1. Here is a great new blog a found: Think Theologically
It is by Nathaniel Claiborne. Although he is a Florida guy (probably rooting for Florida State this weekend), this balances out since he is a DTS student!
2. Albert Mohler canceled his radio program. . . and the world’s continence grew dim (well some of them). But then he started a new Podcast and people said “one more round.”
3. If you have never checked out Apologetics315, it is a great site.
Don’t miss their “Ultimate MP3 Page.” Amazing. Why would you need to go anywhere else? Well, I did not see any of my stuff on there, but it is not technically “apologetics.” But what about Rob Bowman’s stuff. Ok, you will need to go other places, but not many.
4. Ten Reasons to Burn the Koran
Please don’t follow these guys. Don’t burn a Koran or any other book—ever! I am sure their hearts are in the right place, but this kind of stuff makes Christianity look bad and insecure.
*UPDATE: They called it off.
5. For my charismatic friends, what do you think of Lady Delia Knox’s healing? Legit?
6. Interesting history of the ID movement
I have always liked the ID approach simply because they can take turns that philosophical naturalism cannot take. BTW: I have recently left the philosophical naturalistic method, even though I believe it is a good starting point. The turns you are forced to take when God can’t be present are too hard and create such odd presuppositions.
7. Here is an example of not putting your emphasis in the right place.
Watch out. How much you put in italics will either kill your testimony (like this guy) or tactfully give it the emphasis it needs.
8. Go Trump!
Should they put up a gay porn shop and a pig slaughter factory next to the mosque in NY? Its not about freedom, its about tact, thoughtfulness and wisdom.
9. Its about time: www.theocartoons.com
Theo, the animated theologian. Theology for kids. Love it! Looks very promising.
10. You do know I have a twitter account? http://twitter.com/cmichaelpatton?
Also search for @theotweeter.

The cartoon website looks cool, and I watched the video, “Good News”
It had me until a few points that was not fully theologically correct.
At the end the Professor says, (Not exact words) “Having Jesus you will have fullness of joy here on earth.”
I have not read in the bible where having Christ means having fullness of joy on this earth. Lets see our joy is in the hope of the here after, but our pain is in this race on the now.
Before that it talks about all you have to do is accept Christ and you can be save. Yes and no.
Unless a reformed parent goes into this with their child that child could be living a false conversation with out understanding grace.
Other than that, good site on the right target but missed the target.
Apologetics315 has some of your stuff. I found Your’s & Rhome’s series on Innerrancy of scripture. I listened to it about 6 months ago. Good stuff.

“probably rooting for Florida State this weekend”
FSU over OU? Maybe, just maybe. If so, the ‘Noles will take some sod from the field.
Just to clarify, I’ll take the title “Florida guy” but I’m no ‘Noles fan (can’t say I’m a Sooner fan either though). If anything, I side with the Gators, but only when they are not playing Tennessee (and I can only do that now because Steve Spurrier has relocated). My two denominations are Baptist, and Southeastern Conference.
I grew in Knoxville, so I bleed orange and white, which creates tensions with my Gator fan wife (who probably loves football more than I do!), but we’re working through that.
Thanks for the link though, much appreciated!

Re 4. I m sure that their hearts are not in the right place … little love for the enemy/other there. If Christians wont call other Christians out, we cant complain when non-Christians do it.
