$50: New Attitude 2008

New Attitude 08
I received an email on Monday from Jo Medler, Event Planning Assistant of Sovereign Grace Ministries concerning a special discounted SBTS/Boyce students rate for the New Attitude 2008 conference:

I am pleased to tell you that it has been decided to offer a discounted fee to SBTS/Boyce students and the rate will stay the same as last year at $50. However, it will take a little while to set up a special link for this service but I will keep your email on file and as soon as the registration link is ready for use I will let you know.

You heard it here first!
SBTS & Boyce College students will be able to register for New Attitude at only $50!

Stay tuned for the link for the special registration page ;-)

Piper at Passion’s OneDay conferences

3 John Piper - Passion conferences messages from the Desiring God DVD “One Day: One Passion” are now available free online:

John PiperIt’s such a blessing to the church that Desiring God can provide these videos free to the public! I’ve seen the first couple sermons from the original Passion DVDs and saw Piper preach live at Passion06 for the talk on suffering. I highly recommend these videos if you have not seen or heard the sermons before. Certainly, seeing Piper preach live is a spiritual feast — Pastor John is so biblical and passionate in his expositional preaching that many times I just want to shrink and hide myself from how he pierces the heart and mind through God’s Word!

Changed & Still Changing, part 2

This is the 2nd part of my CC’07 reflections.

Corporate WorshipPrayer
I’ll say little about this, except that it was for the most part, effective and not distracting. The lead worshipers humbly lead us into song, often with appropriate sharing in between songs. I did notice the number of “umms”, a sign that some prayers / sharings were not prepared beforehand, and thus lacked the proper flow and direction that would have more effectively communicated the point of the pre/post-song spiel. Theologically, I recall disagreeing quietly when it was said that we should not be caring about the quality of the music, for when one tells us not to care or notice such things — we naturally begin to do the very thing we’re told not to do. Meanwhile, we must also understand that God is creator, Lord and Savior, and he deserves nothing less than our most best, most creative worship. The “FOCUS” band did a really good job emphasizing that in song, but I did notice many unnecessary remarks that stopped the flow of worship in the middle of its tracks and directed the worshipers attention to what was going on on-stage.

Changed & Still Changing, part 1

Give You EverythingAfter Campus Challenge 2007, my head was in a whirlwind as I began to wonder, “what does this all mean?” In as much as it was related to my own ministry and calling, it had much more to do with how I would live the next 2.5 months before I leave for Louisville. Time is short, and I am counting down to my last days here in Toronto, Ontario, Canada for the next 3 years of my life. And in the midst of seeing my days numbered, I am scared at how much can change in such a short time and also disappointed at how much won’t change at the same time.

This probably doesn’t make any sense to you, as I’ve not said specifically why my mind is in a whirlwind — so let me just share with you some more concrete reflections.
