    Why Evil? Part 1 of 3

    Freddy Cardoza — 

    Evil is present in the world. It was seen in the face of Usama bin Laden. It is also seen in things like murder, child abuse, terrorism, and natural disasters. Many Christians and non-Christians don't understand why evil is present in the world. Here's why.

    Generous Charis

    Gary Manning Jr — 

    I grew up hearing and reading the Bible during the transition from the King James Version to NASB and NIV. In my church setting, the transition was mostly welcomed, except by a few godly old-timers who were certain that our prayers were more acceptable to God if they included a generous portion of thees, thous, and Elizabethan-era verb endings. The KJV had the interesting effect of making some very ordinary words into technical religious terms, since the words dropped out of ordinary use in the centuries since the KJV was translated. One of those words is grace. Interestingly, the NASB, the NIV, and even (often) the NLT continue to use this word to translate the Greek word 峎庣 (charis), even though the meaning of grace in English has changed over the centuries.

    Shame Removed; Honor Received, Part 2

    Matthew Williams — 

    Jesus' interactions with people in the Gospel of John...and today This is the second part of a series that looks at events in the Gospel of John in which we find Jesus interacting with various people who need helpphysical help and spiritual help. As we look closely at these individuals, we will often see that they are dealing with shame, though this theme is usually hidden in the historical background of the first century. Thus, over the course of this series, we will explore how Jesus interacts with them not only to take away their shame, but also to raise them up and give them honor!

    What Being a Theology Professor Has Taught Me 51勛圖窪蹋 the Church

    Jeffrey Volkmer — 

    I am now in my second year as a faculty member at 51勛圖窪蹋s Talbot School of Theology. Prior to this, Ive spent the last 16 years of my life doing primarily two things: 1) attending three different universities, and; 2) working for local churches in a variety of capacities. You would think that after that amount of time invested in both theological higher education and church service, I would have learned quite a bit about the local church. Yet, this is anything but the case and not because the curriculum of my seminary lacked adequate focus on ecclesiology. Rather, teaching at a Christian university has opened up an amazing new curriculum for me and afforded me a unique and fresh vista from which to view the Church and learn from one of her most precious treasures young people and in this case, undergraduate students. I would like to share some of the greatest lessons this new curriculum has taught me as I seek to teach undergraduates.

    Teaching Deeper, Part III

    Kevin Lawson — 

    Two months ago I raised a concern about a problem some churches struggle with in seeing limited impact of their teaching ministries in the lives of those who participate. I talked about some ways this problem has tended to be addressed, and my own conviction that there is a need for a better model or approach to our teaching if we hope to see real growth occur. Last month I introduced the basic ideas of right-handed teaching and discussed the first half of the model. This month I want to continue and complete my discussion of the model and then begin looking at how it works together.

    Inertial Atheism

    Rob Price — 

    Denis Diderot (1713-84), editor and primary author of the massive18,000 pages!and massively influential Encyclop矇die, has been called the pivotal figure of the entire 18th century. One of the pivotal moments in Diderots own career came in his conversion from deism to atheism. And central to this conversion were the implications he drew from Newtons formulation of the principle of inertia.

    Justification and the New Perspective

    Alan Gomes — 

    The great reformer Martin Luther once declared that the biblical teaching of justification by faith alone is the doctrine by which the church stands or falls. Historically, Protestants have understood justification to mean that God declares us not guilty for our sins because Christ bore them in our place, and also that God declares us as being positively righteous in his sight because of Christs righteousness imputed to us, i.e., credited to our accounts. However, a recent teaching called the New Perspective on Paul has called into question the traditional Protestant understanding of justification.

    The Deep Things of God

    Rob Price — 

    It could have turned out badly. Back in spring 2010 I decided sight unseen to assign Fred Sanderss The Deep Things of God as a textbook in my fall Theology I class. The publisher said that the book should be available by mid-August. Thats about one week before the start of the semester. What if there were delays? And regardless of delays, what if the book showed up and was lousy? What would I tell my students?
