Down the Pub with Lane Tipton

Mon, 14 May 2007 23:37:50 GMT

A conversation over a pint outside a London pub on a sunny spring day with Dr. Lane Tipton of Westminster Theological Seminary. Covering the relationship between the Bible and systematic theology, union with Christ in the New Testament and Calvin, justification and the New Perspective on Paul, and how to engage in theological disputes with godliness and humility. Highly informative, edifying, and easy to listen to.

Another book I’m looking forward to:

Revelation and Reason New Essays in Reformed Apologetics, Ed. K. Scott Oliphint & Lane G. Tipton (P&R, May 2007; ISBN#: 9-78087-55259-69), 360 pages.

Book Description:
The purpose of this collection of essays is to set in the foreground the necessity of exegetical and theological foundations for any Reformed, Christian apologetic. A Reformed apologetic is only Reformed to the extent that its tenets, principles, methodology, etc. are formed and re-formed by Scripture. It is our hope that this book will demonstrate the necessity of the truth of Scripture, and the implications of that truth, for apologetics. These essays are meant to spell out more clearly the need for, and the beauty of, an apologetic surrounded by the rich truths of the Reformed faith.

I’ve asked P&R to send me the TOC, but I haven’t received a response yet. If the TOC is what it was when listed online some time ago, here it is:
