Show notes

We believe that the balance, or as we call it the "radical middle" between Word and Spirit isn't found through treating them like opposing forces. Rather, it's found through pursuing both fully and deeply. We want the full counsel of the Word of God. We want you to be biblically literate, equipped to rightly divide the Word for yourself. We also want the Holy Spirit to move in power, unhindered and unquenched in our lives, and we want you to see His miraculous power at work.
It's easy to feel theologically homeless when you have a hunger for the Word, an appreciation for church history and liturgy, yet see the lack of spiritual depth in many churches. We also know how stifling it can feel to know there is more to experience of God's power in your life, but have so few balanced voices to learn from. The Remnant Radio was born out of our own hunger for challenging conversations, theological depth, and a desire to experience all that God has for us!

The Theocast & Grace Reformed Network Controversy: Interview with Jon Moffit & Doug Van Dorn Dec 17, 2025

Show notes

Can theological debates destroy Christian unity? In this raw, unfiltered conversation, we sit down with Jon Moffitt (Theocast) and Doug Van Dorn (Reformed Fringe) to discuss one of the more controversial splits in the Reformed world—and what it reveals about how we handle disagreement in the body of Christ.
Jon and Doug open up about their journey exploring the spiritual realm, the divine council, and the angel of the Lord—topics that sparked fierce opposition within their own theological circles. What began as thoughtful biblical exploration turned into accusations of heresy, demands for public repentance, and ultimately, painful separation from longtime friends and ministry partners.
This isn't just another theology debate. It's a sobering look at how pride, fear, and miscommunication can fracture Christian unity, even among believers who share the same core convictions. Jon and Doug discuss the Grace Reformed Network controversy, the role of Michael Heiser's work in Reformed circles, and why talking about angels and spiritual warfare became so divisive.
We dive deep into questions that matter: How should Christians handle theological disagreements? When does doctrinal clarity become doctrinal gatekeeping? And how do we fight for truth without destroying the very unity Christ prayed for ?
Whether you're Reformed, charismatic, or somewhere in between, this conversation offers crucial lessons about humility, spiritual warfare, and the cost of standing for what you believe. The real enemy isn't the brother who disagrees with you—it's the one who wants to see the church divided.
Join Joshua Lewis, Michael Miller, Jon Moffitt, and Doug Van Dorn for a conversation about Christian theology, biblical interpretation, spiritual warfare, church unity, and what happens when good men disagree.

Can a Prophet Ever Be Wrong? Responding to Corey Minor's Critique Dec 09, 2025

The Untold History Of Women In The Assemblies Of God: Interview With Dr. Joy Qualls Dec 03, 2025

Show notes

Joshua Lewis sits down with Dr. Joy Qualls—Pentecostal scholar, Assemblies of God minister, and author to explore the history, theology, and lived experience of women in Pentecostal leadership. From early Scandinavian pietist revivals and Azusa Street to modern Assemblies of God policy, they trace how Pentecostal theology of Holy Spirit empowerment collided with institutional respectability, evangelical politics, and unspoken “invisible fences” around women’s roles in church leadership.
Along the way, they unpack stories of forgotten Pentecostal heroines like Rachel Sislo, Amanda Benedict, May Eleanor Fry, and Blanch Elizabeth Britton—women who planted churches, prayed in revival, confronted injustice, and literally died on the road preaching the gospel. They also explore how AG policy has officially affirmed women in ministry since 1935, even while local practice has often lagged behind, creating dissonance for called women in Pentecostal churches.
This episode will challenge both complementarian and egalitarian assumptions. It raises hard questions about ecclesiology, spiritual gifts vs. church offices, spiritual warfare over calling, and how movements lose their prophetic edge when they chase institutional respectability.
This conversation provides historical context, theological categories, and pastoral wisdom for navigating the debate of women in ministry without capitulating to cultural pressure on either side.

Fully God, Fully Man: Understanding the Hypostatic Union Dec 02, 2025

Show notes

Jesus Christ, the Messiah: fully God and fully man. But how did he live as a human submitted to the Father, perform miracles by the Holy Spirit, and choose not to exercise divine prerogatives at will?
In this episode, we unpack the Chalcedonian Definition of the Hypostatic Union, exploring its historical significance and how it protects against heresy. We explore how this doctrine affects our understanding of Jesus’s miracles, the Spirit-Empowered Ministry, and the ongoing debate surrounding kenotic heresy. Learn how Jesus, as both God and Man, performed miracles and lived a life of Spirit-Empowered Ministry.
The Chalcedonian definition of hypostatic union states that Jesus Christ is one person in whom two distinct natures—divine and human—are united without confusion, change, division, or separation. Each nature retains its own properties, and both are unified in one "person" or "subsistence" (\(hypostasis\)), meaning Christ is both fully God and fully man, not a mixture of the two.
One person, two natures: Christ is one person (the eternal Son of God), who is both fully divine and fully human.
Without confusion or change: The divine and human natures are not merged into a single new nature. The incarnation did not diminish Christ's divinity; it was not a change from what he was.
Without division or separation: The two natures are not split into two separate individuals or persons. They are held together in one unique person, the Lord Jesus Christ.
Propriety of each nature is preserved: The unique attributes of each nature remain. For example, Christ's divinity is not bloodied, but as a human, he has a body and soul.
One subsistence: The two natures "concur" in a single person and subsistence, a concept that safeguarded against heresies that separated the natures or blended them together.

Tired of fake prayer? Discover the real, raw heart of connecting with God beyond perfection or performance!
Want a deeper prayer life? We’re exploring how prayer is often misunderstood as a performance rather than an honest encounter with God.

Can True Prophets Miss? Nov 19, 2025

Show notes

Does a single wrong prophecy make you a false prophet? Cessationists argue yes, but we’re examining examples in Acts that challenge this view.
We’ll dig into Scripture to understand how we should respond to prophecy in a way that remains biblical and faithful without quenching the Spirit. We’ll critique cessationist arguments and also offer guidance for continuationists on staying sober-minded (1 Thess. 5:19-22), testing prophecies against Scripture, and avoiding blending emotions with God’s voice to prevent harm.
