Reformed Preaching and Worship in An Electronic Age
Here are some lectures, by Dr. T. David Gordon, on Reformed Worship in an electronic age. I remember that Dr. Pipa recommended an unpublished article by Dr. Gordon on the subject of Reformed Worship during our Reformed Worship course at GPTS. This is something that needs to be considered carefully, especially by church planters.
Greg Reynolds also has some interesting thoughts on the dynamics of the work of the church in a media age. You can listen to his lectures here .
Christ the Center interviewed Dr. Reynolds on preaching in an electronic age. You can listen to that interview here .
Along the same lines, here is the lecture that Dr. Reynolds gave at the 2007 GPTS Spring Theology Conference. The title of the talk was “Print and Pixels: How They Mediate Our Worldview.”
I just graduated from Grove City where Dr. Gordon teaches. I took him for one worldview class last yet, and I had friends who had him for “Media Ecology.” He has thought a lot about how electronic media affects us. Everyone would benefit from reflecting on his thoughts for a little while.
Just want to reiterate Tim’s words here. “T. David” as his students call him, is a superb teacher who knows how to provoke further thought. Thank you for posting these; I did not know they existed.
I’m very interested in exploring this topic on future episodes of Christ the Center. I think having T. David Gordon and Greg Reynolds interacting with each other would be very interesting.
I haven’t heard the episode with Reynolds but having them together would be interesting. They may well know each other.
Dr. Gordon was known for being one of the best lecturers at Grove City, and he’s a talkative guy all around. He’s is also one of the most thoughtful (in the contemplative sense) men I’ve ever known. An interview with him would be excellent.
I listened to Dr. Gordon’s lectures over the weekend. They are fantastic.
