Theology That Bites Back
This category contains the resources that I have found useful in my personal and professional life. Admittedly, it is an eclectic list. It contains everything from quotes and books that I like to podcasts, videos, and slideshows.
Nancy and I are currently living with my father, Jim Wilson, who is 92-years-old. After many years of fruitful ministry — teaching, writing, and evangelism — a number of years ago my father asked me what I thought he should do with the rest of his time. Without hesitating, I said, “Write your autobiography.” I …
Not to take anything away from the previous announcement of a new book, here is another one, uniquely delivered. If you follow this link, you will get more of the details, but all the salient facts are here. The Ashtown Burials were designed as a four-book series. But a series of unfortunate events, mostly having …
Well, sort of a commentary. The subtitle for this book is descriptive enough: “Sermon Notes on the Book of Romans.” A few years ago, I preached a series of 65 sermons through this magisterial book, and some time after that I put them all together in a big file and went through it all with …

We live in demented times, and proofs of this assertion can be found by pointing in pretty much any and every direction. One of those proofs is the fact that I am able to select as my book of the month a book written by an open homosexual, and with the topic of the book …
This installment on chapter 5 of Beyond Authority and Submission will be quite brief. It should be sufficient to point out that not only is Rachel Miller not laying any groundwork that will help establish her thesis, but she has gone above and beyond the call of duty, and has been kind enough to blow …
My installment on Rachel Miller’s next chapter will be brief. What I want to do is explain how the structure of her thesis is hopeless, and this should only take a few minutes. In the next chapter, ...
