Real Christian
I am very excited about Todd Wilson’s excellent new book, Real Christian: Bearing the Marks of Authentic Faith. Todd and I go way back, having studied together under John Piper at The Bethlehem Institute back in our early days of seminary. Todd has a PhD from the University of Cambridge and is now senior pastor at […]
Jesus > Religion
An incredibly insightful observation by Jefferson Bethke in Jesus > Religion: I think the more focused Christians are on external behavior, the greater the possibility they are trying to make up for what they lack in their hearts. When we have no real transforming power of Jesus in our hearts, we hold up a list of external […]
The Meaning of the Resurrection for Believers and the Need to Finish the Great Commission
This is a message I gave several years ago at a staff devotional when I worked at Desiring God and Bethlehem Baptist Church. I’m in the process of posting a lot of my messages and articles online, and thought you might find this one helpful and relevant on the doctrine of the resurrection and the […]

I don’t think the JETS articles are online, but if you subscribe to JETS, check it out. Here is one of the most helpful […]
Your Obedience is Not Filthy Rags
Michael Kruger nails it at The Gospel Coalition: When it comes to our justification — our legal standing before God — our own good works are in no way the grounds of God’s declaration that we are “righteous.” Indeed, the gospel is good news because we are saved not by what we have done, but […]
Jesus' Absolute Calls to Discipleship
These are hard texts, but the are good news because they show that Jesus is God, and therefore worthy of all allegiance. For if Jesus is not God, he could not have called for absolute allegiance. But if he is God, then anything less than a call to absolute, unqualified allegience would have been a massive disservice […]
What is the Gospel?
On Easter, it is always good to refresh our understanding of the gospel so we can avoid the trap of being pulled away by additions to it that undermine our relationship with God. Here’s how I summarize it in a call-out box in What’s Best Next, in a chapter where I talk about the relationship between the […]
The Final Days of Jesus
In these final days before Easter, it would be a great idea to pick up my friend Justin Taylor’s excellent new book The Final Days of Jesus (co-authored with NT scholar Andreas Kostenberger). His book goes through the last week of Jesus’ life, culminating in the crucifixion and then the resurrection. We often think we “know […]
