A Trophy of Grace Proclaims the Gospel
In the mercy and providence of God, my younger brother, David, became a Christian in March of this year. He has an insightful account of what happened in his brain as the Lord drew him, and there’s a lot of other good stuff on his blog, too. By the way, note that I referred to …

It’s always encouraging when solid thinkers join the blogosphere. Today it’s my privilege to point to a blog that has just come to my attention. I met Jeff Mooney while we were both students at SBTS. We didn’t get to spend a lot of time together, but everything I know about him I respect and …
Does the ETS have as much backbone as the Tyndale Fellowship?
The issue is not exactly as posed in the heading of this blog, but surely the members of the Evangelical Theological Society can stomach the doctrinal basis of the Tyndale Fellowship. Denny Burk and Ray Van Neste are trying to make the boundaries of the Evangelical Theological Society more clear, and they’re adapting the doctrinal …

The Blogosphere Gains a Bock!
Some people clearly do not respect the blogosphere. For them, blogs are operated by dropouts who are unable to get themselves published in “legitimate” arenas. When these people refer to “bloggers,” the word is spoken with the same scorn with which they dismiss the “punk kids” or the “ignorant malcontents” who are simply not worth …
A Prophet in the Wilderness
My friend Jimmy Stanfield has finally started a blog. This brother is thoughtful and interesting, reads voraciously, and often has a way of helping one see the world through gospel lenses. May the nails ring out on The Wittenberg Door, and may we hear the voice of this one calling in the wilderness, "Repent, for …

Theowonk: Aspiring Theologian of the Cross
An anonymous blog has been brought to my attention. The opening post explains the clever pseudonym under which the blogger posts and concerns the pursuit of wisdom–knowing God and walking before him. It looks like this blogger likes the theology of Martin Luther, as reflected in the name of the blog, Theologia Crucis.
