You’ve Got Lies
Beth Spraul, who attends Capitol Hill Baptist Church, has written a very good article about chick flicks and the lies they brings.


A Review of N.T. Wright’s Justification
Guy Waters has a thorough and excellent review of N.T. Wright’s latest book Justification: God’s Plan and Paul’s Vision. It all leads to this unsurprising conclusion: “What is clear from Justification is that the fundamental concern of Wright’s Reformational readers remains unallayed and firmly in place: Wright’s views on justification have parted company with the teaching of the apostle Paul.”


The Trinity in Contemporary Worship Songs
I enjoyed listening to this lecture by Lester Ruth: “Lex Amandi, Lex Orandi: The Trinity in the Most Used Contemporary Christian Worship Songs.” He analyzes the most popular contemporary Christian worship songs and goes looking for evidence of trinitarian theology.

  • Dumb Ways To Die

    So Many Dumb Ways To Die

    Do you remember the catchy little earworm “Dumb Ways To Die?” In what was undoubtedly one of history’s most successful public awareness campaigns, Metro Trains of Melbourne, Australia, reached millions of people around the world with their message of railroad safety. They did this through an irresistibly snappy song.
