Episode 5
This is the second episode in a series on the topic of Calvinism. Joe Anady, Austin Pine, and Mike Thezier continue to deal with foundational issues, asking the question, what is our authority for truth? The way that we answer this question will undoubtedly have a huge impact upon what we believe. We know you are probably eager to get into the subject of Calvinism itself (T.U.L.I.P.), but please take the time to consider these foundational issues before moving on.
