In an age where “church” is often reduced to a building, a brand, or a weekly event, Episode 2 of Sola Veritas asks a foundational question: What is the Church — and what is it not?

In this episode, Justin, Nathan, and Matt challenge the common assumption that the Church is merely a man-made institution or a voluntary religious community. Instead, we recover the biblical vision of the Church as God’s covenantal people, grounded in Scripture, shaped by history, and ruled by Christ Himself.

We explore the distinction between the visible and invisible Church, asking why believers must belong to the imperfect visible church even though salvation belongs to the invisible body of the elect. From there, we examine the Church as a covenantal community, confronting the modern impulse toward isolation, consumer Christianity, and casual commitment.

Finally, we center everything on Christ as the Head and Cornerstone of His Church — not a distant figurehead, but the living King who actively rules, sustains, and governs His people today. By rooting ecclesiology in Christ’s kingship, we show why the Church’s identity must be shaped by Scripture and history, not cultural trends or institutional innovation.

In a cultural moment marked by confusion, compromise, and spiritual disconnection, few doctrines are more neglected—or more misunderstood—than the doctrine of the Church.

In this opening episode of Season 2, Justin, Matt, and Nathan make the case that the Church is not a religious accessory, a social organization, or a tool for personal improvement, but the blood-purchased people of Christ. As secular pressure and theological drift continue to reshape modern Christianity, the need for a clear, confessional, and biblically grounded vision of the Church has never been greater.

We discuss:

• Why cultural definitions of “church” are insufficient • What is lost when church becomes optional or individualized • The biblical purpose of the Church—worship, Word, ordinances, and discipleship • The danger of replacing exegetical preaching with therapeutic or pragmatic substitutes • How confessions and creeds guard the Church from compromise disguised as progress • Why a high view of Christ necessarily demands a high view of His Church

This season is not about reinventing the Church—it’s about recovering her.

Join us as we begin a season devoted to the glory of Christ and the good of His people.

In this episode of Sola Veritas, Justin, Nathan, and Matt sit down for the Season 1 Finale to discuss one of the most foundational—and at times, most misunderstood—truths of Scripture: the sovereignty of God.

From the rise and fall of nations to the beating of every human heart, nothing escapes His rule. But what does it really mean for God to be sovereign? How do we reconcile divine sovereignty with human responsibility? And why does this doctrine, far from being cold or fatalistic, bring unshakable comfort to the believer?

Join Justin, Nathan, and Matt as they trace this doctrine through the pages of Scripture and history—exploring how God’s absolute reign shapes our worship, strengthens our suffering, and anchors our hope.

In this episode of the Sola Veritas Podcast, Justin, Nathan, and Matt explore the rock-solid, unshakable truth that God does not — and cannot — change. In a world of shifting values, unstable emotions, and constant cultural turbulence, the doctrine of God’s immutability stands like a fortress for the believer. Justin, Nathan, and Matt unpack the biblical foundation for God’s unchanging nature: His character, His promises, His purposes, and His covenant love. If God could change, He could improve (meaning He wasn’t perfect) or decline (meaning He couldn’t be trusted). But the God of Scripture declares, “I the LORD do not change” — and that truth secures every believer’s hope. We tackle common misunderstandings: • What about verses where God “repents” or “relents”? • Does prayer matter if God’s plans don’t change? • How does Christ’s incarnation fit with God’s immutability?

In this episode of the Sola Veritas Podcast, Justin, Nathan, and Matt explore one of the most awe-inspiring truths about God: His omnipresence. God is not bound by space, time, or limitation — He is everywhere, fully present, always near. Together, they unpack the biblical foundation of God’s omnipresence, showing that His presence is both comforting to the believer and terrifying to the unrepentant.

They discuss how this doctrine reveals God’s transcendence and immanence, why His nearness matters for daily worship and prayer, and how this truth corrects both pantheistic and deistic misunderstandings.

In this episode of the Sola Veritas Podcast, Justin, Nathan, and Matt explore one of the most awe-inspiring attributes of God: His omnipotence. What does it mean that God is all-powerful? How does His sovereign might differ from human strength or authority?

Justin, Nathan, and Matt discuss how Scripture presents God’s power — from creation out of nothing to the resurrection of Christ — and why this doctrine gives believers both confidence and humility. They tackle common misconceptions: If God can do anything, can He make a rock so heavy He can’t lift it? And they examine how divine omnipotence shapes our worship, our prayer life, and our understanding of providence.

Ultimately, the episode reminds listeners that God’s power is not arbitrary or detached — it is holy, wise, and perfectly aligned with His will.

In this episode of the Sola Veritas Podcast, Justin, Nathan, and Matt dive deep into the infinite knowledge of God — His perfect omniscience. God knows all things: every thought, every secret, every moment from eternity past to eternity future. But what does that mean for us as finite, fallen creatures who can hide nothing from His gaze?

They unpack how Scripture reveals God’s exhaustive knowledge — not just of facts and events, but of hearts and motives. They explore how this doctrine brings both comfort and conviction: comfort, because nothing surprises God or falls outside His plan; conviction, because He sees our sin and still extends grace through Christ.

Along the way, they address common questions: Why pray if He already knows our needs? And how does His omniscience magnify His sovereignty and mercy?

In this episode of the Sola Veritas Podcast, Justin, Nathan, and Matt turn to God the Holy Spirit—the giver of life, the seal of our salvation, and the One who applies the finished work of Christ to believers.

They explore the Spirit’s role in creation, regeneration, sanctification, and the life of the church, highlighting how the Spirit works inseparably with the Father and the Son. They address common objections: Is the Spirit merely an impersonal force? Why emphasize the Spirit’s role when Scripture is Christ-centered? Isn’t it enough to say we believe in Jesus without stressing the Spirit’s ongoing work? And how do we respond to misunderstandings of the Spirit’s ministry in spiritual gifts, worship, or assurance?

Far from being an afterthought, the Spirit is the personal presence of God with His people—leading, convicting, empowering, and comforting. Listeners will walk away with a richer grasp of why life in the Spirit is essential to Christian discipleship, worship, and perseverance.
