Midweek Meeting

Our midweek meeting on Wednesdays at 7:00 pm is held at the Bringe home. The current series is based on J. Gresham Machen’s book, The New Testament: An Introduction to Its Literature and History. This evening, we will read and discuss the chapter on the Gospel according to Matthew.

Blog Post

Baird, Hart, and the King of Kings
In this blog post, I review King of Kings: A Reformed Guide to Christian Government by James Baird. In it, I also interact with D.G. Hart’s review article concerning the book in Ordained Servant.

Save the Date – Fall Conference

You can save the date, September 25-26, for a conference that our church will host. The theme will be “Man, Woman, and Family.” It will begin Friday evening (probably 6:30 pm) and go through Saturday afternoon (probably 3:00 pm) and will include lunch on Saturday. The location will be at Liberty Church in O’Fallon, MO. Once we have it set up, early-bird registration will be $20 for those 15 and over, $5 for those 4-14, and free for children 3 and under. The speakers will be myself and two other OPC pastors, Brian De Jong (Grace OPC in Sheboygan, WI) and Mike Myers (Heritage OPC in Royston, GA). I hope to bring flyers with more information this Sunday.
