Rob & Vinnie spend time asking questions about the church like: what are positive and negatives that they see in the church? Do buildings get in the way of the church carrying out its mission? Do we need to GO go to church if we are at home listening to sermons and worship music?

THIS EPISODE
When is the rapture? WHAT is the rapture? Rob and Vinnie examine 1 Thess 4:13-18, the famous "rapture" passage, to discern what Paul's message to the Thessalonians was. Rob and Vinnie argue that the passage describes the coming of a king to a city. They suggest that Paul encourages the Thessalonians with respect to those in the community who had died by assuring them that they had not missed...
THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie finish their conversation on Jesus, the poor, and poverty by looking at the teachings of Jesus in light of His kingdom message.

THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie begin a discussion of Jesus and the poor. They respond to the assertion that Jesus said, "The poor you will always have." They do so by looking at the OT context for this quote and argue that the people of God are called to be advocates for a just society in which "there shall be no poor among you" (Deut 15:4). What does this mean for the Church?
THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie take a hard look at how society treats the poor—and how our assumptions often do more harm than good. Too often, people are told their poverty is the result of bad choices, while at the same time, billions of dollars are poured into corporate bailouts with little public outcry. We challenge this hypocrisy and explore how practical, compassionate assistance—rat...
THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie initiate a discussion on Jesus, poverty, and the poor. In light of the use of 1st and 2nd Thessalonians to justify neglecting the poor, they begin the discussion by examining the causes of poverty, particularly in relation to the role of education. The goal of this conversation is not to form a political opinion on what the government should do as much as it i...
THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie discuss the Roman background for Paul's exhortations that "If a man will not work, he shall not eat" (2 Thess 3:10). Rob explains that Paul is addressing some in the Church of Thessalonica who were attaching themselves to Patron--wealth elites in the city--in order that they didn't have to do manual labor. These Patrons provided for the Clients' well-being, bu...
THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie get off to a rough start (two ADD guys), but rebound to discuss Paul's encouragement to the Thessalonians in light of their suffering. Then they address suffering and persecution in the life of the believer. As well as global persecution and the lack of it in much of Western Christianity. Why don't we suffer? Or, do we?

THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Rob (note the new mic and improved sound quality for Rob) and Vinnie address Paul's appeal in Colossians 3-4 to the church in Colosse to live in accordance with their new life in the kingdom! Paul begins by saying, "Therefore, if you have been raised with Christ . . ." (and they have), then live this way! Colossians 3 is critical to understand for the life of God's people to...
In this episode, Rob and Vinnie dive into Colossians 1–2, exploring the heart of the problem Paul was addressing in Colossae. They discuss the meaning of baptism and the question of infant baptism, and reflect on what to do when we realize our beliefs may not align with Jesus and the Kingdom. They also wrestle with how to engage fellow Christians who advocate for war and violence—views that seem to stand in contrast to the way of t...

In this episode, Rob and Vinnie examine Colossians 1:15-20. They examine how this beautiful poem is constructed to help us understand its meaning. What is the New Creation, and how is Christ the Firstborn over it?

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
