Welcome to Season 2 of Tyrannus Hall Podcast.

We’re starting the season by asking the question: “Is being a conservative church harming the spread of the gospel in your city? Can a biblically conservative church really reach the broader community with the good news of Jesus Christ?

The hosts of this podcast are pastors of confessional churches. They pastor churches that stand foursquare on the legacy of the Reformation: salvation by faith alone; in Christ alone; holding to the Scriptures alone as the divinely inspired infallible Word of God.

Our guest today is Kevin Flatt. Kevin is a professor of history at Redeemer University, a self-consciously Reformed university in Hamilton. He teaches (among others) upper-level history courses like: Christianity in the Modern World and History and the City of God

Five years ago, along with David Haskell, a sociologist at Wilfrid Laurier University, he published an important research paper on why some churches are growing and others have declining memberships. Their conclusions may surprise you,

Their paper, “Theology Matters,” was published in a peer-reviewed journal Review of Religious Research, in December 2016. This paper had the attention of Macleans Magazine, The Globe and Mail, and The Guardian. The Christian Press also reported on this paper and analyzed in Outlook and World. As well, Al Mohler discussed it on his podcast The Briefing.
