A note from Keith:

The next round of TSG starts on October 17, from 7pm to 9pm at the Christian Centre.
We plan to revert to moving through Grudem as a ‘conversation partner.’ I hope you can join us again.  

Someone recently pointed me in the direction of www.archive.org It’s an enormous resource of scanned out of copyright books and audio files on almost any subject.  The need today isn’t for more information, but for the knowledge, nay wisdom, to sort out what is good.  At the TSG we try to recommend the good and stimulating stuff.

At the moment I’ve been reading Tim Keller’s superb The Reason for God.  I hope to wade through Dawkins’ The Greatest Show on Earth (note the obvious omissions of cosmology, origin of the universe and consciousness).  On this line of things I hope to look at (as opposed to read!) Stephen Meyer’s Signature in the cell.  The most interesting forthcoming book in this series is Norman Nevin’s (forward by Wayne Grudem) book Should Christians Embrace Evolution.  Crucially the book contains theological reflections, so often missing from the Christian side.

Don’t forget Themelios is available free of charge from the Gospel Coalition web site, latest edition is July.

I think that’s enough for now, but don’t forget about the next TSG (21 Nov) which will be led by Ken Totton and covers a vital topic – see list above.  Other excellent speakers will include Dr Peter Williams, warden of Tyndale House, and Dr Peter Mead.

Yours in Christ,
