Work and Leisure

I’ve been reading Leland Ryken’s book, Work and Leisure. In it, he defends the Puritans. Way to go! It’s pretty interesting if you get into it. Here’s a clip: The Reformers began by rejecting the medieval division of work into sacred and secular. To this they added the doctrine of vocation or calling, by which… Read More »

War in Iraq?

Dr. Greg Bahnsen on the subject of what constitutes a “Just War”. –> Mp3 Here Bahnsen says that he does not think the war in Iraq is a “defensive” war, hence, it was not a good decision. I still have not decided, but I see where he is coming from and I see how Christians… Read More »
