Effectual Calling w/ Paul Woo | Redemption Accomplished and Applied (3)

Effectual Calling w/ Paul Woo | Redemption Accomplished and Applied (3)

In this episode of our series on John Murray's Redemption Accomplished and Applied, Nate Shannon and Paul Woo explore the doctrine of effectual calling and its place in the application of redemption. What distinguishes the universal call of the gospel from God's effectual call to salvation? Why does Murray insist that calling is a sovereign act of God, and how does this preserve both the grace of God and the freedom of the believer? Along the way, the discussion touches on the order of salvation, union with Christ, the Father’s role in effectual calling, the relationship between calling and regeneration, and the biblical foundation for evangelism in Reformed theology. As Murray reminds us, the application of redemption begins with God's powerful summons, bringing sinners into fellowship with Christ and all the saving benefits found in him alone.

On the Nature and Kingdom of God w/ Harrison Perkins

This episode of the Westminster Podcast features Harrison Perkins in conversation with Nate Shannon, exploring Perkins’ scholarly work on James Ussher and a newly released volume of his previously unpublished theological manuscripts. The discussion traces Perkins’ journey into church history and highlights Ussher’s significance as a Reformed theologian deeply engaged in preaching, catechesis, and historical polemics against Rome, particularly in the context of the Reformation in Ireland. Drawing from newly translated archival sources, Perkins presents Ussher as a model of doctrinal clarity and pastoral faithfulness, demonstrating how consistent theological commitments shaped his ministry across diverse and turbulent contexts, including the English Civil War. The episode underscores the enduring importance of doctrinal preaching, the integration of theology and pastoral ministry, and the value of recovering historical voices like Ussher for the life of the modern church.

Apocalyptic Vision and Enduring Faith: The Book of Daniel w/ Iain Duguid (Pt. 2)

In this second episode on Daniel, Nate Shannon and Ian Duguid turn to the book’s apocalyptic visions, exploring how they reshape our understanding of history, suffering, and God’s ultimate purposes. Far from offering speculative timelines, Daniel’s visions reveal a world marked by escalating opposition to God’s people, yet firmly under the sovereign rule of the Ancient of Days. In the midst of confusion, fear, and unanswered questions, the message is clear: the kingdom belongs to the Son of Man, and faithfulness, however costly, will not be in vain.
