Fortitude in Truth

What does Coram Deo mean? What does it truly mean to live before the face of God? How can we grow in our understanding and holiness by applying this biblical principle to our lives? We answer all these questions and more this week on Fortitude in Truth.

This week, we unpack the final Sola, which is by no means the least important. Scripture is full of references ascribing glory to God and Him alone. Join us as we delve into the history and Bible to find out what it really means to live Soli Deo Gloria.

Join us this week as we explore Solus Christus. While the Reformers certainly believed this, this belief can be traced directly back to Scripture.

Join us as we take a look at the biblical precedence of Sola Gratia. Grace alone is how God chose to save us, not by any work that we could do. All our righteousness is as filthy rags and could never merit what the law requires for salvation. But, thanks be to God who delivered us from this body of death.

Another week, another Sola. Sola Fide, faith alone, is a strong teaching of Scripture that is applicable to everyday life. Listen along as we dissect the history and biblical teachings of Sola Fide.

Scripture is sufficient and authoritative. Join us as we explore the history, theology, and Scriptural accuracy of this doctrine. There is much that can be learned from Scripture in light of this, and even more that is meant to be applied to everyday life.

In light of our recent discussions on the attributes of God, we felt it fitting to turn to history and unpack the "Solas." In this episode, we give a brief overview and history. In the coming weeks, we will deal with one individually, hoping that you can take the principles and apply them to your life.

It's 2025, and we are back and ready to go. Building on our previous discussion of God's attributes, this week, we will discuss the "Problem of Evil" and how to deal with it.

This week, we attempt to describe the Trinity. Assuredly, this is not an easy task. There are some things about the Trinity that are plain in Scripture, and other things that are left a mystery (incomprehensible). However, we must avoid heresy, and cling to what is true, and embrace what we do not understand. Our God is three in one.

This week, we delve further into the attributes of God that we are meant to emulate: veracity, benevolence, righteousness, persistence, love, and mercy.

From our families to yours, we want to wish you a happy Thanksgiving Day. We all have much to be thankful for, but none greater than our undeserved salvation.

This week, we introduce the communicable attributes of God, the attributes that we are meant to emulate. We also discuss His graciousness, His justice, His goodness, and His Holiness.

This week we address the "omnis" of God. He is all-powerful, all-wise, all-knowing, and ever-present. All of these are interrelated to one another, as well as to all His other attributes.

In this episode, Nate and Andrew discuss the aseity, eternalness, immanence, and transcendence of God. Scripture has revealed to us who God is, and we need to continue to study it, understand it, and act accordingly.

Shifting from politics and religion back to God. This episode starts a new series in which we will discuss God's attributes. Understanding who God is is crucial so we can love and worship Him better.

Things often get muddied when discussing OT biblical Israel compared to the modern Nation-States of Israel and America. Scripture can help guide these discussions, providing clarity and refocusing them on what is truly important: Christ.

Voting is certainly a hot topic. In this episode, we may not give you who/what to vote for, but we will undoubtedly help equip you as you seek to reconcile your voting practices to Scripture. This is a complicated topic, and much grace and love must be exercised. We must love God first, but we are also called to love our neighbor (yes, even someone who votes differently from you) as ourselves.

What is American Christian Nationalism? Is it Christian? Is it Dangerous? We answer these questions and more based on the Truth of Scripture.

The political climate in America is heating up. This week, we discuss some major platforms of the major political parties in America, how they relate to our understanding of Scripture, and how to live as a Christian in a "foreign land."

In this episode, Andrew and Nate discuss the implications of being a Christian in a pagan nation/world. We are not called to disobey at every turn, but when the law of the land requires us to disobey God, we must obey God rather than man.

Freedom of Religion is important to many Americans, but is it biblical? And is it our right to defend it as Christians? Should Christians rebel against their government? There are lots of questions and hopefully a few good answers to understand the interactions between Christianity and the government.

What is the mission of the Church? What should guide Christians in times of political and social turmoil and upheaval? We answer these questions and more to help the Church continue to grow in the face of chaos and persecution.

In modern times, Christians are faced with difficult choices regarding family and politics. In these episode, we lay a foundation for further discussion on these issues, guided by the principles set out by Scripture.

In this week's episode, we discuss Dr. Abner Chou's book on biblical hermeneutics. The biblical authors were also exegetes and theologians, and we can learn much from them.

The New Testament writers frequently reference the Old Testament. It is important to understand not only their purpose but also how they interpreted the Old Testament text to arrive at this conclusion.
