25 Facts on the Importance of Fathers – Here’s Joe Carter doing what Joe Carter does.

Ecclesiology of the New Calvinism – I certainly don’t agree with all this author says, but I did benefit from his take on New Calvinist ecclesiology (based on the book Creature of the Word). He writes from a confessional Dutch Reformed perspective.
