T4G – Wrapup

No sooner had the T4G ‘08 conference wrapped up than I jumped in a van with a pack of guys from my church and headed straight home. We made it back to Toronto in pretty good time and with fewer adventures than on the way down. I enjoyed talking to the guys about their impressions of the conference and benefited from debriefing with them. There were lots of laughs and lots of good talks. Though there was a variety of …

T4G – C.J. Mahaney

As with the first Together for the Gospel Conference, the final session of T4G ‘08 went to C.J. Mahaney. He opted to speak from Philippians 1:3 and preached a message that was pastoral in tone—a pastoral message seeking to tend to the souls of pastors. There is no true pastoral ministry apart from proclaiming the gospel and doctrinal precision and in this conference pastors have been challenged by these things. But the ministry also demands personal holiness, godly affections, and …

T4G – Day 3 Photos

Here is another gallery of photographs from the conference. Most of these are from day three of the conference, though a couple are remnants from day two: Worship. C.J. Mahaney preaching… …and preaching some more. John Piper preaching. John Piper responding to questions on the panel. John Piper delivers the Word like he might deliver a pizza. Dr. Mohler preaching. C.J. praying. Worship with Bob Kauflin. And a few more photos of the times of worship… Photos are courtesy of …

T4G – John Piper

This morning we received the last of the free books. On our seats were copies of Christ & Culture Revisited by D.A. Carson (just printed!), Worship Matters by Bob Kauflin, The Future of Justification by John Piper and one of the smaller editions of the ESV. The first session of the morning featured John Piper who really needs no introduction. He sought to answer this question: How does the supremacy of Christ create radical Christian sacrifice? If Piper’s ministry to …

T4G – Al Mohler

I received an email earlier today reminding me of a dinner engagement I had forgotten about completely. I agreed to it some time ago and didn’t bring my Outlook calendar with me. It turned out to be a great meal with excellent food and pretty good company too. We returned to the convention center to find a couple of new books: Culture Shift by Al Mohler and the newly published In My Place Condemned He Stood by Mark Dever and …

T4G – Day 2 Photos

Here are some more photographs from the conference—these ones from day two. Worshiping through song. Worshiping the Lord together. John MacArthur receiving a medallion commemorating 25 years since the release of the first volume of the MacArthur New Testament Commentary series. There are more photos after the jump (i.e. after you click on the link to continue reading). I wanted to be sensitive to those who have slower internet connections… John MacArthur preaching the word. John MacArthur and a fan. …

T4G – R.C. Sproul

I had a rather long and interesting (but good!) lunch today. A little while ago I read on Thabiti Anyabwile’s blog that he never actually orders at restaurants anymore, but instead asks the server to just get something he or she thinks Thabiti would like. I ate today at an Italian place and really didn’t know what to order. So I just told the server to surprise me (but not with anything containing fish). It was only later that I …
