Why Is The Gospel Coalition Complementarian?

Don__CarsonA good discussion about an important issue within the church today. Don Carson, Tim Keller, and John Piper discuss how our age demands that we model the biblical case for Christ-like headship.

Divisions in the Church, Poor Leadership [1 Corinthians 4] (Pt. 2 of 2) - Joe Gordon

barren1Are you a small group leader? A parent? A deacon? An elder? A pastor? Then this sermon is for you. Joe Gordon, pastor of Young Adults at Scottdale Bible Church, subbed for Dr. Wayne Grudem (Mr. Systematic Theology) this summer. He gives a thoughtful, wonderfully developed sermon on what leadership looks like--in the home, in the church, in the mission field.
