 For those of us who spend time on the web over the weekends, consider using at least some of your time to grow in your knowledge of God’s Word and His world. Here’s a brief, curated list of videos and articles that I found helpful this past week. Enjoy!  

 

Study the Book of Zechariah        

In case you haven’t had time to get ready for tomorrow’s sermon on the book of Zechariah, consider checking out one of the resources I referenced in this article.  

 

Should We Watch for Signs from God?

Here’s a helpful Q&A from John Piper on why it’s unhelpful to be on the lookout for signs from God.  

 

FIRST-PERSON: Theological liberalism in the SBC?

Here’s a helpful follow-up to Sunday night’s TableTalk conversation at PBC. Rhett Wilson discusses the accusations of liberalism infiltrating the SBC. The whole article is worth a read, but I especially loved his summary:  

Yes, Johnny Hunt may have a different understanding of soteriology than Tom Nettles. First Baptist Jacksonville, Fla., may approach evangelism differently than Capitol Hill Baptist Church in D.C. A professor at Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary may be a premillennialist and one at SBTS a postmillennialist. One SBC pastor learns from Chuck Swindoll, Charles Stanley and Tony Evans while another listens to John MacArthur, R.C. Sproul, and Alistair Begg. A rural church in Fort Payne, Ala., may have a woman teach men in Sunday School or serve as a worship leader, while another church in Benton Harbor, Mich., does not.  

A Tennessee Southern Baptist church appreciates a Sandy Creek revivalism heritage while a Virginia one embraces the Charlestonian Baptist stream. One pastor joins The Founders Ministry while another links arms with the Conservative Baptist Network. Churches may disagree over various issues of polity and practice. We have different ideas about how to respond to racial issues, critical race theory, Donald Trump or Joe Biden. But the people who lead our denominational entities, teach at our seminaries and serve as trustees in our institutions are no theological liberals.
