Eusebeia with Josh Kruger

The Reformation paved the way for the Enlightenment.  Reformations of reformations continued to splinter the Christian church.  The colonization of the Americas led to new hopes and dreams.  And the Enlightenment project kicked off, having a profound effect on culture and the Christian Church.  Check it out!

More splintering.  More reformation of the reformation.  New groups.  New movements.  New questions.  Who is the true church?  And some groups who even rejected the debate altogether.  All this continues our reformation series and lays the groundwork for understanding the Enlightenment.  Check it out.

The reformation continues.  More new movements and groups.  The reformation spreads to England.  The Roman Church pushes back strongly at the Council of Trent.  Orthodox Christianity waits in the wings.  The volatile era of the 1500s and 1600s continues.

The fuse was lit.  Europe was a powder key ready to explode.  Reformation!  Massive changes were coming to the church - stirrings in the 1300s and 1400s became full blown movements in the 1500s.  In this episode we learn of some of the key leaders and key ideas the spurred the early reformation of the Roman church.

From the middle ages to the renaissance - a time period of corruption and serious challenges to even being able to see an authentic Christianity through the fog.  Five major factors came together to set the stage for the reformation.

The legacy of the imperial church continues.  A schism between west and east.  The ugliness of intertwining church and state as well as the horrors of the Crusades.  From the "Dark Ages" to the "Middle Ages" today's episode journeys through a rough millennium in the church's history.

The early church gave way to the imperial church.  The poor, marginalized, suffering, persecuted church suddenly became the powerful, wealthy, authoritative church.  Emperors, bishops, councils, O my!  Christianity was forever transformed by this development.  Check out this episode of the dawn of the imperial church.

Church history continues.  In this episode we learn about the early church's response to the rise of heresies/false teachings.  We learn about the need for apostolic authority, universal recognition, and the biblical canon.  Check it out!

A new series begins!  Church history.  In this first episode we explore the early origins of the Christian movement in the Mediterranean world of the first centuries AD.

I went a strange little theology journey.  Philosophical theology and biblical theology combined to form a path of "stepping stones."  One layer built on another layer.  And the conclusion was joy.  If you're in the mood for a little theology - then put your thinking caps on and enjoy!
