The Potency of Right Worship. An exposition of Psalm 97 from Credenda|Agenda, showing its importance for gaining an understanding of right worship.

Friend, pastor, and former blogging partner Ken has started a new blog with a seminary friend of his (Jeff): The Moose are in Need of Reproof. Some great installments thus far.I've been pleasantly surprised that Dr. Gordon's book, Why Johnny Can't Preach: The Media Have Shaped the Messengers has found its way onto several best-book lists this year, including Challies' and Monergism's. No, I shamefully haven't read (or even purchased) this book yet.
