extremes? And if the English Reformation did include a significant political component, does that make it any less legitimate? Join C....

  21. Episode 5 - C.S. Lewis

    Does Narnia reflect Anglican cultural structures? Is it a story-world that can only be created by an Anglican? And why has C.S. Lewis been called the last exit before atheism?

  22. Episode 4 - Lutheran Influence on Early Anglican Theology

  23. Episode 3 - Education
