The Parrhesians
The Greek word is parrhesia" means “forthright truth-telling.” One who speaks with parrhesia doesn’t flatter, manipulate, or use rhetorical tricks. He doesn’t massage or bend the truth, and he doesn’t hedge. He’s confident truth is on his side, and he takes moral responsibility for speaking it. Join Kyle Bennett, Peter Chace and Nate Devlin as they offer bold truth and discuss how to be the church in a world possessed by lies.

The "Scary" CREC with Douglas Wilson
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Doug Wilson is kinda cool. He knows what it’s like to be the most conservative kid at camp and he’s okay with it. He also knows when it’s time to shout at culture, and when it’s time to whisper. Which is a nifty gift. Oh, and he doesn’t love paying taxes. Which means he’s definitely human, and most likely a Christian. He also has no qualms with R.C. Sproul. So, like we said: he's kinda cool.
As our congregation seeks to join the Communion of Reformed Evangelical Churches (CREC), Pastor Nate, Pastor Peter, and Pastor Kyle chatted with Doug about all the “scaries” of CREC. Does vitriol have to drip from our lip and obscenity seethe from our teeth? Are women allowed own Bibles and cast votes? Should lesbians and liberals be teaching our kids? Listen, and get your answers.
