About the Show
Rigorous. Reverent. Reformed.
The Reformed Reference Podcast exists for Christians who want more than surface-level faith. Each episode takes on a substantive question — theological, historical, or apologetic — and works through it with care, precision, and a deep respect for the tradition.
Host John Leonetti draws on his M.A. in Christian Apologetics from Biola University and decades of ministry experience to bring accessible but rigorous content to listeners wherever they are in their walk.
Whether you're a pastor, a layperson, or someone still working out what you believe, the Reformed Reference is a place to think carefully about the faith once delivered to the saints.
"The mind is the battleground of the soul."
