Gas Up: August 21

The price of gas stayed exactly the same here this week. It’s still $1.399 per litre. And still I have no photo.

Dorothy is paying the same this week as last, too, although her price rose temporarily during the week.

What’s your gas price report?

In Kansas, threegirldad tells us he’s paying:

$3.45, which means it’s down 12 cents since last Friday.

Recommended for Listening VII

Here are a few mp3 sermons and lectures that I’ve listened to recently and recommend to you.

1. This years’s reFocus Canada:

Previously, I recommended the audio of the first session by Bruce Ware. Since then I’ve had time to listen to his second talk, Universal Authority: The Authority of the Creator, and I recommend it as well. As a bonus, there’s a handy set of notes for this session.

D. A. Carson spoke on The Authority of Scripture. I’m vouching for it, too. Here are the notes.

2. Three sermons by Phil Johnson on Ephesian 2:1-10, my favorite passage in the Bible:

• The Bad News of the Gospel
• The Good News of the Gospel, #1
• The Good News of the Gospel, #2

3. D. A. Carson in Singapore at St. John’s-St. Margaret’s Church on Postmodernism and Its Impact on Christianity:

• Download Can the Truth Be Nailed?
• Download Can the Truth Be Nailed Question & Answer
