Listen to A29 Bootcamp Live

I've been listening to the A29 Bootcamp live while working this afternoon.  Right now they have a Q & A session going and one of the questions asked was "What does it mean that A29 is a reformed network?"  This led into a discussion of Calvinism where Driscoll pointed out that he's not a fan of the Five Points because they are "negative theology," or were written in response to Arminianism, which is "not a good way to do theology."  I dig that.  He also mentioned that many call Calvinism "God-centerd" theology, but that, in his view, it's not God-centered because it starts with our total depravity rather than the glory of God, e.g., it starts with Genesis 3 rather than Genesis 1.

"I'm not against the five points of Calvinism, but I'm not for them either." - Mark Driscoll

Increase Your Gospel Fluency

Do you know the Gospel? Could you articulate it? Can you address everyday issues with the Gospel?

If you know it and can articulate it, the next question is: Are you experiencing ongoing repentance and growing faith in the Gospel?

How can you increase your gospel fluency and live out the gospel on a daily basis? Answering this question is what Jeff Vanderstelt tackles in this article.
