Articles Collection cover image

This is an oldie but a goodie. I looked all over and couldn’t find an authoritative account of where it came from and neither could I track down an “official” file. I suspect it is fairly old as from the sound quality it seems likely that it was taken from a cassette. Because it was already uploaded on several servers I went ahead and uploaded it to mine as well. If anyone can point me to an official or copyrighted version, I’ll gladly link to that one instead of this one!

In the meantime, I give you a sermon on “hairology,” the theology of hair. Dr. G.I. Barber delivers what is an exceptional sermon (and fairly short one, thankfully) on what the Bible has to say about hair.

    When It Feels Like the Temptation Is Coming From Outside

    No Christian tradition is perfect, which means that every Christian tradition has its own strengths and weaknesses. Every tradition has areas in which it presses hard to understand and live according to biblical truth, but then also areas in which it inevitably fails to completely match Scripture’s teaching and emphases.
