April 24, 2012The Gospel Alphabet: W is for Worship
March 11, 2012A | B | C | D | E | F | G | H | I | J | K | L | M | N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V In his book, Grounded in the Gospel: Building Believers the Old-Fashioned Way, J.I. Packer has a chapter entitled “The Gospel as of First Importance.” In that chapter, Packer discusses the pastoral and formational applications of the Gospel. Many are familiar with the quote from Tim Keller that “the Gospel is not the ABC’s of [...]
God & Sinner Reconcile | Stephen Miller
January 16, 2012I have never considered myself an expert on all things musical. I mention what I believe to be good music because of what it does for my soul. With the recovery of the gospel in all its beauty, this movement of God needs gifted men and women to lead us in singing the gospel. Again [...]
Wrong Worship
September 19, 2011All Our Sin for Your Grace
August 15, 2011Yesterday, I had an opportunity to preach at Grace Gathered from Luke 7:36-50. I wanted to show how the grace of God builds a genuinely loving community of forgiven sinners. Luke’s account of Jesus’ interaction with the “woman of the city” is a truly remarkable testimony of sheer grace. This morning, I listened to the [...]

The Gospel Song
August 24, 2010One of our favorite family worship songs is “The Gospel Song.” I believe it was the first song my 2 year-old son memorized and sang word-for-word. Tonight was a special treat, thanks to Bob Kauflin who made us aware of an animation that had just come out. Check it out. The guy who made that [...]
Tom Nettles on Experiential Theology
July 5, 2010Joe Thorn has started an excellent new series on pastor-theologians, and this week, he has interviewed Dr. Tom Nettles. The journey Joe describes in his love of God and truth is one that I can imagine many have traveled down, and to see him doing a series on combining head, heart, and hands is going [...]
Prone to Wander, Lord I Feel It
September 14, 2009O to grace how great a debtor Daily I’m constrained to be! Let Thy goodness, like a fetter, Bind my wandering heart to Thee. Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, Prone to leave the God I love; Here’s my heart, O take and seal it, Seal it for Thy courts above. These words were [...]
Thoughts on Gospel-Centered Worship
September 10, 2009Let me begin by saying I am not a “worship leader” in that I do not lead in singing, and the limits of my musical talent is that of beating a drum. Nevertheless, I want to talk about worship, in particular how the gospel informs and shapes not only the song but also the structure [...]
The Jesus Storybook Bible
September 8, 2009Yesterday was an especially exciting day for the Brister family. No, we didn’t do anything out of the ordinary for Labor Day. What happened was we finished the Jesus Storybook Bible for the first time. God has used this little resourced by Sally Lloyd-Jones to turn our times of family worship as the most exciting [...]
The Church has been under-fathered and over-mothered.
September 2, 2009Matt Redman has some good words about romantic language in worship songs.
