Recovering Fundamentalist Podcast

What does the Bible say about gender? Do we have to be divided when it comes to this important topic? Where does the Bible start? Jen Wilkin joins JC, Brian, and Nate to discuss the importance of starting with Scripture and extending kindness and compassion across the spectrum of beliefs. Sameness, distinction, roles, and much more will be discussed in this powerful episode. 

Bullies and liberals share something in common. Neither represent the Biblical view of Gender Roles in the Church! The fellas dive into the Complementarian and Egalitarian controversy that divides so many in the church. What is the Biblical role of a woman? How is a man supposed to lead his family? Is he supposed to lead his family? If so, does this mean women are second rate humans? There are ans...

What does the Bible say about Homosexuality? The world wants us to celebrate it, legalists want us to condemn sinners, but Jesus had compassion on sinners and He came to save them. Does your church have a Biblical view of marriage and sexuality? In this episode, JC, Brian, and Nate talk about the Image of God and how that factors into the sexual ethics conversation, the importance of having a clea...

Are you a part of a Gospel-centered, New Testament Church? If not, you should find one. We are not proponents of church-hopping or church-shopping, but we believe you owe it to God, yourself, and your family to be in a healthy local Church! What does that look like? What are the non-negotiables of a local church? The answers are found in Scripture and we all need to know what they are. 

The boys are back in the studio and ready to go! This episode is about Resolutions. Some hate them, some break them, and some still think they are a good idea. JC, Brian, and Nate talk about the importance of having goals that are focused on God and that leave a legacy for future generations.   

The Christmas Story is the greatest story ever told because it is the story of Jesus coming to rescue us from our sin. This is the final episode of 2021 and we wanted to end the year with the Gospel. Nathan Cravatt is a pastor who loves to teach and preach the Bible. You will be blessed by his perspective on the Christmas Story in this episode.

JC is sharing the heart of the Christmas story in this sermon he shared recently with his college ministry at the church where he serves as the NextGen and College Pastor. His passion for Jesus is so evident in this sermon and we pray that it will make you love Jesus more and open your heart to experience Emmanuel, God with us, this Holiday Season. 

Brian Edwards has been called every name in the book, from liberal, to compromiser, and much worse. This has not stopped him from devoting his life to proclaiming the powerful Gospel of Jesus Christ. This single sermon answers a lifetime of lies brought against Brian. While his detractors have spent their time taking offerings, stretching out altar calls, and twisting Scripture, he has shepherded...

The internets crashed and our software was affected. Not to worry, we called an audible and ended up having a great discussion. We are pausing the Taboo Topics and will pick back up in January. 

JC, Brian, and Nathan talk about the implications of Pastoral disqualification and the possibility of being restored to ministry in this episode. 

What does the Bible say about pornography? How big of a problem is it? Is there hope and healing? Billy Mills shares his powerful story of redemption and the calling on his life after his experience with pornography that almost destroyed his life, marriage, and family. 

JC, Brian, and Nate go live to candidly discuss the Facebook Group and the RFP Network. This episode was complete with a live comment section on YouTube. Spoiler Alert: The Union Stands!

Dr. James White and Dr. Stephen Boyce join the RFP in honor of Reformation Day to discuss the lasting impact it has left on the world. God always purifies His church and God uses flawed men to accomplish great things. We have much to learn from history, positive and negative, if we are to avoid pitfalls and gain wisdom.

Bob and Kelly Radank tell the rest of their story. The hero of their story is God and He is using the trials we face for our good and His glory.

When Culture and Conviction collide, we should turn to Scripture to find the solution. Scripture is our final authority and it overrides culture and forms our convictions. When we use any other criteria, we either slip off into license or legalism. Mike Peters and Bob and Kelly Radank share their powerful experiences as missionaries who experienced the collision of culture and conviction in Part 4...

JC and Nate interview Michael and Anthony from the Beers and Bible Podcast on this episode. Brian is missing in action and they are not sure where to find him. Nevertheless, 2 of the 3 hosts continue on in Week 3 of the Alcohol Series with a few guys who have experienced the pressure from the establishment about their personal views on Alcohol and their desire to align with the Biblical view. 

Our episode on alcohol stirred up a lot of mixed emotions! We are following up with a discussion on the clearly forbidden sin of Drunkenness. Just because the Bible doesn't condemn drinking alcohol, does that mean everyone should drink? Are there good reasons to avoid alcohol altogether? When does drinking alcohol become a sin? All this and more on this episode of the RFP. 

Fundamentalism has been Teetotally Opposed to Alcohol since the Prohibition, but... what does the Bible say about Alcohol? Is it a sin to drink it? Is it a sin to brew it? Is it a sin to sell it? Is moderation a "Weaker" position born of compromise? It's about time the RFP dealt with this topic and we have a feeling this will extend for multiple episodes. 

Today, we continue with #RFPFam Stories from The Bourbon Meetup. This is one of our shortest episodes, but it is one of the most powerful because the stories of redemption are why we do what we do. To God be the glory! 

Some of the #RFPFam share their stories at The Bourbon Meetup. The weight of the hurt experienced in the IFB, the extent of God's healing power, and the depth of gospel knowledge is on full display in the stories from those whose lives have been touched by the ministry of the RFP. 

Here is a little taste of the Bourbon Meetup where we gathered with over 100 of our #RFPFam to enjoy some food, fellowship, and fun (alliteration comes at no extra cost). Multiple hosts from the RFP Network of Podcasts sat down together to answer questions and share their stories of struggle and success on this journey that has become the RFP Network. 

We wanted to share a talk from the Michigan Meetup with you. Pastor Josh Combs shares his experience within legalism and points us back to the Gospel. 

What are The Essentials of The Gospel? JC, Brian, and Nate dig deep into the doctrine of Salvation and clearly lay out the core message of the Gospel. Our eternal souls are dependent upon this message that was proclaimed by Christ and the Apostles and we can not afford to get it wrong. This is a good episode to start taking notes. 

They're back... After their summer sabbatical, the debate, and an incredible job by the RFP Network, the boys are ready to recap what has been going on and move into this next season of ministry. This week, they are talking about the Gospel, which is the reason the podcast was started in the first place. (Oh... and there is a new intro!)

Today, The Preachers Kids Podcast (with Jon Groves and Eli Blevins) are stepping to host our last week of Sabbatical. We believe this episode will resonate with so many of our listeners, as many of us grew up as PK’s.
