God & Whiskey Episode 33: Tim Keller, Pinhook, Port Charlotte, & Jura
At long last, the band is back together!
Drew, Will, and Evan are together for the first time in over a year. The topic is the life and witness of Tim Keller, a high-profile Presbyterian pastor who died recently after a fight with cancer. He was a rare combination of intellectual, church planter, and cultural commentator whose work left a mark on the lives of these three (very Methodist/Arminian) pastors.
They also review three different whiskies: one Kentucky bourbon and two from that great Presbyterian homeland, Scotland.

Drew's Jura 10 here. Will's Pinhook bourbon here. Evan's Port Charlotte 10 here. Tim Keller's sermons available here. Keller on suffering, from the Veritas forum, here. Books by Tim Keller referenced include

Episode 30: Covenant, Covenant Renewal, and Lagavulin Offerman (Charred Oak)
Drew is solo on this New Year's themed episode, reviewing a delcious new offering from Lagavulin and discussing covenant. Covenant tends to be a more common category in Reformed traditions, but even Arminians (and other) can value this biblical and theological category. Drew discusses why it matters that we worship a God who operates by covenant and not contract, and discusses the Covenant Renewal Service in the Wesleyan tradition. He does so while sipping the latest in the 11 year old Offerman Edition single malt from the Islay peatmongers at Lagavulin.
