  Benjamin Quinn sits down with Jono Darville to discuss his book, Life in Its Original Language: A Biblical Guide to Being Truly Human. Jono shares how suffering, recovery, conversion, and ministry shaped the book’s central question: what does it mean to live as a truly human person under God? Together, they trace that question through Scripture, relationships, vocation, and the church’s calling to help people live according to God’s design.

  Why Most Churches Get Blindsided by Legal Problems (with Don Ziel and John Basie) – EP 245

  Sep 18, 202626 min

  Benjamin Quinn hosts Don Ziel and John Basie of Alliance Defending Freedom to talk about how churches and ministry leaders can lead with stronger legal foundations. The conversation focuses on why legal preparedness matters, where ministries most often get caught off guard, and how ADF is building tools to help pastors, seminaries, and churches act with both confidence and courage. In this episode, Don and John explain why church law should be treated as stewardship, not just administration, and why proactive preparation can prevent avoidable conflict. They also preview ADF’s Church and Ministry Alliance and a new seminary curriculum designed to build legal competency for future ministry leaders. - Website: cfc.sebts.edu - Contact us: cfc.sebts.edu/about/contact-us/ - Support the work of the Center: cfc.sebts.edu/about/give/ All opinions and views expressed by guest speakers are solely their own.

  Pastoring for Monday: Helping Congregations Connect Faith and Work (With Matt Rusten) – EP 244

  Sep 11, 202644 min

  Benjamin Quinn hosts Matt Rusten, president of Made to Flourish and editor-in-chief of Common Good Magazine, for a conversation about why the faith and work conversation belongs in ministry, not just in workplace theology books. They focus on the Sunday to Monday gap, the formation of ministry leaders, and how pastors can help people see their work as part of discipleship. We discuss how ordinary jobs, vocational wounds, and work transitions shape people’s spiritual lives, and why preaching, small groups, and student ministry all need to speak more directly to work. Matt also explains the pastoral vision behind his book, Pastoring for Monday, and offers practical ways to connect the gospel to everyday labor. - Website: cfc.sebts.edu - Contact us: cfc.sebts.edu/about/contact-us/ - Support the work of the Center: cfc.sebts.edu/about/give/ All opinions and views expressed by guest speakers are solely their own.
