Keith Foskey: Baptism Isn’t Just Symbolic: The Forgotten Baptist View
In today’s episode, I sit down with Keith Foskey to talk about baptism — what it is, why it matters, and why it is absolutely not optional for followers of Jesus.
We walk through the historic Baptist perspective found in the 1646 London Baptist Confession, a view far richer and more serious than what many modern Baptists hold today. Keith breaks down what early Baptists believed baptism actually does, why they refused to treat it as a throwaway symbol, and how Scripture ties baptism directly to obedience, discipleship, and identification with Christ and His church.
We also address the hard questions:
If baptism doesn’t save, what does it do?
Did early Baptists believe baptism had spiritual significance?
Why do so many churches treat baptism casually?
Can someone truly follow Jesus while refusing baptism?
What happens when churches recover a biblical, historic view of the ordinance?
This is a straightforward, Scripture-centered conversation meant to cut through modern confusion and return to what the Bible — and the early Baptists — actually taught.

SAM STORMS: Faith, Healing, and God’s Sovereignty
This episode features a rich, honest conversation with Dr. Sam Storms on the nature of faith — especially as it relates to healing, spiritual gifts, and God’s sovereignty.
We explore how faith functions in the life of a believer who wants to pursue the power of the Holy Spirit without drifting into Word of Faith teaching or performance-based spirituality.
Topics we cover:
• Biblical faith vs. “faith in faith”
• Why Jesus honored faith in healing — but not as a formula
• How Calvinists should think about healing and miracles
• Faith’s role in prophecy and spiritual gifts
• Handling disappointment when healing doesn’t come
• Living with expectancy while fully trusting God’s sovereign timing
This conversation will challenge, comfort, and strengthen anyone who wants a Spirit-filled life anchored in Scripture.

The Hypostatic Union — How Jesus Is Fully God and Fully Man (with Lee Jones of Redemption Meditations)
What does it really mean that Jesus is both fully God and fully man? How can He be omnipotent and eternal, yet hunger, sleep, and experience pain?
In this episode, Michael sits down with Lee Jones, co-host of the podcast Redemption Meditations, for a deep yet approachable conversation on the hypostatic union — the mystery of Christ’s two natures united in one Person.
We cover:
What the hypostatic union actually means (John 1:14; Philippians 2:6-8)
Why Jesus sometimes seemed to “not know” things (Mark 5:30; Mark 13:32; John 11:11-14)
Whether He laid aside His divine attributes
Why it’s essential to hold His humanity and divinity in perfect balance
And how understanding this truth transforms our faith, worship, and view of salvation
This conversation is packed with insight for beginners and theology pros alike — challenging, clarifying, and deeply encouraging.
