Craig’s video series on Matthew
In a series of roughly hour-long FREE videos, Craig lectures on Matthew’s Gospel. Here is a CLIP of the first couple minutes (not perfect filming conditions or the nicest-looking professor,to whom the camera turns after the opening seconds, but hey, it’s free!):
The series is available for viewing free at: http://faculty.gordon.edu/hu/bi/ted_hildebrandt/DigitalCourses/00_DigitalBiblicalStudiesCourses.html#Matthew_Keener
Ted Hildebrandt filmed me for videos on Matthew, Acts, and Romans for the purpose of making these available free for ministers in parts of the world where in-class education was unavailable. Others can watch them for free also, of course. It’s sort of like taking me for class, but with fewer jokes, no evaluated assignments, and you don’t get any class credit! It’s also harder to know in advance where to skip around on the videos than it is using my commentary. But again: the video is free, so feel free to forward it to many people’s attention.

Review of Acts commentary
I haven’t previously posted or linked to reviews of my Acts commentary on this site because I have seen the commentary as serving especially technical readers, but this review by Matthew Sleeman helps give me some ideas for a broader audience. Also, its language is accessible (unlike more technical reviews) but most readers will not find it in some of the expected locations); Matthew and Oak Hill gave me permission to reproduce it here, for those who are interested in it:

I don’t want to set a precedent here, though, since mostly I am posting Bible studies (for edification) and seminary-related cartoons (for entertainment). And Acts is one of my more technical and expensive books. (I don’t set the prices, but as my publishers remind me, I am the one who writes the long books. With the final volume of Acts due out within the next couple months, however, I should have some shorter books coming out next year: The Mind of the Spirit (focusing on the theme of the mind in Paul’s letters); and, still shorter and less technical: Impossible Love; and the NT study notes for a Cultural Backgrounds Study Bible.)
Passion vs. legalism (66-second video)
Legalism is not the only reason someone would want to work hard. Sometimes it’s because we love and care about what we’re doing, about our mission, and/or about the people we’re trying to serve.
