Expelled

I believe I had heard about this a while back, but this morning I viewed the trailer for an upcoming documentary entitled Expelled. The film, featuring Ben (”Bueller? Bueller?”) Stein attacks one of the most notoriously dogmatic, close-minded, unreasonable, illogical, types of fundamentalism that exists today: neo-darwinism. Watch the trailer and enjoy!

Joel McDurmon has an interesting post on his blog. One of the militant “new atheists” (ironic, since they use the same old worn-out arguments), Sam Harris, had a recent editorial in Nature magazine. In it, Harris commits the blunder that has become one of my top ten pet peeves: erroneously retelling the Galileo story (McDurmon […]

Two Recent Sermons

Here are links to two recent sermons I preached at Midlane Park Associate Reformed Presbyterian Church. The text for both is the same: Acts 2:42 ( “They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”). The first was preached on Sept. 16; the […]

Truth Project Videos

Here are a couple of videos from The Truth Project. I wanted to get these posted to give a bit of “flavor” as to what the curriculum entails. The first is an overview/promo; the second addresses the issue of worldviews. You’ll probably see a few familiar faces.


I saw this internet ad and just had to post it. It seems that it is now possible, for about 30 pounds, one can purchase a Scottish title (reminds me a scene from “Braveheart” and a bad Monty Python line). From the ad:
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be among the […]

Wednesday Wordiness

I posted my first “Monday Morning Musing” a couple of days ago, and my comments received a strong objection of sorts by a good friend. It seems that he believes I have overlooked the latter part of John 6 as representative of both the Incarnation and Lord’s Supper (like double-mint, it’s two-two-two doctrines in one!). […]

Monday Morning Musing

I recently read the following statement in R.J. Rushdoony’s The One and the Many. It concerns Luther (and the Lutheran) doctrine of consubstantiation:
Luther, in his view of the sacrament [of the Lord’s Supper], is treating the sacrament as a symbol of the incarnation. This is precisely Luther’s error: the sacrament is not a symbol of […]

Devoted to Fellowship

I preached this sermon on September 9, 2007.
“ They were continually devoting themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone kept feeling a sense of awe; and many wonders and signs were taking place through the apostles. And all those who had believed were together […]

I’m currently reading The Deliberate Church by Mark Dever and Paul Alexander (a follow-up to Dever’s Nine Marks of a Healthy Church). A few days ago I read this statement within the book (p. 28), which is a pretty good summary of the truth of the gospel:
This Gospel, then, is that God is our holy […]

I received this email from another pastor this morning (from Robert Truelove, the pastor of Christ Reformed Church in Lawrenceville, GA — my wife and I attended there for a time while we were living in the Atlanta area; they are a very Biblical, covenantal, family-oriented, and of course Reformed church, and if you’re in […]
