Is John Piper Reformed? Or Holding The Coalition Together (Updated)
This morning my friend Kevin DeYoung (listen to the Office Hours interview with Kevin here) makes some arguments in defense of a broader definition of the adjective Reformed. This question is at the heart of why the HB exists and and why I wrote . . . Continue reading →
Everything Does And Does Not Come Down To Triperspectivalism

Would You Know A Bad-Faith Argument If You Saw One?

Understanding The Duplex Regimen Would Also Help

Review: The Lord’s Prayer: Learning from Jesus on What, Why, and How to Pray by Kevin DeYoung
Most of us know that we should pray more often. We do not need a book to tell us this. We only need to consider our own daily prayers to see our failures. If we already know this, then why bother reading . . . Continue reading →
