Grey Advertising doesn’t often find itself basking in praise. Particularly not for its creative work. But change has been on the agenda for 2008 and, just in the nick of time, they’ve unleashed an ad that has the industry taking notice.

There was confusion then celebration at the BBC tonight, when EastEnders, long considered to be a fictional TV soap, was, in fact, discovered to be a genuine East End community complete with actual real life people in real life situations!The proof came during today's Christmas episode, when a number of the cast were gathered together at Ian Beale's house for Christmas Dinner. As the throng...

The Taxosphere has a huge variety of writers, from folks who offer sound personal finance advice to those who focus on the theoretical aspects of taxes. But what the Taxosphere doesn’t have is a quick list of the best resource for learning more about taxes, and more about what bloggers have to say about taxes. [...]

In We Become What We Worship: A Biblical Theology of Idolatry (IVP Academic, 2008), author G.K. Beale teases out the implications of a truth he first discovered during an extensive study of the commissioning of the prophet Isaiah (Isaiah 6). Beale believes that one of the central aspects of Isaiah 6 is that “what you revere you resemble, either for ruin or [...]

... legends, from Olivier (1948), Redgrave (1958), Jacobi (1979) and Branagh (1996) to Simon Russell Beale's ironic great Dane in 2000 (and Garrick before all of those). Tennant's widely praised performance in Stratford had raised expectations that he would join the ranks of the greats, and he may still do so, but he will have to work hard to regain the lost ground in the remaining performances...

Here are a couple of interesting paragraphs from Greg Beale’s latest book, The Erosion of Inerrancy in Evangelicalism: Responding to New Challenges to Biblical Authority (Wheaton: Crossway, 2008). In fact, there is an increasingly popular attitude that the Chicago Statement and the term inerrancy carry significant “fundamentalist baggage,” with all the negative associations that go with [...]

I was going to write a summary of G.K. Beale's excellent lecture that argued for inerrancy based on the book of Revelation, but Jim Hamilton beat me to it. Here's a teaser: This year’s Crossway Lecture at ETS was presented by G. K. Beale . Beale argued that Inerrancy is not a scholastic theological deduction made by interpreters of the Bible, but rather that it is an exegetical observation...

I’ve blogged about G.K. Beale’s rare ability to completely miss the point and obscure people’s viewpoints before, and he seems like he is not letting up. His newest book is entitled The Erosion of Inerrancy in Evangelicalism: Responding to New Challenges to Biblical Authority and just might overtake Dave Hunt’s What Love is This? [...]

'...G. K. Beale attempts vigorously and even-handedly to examine the writings of one leading postmodernist, Peter Enns...' (from the blurb for Beale's new book) As a few people have noticed the labelling of Enns (it's not clear who is responsible for the blurb) as a 'leading postmodernist' is very bizarre. As NT Wrong put it, For those who don’t get the joke, Enns is very conservative himself...

A good reason to write a post like the previous is interestingly found in the claims on the back of a book noted by Nick Norelli recently, Beale's The Erosion of Inerrancy in Evangelicalism: Responding to New Challenges to Biblical Authority . What Beale actually claims remains to be seen when I purchase a copy, but the blurb reads: 'When postmodernism preys upon propositional truth, Christians—and...
