The full gestation of our thoughts….

by Rhett Smith on April 29, 2006

What would this thought mean for our blogging? Blogging often seems like writing that has not fully gestated, but is rather thoughts and writing that is often hurried and in progress. Something for me to ponder. Leave to your opinions their own quiet undisturbed development, which, like all progress, must come from deep within and [...]

Mike Devries made a very good comment on my last blog posting and reminded me of something very important. He said, (speaking of these men who just recently signed this Confession and Articles at the Together for the Gospel Conference: J. Ligon Duncan III, Mark E. Dever, C.J. Mahaney, R. Albert Mohler, Jr., John MacArthur, [...]

a few more thoughts on feminization….

by Rhett Smith on April 25, 2006

feminization of the church? hmmmmmm…..

by Rhett Smith on April 23, 2006

To be completely honest again. There are some things that I think are worth note, worth a comment, but not worth me spending a lot of time in debate over. One, it might be because I just don’t have enough knowledge in an area, and though I think the topic is interesting, I probably don’t [...]
