And out of nowhere as I was looking for resources on the net on how to speak to Jehovah Witnesses, (I just found out a couple that befriended me in my neighborhood is JW) I ran into this YouTube video by a John Piper....

His sharing is sharp, penetrating, full of power and light....

And then I found this one on "How does Christ live in me?" Gal. 2:20

This is healthy teaching. (I hope the rest of his ministry is similar.....)

Is John Piper calvinist? I was told he is.

Yep, don't know how rabid a Calvinist he is. The first book I read after leaving the LC and attending a community Church was Desiring God by John Piper. Made the writing of LSM and RK look sophomoric.

I find E. P. Sanders does that in leaps and bounds.

Me too - lead wonderfully to that book trying to figure out if there was life after TLR, and at a very low point (which is usually where He gets through)!

Kevin Thompson is a good teacher of scripture. His YouTube channel is called beyondthefundamentals. I highly recommend.
