I challenge you to block out all of the distractions and read a whole chapter of the Bible… In a single sitting! It’s not as hard as it could be.
I’m in a really cool class at Southern right now on Christianity and Science Fiction. Yeah, I know, your Cooperative Program dollars hard at work. But it has actually been fabulous and very compelling. For our final project we have been charged with the task of answering two crucial questions.
What is a biblical and theological [...]
My introduction to Dr. John Piper was in college, through a free cassette tape of one of his sermons which I picked up at a church in Dothan, Alabama while doing some drama for a JAM team there. My car at the time had no CD player and if you’ve ever tried to listen to [...]
Some quick information about Hebrew. Biblical Hebrew is a simple but complex language. It is simple because biblical Hebrew has a very small vocabulary (about a quarter of the size of that used by Shakespeare and approximately 1% of the 660,000+ words contained in the Oxford English Dictionary). Of these, many only occur once or [...]
Starting in the Fall, I’ll be taking Elementary Hebrew. With three kids now, I need as much of a head start as I can get. This is the Hebrew AlephBet. If I get a chance, I’ll talk a little bit more about the transformation of the Hebrew language. But for now, I feel like my [...]
Jerry Falwell recently proclaimed from his self-appointed papal pulpit that limited atonement is heresy. Then I guess I’m a heretic. Sorry I let you down Dr. Falwell.
Of course if I believed everything else that Dr. Falwell believes I would be correct to say that limited atonement is incorrect. If I believed that Christ’s death [...]
Engaging Culture (EC): So, Logan, how is everything going?
Logan Mauldin: You know, despite some recent worries and difficulties, I’m particularly pleased.
EC: Are you referring to your recent and ongoing financial difficulties?
Logan: Yeah, those are the ones. You know you take money for granted when you have it, but when it comes time to pay bills [...]
Hey everybody, sorry it’s a little slow around here these days, but since I resigned from FBC Archer, I’ve been working from home as a web designer. We needed to start making some money somehow so I’m supply preaching at a few different churches and looking for a short term interim position to fill the [...]
What do the recent deaths of the “Godfather of Soul” and America’s 38th president have in common?
Brown died at a relatively young age of 73, while Ford was the ripe old age of 93 when he passed. Brown was a trendsetter, Ford was following in the wake of Nixon. Brown was “the hardest working [...]
“The Christmas message is that there is hope for a ruined humanity—hope of pardon, hope of peace with God, hope of glory—because at the Father’s will Jesus Christ became poor, and was born in a stable so that thirty years later He might hang on a cross.†- J. I. Packer
What are some of your [...]
Tonight on The Barbara Walters Special ” Most Fascinating People of 2006″ The man with the most annoying smile in the world was #8. There is much more that annoys me about Joel Osteen than his grin. His teaching is just awful, yet week in and week out millions of people tune in to hear [...]
tells us to “logizesthe” on beautiful things, among others. The word “logizesthe” means to dwell on deeply, to meditate. It does not mean to skim over. It would be silly to imagine that Paul would urge his readers to “logizesthe” on things that were not worthy of it. So, what things are worthy of [...]
