CCEF Marriage Conference
I’ve always wanted to go to this marriage conference with my wife. If you can make it, I highly recommend it!
Solo Sex
Dream guys, celebrity magazines, sexual fantasies, masturbation, pornography…what’s so bad about these? No one gets hurt, right? Aren’t they better than indulging in actual sexual indecencies with other people? Check out this short audio from CCEF faculty member Winston Smith on what’s sinful (if anything) about these “victimless” indulgences.
Books I'm Reading
Missional/Cultural
- Culture Making, Crouch – a significant contribution to discussion on Christ and Culture, emphasizing not so much the transformation of existing culture, but the creation of new culture.
- Transforming Worldviews, Paul Hiebert – anything by Hiebert will rock your mind and change your missiology…for good.
Practical
- A Praying Life, Miller – one of the most realistic, encouraging, prayer inspiring books I have read in a long time.
- You Can Change, Chester – an accessible, transforming book on gospel centered change
- Relationships: A Mess Worth Making, Lane – great book on how the gospel shapes and renews all kinds of relationships from family to friends.
- How People Change, Lane – more nuanced, technical book on how the gospel can lead us into cross-centered change
Theological
- Justification, N.T. Wright – thoughtful reflections on Justification that aim at keeping the gospel central, clarifying previous statements on justification, and a much needed emphasis on the Spirit in Justification.
- Christ, our Righteousness, Seifrid – excellent contribution to the NPP debate, particularly his contribution to justification as resurrection, not imputed righteousness
- Romans, Moo – superb commentary on Romans
