Old Enough to Be Baptized – Here is one many Baptists struggle with: When should we baptize children who profess faith? “Those of you who are from traditions that baptize infants may not appreciate the significance of this issue. But those of us who believe that baptism is for those who have made a personal confession of faith, it gets a little tricky.”

Abusing Sufficiency – Nick writes about the doctrine of the sufficiency of Scripture and some of the ways it has been abused. He shows several things it doesn’t mean.
