Book Review and Giveaway: CSB He Reads Truth Bible

June 17, 2019 by Kofi Adu-Boahen

The CSB has fast become one of my favourite translations of the Scriptures. Combining accuracy to the original languages of the Scriptures with clear readability, it’s become my go-to for reading, study and public ministry of the Word. The CSB He Reads Truth Bible, the latest offering from Holman Publishers, is designed with one goal […]

Discipleship is Not a Luxury – It’s a Necessity

February 15, 2019 by Kofi Adu-Boahen

If you could cut me and examine my blood, I imagine aside from the physical components, you would find four elements in there. You’d find love for Christ, love for my wife, love for my football team (or soccer for my American friends), and a love for making disciples. Disciple-making is something near and dear […]

Book Review: Agonizing for the Faith by Thomas Coutouzis

October 9, 2018 by Kofi Adu-Boahen

As I write, I am sitting at my desk in my study with a dozen commentaries lined up in front of me. On the two shelves behind me, I have at least one commentary on every book of the Bible. I don’t begin with that to ‘collect’ props for how many commentaries I own – […]

Watch Your Mouth! James’ Counsel to the Verbally Challenged – Part 2

May 18, 2018 by Kofi Adu-Boahen

The Command With the context built up in our previous post, let’s look at our theme verse once again. Know Your Weakness I bristle at the line of reasoning that says, “We’re all sinners…” and goes on to justify sin. I do so because it is an excuse, not a reason. It’s not too dissimilar […]

Watch Your Mouth! James’ Counsel for the Verbally Challenged – Part 1

May 11, 2018 by Kofi Adu-Boahen

I consider looseness with words no less of a defect than looseness of the bowels – John Calvin If there is one problem I have with modern Christians, it’s how we use language. I am not much for conversation – by nature, I have a knack for offending people and that penchant for offence usually […]

Miles Wide and Inches Deep? How Discipleship Failure is Ruining Us – Part 1

March 20, 2018 by Kofi Adu-Boahen

One of the great passions of my life is discipleship – “teaching [believers] to observe all that [Christ] has commanded [us]”. There is something powerful about the truth taking ground in the heart of another believer who then takes that truth and passes it on to another believer who passes it on, and so the […]

Ep. 007 | Matthew 13 Parables — TAU Roundtable

Things Above Us?

Colossians 3:1-2 is, in essence, the theme of this blog. So how can a group of guys get together, entitle a blog “Things Above Us” in clear reference to scripture, then proceed to make sports one of the four pillars of categories alongside such heavenly minded topics as theology, evangelism and missions? Let’s briefly (for […]

Penal Substitutionary Atonement: The Very Thing We Need to Overcome Racial and Socialist Agendas

All sound theology flows from a proper and biblical understanding of the atonement of Christ. Juxtaposed to this, every heresy or agenda in some way will distort or redefine the cross. Knowing the biblical reason(s) for why Christ died is critical, essential, and foundational to immunizing ourselves from the heretical diseases that seem to abound […]
