Since the
Carson and Piper interview I'm still in a reading sort of frame of mind. Thanks to this
tip by Dave Bish - I found a list of available articles by Don Carson on the "
Gospel Coalition" website. His books are all favourites of mine and are on my shelves, but I've always been frustrated by how to follow and get hold of the articles that these men write without subscribing to every expensive journal around! This one prayer has been answered - here's the links to PDF files. My printer is going to be busy! I was particularly struck by something Piper said in the interview about;
"When you go to school, don't choose classes. Choose teachers. Find the teachers who do it and model it best and take as many classes as you can. It doesn't matter what they teach. I would say that about college and I would say that about seminary. Don't take classes. Take teachers. Ask around - find out who is the thinker and modeller".Don Carson has been one such man that I've tried to learn as much as I can from (since my university days!). John Piper of course would be another, as well as Ern Baxter, Terry Virgo, Rob Rufus and I could name many more!
