Thanks for the post. I greatly admire each of these men.
were they infected with something?...the plastic background is distracting
Quarantined for the Gospel
The DG Video Team shot this conversation on the fly one night in a small circa 1980 seminary classroom at Trinity. We stopped by home depot looking for a cheap lightweight background that we could hang from the drop down ceiling. Painters plastic it was.

Perhaps someone close enough to these gentlemen can suggest a panel discussion that gives an exploded view of the last part specifically. Many of us who were ambushed by Keller in May of 2006 at Resurgence are still trying to reconcile the missional and practical ecclesiological implications of gospel-centeredness like Keller and the Glory-centeredness of Piper. This has created dichotomous discussions regarding rhetorical priorities that pit the subject of the gospel against the subject of glory of God. The difficulty comes in that the accompanying errors which Piper and Keller confessed they are prone to don't tell us how to go past this. In the same way that Edwards contrasted common and true virtue, is there a difference between common glory and true glory? Can God’s glory really be known apart from the gospel? Does the fact that God glories even in my futility apart from him escape the scope of the gospel? All this, much less how to begin to address (as Carson came oh-so-close to) how to preach the gospel twice a week to a backslidden high schooler.
(sorry for the previous deleted post, the comment had an annoying number of typos)
Love facebook.
Hate videos on facebook. I need to be able to see/hear these videos on my iPod.
Justin: tell them it would be helpful.
I cannot find these videos on Youtube which I like so that I can post on my blog directly.
Do you know if they will be posted on Youtube at all ?
