Matthew Everhard

In this video, we will discuss the question, "Why study theology at all?" After all, isn't it divisive? Doesn't it incite pride in the learned? Doesn't it cause more problems than it solves?

Far too often, Christians take on a defeatist mentality when it comes to our fight against sin. Here, we continue our expository series through the book of Romans. Today we come to a critical text in our fight against indwelling sin. In a series of powerful verses, Paul argues that sin no longer has any dominion or lordship over our lives.

In this video, we are going to look at the history and development of the Reformed catechisms. I hope you enjoy this deep dive into these wonderful instructional tools for helping grow our faith and discipleship in Jesus Christ.

In this video, we will explore whether human beings have freewill. Some (such as Pelagians, Semi-Pelagians, and Arminians) argue yes, but Calvinists have a more nuanced answer. Let's study this topic!

In this video, I will share several reasons why your church MUST be led by competent, faithful, men. This is the Biblical model, and one that cannot be avoided without peril.

In this episode, I will share several red flags that I perceive among so-called evangelical churches. If any of these markers are present, it would be best to "mark and avoid" these churches. Watch out!

In this episode, I will disabuse us of the simple notion that baptizo means immerse. Of course it does, very often, but not exclusively. Basically, the rule is "Baptizo always means immerse except when it doesn't -- and that is quite often!" Here, I will take us through twenty-some examples where baptizo cannot mean immerse.

In this episode, I will provide a short, twenty-minute primer into the meaning and background of "Reformed Theology." What is it? Who believes it? And what are its major teachings?

In this video, we will consider Jonathan Edwards' view of the millennium. You may know that Edwards was considered a postmillennialist, and believed that Revelation 20 should be interpreted as a distinct stage in redemptive history in which the Gospel has large-scale and global success. Here we will analyze several of his personal 'Miscellanies' on this subject.

In this sermon, we continue the theme of Federal Headship from the previous sermon in Romans 5. In all of the ways that Adam failed as our first federal head, Christ must succeed. Here, we consider seven ways that Jesus Christ repairs and breaks the curse of Genesis 3:14-19.

In this long-form interview, I talk to Darryl Burling, the author and creator of the Biblical Mastery Academy system for studying the Biblical languages of Greek and Hebrew. Since he is from New Zealand, we discuss the Lord of the Rings, as well as his translation principles and favorite Bible translations.

In this sermon from Romans 5:12-16, we explore the critical doctrine of Federal Headship. This is a foundational idea to Covenant Theology. This text in Romans is richly theological, and explores the doctrines of original sin, total depravity, typological interpretation, and the Federal Headship of Adam and Christ.

In this sermon, we continue our series in the book of Romans. Today we come to a critical text that explores the power of the death of Christ on the cross. God demonstrates or proves His love for us here at the cross of Calvary. We look at Christ's intent in His death, the efficacious nature of the atonement, and its reconciling power in bringing us into a state of grace and forgiveness with G...

In today's episode, I will be discussing one of the great missionaries of all time, and a Covenanter Presbyterian at that! His name was John G. Paton and he was a courageous missionary to the South Sea Islands, attempting to bring the Gospel to the cannibals. Yes, literal, flesh-eating heathens. You will never believe what happens next!

In this sermon, we press on in our series on the book of Romans. After describing our depraved condition in chapters 1-2 and articulating the power of the Gospel in chapters 3-4, Paul now begins to unfold the incredible blessings of being in Christ, saved by justification through faith in Christ. Romans 5:1-5 is an incredible text which extols the comforts and blessings of being in a state of grac...

In this sermon, we move into the fourth chapter of our exposition of Romans. Here, Paul is going to continue to work deeper and deeper into the Gospel truth of justification by grace through faith alone. In this text, the Apostle Paul is going to use both Abraham (4:1-5) and David (4:6-8) as examples from the Old Testament to illustrate of power of justification sola fide.

In this episode, I take a look at the last Covenanter martyr, a young man by the name of James Renwick. He was one of the Scottish Presbyterians who were horribly persecuted during the "Killing Times" in Scotland, persecuted for holding illegal worship services in the fields called conventicles. Renwick was sent away to be educated and then came back to Scotland to lead the resistance pa...

In this sermon, we continue our expository series through the book of Romans. In this paragraph, the Apostle Paul makes a few clarifications in relation to the Gospel, specifically by commenting on the nature of faith. We take this opportunity to do a deep dive into the concept of true saving faith, and how it relates to a transformed life.

In this sermon, we continue our series in Romans. Today, we enter what I believe is one of the most important passages in all of Romans, much less the whole Bible. Here Paul introduces concepts such as faith, grace, justification, and notably touches on the concept of "propitiation." Here we will see how Jesus's death on the cross propitiates the wrath of God.

In this episode, we take an extended look at Solomon Stoddard who is the grandfather of Jonathan Edwards. He was a renowned preacher and revivalist who saw five "harvests" or awakenings in his long tenure at the Northampton Church.

In this episode, we return to the life and ministry of Jonathan Edwards, focusing on his mission to the Stockbridge Mahican Indians from 1751 to 1757.

In this episode, I discuss a number of problems that preachers encounter when preaching including sermons that are too short, too long, too boring, or too manuscript-dependent. Hope this helps!

In this episode, I explain what we mean when we speak of the eschatological system known as "optimistic amillennialism."
