The Glory of Grace: An Introduction to t...
This is a 2018 Banner of Truth Trust publication which reprints some of the writings of 15th century Puritans. Those men are Richard Sibbes, Thomas Goodwin, Samuel Rutherford, William Bridge, Jeremish Burroughs, Anne Bradstreet, John Owen, Richard Baxter, John Bunyan, John Flavel, and Thomas Boston. My favorite quote is on prayer from John Flavel, “Prayer […]
Loving God with all Your Mind
I have always enjoyed reading Gene Veith. He was the first to introduce me to postmodernism back in the early 90s. Somewhere along the line I missed this 1987, 2003 book. The sub-title is: Thinking as a Christian in the Postmodern World. Veith uses Daniel as his primary example of someone who was forced to […]
Noah Webster
Did You Know? By Debra Conley One of the first complete dictionaries published in America was Noah Webster’s 1828 Dictionary. At the time, the Bible was the standard textbook in most schools and homes and Webster, a Bible student himself, included many interesting quotes from Scripture within his definitions. Consider the word Study. Along […]
It’s Time To Start Again
Well, it’s time to start again. On January 1st no one writing columns really knows how to say anything new. As a pastor who must preach a fresh sermon every Christmas and Easter and all the other holidays, and has been doing it for most of my life, I can tell you I repeat myself […]
The Ultimate Proof of Creation
Dr. Jason Lisle is researcher on staff at Ken Ham’s Answers in Genesis, who writes the forward to the book. It is printed by Master Books, Green Forest, AR, 2009 and is in its sixth printing in 2015. This is more of a book on logic, reasoning, and debating than on creation itself. Lisle goes […]
Questions of the Modern Mind

On February 4, 2014 Ken Ham of Answers in Genesis debated with Bill Nye from Bill Nye the Science Guy. Many in the scientific community tuned in to see how the debate would go. Countless churches and schools organized viewings […]
What We Talk About When We Talk About Go...
Rob Bell’s newest book is out, though without the hype that accompanied his last book. We gave a full article to reviewing Love Wins when it came out in early 2012, we gave an article to Brian McLaren’s A New Kind of Christianity, and we gave another article to the theological method (narrative theology) that […]
Reading This Year
Francis Bacon once said, “Reading makes a broad man but writing makes an exact man.”1 I am not as broad as I ought to be and am surely not as exact as I need to be. I find myself more in agreement with the preacher when he wrote, “and further, by these, my son, be […]
Right Reason and the Princeton Mind
This book is subtitled: “An Unorthodox Proposal.” Helseth sets out to defend the theologians of Old Princeton (Alexander, Hodge, Warfield, Machen) against the accepted scholarly opinion of their theology. The accepted opinion states that these men illegitimately borrowed categories and philosophies from Enlightenment thinking, such as Scottish Common Sense Realism and Baconianism. And so, this […]
