このコンテンツについて

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.

  • Speech, Sight, Sacrifice: Signs of a Healthy Church

    In a previous episode, Peter, Pastor Nate, and Kyle discussed how we measure church health and vitality. What does it mean that a church is healthy? What does it look like for it to be sick? They continue this exploration by providing several signs for what makes a church healthy. Such as,

    - The congregation's words are more informed by the Word than the world. They speak less like Moabites and more like the ancient Israelites. The Pharisees don't have their tongue but the Prince of Peace.

    - The congregation's eyes see correctly. The church isn't seen as a country club that they attend on the weekends but their entire outlook is one in which they see this as their covenantal family.

    - The congregation's time is prioritized rightly. Those who work 40-60 hours take off the week to help with VBS. Those who encourage their kids to play sports don't let them miss a Lord's Day service.

    When grammar (speech), perception (sight), and action (sacrifice) are rightly ordered, a healthy church is around the corner. Join Peter, Pastor Nate, and Kyle as they break this down and more.

  • Dr. John Gerstner on John 3:16 | Part 2
    2025/06/20

    This is part two of a three-part series Dr. John Gerstner, long-time professor at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary, gave at Beverly Heights Presbyterian Church in 1984 on the riches of John 3:16.

    In this episode, Dr. Gerstner discusses the need for apologetics, the insult that is evangelism, the condemnation that can come through missions, and how the road to hell is paved with pluralism, gentility, and tolerance.

    Dr. Gerstner reminds us that we were there when the Son was crucified. Except He wasn’t our Lord then. He was our enemy. And we weren’t over on the sidelines crying. We were driving the nails, slaughtering Him, committing the crime.

    And “God had no obligation to you or to me to present the gospel. We were fit for damnation. Nevertheless, He sent His one and only Son to perish for us.”

  • No, You're Unhealthy: Taking Stock of Church Vitality and Effectiveness
    2025/06/06

    “I told my doctor he was counting my heart rate incorrectly.”

    You ever heard that before?

    Yeah, me neither.

    People who know, know, and we trust them.


    “It’s all about perception.” “Your church is unhealthy.” “We’re just trying to help.”

    You ever heard that before?

    Yeah, me, too. All the time.

    People who don’t know are always vying for your ear.


    What does it mean that a church is healthy? What does it look like for it to be sick? When it’s sick, is it flatlining, or does it just need a few days to recover? Does it still have the power of Jesus in its blood? Is it just malnourished, famished, or parched?

    In this episode, Peter, Pastor Nate, and Kyle talk about how we measure church health and vitality. Our Triune God likes lines and numbers, but are the lines we are drawing and the math we are doing consistent with His? How do our evaluative measures measure up to His? Maybe our scientific ruler is way sharper or shorter than His?

    Perhaps lot of numbers aren’t always a sign of health or strength. One doesn’t seem very much to us, but that’s all it took for a Savior to accomplish redemption. Twelve doesn’t seem like very much, but that’s all it took to spread the gospel across the globe.


    Maybe death is actually life.
