In preparation for our Ecclesia and Ethics conference (ecclesiaethics.com), we’re putting together a few video interviews to raise interest and excitement.

As I am writing this I am currently recovering from celebrating New Years Eve at Times Square in New York City with co-blogger Caleb Johnson.

Carl Park from the Gospel Coalition shares his thoughts about Lin’s Christianity. Here is a similar post by Timothy Gombis. Additionally, here is an opinion piece by David Brooks from The New York Times. Ben Witherington offers a critique of John Piper’s recent statements that...
The idea of launching this blog was first discussed last Fourth of July weekend.
On a weekly monthly sporadic basis we have a post called “Around the Town” in which we draw your attention to some articles the contributors to The Two Cities have read that we think are worth your while. If you’ve read any of them, hopefully you agree. What you may not have noticed or ever clicked on is the blogroll at the bottom of our homepage. Each of links featured there is to a blog that at...
