Free Stuff Fridays
This week’s Free Stuff Friday is sponsored by the Ockenga Store at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. This store offers a wide selection of audio resources from conferences and events held at the seminary. It also has a variety of educational resources including Semlink, the distance learning program at GCTS, and Dimensions, education from seminary professors for the building of the church. It also distributes PulpitTalk, a quarterly audio journal published by distinguished preaching faculty, including Dr. Haddon Robinson.

The store is offering 5 prize packages, each of which includes:

  • Preaching to the Heart by Timothy Keller – How can we change people’s lives with our preaching without simply providing information on the one hand or working on people’s emotions on the other? As preachers we are called upon to bridge the distance between the solid Truth of scripture and shifting demands of our congregation. How can we remain faithful to the task to which we are called? Each week, Tim Keller works to meet this demand to his own congregation. In this series he helps us to take a hard look at preaching that impacts the congregation with biblical accuracy.
  • CASKET EMPTY: God’s Plan of Redemption Throughout History by Dr. Carol Kaminski and David Palmer – These lectures are intended to help you grasp the “big picture” of both the Old and the New Testaments and understand how God’s redemptive story progresses through history and is fulfilled in the Messiah.
  • Theology of the Pentateuch by Dr. Gordon Hugenberger, Senior Pastor Park Street Church, Boston, MA – The primary objective of this course is to introduce the student to the theology of the Pentateuch, stressing its foundational relevance for a proper understanding of the whole of biblical revelation.

In addition to the giveaway products being on sale, other sale items this month include “Greek I” with Dr. Scott Hafemann which is normally $50 but only $25 until the end of February. Tim Keller’s “Evangelism and Church Planting in Postmodern Cities” is normally $20 and is on sale for $5 and Michael Horton’s recent conference “The Ministry: A Fellowship of Receivers and Deliverers” is priced at $5 from its normal $12.

  • Authority

    How Men Can Use Their Authority Well

    There are few topics that have proven trickier to navigate than the topic of authority. We know we need authority to function as families, churches, and nations, yet there is something deep within our sinful humanity that causes us to rebel against it wherever it exists. We both want it and despise it.

  • The Most Neglected Element of Worship

    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?
