I’m gonna take some time here to plug the best Christian radio station in existence right now, running on the web. It’s a tremendous resource for the thinking Christian and anyone else that wants to connect with the historic Church. That would be Chris Rosebrough’s Pirate Christian Radio internet radio station.
Now PCR is primarily dominated by confessional LCMS Lutherans but more programs keep getting added to the lineup, like Michael Spencer, the famed Internet Monk as he journeys on to the American evangelical wilderness and Two Words, a program done by conservative Anglicans/Episcopalians. The centerpiece program, Issues Etc., is quite possibly the best Christian talk radio program in existence. Theology, history, and doctrine all from a traditional Lutheran point of view.
This isn’t the same sort Christian radio that you’ll find panning through the lower reaches of your FM dial in your car. This is weighty, theologically heavy, doctrinally meaty, Biblically anchored programming that hits on a range of issues with a variety of guests. You won’t hear praise music, but you’ll probably hear some hymns from time to time, especially if you listen to Time Out.
For all intents and purposes I used to be evangelically minded on certain topics and issues and this radio station reintroduced and reconnected me with historic Biblical Christianity. I owe quite a bit to this internet radio station. It was programs like the The God Whisperers, Table Talk Radio, and Radical Grace that showed me what being a Christian was and brought me to my knees in repentance of the modern evangelicalism I had swallowed. The beautiful, freeing simplicity Gospel that told me that I don’t have to do battle on every hill in the culture war, that many of these issues are confusing, as Luther called it, the Two Kingdoms.
I urge you to have a listen, and if you like what you hear consider donating because Issues Etc. is, and PCR itself soon, will be funded by the listeners be as well.
