Romans Bible Study
Michael Kruger introduced a video Bible study series on his blog:

[T]his Fall we began a new study of Romans here at the RTS Charlotte campus. It is a Wednesday morning Bible study for women in the Charlotte community.  …

[W]e are filming each installment of the series and posted the videos online, along with the handouts.

I thought I’d already linked to these, but I can’t find anything. Perhaps I tweeted a link but never got around to actually linking here on the blog. I’ve watched the first seven videos and highly recommend them. I wish all women’s Bible studies were like this: rigorous, but also easy to understand. There will be a total of eleven videos posted this fall and eleven more this coming spring.

Here’s the link to the series. The upcoming videos will be added as they are posted. 

Theology on the Go
Robert Brady of Place for Truth introduces a new podcast:

[Each Theology on the Go program] is a brief conversation - one guest, one topic. Its tagline is, “A brief conversation about an eternal truth.” It’s the perfect length for a short commute, or a break in the day.

Each episode features a  pastor or theologian discussing a theological subject with Jonathan Master. Here’s the iTunes link.

5 Minutes in Church History
Hosted by Dr. Stephen Nichols, this a weekly podcast gives us a “glimpse of how the eternal, unchangeable God has worked in the church over prior generations, and how this can encourage us today. This is our story—our family history.”

 I’ve linked to individual episodes of this podcast previously, but here’s the link to them all. And don’t miss the story of Wibrandis Rosenblatt, the Bride of the Reformation, who was married to four different Reformers.

Heidelberg Catechism

Question 62. But why can’t our good works be our righteousness before God, or at least part of it? 

Answer: Because the righteousness which can stand before God’s judgment must be absolutely perfect, (a)  In this life, even our best works are imperfect and defiled with sin. (b)

Sunday's Hymn: O for a Thousand Tongues to Sing

O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of his grace.

My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad,
The honors of thy Name.

Jesus, the Name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears,
‘Tis life, and health, and peace.

He breaks the power of reigning sin,
He sets the pris’ner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean,
His blood availed for me.

He speaks and, listening to his voice,
New life the dead receive;
The mournful, broken hearts rejoice;
The humble poor believe.

Hear him, ye deaf; his praise, ye dumb,
Your loosened tongues employ;
Ye blind, behold your Savior come;
And leap, ye lame, for joy.

—Charles Wesley
