A good friend of mine, Dr. Fred Zaspel, will be at DSC Sunday, June 27th. In addition to preaching in both of our morning services, Fred will give a special talk at 6:00 PM that evening — “Romans 9: Hard to Understand or Hard to Believe?” This will be followed by an open Q&A on the passage and its teaching. I’ve heard Fred preach this passage and answer questions on related doctrines, and I can tell you that you won’t be disappointed.<\/p>\n
Childcare is available for five-years-olds and younger. Just email<\/a> Terry Ash if you plan on taking advantage of that.<\/p>\n Let me say a little more about Fred and how I know him. He has invested hours in me personally over the last dozen years. He has sent me a lot of books, articles, pep-talk emails, and spent probably hundreds of hours on the phone helping me with this or that pastoral dilemma. For all practical purposes, he’s really been a long-distance Paul to this Timothy. In addition to his pastoral and writing ministries, Fred directs the theology and biblical studies curriculum for To Every Tribe<\/a> missions. He recently completed his PhD dissertation on B.B. Warfield<\/a>, which is to be published<\/a> by Crossway later this year. It will certainly be the most thorough and authoritative work on one of the most important American theologians. On a slightly lower shelf of reading, he also co-authored (with Tom Wells) New Covenant Theology<\/a><\/em>. Even more accessible, dozens, or even hundreds, of Fred’s sermons and articles are online at biblicalstudies.com<\/a>. And, Lord willing, we’ll be posting some of those articles over the next couple weeks.<\/p>\n So, all that to say, we hope you’ll be looking forward to June 27th, and planning on coming that Sunday PM to soak in Romans 9. Maybe even invite a friend from another church to come with you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
