Ask R.C. Live – Today at 4 PM EST, R.C. Sproul will be answering questions via Twitter. You can click the link to get more information.

What Are Gospel Issues? – D.A. Carson takes on a phrase we may use a little too freely: “gospel issues.”

The Funniest Joke – Here’s the funniest one-liner of the year: “I decided to sell my Hoover … well it was just collecting dust.” You can read the other finalists as well.

See The Conqueror – This is a great hymn, and I do believe we may soon be singing it at Grace Fellowship Church (sans the bridge).

College Doesn’t Change Your Heart – College doesn’t change your heart; it reveals it. Sammy Rhodes writes from the perspective of a campus minister.

The Heart of Family Worship – This looks like it will be an interesting series on family worship–one of those topics where we can always use a refresh.

Sin is guerrilla warfare that is deadly. Just when you think you are in control, it seeks to devour you.

  • Authority

    How Men Can Use Their Authority Well

    There are few topics that have proven trickier to navigate than the topic of authority.

    The Most Neglected Element of Worship

    There are some elements of public worship that receive a great deal of attention. These elements are taught, practiced, rehearsed, and perfected until they are as good as they can be. In most churches, this includes the music, of course, and often the preaching. Why do these receive so much attention?
