At the Clarus panel discussion between Fred Zaspel and D.A. Carson,"Rest in the Gospel or Strive Unto Holiness," Carson said that when the council meets in May, they would be discussing the subject of effort in the Christian life. I am looking forward to all the discussions but especially the one of rest and effort in gospel living.
I started a small series on the subject to coincide with TGC council meetings."Effort? Yes, and No!" http://www.gospelgrace.net/2012/05/25/effort-yes-and-no-part-one/

Hope these videos are available soon! We pastors need a lot of guidance on these pressing issues. Hope you can accommodate a visit to Puerto Rico very soon. We need you down here to help pastors develop healthy gospel-centered vision for their churches!
