D. A. Carson on “The Gospel of Jesus Christ”

August 1, 2007 by Andy Naselli

An edited manuscript of D. A. Carson‘s “The Gospel of Jesus Christ (1 Corinthians 15:1-19)” is now available at The Gospel Coalition site. Carson preached this message in May at The Gospel Coalition’s first conference: video | audio.

Other resources at TGC site: articles (including an RSS feed for new articles), audio & video (including interviews), foundational documents.

The Gospel Coalition Interviews

July 28, 2007 by Andy Naselli

The Gospel Coalition now has dozens of short video interview clips available. Four men, at least in the interviews posted so far, answer various questions: D. A. Carson, Tim Keller, John Piper, and Mark Driscoll. I reserved a few hours today to watch these, and it was well worth the time—regardless of whether one completely agrees with every viewpoint expressed. Some of the clips are especially thoughtful and moving, especially those by Carson and Piper. (Cf. TGC’s articles, audio & video, foundational documents, and stakeholders.)

Piper on Romans 8:18-25

May 25, 2007 by Andy Naselli

I’ve heard dozens of John Piper‘s sermons on MP3, but yesterday at the The Gospel Coalition conference, I had the privilege of hearing Piper preach in person for the first time.

It was the most moving sermon I’ve ever heard Piper preach. It compelled me to worship my sovereign God, long to be with Him, and hate what He hates.
The Gospel Coalition’s site will have audio and video from the conference available for free in about three weeks, but Desiring God has already posted the manuscript and MP3 of Piper’s sermon entitled “The Triumph of God in the New Heavens and the New Earth,” an exposition of Romans 8:18-25.
The MP3 does not include D. A. Carson‘s introduction in which he gave an anecdote about D. Martyn Lloyd Jones ‘ powerful preaching and then described John Piper as the modern-day Lloyd Jones.

CCGG MP3s

April 27, 2007 by Andy Naselli

Scott Aniol just announced that he has made available the MP3s and PDF notebooks for the past one-day annual conferences at his church called “The Conference on the Church for God’s Glory.” I profited from attending the first two conferences in May 2003 and 2004.

T4G Video

April 23, 2007 by Andy Naselli

I thoroughly enjoyed watching the latest “Together for the Gospel” video this morning. I found it both edifying and enjoyable to watch Mark Dever, Al Mohler, Lig Duncan, and C. J. Mahaney interact with each other for over fifty minutes!

The Gospel Coalition

March 9, 2007 by Andy Naselli

This week Dr. Carson gave permission to Justin Taylor to post on his blog an announcement that has not been public knowledge up to this point. More details are forthcoming, but at least this much can be released now: Dr. Carson and his good friend Pastor Tim Keller are teaming up with some forty-five other pastors to rally around the gospel, hence their name: The Gospel Coalition. The first conference is a little over two months away: May 23-24, 2007. Their website, www.TheGospelCoalition.org, is in the process of being built; it currently contains information only for this upcoming conference. Registration is limited; the cutoff is at about 550 people. See Justin Taylor’s post for more details.
