Here’s the deal; between work, life, & ministries, we have to put The Modern Post on hold indefinitely.

But, you can still keep up with us individually.

Ralph is a graphic designer, and is training to be a pastor and on the Uganda team at Rockharbor Church.

Dustin is a singer by trade, as well as leads worship and the college group at his church.

Nick is on the Media & Communications team at Mars Hill Church in Seattle. He is also a deacon and leads a community group.

We hope our posts have pointed you to Jesus. We look forward to picking this up again when the time is right.

Gratefully,

TMP

It’s great to be reminded of how much is packed into two verses you might otherwise glaze over. How often do we do any of these?

“Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you—unless you believed in vain.”—1 Corinthians 15:1-2

• preach it
• hear it preached
• deliver it
• receive it
• believe it
• be saved by it
• remember it
• remind others of it
• stand in it
• hold fast to it

Here is part one of my Resurgence interview with Dr. Michael Horton from Westminster Seminary in California. Dr. Horton is one of the hosts of The White Horse Inn and the author of several books; most recently Christless Christianity and The Gospel-Driven Life.

This is a brilliant article by Kevin DeYoung looking at what is becoming an increasingly popular way to talk about the Gospel. It is in response to a recent interview with Shane Claiborne in Esquire.

DeYoung observes that there is a pattern:

1. It usually starts with an apology.
2. Then there is an appeal to God as love.
3. Thirdly there is an invitation to join God on His mission in the world.
4. Finally there is ambivalence about eternity.

What are the problems with this? Read on to find out.
