I've got to hand it to Logos. This is pretty cool. Search the Bible, read the Bible in paragraph format, check a lot of major versions. I'm awarding it some much-coveted space in my Firefox Bookmarks Toolbar! It's very fast, though, making me think that Logos is not...

The Bitter Cup
I tried to track down the following classic quote from Spurgeon, and the best I could do was a reference deep in the recesses of the Internet to his sermon "Woe and Weal" on Micah 7:9. It would be a very sharp and trying experience to me to think that I have an...
Some Good Online Courses and Lectures
My father-in-law recently asked for some recommendations for online courses to pass on to a friend. I replied recommending Dr. Ken Casillas's Old Testament Theology course at BJ Seminary. It's available via correspondence. I was in that class, and it was fantastic. I...

I think the question "Why should I do right?" (or perhaps "What is the best motivation to to right?") is one of the most important questions we can ask in our process of sanctification. The opening verses of 1 Cor 13 should be enough to convince us of that. And I'm...

Pittsburgh Bishop Is Ousted – NYTimes.com
Picked this up from the New York Times, an AP story. Bishop Duncan, who led the Pittsburgh diocese for 11 years, is a leader in a national network of theological conservatives who are breaking away from the liberal denomination in a dispute over Scripture.[From...
Logos Blogs
For those who were just in my Logos lecture in BJU's Ministry and Media course (and you readers out in TV Land), here are the links to Logos blogs which I promised. These are links to feeds, not to blogs. They should go right into Google Reader. Logos Bible Software...
Ok, Ok… I’m a Bit Excited, Too
I'm looking forward to the release of the ESV Study Bible. I'm wondering only why a study Bible needs articles on the following issues: Roman Catholicism (Gregg R. Allison) Eastern Orthodoxy (Robert Letham) Liberal Protestantism (Bruce A. Ware) Evangelical...
Hebrew Helps (Especially for BJU Seminary Students)
My friend Josh Young, a fellow Mount Calvary member and BJ Seminary student, recently sent me a set of helps for learning the vocabulary list required here in our Hebrew program. I was never a flash-card guy myself, but you may be. If you are, he's done some great...
