In His sweet providence, God has granted us the opportunity to study under some godly men at two evangelical institutions (Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary) who have taught us a great deal from the Lord’s word. Everything that we have gained under this guidance is by His grace and mercy (“What do you have that you did not receive?” [1Cor 4:7]). What we have learned is not ours to keep, but given to share with others. We hope that at least some of these things will aid in your study of Scripture and further point you to the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.
