An Open Letter to John Piper
Dr. Piper, brother, grace to you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places.

I’m guessing that as you read this for the first time (if you read it at all), it might seem just a little strange, and how appropriate considering my...
The DNA of Teardrops
I have been crying today, and not a soft, meek and mild kind of cry. No, I have been sobbing. A hypostatitic biology of sorts. It’s a strange cry, you see, because my tears contain 100% joy and 100% pain. Below is a letter from Pastor Yusef Nadarkhani, the infamous Iranian pastor of late who was facing execution for charges of ‘blasphemy’. As I read the letter he wrote to his...

The snow covers many a dunghill; so doth prosperity many a rotten heart.

Christianity is no more a bondage to men than wings are to birds.
– O. Palmer Robertson
Blood-earnest. This word should define the way in which you share the gospel. If it is not, you may be commiting the sin of communicating truth in a way that says “This truth isn’t worth what I claim it is”.
God himself is the necessary subject matter of our preaching, in his majesty and...

Best Theology Books of 2011
Again, I know I’m late, but oh how I’m fashionable.
These books are, in my opinion (which is the MOST humble opinion of all) the best theology books of 2011. How I define ‘best’ may not be how some think of ‘best’. Best, in my mind, doesn’t mean ‘most enjoyable’, or ‘most rigorously academic’, etc. It’s more of a combination...

Classic
I am by no means a conspiracy theorist. This video, however, has given me pause both times I’ve watched it. Thoughts?
This dude really went off with the wordplay. Obviously, as Christians, we aren’t impressed with what he is communicating, but even in such ignorance, there is truth. We must understand and interpret what we see and hear, and we must do so in a way that goes beyond superficial. So, what do we see?

Spurgeon and Justin Taylor
I believe that every particle of dust that dances in the sunbeam does not move an atom more or less than God wishes—
that every particle of spray that dashes against the steamboat has its orbit, as well as the sun in the heavens—
that the chaff from the hand of the winnower is steered as the stars in their courses.
The creeping of an aphid over the rosebud is as much fixed as the march...

I know I’m late but….I don’t care. I’m going to do a ‘Best of…’ for 2011. The categories will be varied and sometimes silly. Today we will do producers. My favorite producer(s) of 2011 are:
I don’t know the guys name. I think it’s DivineMusicGP or something like that. The guy who produced the bulk of SO’s album, So It Begins. Dude merked...
