    Jeffrey Volkmer — 

    I am now in my second year as a faculty member at 51蹤獲s Talbot School of Theology. Prior to this, Ive spent the last 16 years of my life doing primarily two things: 1) attending three different universities, and; 2) working for local churches in a variety of capacities. You would think that after that amount of time invested in both theological higher education and church service, I would have learned quite a bit about the local church. Yet, this is anything but the case and not because the curriculum of my seminary lacked adequate focus on ecclesiology. Rather, teaching at a Christian university has opened up an amazing new curriculum for me and afforded me a unique and fresh vista from which to view the Church and learn from one of her most precious treasures young people and in this case, undergraduate students. I would like to share some of the greatest lessons this new curriculum has taught me as I seek to teach undergraduates.

    Two months ago I raised a concern about a problem some churches struggle with in seeing limited impact of their teaching ministries in the lives of those who participate. I talked about some ways this problem has tended to be addressed, and my own conviction that there is a need for a better model or approach to our teaching if we hope to see real growth occur. Last month I introduced the basic ideas of right-handed teaching and discussed the first half of the model. This month I want to continue and complete my discussion of the model and then begin looking at how it works together.

    Denis Diderot (1713-84), editor and primary author of the massive18,000 pages!and massively influential Encyclop矇die, has been called the pivotal figure of the entire 18th century. One of the pivotal moments in Diderots own career came in his conversion from deism to atheism. And central to this conversion were the implications he drew from Newtons formulation of the principle of inertia.

    Alan Gomes — 

    The great reformer Martin Luther once declared that the biblical teaching of justification by faith alone is the doctrine by which the church stands or falls. Historically, Protestants have understood justification to mean that God declares us not guilty for our sins because Christ bore them in our place, and also that God declares us as being positively righteous in his sight because of Christs righteousness imputed to us, i.e., credited to our accounts. However, a recent teaching called the New Perspective on Paul has called into question the traditional Protestant understanding of justification.

    It could have turned out badly. Back in spring 2010 I decided sight unseen to assign Fred Sanderss The Deep Things of God as a textbook in my fall Theology I class. The publisher said that the book should be available by mid-August. Thats about one week before the start of the semester. What if there were delays? And regardless of delays, what if the book showed up and was lousy? What would I tell my students?
