David Robertson sent me this link today of a recent interview he did on Premier Radio in London with the atheist blogger, Adrian Hayter. The program lasts 90 mins or so but what is interesting is the level of ignorance and prejudice expressed by Hayter as to basic Christianity. You might want to...

At the end of the month, March 30 and 31 to be exact, the University of Glasgow will be hosting a conference on Edwards in Scotland. I can't believe I missed this. Anyway, here's the schedule: 9.30-10.00 Registration (Atrium, Wolfson Medical Building) 10.00-11.00 Session 1: Plenary David Bebbington...

"From moral weakness of spirit, from timidity, from hesitation, from fear of men and dread of responsibility, strengthen us with courage to speak the truth as our ministry requires, with the strength that can yet speak in love and self-control; and alike from the weakness of hasty violence and the...
