A New Trimester


A new trimester is upon me. Tomorrow begins with Winebrenner’s Theological Summit lectures. This trimester we have the privilege of having Dr. Scot McKnight come to give the lectures. He will be speaking on conversion -not exactly sure where he will go with it, but it will be interesting to listen. I’m looking forward to […]

On Vacation


Well I’m headed to Washington D.C. for a week’s vacation. Our little family will make the 8-10 hour trek leaving early Saturday morning. We’re staying with friends who live in Gaithersburg, MD. They attended Covenant Life Church, where Joshua Harris pastors. So we’ll be paying a visit there on Sunday. From there it’s off to […]

New Look for Words


Well I’ve decided it is time to update the look of this site. And if you know me at all …well it doesn’t take long for a change to be needed! I just have to fiddle with things, sometimes making a good thing bad. So, the point of this post, tell me which do you […]

Thoughts on Eschatology Debate and Blogging


As you may have noticed, I’ve been trying to keep up with the debate (and usually it gets very far ahead of me) that is going on in the blog-o-sphere concerning John MacArthur’s lecture at the Sherpherd’s conference about eschatology. As I have been keeping track of what posts are out there on this topic, […]

Premillennialism vs. Amillennialism


The events of the Shepherd’s conference have caused many to begin to think through their eschatology. Some people are not happy that MacArthur chose this issue to put his stake in the ground, saying there are other issues more important to discuss. Well, what is done is done, and here we are. Below is the […]

Shepherd’s Conference MacArthur Explosion


This post is currently being updated at: Premillennialism vs. Amillennialism
I might just be catching up with the rest of the blogosphere on this issue, but apparently John MacArthur’s lecture to begin the conference kicked if off with a bang! His discussion of Calvinism and Premillennialism
has prompted some discussion in on the web. Now I am […]

Humility


When you think you have humility, you probably do not. A humble person does not care if he is viewed as humble or not, the thought is beyond humility. That person can only be called humble by another who is not being prompted to do so.
Why do we fight and quarrel? Because we want something […]

Desiring God Conference - Day 3


Well here is the last of the Desiring God 2007 Conference Speakers.
William Mackenzie’s audio and notes from his message called “Words for the World: Rejoicing in God’s Global Use of Christian Literature.”

Desiring God Conference - Day 1


Well, the Desiring God 2007 pastor’s conference is in full swing. Last night the conference began with R.C. Sproul speaking. You can read the notes and listen to the audio. I have yet to listen to the audio, but I’m sure its a worthwhile listen. I enjoyed listening to last year’s conference as there were […]

The Kingdom of God and Coming To Christ


I was reading Robert Webber’s work Ancient-Future Faith in which he discussed the kingdom of God. I was struck by his comment that the kingdom of God brings the reign of God over all areas of our life, calling us to put ourselves under his rule as opposed to the rule of Satan. Now I […]
