The Christian Call to Be
Salt and Light

(No Matter Our Societal Moment)

CURRENT PROGRAM: August 1, 2026

CURRENT PROGRAM: AUGUST 01, 2026

GUEST: DR. STEPHEN NICHOLS, president, Reformation Bible College

The dictionary defines theology as the study of God and religious belief. It may sound intellectual and academic but in reality everyone has beliefs about God and religion. The real question is whether those beliefs accurately represent God based on the standard—His inspired Word.

Every few years, Ligonier Ministries conducts The State of Theology survey, as they put it, “to take America’s theological temperature, revealing what people actually believe—both outside and inside the church. Our goal is to diagnose prominent errors and to prescribe the cure: the clear teaching of sound doctrine.”The State of Theology survey contains 35 statements that over 3000 Americans from all walks of life answer.

Dr. Stephen Nichols, chief academic officer at Ligonier Ministries and president of Reformation Bible College, joins us to discuss some of the key findings of the survey with regard to the evangelical church and the general public. Because the real point of theology is not just to study God but to know, love, and worship Him!
