The Internet Monk and Boar’s Head Tavern web sites received a real compliment today. Both were added to the “Theology” sidebar at Douglas Wilson’s site, Blog and Mablog. As one of the BHT fellows said, Wilson is the kind of person who can say, “I disagree with you, but we are fellow Christians talking aboutContinue reading “Thanks To Doug Wilson and Dan Edelen”

Alastair Represents Wright; Ascol Calls for Truth
Alastair at Adversaria has written a detailed, important and comprehensive post on Why is Wright Misrepresented and Misunderstood by so many of his Reformed Critics? It’s a monster of good post that you must read if you are interested in Bishop Wright’s contribution to theology and the judgement of many in the reformed community thatContinue reading “Alastair Represents Wright; Ascol Calls for Truth”
The Sky Is Falling: Alan Roxburgh’s Vision of Missional Leadership
Bill Kinnon is a faithful IM reader who does a lot of visual media projects. He’s brought to my attention his video for Alan Roxburgh’s new book, The Sky is Falling. I am familar with Roxburgh from other books and many web sites. He’s an academic with the ability to say some very practical, helpfulContinue reading “The Sky Is Falling: Alan Roxburgh’s Vision of Missional Leadership”
Recommendation: “What Was I Thinking?” by Steve Brown
At least once a year, I pick up a book by Reformed Seminary professor, radio talk show guy and Key Life speaker/teacher Steve Brown, and I am always glad I did. In fact, Steve Brown’s unique perspective in the reformed world is one of the absolute necessities for me in these post-evangelical, post-reformed times. HisContinue reading “Recommendation: “What Was I Thinking?” by Steve Brown”
A Small Arsenal on Eschatology
I’ve written in several places about my experience with questions from the students and staff I minister to. By an overwhelmingly number, most of the questions have to do with the end times, eschatology and the Book of Revelation. Predictably, these are the areas of least interest to me, so finding useful resources has beenContinue reading “A Small Arsenal on Eschatology”
Review: Reinventing Jesus
In a flood of books about the radical revisionism regarding Jesus going on in current New Testament studies, it is important to those with less than endless book allowances to find the right book that accomplishes as much as possible in a helpful way. Reinventing Jesus is such a book, and I recommend it highlyContinue reading “Review: Reinventing Jesus”
Review: Pocket Guide To The Bible by Jason Boyett
UPDATE: Jason is guestblogging at the BHT June 12-16. My White Castles have yet to arrive. A few years ago our family encountered The Reduced Shakespeare Company’s “The Complete Works of William Shakespeare, Abridged,” a two hour stage production that took my beloved Bard, mixed him with three manic, irreverent comedians, and produced the mostContinue reading “Review: Pocket Guide To The Bible by Jason Boyett”
William Lane Craig-Bart Ehrman Debate on the Resurrection of Jesus
I don’t usually pass along single links as posts, but I am sure that many of the IM audience will want to read, save and/or print this transcript of the William Lane Craig- Bart Ehrman Debate. It’s impressive in many ways: scope, depth, congeniality, candor and readability. The debate was in March of this yearContinue reading “William Lane Craig-Bart Ehrman Debate on the Resurrection of Jesus”
More on The Gospel and Appalachia
Noel and Ryan’s wedding is this weekend, so blogging may be light for a while. In the meantime, Denise has written a good essay at her web site: Take A Rest. Many of you liked the essays I did on “The Gospel and Appalachia.” The Gospel and Appalachia The Gospel and Appalachia: Can The CultureContinue reading “More on The Gospel and Appalachia”
Who’s Afraid of Bart Ehrman?
UPDATE: A substantial response to and critique of Ehrman’s views on textual criticism can be found in this essay by evangelical New Testament Greek scholar Daniel Wallace. Bart Ehrman is rapidly rising up the list of names appearing frequently in the watchblogosphere. As Ehrman gets more attention on the secular media, more apologists and defendersContinue reading “Who’s Afraid of Bart Ehrman?”
