Matt Chandler Seminar on Homosexuality
Beginning with an (accurate) acknowledgment that the Jennifer Knapp - Larry King Live interaction was not particularly profitable, Matt Chandler explains (in the first video) why he wanted to address the issue of homosexuality, even though it runs the risk of seeming to elevate one particular sin above others. In the first video, Chandler traces the creation-fall storyline in Genesis 2 and Romans 1, showing that heterosexual marriage was God's design and that homosexuality is an aspect of God "giving us over" to our idolatries. In the second presentation, Chalder gives six cogent, brief … [Read more...] about Matt Chandler Seminar on Homosexuality

Interview with Andy Naselli (Part 1)
I previously introduced Dr. Andy Naselli's important new book, Let Go and Let God? A Survey and Analysis of Keswick Theology, now available for pre-order from Logos.
