The Remnant Radio's Podcast
The Remnant Radio educates and equips believers in God's Word & Spirit, exploring Christian theology, church history, and the gifts of the Spirit in a manner that is engaging, relatable, and inspiring. Weekly, we bring together Christian influencers from various denominations to explore theology, church history, and the gifts of the Spirit. We don't always agree with the views of our guests. And, we donât expect that you will always agree, either. But we are brothers and sisters in Christ, and we agree to humbly approach Godâs Word so we can better understand it together.
In each episode, we strive to offer constructive dialogue and healthy pushback without veering into argumentative or combative territory. Expect each Remnant Radio episode to be not only informative but also encouraging, entertaining, and, hopefully, inspiring. Our ultimate goal is to help every individual break out of their theological echo chamber and engage in the conversation.

When Theologians Turn on Each Other: What Owen vs. Baxter Teaches Us About Christian Division
What happens when two theological giants who love Jesus have a FIERY public fallout? đ„ The forgotten conflict between Puritans John Owen and Richard Baxter holds a sobering lesson for today.
In this episode of Remnant Radio, we sit down with Dr. Tim Cooper, a leading scholar on 17th-century Puritanism, to unpack the intense disagreement between Owen and Baxterâtwo titans of the post-Reformation era. Despite their shared love for Christ, Scripture, and the Gospel, their clash over salvation, church structure, and Christian ethics led to a public split that fractured the Puritan movement. Their story shows us how pride, personality, and past wounds can tragically impact even important theological debates.
But this isnât just fascinating history! This episode is a direct challenge to todayâs church. As theological disputes rage online and in person, the OwenâBaxter conflict raises urgent questions for us:
-How should believers navigate public disagreement biblically?
-When does contending for truth accidentally lead to unnecessary division?
-What kind of Christ-like character must accompany our doctrine?
If youâve ever wrestled with how to hold strong convictions while still loving others and avoiding toxic conflict, this conversation is for you.
