Theological Journals

Table Talk (June 22): in “Do You Play with Fire,” Rev. Mathis offers an interesting exercise from Prof. DeYoung at Calvin. Prof. DeYoung encouraged students to keep a log of instances where anger occurred in the students. A review of the logs indicated that the majority of instances were pettinesses and irrelevancies. An interesting and revelatory exercise. Standard Bearer (May 15, 2022): in “The Prophet Habukkuk and His Message,” Rev. Ron Hanko brings the exposition of Habukkuk to a close. A lovely pastoral piece of work, free of wonkdom. Bibliotheca Sacra (Jan-Mar 2021): in “`Not Abandoned to Sheol:’ The Psalms and Hope for the Righteous after Death,” Dr. Kyle Dunham will argue that, in fact, there is an OT doctrine of life after death in bliss after going down to Sheol.

Global Anglican (Spring 2022), in “Beyond Male and Female? How Redemption’s Relationship to Creation Shapes Sexual Ethics,” Sam Ashton continues to disarm DeFranzia attempt to take Mt. 19.12 as a text for expanding beyond the binary roles of sexuality. Only in a theological journal. Reformed Presbyterian Theological Journal (1837): the Editor exquisitely describes the “mens rea” of the Christian mind—the habit and cultivation of the mind. No anti-intellectualism here.
