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. Thoughts on Ferguson: By Voddie Baucham – Baucham says: “In the end, the best lesson my children can learnom Ferguson is not that they need to be on the lookout for white cops. It is far more important that I use this teachable moment to remind them that “God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.”

2. Worship Is an Act of Reversal: By Joseph Tenney – Tenney notes: “We gather to pray and commune and proclaim and teach and sing to stir our hearts to stop hoping and clinging to what’s transient, and to deepen our love for him and strengthen our bond as brothers and sisters. We gather to fight for ordered love to resound in our hearts.”

3. Recovering Scripture: By Michael Horton – Horton says: “recently gave a talk where I walked through the arguments for the sufficiency of Scripture. It was amazing to me how few of the people—in a conservative evangelical church—had never heard anything on the subject. This is a problem.”

4. Embracing Evolution: But Which Model?: By Mark Jones – Jones says: “For my part, there are simply too many unanswered questions for me to even begin to think about synthesizing Reformed theology with the theories of evolution described above.”

5. What Do We Mean By “Missional Living”?: By Scott Sauls and Brad Andrews – Sauls and Andrews say: “While there are many ways to live missional in our cities, these in particular have an eye and ear towards the age we live in. They place the onus on our churches to collaborate with culture rather than cede from it. The hope is that as we pursue this kind of missional living, our churches will, in the power of the Spirit, make Jesus, as Ray Ortlund has said, ‘non-­ignorable in our cities.'”
