INTERVIEW – Wayne Grudem, Part Four – Ethical Trajectories, Feminism, and Homosexuality

Last updated on: July 6, 2018 at 10:56 am By Adrian Warnock

This interview is being serialised over several days. So far I have published part one, which focused on personal issues, and part two, in which we discussed Systematic Theology.

The interview is summarised in my post Dr Wayne Grudem Interview – Highlights and Reflections. Adrian One of the other... Read more

We interrupt this interview to bring you a meeting with an even bigger catch – yes, the king of Pyromaniacs! I had the real blessing to hang out with my dear friend, Phil Johnson, today. We had some real fun, and even shot some video which I hope to be able to share with you in the next few days, although some technical problems are delaying that. As always, we had a great time, and we chatted theology and blogs... Read more

FILM – The Nativity Story, a Review and Personal Reflections

Last updated on: September 16, 2017 at 6:43 pm By Adrian Warnock

Living in the UK as a Christian in 2006 is a strange experience sometimes. Some fellow believers point to a number of events that seem to suggest that we are entering days of hostility to Christians. Events that have come to my attention in the last few months include: The growing hostility to the use of the word “Christmas” or Christian images – bizarrely this has led to a statement from something called the Christian-Muslim Forum reminding the politically correct...

Last updated on: November 30, 2006 at 1:34 am By Adrian Warnock

Albert Mohler gives The Nativity Story, to be released in the US and UK on 8th of December, the thumbs up – he says it is “In Season and On Message.” I have only seen this trailer, and some other video clips, but I have seen enough, together with Mohler’s praise (he has seen the whole thing) to strongly recommend that my readers take their kids to see it this Christmas. There is both a The Nativity Story, UK and... Read more
