The crackdown in China on various Christian churches

  • Early Rain Covenant church is Reformed Presbyterian
  • We can pray for our brothers and sisters
  • The Chinese governments is still hostile to Christianity



Overcoming Sin and Temptation

  • Book by John Owen with editors Justin Taylor and Kelly Kapic
  • Very wholesome book
  • John Owen is the opposite of a perfectionist (in the doctrinal sense that we can become perfectionists)
  • One of the blessings that comes from reading this is that he hates sin intensely



Harmartiology

  • “Anatrepo” refers to the destructive effect of false teaching on wholesome Christian living
  • 2 Tim. 2:18, Tit. 1:11

What is Plodcast?

In the Plodcast, pastor Douglas Wilson covers anything related to theology and culture with his usual entertaining style. Whether it involves talking about Chestertonian Calvinism (not an oxymoron), the benefits of a Classical Christian education (not in that order), or the latest pomosexuality farce, the plodcast aims to apply all of Christ to all of life, for all the world. Douglas Wilson is an evangelical, postmill, Calvinist, Reformed, and Presbyterian (pretty much in that order) and is politically to the right of Jeb Stuart.
