The Apologetic Apostolic
The Apologetic Apostolic
Matt Gomez
A podcast where we understand receiving the Gospel is not the same as having all the answers. It's the humility to believe that the person on the other end of the table might know something that we don't. Enjoy these conversations where we have conversations that teach us to articulate Biblical beliefs better and actively love your neighbor by seeking to understand through disagreement. 
What I Learned From Years of Church Scandals
In this powerful and deeply personal episode, I open up about a difficult but necessary topic: church scandals. As a Christian who loves the Church and believes in the gospel of Jesus Christ, facing stories of moral failure, abuse, corruption, and cover-ups within church leadership has been heartbreaking and faith-shaking. But instead of turning away or shutting down, I chose to lean in—to listen, to learn, and to wrestle with the hard questions. This isn’t a hit piece. It’s not a deconstruct...

What is the Protestant View of the Trinity? w/ Andrew Elliott Part 2
Welcome to part 2 of three where you get to continue to eavesdrop on a conversation between myself and Andrew Elliott. In this part of the conversation, Andrew and I talk about a few of the differences between oneness and Trinitarian thought as well as other views of the Godhead and salvation.

With that being said,...

What is the Protestant View of the Trinity? w/ Andrew Elliott Part 1
Today’s episode is the first of three episodes where you get to eavesdrop on a conversation between myself and Andrew Elliott. Andrew is going to give us the details of his journey from growing up as a Oneness Pentecostal into later adopting the Trinitarian view of the Godhead.

With our beliefs being so different you c...

Is Adoption Really an Option? w/ Tom and Debbie Velie
Per the recording of this episode Roe v. Wade was overturned over a month ago, sparing the lives of many unborn babies. This was a moment of celebration for a lot of us because it meant that babies had a fighting chance at life again. While that is true, this decision also brought about mourning for other Americans. The question then could be asked, “why would there be mourning over unborn babies having a chance at life?”. We’ve seen the memes from both sides posting divisive and insulting th...

Are Pentecostals "Illogical Scripture Abusers"? w/ Samuel Vaughn
In this conversation, Student Pastor and author, Samuel Vaugn and I respond to a series of tweets voicing concerns of the doctrinal stance of Oneness Pentecostal in regards to the Godhead. Namely John 10:30 and the language that is used when Jesus says “I and my Father are One.” We hope you enjoy this conversation between two friends as we talk about salmon, Hanukkah, and mean tweets. If you would like a copy of Samuel’s book, “It Filled the House: The Journey from Tabernacle to Temp...

What Good Can Come from Discourse?
We talk about the utility of having a public discourse and what good it can do for the society, particularly those that hinge on theology. In this episode particularly, we go through a discourse, or demonstration rather, between the prophet Elijah and the prophets of Baal. What utility came from this discourse/demonstration and what principles can we learn and apply in our future disagreements? Hope you all enjoy.
