Wisdom from Kaiser

Carl Trueman
Feb 16, 2008
I had the pleasure today of hearing three lectures by Walter Kaiser Jnr. I was particularly struck by a statement he made tonight: `To ignore any part of the Word of God today is to create a seedbed for heresy in the next generation -- or to generate the need for a parachurch ministry.' A clarion...

New Book

An excellent new volume is that by Robert C Kolb and Charles P Arand, The Genius of Luther's Theology (Baker Academic).

Soul Patches: a Defence of the Trueman Hypothesis

Feb 14, 2008
Some may remember that a few months back I argued that soul patches on ministers were a sign of pathetic middle aged men in the uncoolest and untrendiest calling on earth trying to pose as -- say it ain't so -- cool and trendy. Well, a friend in Grand Rapids has challenged that thesis.

Taylor Marshall on Rowan Williams

Carl Trueman
Feb 13, 2008
A former student of mine (and probably one of the most successful, entertaining and least narcissistic bloggers in the US) has brought his readers attention to Rowan Williams' latest gaffe.
