Music Monday: A Video Featuring Red and a 90's Christian Rock Quiz

On June 6, 2006, a rock album was released by a new band called Red. I have to admit when I first heard them, I was not sure what to expect. After hearing it for the first time, I thought this band will go very far in the music industry. Thankfully, I was right. Red has been one of my favorite bands. There music is awesome and want to cause you to start a mosh pit. This video is the first music video featuring Red called "Breathe Into Me" from the album End of Silence.



Okay, now that you have had a little rock music, lets see how well you know Christian Rock music from the 1990's. Over at the Reformed Pub they have a quiz for you to take. I got 8 out of 10 which means I know my rock Christian Rock and I will good when I die with a WWJD bracelet on (not sure how I feel about that). So take the quiz and share how many you got right.

How many of you have seen the "Thug Life" videos? Have you seen the ones put together by Baptist Humor? I would like to share a couple of my favorites featuring Voddie Baucham, Steven Lawson, and John MacArthur.

Talking About TULIP

The guys over at The Reformed Pubcast talked about the five pillars of Calvinism which is Total Depravity, Unconditional Election, Limited Atonement, Irresistible Grace, and Perseverance of the Saints also known as TULIP. They brought in special guests to talk about each pillar so that their listeners will know what each pillar means theologically. Those guests are Jeff Durbin, Doug Wilson, TurretinFan (I am still trying to figure this guy out), R.C. Sproul Jr., and James White.

Each segment is on audio and I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Favorite Blogs, Podcasts, and Websites - Part 1

If you are a frequent visitor to Keeping The Main Thing, you know from time to time, I post articles or link from other websites. In fact on the right side on the site, you will see links that I recommend. Granted some of them have become out of date due to varying circumstances. So I decided to write about a few of my favorite websites/blogs that I recommend for everyone to go to every once in while.

Now I am not planning to write about every website in this one post. I do plan from write about these websites periodically. This is not a top 15 websites list but a list of sites that I encourage Christians to go to. I am not in competition with these sites, but view these sites are great tools that the Lord has given to the church.

So, here we go. Let me begin with two podcasts on the Internet that I go to.

The Gospel Friends. It is a few minister serving a church talking about topics that affect Christians as well as funny stuff. Their name is a spin-off from "The Super Friends," which is a TV show I grew up watching. Every episode starts off with an introduction like it is a trailer from a movie:

In a world where heresy blankets the airwaves, religious stuffed-shirts suck the life out of Sunday morning, and prosperity teacher rob grandmothers of their pensions, three unassuming ministers endeavor to shine the light of Biblical theology and put the fun back in fundamentalism.

Next we got The Reformed Pubcast. If you are a lover of beer and theology, this is the podcast for you. I will confess I am not a big beer drinker and it is not because I have been part of Southern Baptist churches for most of my life. I do enjoy listening to this because they discuss tough theological topics with Biblical conviction while discussing what they are currently drinking. From time to time, they will have a special guest on the show such as Tullian Tchividjian, James White, and R.C.Sproul, Jr.

Now you maybe thinking that I don't listen to sermons online. Nothing could be further from the truth. I do listen to them I just don't count them as podcast. Yes, I know that I weird.

Hope you enjoy these podcasts as much as I do. For more podcasts you can check out Aaron Armstrong's recent post on his five favorite podcasts.
