There is an enormous amount shallow and moralistic material on the market for children. How refreshing to now of this outstanding resource. The Jesus Storybook Bible Deluxe edition is a must if you have young children or grandchildren. Why? These stories teach children that God is the hero of the Bible and that each story unfailingly points to Christ as King and Redeemer. The deluxe edition features the outstanding storytelling talents of British actor David Suchet (yes, you Poirot fans heard me correctly – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Suchet).

Check this out to read an excellent example of what happens when church expansion (numbers) replaces church growth (edification of the saints that the saints may do the work of the ministry).

Andy Naselli (PhD – BJU; working on 2nd PhD at Trinity) has written a very helpful article on “free will”. It is practically impossible to overstate the importance of the question for understanding the Christian faith. Read is carefully over several days with Bible in hand. Andy is a good scholar and passionate Christian servant of Christ.
Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-92) was England’s best-known preacher for most of the second half of the nineteenth century. In 1854, just four years after his conversion, Spurgeon, then only 20, became pastor of London’s famed New Park Street Church (formerly pastored by the famous Baptist theologian John Gill). The congregation quickly outgrew their building, moved to Exeter Hall, then to Surrey Music Hall. In these venues Spurgeon frequently preached to audiences numbering more than 10,000—all in the days before electronic amplification. In 1861 the congregation moved permanently to the newly constructed Metropolitan Tabernacle (now pastored by Peter Masters).
Here is an sermon preach by the “Prince of Preachers” on the text found in John 6:37.
The Sum and Substance of all Theology
While you are at it, check out the great resources provided by Phil Johnson. He has done a great service to the Christian community.
John Owen is one of the most important English speaking theologians who ever lived. Present day Christians would do well to familiarize themselves with this important Christian.
The recent decision by the Episcopal Church in the USA ending its moratorium on the election and consecration of openly gay bishops is unmistakable evidence that all the talk of “dialogue” by the radical left is often hollow rhetoric. This is a clash of worldviews, one Biblical the other largely secular, whereby “right” agendas are “courageously” followed regardless of the consequences. The clash is theological at its core.
