Donald Livingston and the Southern Intellectual Tradition
I owe a debt I cannot pay. One of the most intriguing and brilliant men I know is Donald Livingston. Don taught philosophy at Emory University, and is a world-class David Hume scholar. He is the founder of the Abbeville Institute, and is simply a wonderful man. For many years now, Don has explored, explicated, and communicated the strengths and weaknesses of the southern intellectual tradition. I have benefitted from his insights for a number of years. His excellent essay Don wrote for Modern Age, titled, "The Southern Tradition and Limited Government," is attached.

Tyndale House Videos on the Christian Faith
The Greens spent a wonderful sabbatical at Tyndale House in Cambridge, England (in spring of 2010). Tyndale House is a residential center for biblical studies, and has a world-class theological library. It is a great gift to the Christian church, and we are thankful for the opportunity to have studied there. Recently Tyndale House has produced some helpful videos on the resurrection, the nature of the crucifixion, the nature/authority of Scripture, and other items. The videos are helpfully collected here. Enjoy!
