I’ll be LIVE on the air with Chris Arnzen, host of Iron Sharpens Iron radio, on Monday 3/8 at 6pm EST / 5pm CST. Here is the teaser that Chris is sending out about the interview. Please tune in and feel free to call in with your questions or comments.
Bob Hayton, founder of Fundamentally Reformed (see www.FundamentallyReformed.com), will address the theme: “Reforming Fundamentalism Through Reformed Theology”.
Bob is a former Independent Fundamental Baptist (IFB), who now embraces Reformed Theology. He blogs to: 1) spread a passion for Jesus Christ, 2) help people harmed by extreme fundamentalism, 3) encite wider reform in fundamentalism & beyond, and 4) defend his theological positions. Bob also operates the “King James Only?” blog spot, the King James Only Research Center web site and other helpful blog spots and web sites.
According to our guest, Bob Hayton, “Often in fundamentalism, doctrine and Biblical exegesis are downplayed, ignored, or avoided. Topical or shallow messages prevail. Church members learn their do’s & don’ts but not what the Bible actually says (the arguments Biblical authors use, the context of favorite proof texts, or Bible doctrines in general). While fundamentalists claim to be standing on the Bible alone, rare is the church that actually opens itself up to Biblical scrutiny. For instance, it is an assumed thing that the Bible will not actually be shown to teach Calvinism, post-tribulational rapture, or covenant theology. So anyone who would espouse one of these positions or another similar position is immediately identified as a heretic and the church never actually carefully reviews what the Bible says on the matter…
“Fundamentalists assume that their practices, standards, and positions are Biblical to the point of reading into the Bible what is not there to support their traditions and viewpoints… while fundamentalists claim to be the stalwart defenders of true doctrine, they are in fact the defenders of old-fashioned (actually late 1800’s early 1900’s) tradition…”
Tune or log into this live, controversial, call-in broadcast and learn how Bob Hayton discovered and made the journey to embrace Reformed Theology, the *truly* old “Old Time Religion”.

I just got the update email. Man, Chris must be getting desperate. =-)
LOL! That’s what I thought, too….
Just got your email, have fired up the live stream, so I’ll post and promote the podcast when it’s posted. Can’t say how proud of you and grateful for your blog I am! May God bless your efforts, this interview proves how worthwhile they are!
Thanks for listening John. It was fun to know you were, and then to hear you call in toward the end! Maybe we could do a tandem interview the two of us next time!
That would call for a seriously slow news day!
How did you get the opportunity to be on ISI in the first place?
John I was emailed out of the blue by Chris Arnzen, the host of the show. I was thrilled with the opportunity and really enjoyed the experience.

Please also check out sharpens.org as they’ll have a blog post up shortly describing the interview. You can flood him with comments about how glad you were he had me on the show! (just kidding!)
Oh and please note, the first couple minutes of the mp3 are in Spanish, the finale of the programming just prior to the interview. And there are a lot of commercials in the first 5 min. of the mp3 after that there aren’t too many more interruptions.
