Summary
Hosts
In any conflict, there are at least two sides. In the life of man upon this earth, there is constant conflict with and against the world, the flesh, and the devil. As Christians, it is incumbent upon us — particularly as Christian men — to know what are our duties in this life; for a soldier, he must know his orders and where to execute them. If we are to oppose Satan and his forces, then we must know where he is attacking or where he plans to attack — this is the issue of target selection.
When we choose topics for this podcast, we choose them because they are places that Satan is attacking or places that Satan will (soon) attack. The goal is to prepare Christian men to fight back, to defend the Church and her children. In today’s episode, we discuss some of the ways a man can know where Satan is attacking, where Satan will attack, and how a Christian should and must respond.
If I profess with loudest voice and clearest exposition every portion of the truth of God except that little point which the world and the devil are at that moment attacking, I am not confessing Christ, however boldly I may be professing Christ. Where the battle rages, there the loyalty of the soldier is proved, and to be steady on all the battlefield besides, is mere flight and disgrace if he flinches at that point.
— St. Martin Luther

| 0:07.0 | The Welcome to the Stone Choir podcast. I am Corey J. Mahler. And I'm still, Whoa. |
| 0:45.1 | On today's Stone Quire, we're going to be doing another sort of meta episode where we talk about |
| 0:50.3 | how it is that we select the topics for Stone Chire. And more generally, how is it that we |
| 0:56.9 | choose to pick some of the fights that we pick? Why are we picking fights? Why do we want to fight |
| 1:03.0 | at all? It's a turnoff to some people. Why do a couple guys want to argue about stuff that |
| 1:08.2 | frankly most people aren't arguing about? And in the world, when you look |
| 1:12.0 | at some of the people talking about the things that we've done entire episodes and series on, |
| 1:16.8 | some of the people are pretty awful. They're from the opposite side politically. They're trying to |
| 1:21.4 | make an issue of something that most Christians have never thought about. And today we're going |
| 1:25.5 | to talk about sort of at a metal level, |
| 1:33.0 | why are we looking at this stuff? Why do we want you to care? Why would we spend all this time saying, hey, look over here. This thing that's annoying that you don't want to deal with at all |
| 1:37.7 | is actually really crucial. We're going to talk about the thought process behind how that happens. |
| 1:43.6 | And although we're going to use a |
| 1:45.2 | bunch of stuff about Stonequire as an example, this is fundamentally about trying to teach our |
| 1:49.2 | audience how to think, how to think generally. Because as you're looking out in the world, you're |
| 1:53.8 | seeing the same thing we're seeing. You're seeing things we don't see maybe. The general |
| 1:58.8 | applicability of the thought process is going to serve you in the future. |
| 2:03.5 | And so we're going to explain why we do what we do, because it's a context that we share |
| 2:06.9 | to help understand where men are doing things well and where some of us are doing things really |
| 2:13.3 | poorly as we're engaging with the world. Just very brief housekeeping, the Stonequire |
| 2:19.3 | challenge coins finally arrived. Corey has begun shipping them out. A few of you have already |
