  • Courage in the Ordinary

    Episode 1625 Aired May 29, 2022

    Have you noticed that words like “extreme” and “revolutionary” have ironically become part of our “ordinary” vocabulary, even in the world of contemporary Christianity? We’re constantly being encouraged to “transform the world,” to pursue “radical discipleship,” or simply to do “big things for Jesus.” But what is the cost of this continual use of superlatives? In this classic episode of White Horse Inn, originally aired in 2013, Michael Horton, Kim Riddlebarger, Rod Rosenbladt, and Ken Jones sit down with Tish Harrison Warren to discuss this issue and point to a recovery of “ordinary discipleship” in a world of hype.

  • Soli Deo Gloria

    Episode 1608 Aired January 30, 2022

    According to Robert Schuller, the problem with the reformation was that it was God-centered rather than man-centered. We live in an age of self-esteem and self-help. Therapy has triumphed over theology. On this episode of the White Horse Inn our hosts help to recover the reformation slogan, “to God alone be the glory.” (originally aired 01-27-91)

  • Justice & Mercy

    Episode 1607 Aired January 23, 2022

    Scripture teaches that God is just. He must punish sin. On this episode of the White Horse Inn our hosts help us to understand that God’s mercy must be understood against the background of his justice and wrath in the crucifixion of Jesus Christ (originally aired 01-20-91).

  • The Sovereignty of God

    Episode 1606 Aired January 16, 2022

    Scripture teaches that God is sovereign. Yet many struggle both to understand and reconcile God’s sovereignty and human responsibility. On this episode of the White Horse Inn our hosts explain that God’s sovereignty taught in scripture helps us to recognize God’s transcendent glory reflected in his works of providence and salvation (originally aired 01-13-91).

  • The Holiness of God

    Episode 1605 Aired January 9, 2022

    We live in an age where God is trivialized. God is seen as friend, one whom I can have a personal relationship with and although God is a friend of sinners, has the church lost sight of the significance of this truth? Has the Evangelical Church taken God’s kindness for granted? On this episode of the White Horse Inn our hosts discuss the Holiness of God showing that though God is a friend to sinners who have trusted in Jesus for their salvation, God is still Holy and wrathful against sin. It is only when we recognize that God is holy that we can see his amazing grace toward sinners who trust in Jesus (originally aired 01-06-91).

  • Reforming the Church

    Episode 1604 Aired January 2, 2022 Listen Now →

    On this classic episode of the White Horse Inn, Michael Horton, Kim Riddlebarger and Rod Rosenbladt discuss many of the problems facing contemporary Christianity and call for a return to the insights of the sixteenth-century Protestant Reformation. In particular they focus on the five “solas”: Scripture alone, Christ alone, grace alone, faith alone, and glory to God alone. This episode was the eighth program of our weekly live broadcast, which began on KKLA in Los Angeles in early November of 1990.

  • The Theology of Christmas Carols

    Episode 1602 Aired December 19, 2021

    Have you ever taken the time to reflect on the meaning of the lyrics found in the all the Christmas carols heard on the radio and in countless stores this time of year? On this episode of White Horse Inn, the hosts will do just that as they consider songs such as “Jingle Bells” and “Santa Claus is Coming to Town,” and more traditional carols like “Away in a Manger” and “Silent Night.” Finally, they’ll explore the rich theology expressed in the world’s first Christmas carol recorded in the first chapter of the Gospel of Luke (originally aired 12/18/16).

  • Crossless Christianity

    Episode 1561 Aired March 7, 2021

    “Christless Christianity” continues to be a problem in many churches around the world. Too often, though, even in places where Jesus’ name is frequently mentioned, he’s presented as a divine therapist or motivational speaker who encourages us to “be all we can be.” In other cases, he’s a kind of political organizer who calls us to various degrees of social activism. What seems to be missing, however, is the singular focus of the Apostle Paul who wrote to the Corinthians saying, “I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified” (originally aired 01-13-08).

  • Radical Pietism: The Core of Liberalism
