This episode is all about convincing you of the importance of systematic theology, and why our best choice is a new edition of an old book: Theoretical-Practical Theology by Petrus Van Mastricht.

Bearing one another's burdens is tricky business. We might embrace the extreme of micromanaging people's lives in the name of 'helping'. Or, we might compromise truth and holiness by affirming everything someone does in the name of 'love'. Today, let's talk about a balanced approach that avoids both extremes. We'll find this balance in the book of Galatians chapter 6. This is episode 78 of the Better Bible Reading Podcast with Kevin Morris!

Today we're looking back again at an important figure in church history. This time we'll be looking at the english Puritan named John Owen. Among the many contributions John Owen has made to Christians, perhaps the most important one is how he helps us learn about overcoming temptation. We'll see how he does this from three key verses in scripture. This is episode 70 of the Better Bible Reading Podcast with Kevin Morris!

Today on Teaching Thursdays we'll be spending some time in Psalm 124. Psalm 124 calls us to think about our Christian life as an 'us and them' dynamic. But 'us and them' in Psalm 124 is not about Christians considering themselves better than others. Instead, it reminds us of God's grace and calls us to understand who we would be if it weren't for God. This is the Better Bible Reading Podcast with Kevin Morris Episode 69!

One of the ways Bible readers can grow in their appreciation of the Bible is by looking back to figures in church history. One such figure is John Calvin, a man who is either loved or hated. But rather than associating Calvin with abstract doctrines and theological debates, we should take some time to learn about the man behind the name. As we do that today, we'll see a man who spent his life upholding the Bible as the most important treasure given to God's people!
