Jesus is the promised Son of David whose throne will endure forever. Let us worship and serve him.

Addressing the myth that 'Reformed Christians don't evangelize,' Rev. Parnell acknowledges the kernel of truth (other traditions are often more zealous) but answers from Romans 10 and Matthew 28 that God ordains means as well as ends, and points to Calvin's robust missionary theology and the Puritan mission movement. He then distributes and walks through several gospel tracts: Kyle Borg's circular creation-to-new-creation diagram, an Evangelism Explosion booklet (two diagnostic questions), Jonathan Haney's business-card conversation starters (Love, Hope, Truth), and text tracts 'What Is the Gospel?' and 'Who Is Jesus?' He also provides a list of twenty key evangelism verses. The class discusses how each tract serves as a conversation starter, how to enter at different points depending on the hearer, and how metaphors of shame, love, and hope connect with different cultures.

God's covenant is a bond of love that will never fail.

SRPC enjoys a meditation on a psalm, to be sung all month as our Psalm of the Month. A ministry of the Stillwater Reformed Presbyterian Church of Stillwater, Oklahoma, glorifying Jesus Christ through biblical worship.

God's covenant is a bond of love that will never fail.

By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. (1 John 3:16)

Another brief study on evangelism, a crucial part of our role in Christ's kingdom.

"By this we know love, because He laid down His life for us. And we also ought to lay down our lives for the brethren." (1 John 3:16)

Dispelling the myth that 'there's only one right way to evangelize,' Rev. Parnell surveys various gospel tools (Evangelism Explosion, Roman Road, Bridge Illustration, Four Spiritual Laws) before turning to the challenge of postmodernism. Following Sam Chan, he contrasts modernism (truth→beliefs→praxis) with postmodernism (praxis→beliefs→truth) and identifies key postmodern values: tolerance as highest good, relativism, suspicion of power, diversity without absolutes, and ethics as a barrier to belief. He affirms that Christians are neither strictly modern nor postmodern but hold to revealed objective truth—and should not 'throw away the gun' when someone denies the Bible. Practical strategies include authenticity and storytelling, hospitality (Rosario Butterfield), personal testimony, wisdom as an entry point, and creative arts (C. S. Lewis), while still pressing propositional gospel truth.

Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
