Calvin on the Extent of the Atonement
Here’s a new book as a PDF that is “available [to the whole world] for a limited time as a free download“:
Paul Hartog. A Word for the World: Calvin on the Extent of the Atonement. Schaumburg, IL: Regular Baptist Press, 2009. 72 pp.
I haven’t read it yet, but I’m sure that it’s worth a careful look.
Paul Hartog is an associate professor at Faith Baptist Bible College and Theological Seminary (Ankeny, Iowa). He has earned MA and MDiv degrees in theological studies (Faith), an MA in history (Iowa State University), a ThM in Ethics (St. Andrew’s Theological College), and a PhD in New Testament and Early Christianity (Loyola University, Chicago). He has also ministered as an assistant pastor in Baptist churches in Slater, Iowa, Romeoville, Ill., and Grimes, Iowa.
Feedback welcome.
Some Thoughts about Writing
I just thoroughly enjoyed reading this informative, entertaining, overstated article (even though I do a lot of copy-editing!):
A Teachable Spirit: A Short Article and Interview
Here’s an NPR-like 7.5-minute interview with Justin Taylor re his two-page article “A Teachable Spirit.”
- The article was published in the June 2009 issue of Tabletalk.
- The interview aired on Moody radio’s Prime Time America earlier today at 4:08 CST.
Review of The Anchor Yale Bible Commentary Series
This appears in the latest issue of Themelios:
Review of Anchor Yale Bible commentary series (84 vols.) in Logos Bible Software. Themelios 34 (2009): 226–27.
Themelios 34:2
The latest issue of Themelios was just released this evening. It is available as a 129-page PDF and in HTML.

Carson on Prayer and Mission (Plus an Interview)
I just uploaded four new MP3s to the D. A. Carson archive. These are from the Evangelical Ministry Assembly conference held in London on June 24–26, 2009.
Carson preached a three-part series entitled “Prayer and Mission”:
- Part 1: Prayer Changes Things—Or Does It? (Exodus 32:1-14) | MP3 | June 24, 2009
- Part 2: Steady Prayer, Desperate Prayer, Private Prayer, Public Prayer (Exodus 32:15-35) | MP3 | June 25, 2009
- Part 3: Pray in Line with the Mind of God (Ephesians 3:14-21) | MP3 | June 26, 2009
Carson also was also interviewed for nearly fifty minutes by a lively British interviewer. The questions in the first sixteen minutes are personal, and the rest deal with various issues.
