the following list is designed to help those who are trying to enter into a splinter cell of presbyterians, are preparing to attend gordon-conwell theological seminary or have friends who are planning to name their first child 'piper,' engage in meaningful conversation.

i would like to dedicate this list to dr. david wells, who always warned us that the worst response to truth is to laugh at it.
