In the first hour today, Kerby welcomes back Penny Young Nance, president and CEO of the nation’s largest women’s organization Concerned Women for America and author of the new book Feisty and Feminine: A Rallying Cry for Conservative Women. Penny discusses her book.
In the second hour Kenneth L. Gentry, Jr., retired Presbyterian pastor, research professor in New Testament (Whitefield Theological Seminary), theological writer and speaker joins us to chat about his book, As It Is Written: The Genesis Account Literal or Literary?
“Conservative women have never fit neatly into stereotypes, especially conservative Christian women,” says Penny Young Nance. “We’re not the humorless, dim-witted ‘church ladies’ Saturday Night Live has made us out to be. Today’s conservative women are intelligent, well-educated, compassionate, accomplished, funny, and fearless—and it’s time for us to stand up and be heard. In fact, we have an opportunity like never before to offer words of redemption to a world gone mad.”
Some of the key issues for which he has educational materials include: Calvinism, reformed theology, Presbyterianism, eschatology in general, postmillennialism, preterism, the Book of Revelation, theonomy, six-day creation, presuppositionalism, predestination, lordship salvation, infant baptism, the Christian worldview, Christian education, the Christian and alcohol, and more.
He has produced in-depth materials critiquing and rebutting dispensationalism, Hyper-preterism, the framework hypothesis, paedocommunion, exclusive psalmody, annihilationism, and other popular views.
Because of his interest in promoting the Christian worldview, he also offers a Christian writing correspondence course: "Righteous Writing."
He graduated from Tennessee Temple University (B.A., cum laude), Reformed Theological Seminary (M. Div.), Whitefield Theological Seminary (Th. M.; Th. D., summa cum laude).
Gentry lectures widely, having been a featured speaker in over 100 conferences throughout America, in the Caribbean, and Australia.
This book presents in a simple but clear presentation the basic argument for a six-day literal interpretation of Genesis 1. It also explains and rebuts the framework hypothesis, which is a leading view in evangelical academic circles. This book is aimed at intelligent laymen, though with the academic reader in mind, with definitions of technical terms where they are necessary and Greek and Hebrew words transliterated.
