Customer Reviews
This Podcast is one of my favorites!!
The title says it all. I listen to James White, CARM, RC Sproul and yes they are some tough hitters and they are great and wonderful teachers, but I would say Chris Date is rising to the ranks and if he continues this ministry He will most certainly join their ranks. Chris knows how to take tough concepts such as Reformed Theology, such as Preterism and the like and to bring it to terms that are for the layman in a nice and relaxed way so that the listener feels comfortable and optimal for teaching. He has great teaching abilities and a gentle heart, these 2 things are not only what the Church is missing and needs, but these are 2 effective characteristics of a Godly man filled with the Holy Spirit. I encourage everyone to listen to this podcast!
should be required listening for all Christians
Chris' podcast is very insightful, well thought out, and smart. Most importantly, it really makes you think. You can tell a lot of effort has been put into his research. It's obvious that he firmly stands behind what he is trying to convey to the rest of us who may have been led away from the truth of the Gospel. Thanks for putting me straight, Chris. Keep up the good work.
Time to get out of the pews!
This podcast has been food to my soul. Chris Date has the ability explain sometimes complex Biblical doctrines, and make them understandable. The podcast has challenged me to rely less on personal feelings and more on sound Biblical comprehension. I've learned more in just a few weeks than I have in years. Very edifying. Thanks Brother.
