A few weeks back, I met with Tom Ascol while he was in Louisville for T4G and recorded this Mp3 interview. It’s a fast paced conversation (18 minutes) dealing with a host of pastoral and church issues including:

• What is the Gospel?
• What encourages you about the reformed resurgence in the SBC?
• What advice do you give to reformed leaning pastors?
• Is Calvinsim a hill that pastors should die on?
• Why was your membership resolution rejected by the Southern Baptist Convention?
• With all your concerns about the SBC, why does your church still cooperate?
• And much more …

Last week, I had the chance to interview Abraham Piper just before Band of Bloggers. It was a fun conversation. Abraham talked about his conversion, his work at Desiring God and being John Piper’s son.

Abraham writes for Desiring God and his own blog TwentyTwoWords.

12-Martin-Luther-King-Said.mp3

This podcast contains a recording of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. speaking at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary on April 19, 1961. The speech is more remarkable considering the context. Southern Baptists were not unified in their posture toward the Civil Rights movement and in 1961 the outcome was far from certain.

In this speech, you will hear Dr. King cast his vision for the church’s role in racial reconciliation. While it has become fashionable to find fault with his personal life and theological positions, there is much to appreciate in King’s prophetic voice.

• Read about the Civil Rights Movement
• Read about Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at Nobel Prize and Wikipedia
• Read about King’s visit from the SBTS Archives HT
