Heidelminicast: Believe Now

November 12, 2026 · 17 min

Show notes

n this episode, Brad explores the difficulties Presbyterian and Reformed elders encounter when interviewing prospective members from experiential evangelical backgrounds. These individuals often focus on identifying the exact moment of their conversion for assurance, rather than relying on their current faith in Christ. Referencing R. Scott Clark's critique of Jonathan Edwards and a hymn that highlights subjective experience, Brad emphasizes that true assurance is rooted in the objective gospel, a continuous trust in Christ, and active participation in the church.
