It’s been a while since I’ve done a weekly review post; but since I’ve listened to some rather impressive things this week, I wanted to fill you in with the goods:
Upon recommendation I bought Flame’s latest album entitled Our World Redeemed. Amazing Christian rap. I especially like the last track, Joyful Noise, and number seven, [...]

Charles Latham in his antifolk song My Perfect Church offers this bit of truth-in-jesting cynicism concerning spirituality:
I pray from my toilet seat, “Make my holy life complete”
My god hears me when I speak, can yours say the same? My god lets me have my way, I can pray for it not [...]
Here’s a mix I cooked up for you of some popular tunes which I’ve been enjoying over the last couple of months. The mix progression centers on avoiding key clashes, a new skill I’m trying to pick up. So, those who are super sensitive to keys and key clashes, please, if you hear dodgey keys [...]
You can download Phil Wickham’s latest album Singalong at his web site. The album features 15 songs recorded live and, honestly, creates a really nice chilled, acoustic, worshipful atmosphere…all for the cost of zero dollars. It’s got classics like Nothing But The Blood, Come Thou Fount, How Great Thou Art, I Have Decided To Follow [...]
I was surprised and delighted to find a sermon/talk hiding in my mp3 player in the Capitol Hill Baptist Church podcast folder. The speaker: my pastor, Andy Davis. He took leave last summer to work on a book on sanctification which I guess he’s had incubating for quite some time. Almost a month ago, at [...]

The point has been made that the reason people from every tribe, language, people and nation are seen worshiping around Jesus’ throne in Revelation 5 is [...]
The first two messages in Mark Driscoll’s series “Religion Saves and Nine Other Misconceptions”: birth control and humor/making jokes. The one on birth control should be required listening in pre-marital counseling. As for the making jokes topic, Driscoll verbally body slams every group possible while ending with guidelines on how to and when to make [...]
It looks like it’s going to be a fun semester for chapel messages at Southeastern. I’m particularly excited (and you should be too) to hear John Lennox of the University to Oxford throw down. Just look at his jolly face…and you haven’t heard him speak yet. What a gracious, calculated (yes, pun intended–considering he’s a [...]
Below is the audio from the plenary sessions of the C. S. Lewis conference recently hosted at Southeastern (October 26-27, 2007). I was unable to attend and have not yet listened to the audio in its entirety, but am hosting it here (with ID3 tags for those, like myself, wishing to put the files on [...]
