A Great Quote from Carl Henry in a 1991 Video Lecture
Carl Henry, in the second video on this page, paints a clear picture of the modernism that, he says (and I agree), co-opted the American church at the turn of the last century. He even uses a little appropriate humor: Modernism’s deepest assumption was that the...

Keyboard Shortcuts, Or Nirvana Is Getting Crowded
I love keyboard shortcuts. When I was a child, I eschewed DOS in favor of the wonders of GUI! I thought: why type on the keyboard when you can click with a mouse! But—as the green lady in C.S. Lewis's Perelandra would say—"I am older now," so I use the keyboard for as...
Free Commentaries by Actual Scholars!
I picked up this free commentary within minutes of its release, but I neglected to tell you... Please forgive me! It looks like a slightly beefed up BKC, or maybe a slightly beefed down EBC. Looks, in fact, like a Tyndale series commentary (some of which, especially...
