Reformed Churchmen

We are Confessional Calvinists and a Prayer Book Church-people. In 2012, we remembered the 350th anniversary of the 1662 Book of Common Prayer; also, we remembered the 450th anniversary of John Jewel's sober, scholarly, and Reformed "An Apology of the Church of England." In 2013, we remembered the publication of the "Heidelberg Catechism" and the influence of Reformed theologians in England, including Heinrich Bullinger's Decades. For 2014: Tyndale's NT translation. For 2015, John Roger, Rowland Taylor and Bishop John Hooper's martyrdom, burned at the stakes. Books of the month.

MacArthur's "Shepherds' Conference" of 2011

http://www.shepherdsconference.org/

We are reviewing--widely--various American ana-Baptists in their diversity from Mahaney, Sovereign Grace Ministries, Driscoll, Mars Hill, 29Acts, Gospel Coalition, MacArthur, Piper, Chander, Warren and others.  As Confessional Anglicans, if anything, we are pressed toward an higher view of the Bible, our Reformed Articles, and our Reformed Prayer Book.  Nevertheless, we survey these for purposes of understanding them.

The above URL is from MacArthur's "Shepherds' Conference."  Commendably, this ministry puts them online rather than "selling them."  We understand that John Piper does the same. At this point, we are not sure that Ligonier Ministries does that. 

One subset of our concerns is the "Celebrity Culture" and fiscal concerns.  It's a fact some men have become wealthy preaching the Bible. That raises other questions.
