The Links Strike Back

Reformation 21 has posted issue 2 of their online magazine. This September issue features two articles on the Emergent Church:
•What's Emerging in the Church? Postmodernity, The Emergent Church, and The Reformation
•Mother Church

This owes a hat tip to Jeff Downs. Now we finally know what he's been up to instead of blogging.

Video files from this year's OxBridge
have begun to be posted. As usual, most of the lectures were on C.S.
Lewis, but the overall theme was “Making All Things New: the Good, the
True, and the Beautiful in the 21st Century.” While there is a
fascinating collection of lectures already available (generally $8
each), the best is yet to come. On Day 6 of the conference they
re-enacted the famous debate between C.S. Lewis and Elizabeth Anscombe.
This is the debate that supposedly shattered Lewis and led him to
significantly edit Miracles.
As if that's not cool enough, they also convened in the University
Chapel of St. Mary for Joss Ackland's reading (re-enactment) of Lewis'
sermon The Weight of Glory.
Another noteworthy item will be the interview with Antony Flew by Gary
Habermas. Flew was present at the original debate between Lewis and
Anscombe.

The latest issue of the Journal for Biblical Manhood and Womanhood has been posted (PDF version is free!). It is entirely dedicated to responding to the recent Egalitarian work, Discovering Biblical Equality.
Though they don't respond to every chapter, this appears to be a rather
definitive critique of the best arguments offered by the Egalitarians.

Want free training on how to effectively engage people in conversation as winsome representatives of Christ? Greg Koukl will be teaching his Tactics in Defending the Faith
mentoring curriculum for video taping on September 10th in Rolling
Hills, CA. This half-day seminar (8am-2pm) is completely free of charge.

John MacArthur borrowed Phil Johnson's blog to make some powerful points about the Christian use of new media.
Since I don't think I've commented on it before, I should mention that
though I almost always learn something at PyroManiac, what I really
love about the blog is Phil's creative use of pyro-related graphics. He
deserves a cookie for integrating intelligence and creativity. As Amy
knows, I love Subway cookies. Mmmmm m….
