Bible Studies, Seminary Papers, etc.
Last Updated 8/01/2005


The outlines, sermons and papers you will find on this page are quite diverse. Not in their source as they are all my own original work. However, they span a wide range of time and levels. Some of the papers date back to my first semester in seminary others are sermons I preached recently. Some are MDiv worksheet type papers, others are lengthy ThM papers. I am placing them here as a sort of repository and because someone somewhere may find one of them helpful.

However, I do this with a small amount of fear and trepidation. I am fairly confident that you will not find any heretical views supported in any of these works. However I am sure each of them could use a good amount of proofreading and editing. Things could be clarified and restated. I could wait to post anything until I have had the time to edit it, but that is unlikely to happen anytime soon. So I am posting them here in their original form trusting that no one will make final judgments on my theological understanding, writing ability or personal convictions based solely on the content and quality of these papers.

Enjoy. Please do not email me trying to start lengthy discussions on theological issues related to anything here, or with grammatical/typographical corrections. However, if you have a suggestion of additional sources for a particular subject that you believe would be helpful for me to consult when/if I get around to updating one of the documents, I would love to have that information.

More than anything, I pray that God may be please to use my feeble work to help someone else in someway.

God Bless,
