Phil's Session Readings

At Session meeting last night, Phil handed out an essay by Covenant Seminary president, Bryan Chapell. He commends it as an excellent presentation in lay language of the New Perspectives on Paul that has gained a measure of influence in some PCA circles. You can access the essay at this site: Covenant Seminary.

Phil also passed out information about MNA: Mission to North America. This is the PCA's agency for planting and revitalizing churches. Take a look sometime at its website, which you can access on the righthand column of links labeled: Presbyterian Church in America. You will probably be noting greater effort in the coming year to inform the congregation of the ministries of the PCA.

He also passed out three brochures that were statements of The Council on Biblical Manhood & Womanhood about gender related issues, noting that he finds the statements of this council to be well-balanced. You can accessed their site at www.cbmw.org.

Finally, at each Session meeting we study a chapter of the Westminster Confession of Faith. The chapter this month was chapter 19: "Of the Law of God." To read that chapter, go to this PCA site: Confession of Faith.
