The folks over at urclearning.org have started a new series on their Sinners & Saints podcast on the Ten Commandments, and the first installment begins a discussion on the Reformed distinction between law and gospel. It'll only take about 10 minutes of your time. Check it out here...

What are your views on how often we ought to participate in the Eucharist? Why?

I thought you all would appreciate this: http://tominthebox.blogspot.com/2007/01/net-finney-guards-families-against.html If only I had had this software a few years ago, I'd still be safe in my little world of altar calls and rededications! :D

Is the following short summary by Dr. R. Scott Clark of the Lutheran view of baptism accurate? If not, how would you emend this? "Baptism is so closely related to the gospel that through it, Christians receive eternal life and without baptism there can be no assurance of salvation. Both the...

I am going through a very rough stage in my life. As you all know, I am a student at a tough engineering school. This semester, I have fallen behind in my work. This is because I have unwisely managed my time, and foolishly wasted much of it in pursuits that have not helped me in my duties...

I was listening to the White Horse Inn this morning, and they interviewed one David Murrow, author of Why Men Hate Going to Church. The answer, in short, is the feminization of the modern church. Especially in mainline Protestant and Evangelical churches, worship has been geared toward women and...

Nevermind. I'd like this deleted.

Let's say a young Reformed Christian has about a $100 to spend, and he wants to buy some books. He does not shy away from "heavy" or challenging content, of course :). What would you recommend to him, so that his money is best spent?

In my study of Covenant Theology, I have come across the controversy over the new perspective on Paul, federal vision, and Auburn Avenue theology. I'm not sure I understand a whole lot of it, but there seems to be something funny going on. The h-word (heresy) is flying about, hitting guys who I...

In the WCF, chapter V, sec. III: God in his ordinary providence maketh use of means; yet is free to work without, above, and against them, at his pleasure. I understand this section of the Confession first to be stating that God uses means in order to accomplish His purposes. But what I have...

What do you know about it? What do you think about it? Having heard nothing but Bad Things about the Reconstructionists from the moment I heard the term, I was shocked to discover that several of the Christians I'd gotten into the habit of reading--North, DeMar, Phillips, Bahnsen, et al.--are...

What's up with all the Reformed criticism of Doug Wilson? I've heard him called a heretic, although I have never seen anything from him that I find unorthodox. I find his writings on family issues and slavery/racism to be particularly enjoyable and profitable. His creativity seems to know no...

I am still in my search for a church (hey, that rhymes!). One of my friends from an evangelical organization on campus told me about what she thinks is a Reformed church in my area. It is a Sovereign Grace Church, but I know nothing about the denomination. She said they were Reformed in their...

You cannot wade into the mire of politics without hearing the media alarm about "fundamentalism." Pundits who otherwise would lunge for each other's throat unite in their opposition of "fundamentalists." Christian fundamentalists threaten the state with their sectarian battles, Jewish...

Any good resources on the topic?

Don't worry, it's illustrated: http://www.sacredsandwich.com/photo17.htm

My church is on the road to liberalism. The church I was raised in used to be a small, conservative evangelical church. The church, along with my parents, taught me the basics about the Bible and Christianity (at least, the brand of Christianity they taught), and for their provision I will ever...

I first played The Betrayal at Krondor from Sierra, then read Feist's Krondor: The Betrayal. My sister has picked up the Riftwar Saga, which I intend to read at some point. If you've read any of Feist's work, what do you think?
