Doing a two week series answering those who constantly assert that the Gospel of Mark presents a “simply human Jesus” over against, say, John. Here are the first two installments.
Went long today, so get a deep seat in the proverbial saddle! Spent quite some time on the Max Lucado debacle wherein he apologizes for having spoken the truth 17 years ago—a truth that is now “hurtful.” Then we moved on to the Ravi Zacharias scandal and developments therein. Finally I finished up with about half an hour on last

Started off with Showbread’s “Dear John Piper” song, going through the lyrics and identifying the sources that led to this vicious construction of a burning straw man.

Started off talking about the new “Preacher’s Bible” from Grace To You which I have now dubbed “The Assault Bible.” Light hearted discussion, I assure you.
