Articles of interest to White Oak ARP

Sean Lucas is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine. His book "On Being Presbyterian" is a must read if you are a member, or thinking about becoming a member, of a Presbyterian church. Also, his biography on R.L. Dabney is inspiring and convicting - Lucas aims a Gospel tinted magnifying glass on this Southern Presbyterian stalwart.
Lately, Lucas has been working on a biography of First Presbyterian Church, Jackson MS and has written two articles about what he has learned in the process of writing this history. FPC is an historical church that has stayed true to the Gospel over these many years --- there are many similarities between that church and our beloved White Oak. I highly recommend reading these two articles linked below.
