Was going to get back to the debate, but got two good phone calls that took up our entire hour! First was on seminaries and apologetics, the second on particular redemption and related issues. Good to get back to doing the DL!
Spent the entire program Thursday responding to one of Bart Ehrman’s recent interviews on National Public Radio. Ehrman’s most recent book, Misquoting Jesus, is making the rounds amongst the enemies of the faith, and in this particular interview, he speaks much of his past as an evangelical, giving us some insights into how one goes from MBI graduate/strong evangelical to
Back in January of 2011 I taught a module in Owensboro at the Midwest Center for Theological Studies. My primary student contact, and one of the folks who gave me transportation, took me out to eat, etc., was Justin Kline. There is video, somewhere, of his baby daughter, shall we say, burping on my shoulder. I learned only this afternoon
Continued our examination of the Gaskins’ review of Rosaria Butterfield, this time digging more deeply into the key issues, issues that require pastoral sensitivity and thought, not the heavy hand of the bludgeon. Nearly 100 minutes in length.
Went 115 minutes today, the first hour focusing upon Sam Allberry’s presentation on transgenderism at the RZIM event just a few weeks ago. Then we moved on to look at some of the statements made recently by advocates of Textual Traditionalism (including identifying that moniker as “gutter language” and a “slur”). Lots of discussion of epistemology, Reformed theology, history of
Considered the implications of the rapid fall of Afghanistan back into the control of the Taliban at the start of the program, then gave a report from my time in Moscow at the Grace Agenda Conference, NSA Commencement, and preaching at Christ Church. Then looked a bit at the release of Mark in the ECM and the release of the
Spent a good deal of time playing the final portions of Ijaz Ahmad’s video on “the corruption of Scripture,” working through a lot of pretty in-dept stuff regarding the Greek Septuagint, etc. Then spent a bit of time looking at a supposed dilemma for Christians from Paul Williams, and finished off with about 50 minutes of thoughts on the brouhaha
As promised, I began my review of the interview with Frank Beckwith today, even extending the program by ten minutes. I likewise responded to the “Yes, I had read Trent, even though my comments would lead any reasonable person to think I had not” issue as well. I am half way through the interview, but more than halfway through the
We did a Skype based DL today looking at some comments William Lane Craig made about the atonement, and comparing and contrasting these with Hebrews 7:22-25. A good deal of discussion of how we derive our theology and why it is important. Don’t forget that on Thursday at 6pm EDT Vocab Malone will be guest hosting and doing an interview
