Westminster Bookstore is having a great sale on a great new product - The Essential Edwards Collection (5 Vol.) . Jonathan Edwards is not the easiest to read theologian. Okay, that's an understatement. But Owen Strachan and Doug Sweeney have done us a great service by making Edwards accessable...

In reading posts at Biologos I have been struck by the biblical scholars who seem to suggest that their apprehension of truth is of higher authority than what is revealed in God's Word. In other words, when something in the Bible does not comport with their intellectual or sentemental categories...

Jonathan Leeman has posted a review of Richard Phillips newest book - The Masculine Mandate . Every once in a while, you read a book which seems so basic and solid you wonder why no one has already written it. Greg Gilbert’s What Is the Gospel? felt that way to me. So did Richard Phillip’s The...

Recently two American cities have been making headlines for seeking to introduce young students to graphic sexual details under the guise of education. In Provincetown Mass., a policy was recently adopted to distribute condoms to all students regardless of age without parental consent. Meanwhile...

Praying for Christopher Hitchens

Jul 16, 2010
From Ross Douthat : The whole public discussion about whether Christians and other believers should be praying for Christopher Hitchens , currently stricken with throat cancer, strikes me as a rather unfortunate exercise. Surely it goes without saying that he should be prayed for, but surely it...
