Theology 101-Ask the Pastor

Repeat Broadcast-Ever had a question about religion, faith, doctrine, theology, the reformed faith, but didn’t know who to ask? On this broadcast, on this edition of Theology 101, Mike directs listener questions to Pastor Scott Reiber, dealing with topics such as:

What is the definition of regneration?
Does regeneration preceed salvation?
When the Bible says that God is [...]

Christians and Halloween, Part 2

In Part 2 of the series, Mike shares a classic program from The John Ankerberg Show on the roots, meanings, and dangers of Halloween. In this last installment Dr. Ankerberg examines the origins of Halloween practices: “Trick or Treat,” Jack O’Lanterns, bobbing for apples, costuming, etc. Where did these customs, rituals, and symbols of Halloween come from? 
What [...]

Christians and Halloween, Part 1

It’s that time of year again, time when children (and some crazy adults) dress up in ghoulish costumes and go door-to-door trick or treating for candy. It’s also that time of year when The Mike Corley Program focuses on the true meaning of the satanic observance known as Halloween. Should Christians observe this “holiday”. In Part 1 of [...]

The Obama Abomination

What should the position be of a Christian concerning the candidacy of Barack Obama? Can and/or should a faithful believer support Obama for president? Whats the problem with that? Is Obama a Marxist, a socialist, a communist? Mike discusses these issues and provides commentary on The Obama Abomination. Also, the Schullers have a tiff, and one California church [...]

On Call with Dr. Dan Edney

(Many of you know that in addition to my own broadcsast, I co-host and produce a weekly program with Dr. Daniel P. Edney called On Call. As a way to invite more people to be encouraged and equipped by this ministry, I plan to feature the program here on MikeCorley.org. I trust this broadcast will be a blessing to [...]

Sovereignty of God and the free-will of man

On todays program, Mike agrees with Ed Young Jr. on how the Bible is the best voter guide; also, a great Spurgeon quote on the sovereignty of God and the free-will of man; and listener emails on the rise of Calvinism and the Osteens.  

 

Encouraged by the Rise of Calvinism

If I were to write an article (and I plan on it) or give a sermon on why I am a Calvinist, this message by Pastor Jeff Noblit would be what I would like to write or say. In this incredible message by the pastor of Grace Life Church of the Shoals and the founder of Anchored [...]

Osteen…Osteen…Osteen

The Osteen are making the rounds once again on network TV pushing Victoris new book, “Love Your Life: Living Happy, Healthy, and Whole”. On this program, Mike looks at comments made by Joel and Victoria on FOX News Channel’s Hannity and Colmes recently. Notice how Alan Colmes sounds more like a Christian than the “co-pastors” [...]

What is Roman Catholicism?

I received an email from a sincere listener taking me to task for recent comments I made concerning the Roman Catholic church. As I have stated before, while I have friends who are members of the Roman church, it is, I believe, undeniably an apostate religion. So, as a response to this email, I offer [...]

Family Driven Faith

Mike interviews Dr. Voddie Baucham, Jr. on his book Family Driven Faith-Doing What is takes to Raise Sons and Daughters Who Walk with God. More teens are turning away from the faith than ever before: it is estimated that 75 to 88% of Christian teens walk away from Christianity by the end of their freshman year of [...]

Did They Say That?

Mike lightens things up…a wee bit, with this installment of “Did they say that?”, featuring written statements and audio clips from the circles of contemporary Christianity dealign with such subjects as apologetics, church growth, Reformed faith, and an obscure story of a baby mocking preaching while a frenzied congregation expresses their approval. Featured on the program [...]

True Saving Faith

Many people say they are Christians, yet they never show evidence of what the Bible says is the fruit of salvation. On this program, Mike shares clips from Dr. John MacArthur, from his series on The Gospel According to Jesus. What is the Gospel? Are works important in salvation? What is the complete gospel message?

Worship…Vertical or Horizontal?

Stephen Charnock once said concerning worship, “To pretend to pay homage to God and intend only the advantage of self is, rather, to mock Him than worship Him. When we believe that we ought to be satisfied than God glorified, we set God below ourselves. Imagine, that He should submit His own honor to our [...]

Welcome back Mike!

After the move…and the unpacking, and a new assignment…and the unpacking….Mike presents a brand new program. Today he comments on issues such as McCain/Palin and calling Obama to account; also ….

Theology 101-Limited Atonement

The Westminster Confession states, “. . . Wherefore they who are elected being fallen in Adam, are redeemed in Christ, are effectually called unto faith in Christ by His Spirit working in due season; are justified, adopted, sanctified, and kept by His power through faith unto salvation. Neither are any other redeemed by Christ, effectually [...]
