Halfway down the bookrack on the right side here, please note the release of Omnibus I from Veritas Press. We learned a lot in the production of this great textbook for 7th graders, and Lord willing, and the creeks don’t rise, Omnibus II will be ready for 8th graders by this coming fall.
Unasked For Provision
I finished my master’s work at the UI in 1979, and so Nancy and I decided to spend the summer in Vancouver, B.C. where I took a few classes at Regent College. John Stott was teaching through the book of Acts, and I decided to take three other classes as well. Leon Morris taught a …
