Reformed Music Online "Free" at Streaming Sites - McMahon
Greetings all. I've been investing time in creating Reformed and Puritan Music for two years now. At the start, it was trial and error. Tech has improved in this incredibly. Now, done right, the songs are indistinguishable from actual recordings. I've gone back and remastered all the originals. Everything is updated in the latest tech. I've been taking Puritan Books, summarizing chapters, and turning them into music in varied genres. With that said, over the last month I've been uploading... Read more
How important are the languages?
I am a big fan of studying the languages and in most if not all cases would recommend someone training for ministry to study them. I have only been practicing them for about 3 years now (more Hebrew than Greek) but I have found it really beneficial and given me insight that I had missed with only the English. Undoubtedly though there are some who think that the languages are not very important and question whether they need to be studied at all. I was wondering if you guys had any specific... Read more

Advice and resources for a new father
Hello all! My wife and I are expecting our first child toward the beginning of next year. I wanted to reach out and see if there have been any resources apart from the scriptures that have been particularly helpful. Of course if there are any specific passages that have been encouraging to you or advice from wise men and women these would be more than welcome as well!
2026 PB Pick'em Week 6 ** Kick-off is 6pm CDT, FRIDAY
Good morning, my fellow college football lovers! Week 6 is here, and even down here in Houston it is apparent that autumn is in the air - it only reached a high of 80 degrees yesterday. The State Fair of Texas is well underway, and the Red River Shootout is this weekend... but alas, the game spread reflects Oklahoma's troubles, so we won't be including it in the slate. We do nonetheless have a number of choice matchups in this week's lineup... including #2 Georgia at #6 Alabama... and this... Read more

Best Westminster Confession of Faith commentary?
Looking for a thorough, clear and basic commentary on the WCF. Besides RC Sproul’s , which other ones would you recommend?
The Psalms Project
Good morning, does anyone listen to The Psalms Project on Spotify? I recently found it and have liked it so far, but I am completely new to having the Psalms put into a musical score and don't know what is considered acceptable. I put this in the music forum because I don't use this for worship, just general listening. Below is a link to the artist page.

[LIVE TEACHING SERIES!] Can We Legislate Reality? 'The War on Reality' Session #2 PLUS Q&A
How can Christians equip themselves to discern which public policies align with their faith? Is the church's best political strategy going to be treating the voting booth like a personal prayer closet--sending people in with eyes closed, hands raised high, and voting for whoever seems "nicest" while singing "Jesus Take the Wheel"? We think there's a better way to go about this. Join us on MON. 10/12 at 7:30 PM ET to catch a glimpse of Frank and Phoenix filming their BRAND NEW TV SERIES--'The War of Reality' in front of a LIVE audience at Freedom House Church (Lake Norman) in Cornelius, NC. This week they'll be covering Session #2 - 'Can We Legislate Reality?' which also includes '10 Reasons Christians Should Be Involved in Politics'.

Become member in OPC or PCA Church?
As I continue to navigate and learn more about the NAPARC world, I have somewhat of a dilemma. I've been attending a PCA church and a OPC church simultaneously through the summer. I'm looking to become a member of either here in the Twin cities so that I may come under care and begin pursuing ordination. I like both , the PCA church is much larger and have already immersed me in some of the leadership training opportunities at the church. The OPC church is smaller but powerful preaching... Read more
God or Government: Who Do You Obey?
Does submitting to governing authorities mean Christians should always obey the government? From abortion and religious freedom to illegal immigration, Frank explains how Christians should apply 1 Peter 2:13 in today's political climate, when civil disobedience is justified, and why remaining politically silent isn't always an option. 📚 𝗥𝗘𝗖𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗘𝗗 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗢𝗨𝗥𝗖𝗘𝗦 Legislating Morality: Is it Wise?

An insightful quote from Pope Francis on Sadness
"We receive so much from the Lord for our enjoyment, that sadness can be a sign of ingratitude. We can get so caught up in ourselves that we are unable to recognize God's gifts."(Pope Francis, Gaudete et Excultate 126) I thought this would be a helpful quote for those of us more prone to sadness and melancholy
Personal theology shifting from my church's
Hello all! I don't know if this is the right section to voice this plea for advice, but as I've never posted here before, I figured I'd give it a shot. In a nutshell, my theology has gone through a reformed transformation in the past year or so. I would say that I lie on the razor's edge between a reformed baptist and a reformed presbyterian, with the topic of paedobaptism being my current mental/intellectual barrier. My family are all unreformed baptists (unrelated, but perhaps helpful for... Read more
Best New Testament Greek Textbook
What is the best New Testament Greek reader for someone that has already studied the grammar of Attic Greek? I am studying Attic Greek (using Shelmerdine) in college and would like to start reading the New Testament. I will finish the Shelmerdine textbook over the next month and start reading Xenophon in my Greek 102 class this semester, but I have noticed the vocabulary needed for the New Testament is different from what I've been learning (which is focused on preparing students to read...

We Are Just and Sinners at the Same Time
When Martin Luther said Christians are “at the same time just and sinners,” he wasn’t being logically incoherent. R.C.

John Knox for Armchair Theologians

Thomas Watson
I must confess I have never read Thomas Watson. But with all the excitement over RHB’s release of his complete works, I figure I ought to read something by him. What is something short by him, 20-50 pages (including excerpts from longer works), that I should read to get a taste of his style and where I should prioritize him compared to Knox, Owen, Flavel, Warfield, Edwards, and others who I’m considering diving into more deeply? Thanks.
Why We Love Superheroes w/ Ransom Poythress
Why are we so fascinated by superheroes? In this episode of the Westminster Podcast, Nate Shannon talks with Ransom Poythress about superheroes, science, storytelling, and the Christian worldview. Drawing from a course he teaches at Houghton University, Poythress explores what characters like Superman and Batman reveal about our understanding of human nature, our longing to transcend our limitations, and our desire for someone powerful enough to save us. The conversation moves from the science behind superpowers to the deeper structure of superhero stories themselves. Why do stories of sacrifice, salvation, good and evil, and ultimate victory resonate so deeply with us? Poythress argues that our attraction to these stories reflects something far greater: the world really is broken, we really do need a Savior, and the fictional heroes we create can offer faint echoes of the true story fulfilled in Jesus Christ. Nate and Ransom also discuss how these stories can provide natural points of contact for evangelism and a distinctly Van Tilian approach to apologetics.
