Well, I now draw to the end of my series of posts responding to each of the audio sessions available from Together for the Gospel. These posts, together with all my other ones about this conference, are linked in a single round up post. Today I want to reflect a little on the panel sessions which were, frankly, almost more impressive than the sessions in my book! You really ought to go listen to them! We had a unique window...

Every now and then I struggle to understand why people keep coming to read my blog. Well, thanks to google analytics I have the chance to thank some bloggers who keep sending people my way. Believe it or not, I haven’t really been able to tell where my traffic actually comes from up until now. I know that will surprise some of the more data-obsessive bloggers out there, but this kind of data really hasn’t been of great interest to... Read more
Here it is, this season’s hot property for all theological types. I give you the T4G shoe! Yes, seriously! See Air Jordan T4G for more information. Read more
I was directed recently to the last verse of this segment which is something of a life verse for a very good friend of mine. But ever the good Bible student, I went and looked at the context. Boy, is this a message us bloggers need to hear! I think this is a great introduction to my series on the T4G statement which I am afraid I haven’t started yet, but will do soon, I promise! This is such a... Read more

I am convinced that everything Piper says here about speech applies equally to blogging. The trouble with blogging is it has all the immediacy of speech with all the permanence of writing! We should be even more careful about what we write online than we are about what we say offline. In this sermon on Ephesians 4, Piper gives us some clear instruction, to whch we would do well to listen. ” . . . let’s step back and ask... Read more
Revitalizing the Soul Mark Dever shares a quote from John Piper in the midst of a discussion on ‘busy schedules.’ “I find PRODUCTIVITY restful for my soul.” (tags: dever piper T4GB) Joe Injects Some Humor Into the Blog Wars (tags: humor) Spurgeon on Revival Go read….

I have already linked to some quotes from this message here, and Tim Challies has also posted his summary. The message can also be downloaded as an mp3 from SGM.This message was a masterful defense of the doctrine of justification by faith alone. It interacted with Catholic theology and sounded a clear note. In all the confusion that clutters the modern theological scene, I am thrilled that someone as wise and persuasive as Sproul did not fail to miss the... Read more
Now that I have finally booked my place at the annual newfrontiers conference, I’ve decided it is safe to share it with you. There is every possibility this conference will sell out this year. If you can get a place, I promise it will be worth every penny of a transatlantic flight if that’s what it needs. If you are UK-based, do anything you can to get there!! * * * * * * * * * * * *...

The audio from Sunday’s sermon is available to listen online or via the podcast. God helped me, and there was a good response to a call for prayer. One young guy made a public declaration of the faith he had come to over the last few weeks in private. There is great joy in heaven over one sinner who repents! Here are my notes, although they are perhaps less complete than usual. Introduction Welcome to the family. Want you to... Read more
