I’ve mentioned the “Prosperity Gospel” in some presentations recently, and I’ve had some questions about what I mean when I use the term. I’m going to outline some very basic responses- and have a little to say about them- so that I can refer others to them as a more complete answer than I can […]

This recommendation will be short for three reasons: 1) Mark Roberts is a fantastic pastor/apologist/scholar, and if you don’t already know that, what blogosphere are you living in? 2) Much of this book has already appeared on Roberts’ outstanding web site. 3) If you need this book to answer your questions, someone is probably […]

There’s no doubt that the current success of Roman Catholic apologetics has been greatly assisted by the publication and distribution of the Catechism of the Roman Catholic Church. Mark Noll, among others, has given considerable credit to the catechism for the change in Protestant-Catholic relations in the last 40 years. It is, in my opinion, […]

There is no such “thing” as grace II: Thomas Merton
“Let us recognize also that our concept of grace may be hazy and unreal. In fact, the more the notion of grace is treated by us in a semi-materialistic, objectified way, the more unreal it will be. In practice, we tend to think of grace as […]

There is no such ‘thing’ as grace, by Sinclair Ferguson
“There is nothing between the person of the Lord Jesus and the person of the believer as that union and communion develops and grows. I think this is a very important thing for us to grasp. Let me put it the way I sometimes put it: […]

I am helped daily by good audio resources on my iPod. I’d like to share two resources that are new to me and very encouraging.
Many of us never hear any preaching from the mainline denominations. Our entire exposure to preaching is from evangelicals and fundamentalists, but many mainline preachers are worth hearing. I’ve discovered the […]

I’ve closed the comments on this one since the original post containing the comment was removed. You can still read my response here.

“Will God punish people forever in hell?” In this second segment, I talk about what happens when we give up the belief that God is a just and perfect judge.

Where I live, there’s a remarkable amount of visible unity among Christians. I’d like to describe it for you, at least as I’ve seen and experienced it.
I live in one of the poorest regions of the United States. Two counties near to us are in the federal government’s list of the ten poorest counties in […]

Stephen Nichols has a proven track record as a teacher of church history who can write on the level of the interested layman and keep the important matters important, the obscure in a safe place and the relevant on the front burner. His introduction to the life and work of Martin Luther is the best […]

Every so often, I entertain the notion that if the theologians would leave us alone, Christians would get along quite differently.
I know someone- actually a lot of someones- are going to tell me that Christians will divide over the color of the carpet without the help of any theologians, and that is certainly true. […]

I’d like to do two things in this post. Really, this should be two posts, but I’m lazy.
First, I want to give some tentative answers to the question raised on this blog and discussed throughout the blogosphere, “Can We Be Too God-Centered?” My answers will be brief, and I’ll unpack them a bit more […]

UPDATE: You have to wonder why David Wayne can see that it’s possible to cite and commend both Piper and myself positively, while other reformed bloggers are denouncing me for denying sovereignty and hating on Piper? “From a different perspective….” I guess that phrase is allowed some places and not others.
First, thoughts.
