A friend of mine has a subscription, and has lent it to me. It is great! I am not sure he is going to get his CD's back, though....

Thanks for letting us know

It is good.

Well, I just subscribed. I couldn't resist.

The demo issue I got talked about eugenics and forced sterilization in the US in the 20's. I didn't even know that happened! And there are probably people alive today effected by it! Apparently the theory of evolution effected the US as it did Germany (though not to the same extreme) . . Interesting how eugenics still exists today, only in a different form. Then it was state-oriented, today it's consumer-oriented (as in, "let's abort this child because he will be born deformed," and similar sentiments).

Dunno if anyone's interested, but . . .

Ken Meyers was a guest at a church conference entitled "After Evangelism." The site has a free 38 min. download from the first lecture: link.

This isn't the Journal, of course, but it's good anyway.

I subscribe and have for years. It's very valuable. I recommend it.

I don't always agree with Ken's "take" on things (he sees "dualism" everywhere and doesn't always distinguish between Christian body/soul or two-kindgoms dualisms and neo-Platonic dualism. Lately he's been giving the Reformation a bit of hard time as a source of Modernism. I could not disagree more. There were early modern forces at work in the 16th century but they had more to do with the Renaissance than they did with the Reformation per se. Luther and Calvin were more medieval than they were Modern.

Still, the interviews are fascinating and the references to current lit outside my field(s) are worth the price of admission as they say.

I ordered 4 back issue volumes to listen to on our 12-14 hour drive to VA to visit my parents w/ my wife. I consider it a major treat. :bigsmile:

I haven't noticed what you've mentioned (concerning some of his takes on the Reformation and dualisms), but that's probably since I've only just subscribed (or I'm not yet keen to notice these things!).

Dr. Clark, have you found anything else as "neat" as this that you subscribe to? I love this stuff! (Well, "love" as in . . ya know, like a lot.)

The only other such things to which I listen are:

1) the white horse inn

2) Into the Word These are chapel messages from WSC featuring mostly WSC faculty and a few others. Rob Norris' recent (excellent!) Den Dulk lectures on the ministry are also available from the sem bookstore.

I'm sure there are other things. A couple of our alumni do a podcast called Ordinary Means. It's quite good.

A few of our students do a blog and podcast called Creed or Chaos. Good fellows.

That's all for now.
