Congratulations to Sacred Journey regular Daniel Kirk, who will be Biblical Seminary’s new professor of New Testament. Biblical is located in Hatboro, right up the road from us, so I’m sure we’ll soon be having some theological roundtables together (i.e., tipping some lagers at Union Jacks).

He urges us to turn back a page in our Bibles to contemplate the implications of God’s sovereignty in Romans 8. [...]

No, that’s not a new micro-brewery beer.
