Credo’s Cache

Each week we will be highlighting important resources. Check back each Friday to see what we have dug up for you. From this week’s cache:

1. Jonathan Edwards: A Missional Theologian: By David Dunham – Dunham notes: “Long before it was cool to be missional, Jonathan Edwards had a burden for Christian social care. His burden was informed, however, by a greater concern for the glory of God. Such a model of missional engagement is needed today.”

2. Dealing with Demons: By Eowyn Stoddard – Stoddard notes: “As Christians, we can be sure of the existence of Satan and demons because the Bible plainly depicts them as fallen angels who work in the world to oppose God and his people, and deceive and blind unbelievers to the truth of the gospel.”

3. As Cool As the Other Side of a Calvinist: By John Piper – Piper notes: “If Calvinism isn’t relevant for our life today — even the mundane details of our life — we should reject and ignore it. Sadly, I think most people make that judgment without ever really asking the question.”

4. The Road to Apostasy: By Erik Raymond – Raymond says: “This path has been walked many times. People who have watched it can see the danger of simple negligence. We must battle for delight in Christ even when our heart seems cold. We must continue to wear out a path to the cross to preach the reality of the gospel to our hearts. We need to have the beauty of Christ arrest our affections so that he makes all competition seem puny in comparison.”

5. The Dark Side of Christian Celebrity: By Tim Challies – Challies notes: “Let’s be clear: Some of our celebrities forfeit their right to be admired. Some of them take advantage of our goodwill and commit gross sin. But many others we demolish on the basis of rumor or hearsay or angry former friends and colleagues.”
