Aron Osborne - Making Room for the Holy Spirit


I really appreciated this humble, personal exploration of gifts by Aron Osborne. I had never heard him before, but got his download from the Sovereign Grace store. He gave this talk at a SG conference in 2005. He serves as the Senior Pastor of Grace Community Church in Souderton, PA. Whatever your belief of the gifts on what is spiritual or not or whether they are for this day and age or not, I think you will find he presents his arugment in a fair, humble, engaging way.

Mark Driscoll - Spiritual Gifts


Mark Driscoll spent six weeks covering spiritual gifts during his 1st Corinthians series.

If you are interested in any of these, here is the link!
Go to this link and sermons/books of the bible/1st Corinthians

Enjoy!

Spiritual Gifts - C.J. Mahaney


I thought it would be interesting a spend a week looking at spiritual gifts. And who better to kick off a week than C.J. who has been one of the key leaders in joining a reformed doctrine with a charismatic bent. It is a great overview of 1st Corinithians and weaves together many essential doctrines and understandings... Just to hear the pastor introduce CJ at the beginning is worth the listen. And I think CJ is probably my favorite pastor to listen to pray.

Mark Driscoll - Dating


As a former youth pastor and a father of three daughters (maybe four?), I am always up for another talk on dating. I wasn't really prepared for such a great talk on dating. Personal, thorough, insightful and funny, man, he really has a gift for taking a huge (and not really biblical) idea of dating and make it practical for so many. A good listen.

Mark Driscoll - Grace


You really need to listen to this sermon on grace. That is it. Brilliant, engaging, scholarly, funny, insightful, meaningful. A great overview as only Mark can pull off! I think this is the one to listen of all this series...

Mark Driscoll - Religion Saves and nine misconceptions.


Mark Driscoll is in the news a lot lately, and I am not one that normally likes to ride a wave, but I couldn't help take a week and spotlight his sermons that he did titled, "Religion saves and other misconceptions!" He basically took a poll and these were the top nine asked questions. Everything from sex to predestination, Mark is a master at taking a huge topic, boiling it down to both challenge believers and lead unbelievers to Christ. He also did a question/answer segment at the end of the last sermon that is amazing. God has gifted Mark with an almost photographic memory and a insane ability to read and discern and teach for us. So, we might as well take advantage of it. Despite what puts some off, he may well be looked back in years to come as a Spurgeon of our age... He has been blessed to be a blessing... So listen in and be blessed! The first one for this week is the regulative principle. This was suprisingly the #1 asked question. Mark does a great job talking through the whole topic!
