    • Great message, Dr. Clark! Thanks for being so clear on the gospel and our need to go into battle with feet shod with the gospel of peace. Also, thank you for giving the historical background to the HC… and also telling us of the opposition that came from odd sources (e.g., Oliander).

      I agree with Leon’s comment above.

      I am another one who has been greatly helped by you over the years. Thank you for taking time to answer questions and steering me in the right direction re: books to read, etc. People here in my town have been helped much by your life and ministry as a result. It amazes me that you always take time to help.

      Though we are about the same age, I have a high respect for you. Thank you for giving clear and accurate teaching that helps me to hold to the faith in simplicity.

      May the Lord richly and greatly bless you in the years ahead!

      P.S. Thanks to WSCAL for doing this very important conference! I still think the BC is the best kept secret the Reformed world has ever had. Lisa and I are hoping to begin a home Bible study, simply going through the BC.

  1. I’m continuing a (bad?) post-Conference habit by watching the Q and A first. Then on to Dr. Clark’s lecture. This day at the office is just flying by! (I’m getting some real work done, too.)

  2. Dr. Clark,

    They block all major services like Vimeo, Youtube, etc. The smaller ones fall through the cracks. I can watch videos on Ligonier’s website because they use their own streaming software.
