This looks fantastic! From Mark Thompson’s blog:

“Over two days, on 16–17 September, guests from around the world and all over Australia will come together at Moore College to engage afresh with the great Genevan Reformer and his theological legacy. Paul Helm of Regent College, Vancouver will speak [...]

The latest Themelios is out now…. In case you haven’t heard of it, it’s a theological journal sponsored by the Gospel Coalition.  And as a theological student – it’s a great resource!  This issues articles include:

There’s a certain slipperiness and jelly-like quality to what’s being called The New Calvinism. Terms like Reformed and Calvinist are wobbling around like they’ve been served up for dessert.  But is this a bad thing?

Even Brian McLaren’s getting in on the act and calling out the Calvinists (there must be [...]

Just came across this wonderful interview in which John Frame gives brief thoughts on topics like: blogging, systematic theology, Kevin Vanhoozer’s work, Inerrancy, classical music, and Scripture.  Check this one out for sure!

He’s a great and humble theologian, whose book on the Doctrine of the Knowledge of God has been really helpful [...]

“that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened so that you may know” Eph 1:18

This is a letter from Francis A. Schaeffer to Eleanore, she was a radical student in the 1960’s.  She has moved from drugs, to free sex, to terrorist politics, to Eastern religion.  She tried everything before coming to Christ, and now her past ideas and actions are giving her a sense of grief [...]

A couple of weeks ago I engaged in a comparison of Daniel 7-12 and 1 Enoch. It was an amazing journey into the world of academic scholarship. So many interesting views flying around, yet so little voice from the conservative corner. I wondered what happened to the reformed evangelical voice…?

From the latest issue of the Themelios journal: a great article by the historical theologian, Carl Trueman (visiting Australia next year), who writes about the great defender of the faith, J. Gresham Machen:
