There he is in his splendor. What a guy! He’s the man who hopes to walk off with your daughter ... hold on a moment. Maybe he isn’t the best thing since sliced bread. Maybe he is trouble with a capital "T." Or maybe he is a great guy, but just not the great guy God intends for your little girl. How can you tell? 
In this fast-paced message, Doug Phillips explains that the greatest gift a dad will ever give away is his daughter. He examines the biblical qualifications for suitors and concludes that the Bible does not anticipate perfection, but minimal threshold requirements must be met. He examines the need for careful discrimination for determining if two are "equally yoked" and the doctrine of the "bride’s price." Doug also points out biblical examples of wickedness by fathers toward suitors and urges dads to act decisively, but with charity, respect, and love.

You believe in the Bible, but can you defend the canon of Scripture? You know that God's Law should be binding on men, but which laws are still applicable? You trust that God is sovereign, but how do you work through such thorny concepts as the will of man and election? You want to tell the world about Christ, but do you lack the biblical confidence on how to defend your faith against cynics? These and other foundational issues are the subject of our Theological Bootcamp, volumes I and II. Recorded in a local church in San Antonio, Texas, this series includes the clear and helpful teachings of Dr. Ken Gentry, Dr. Michael Butler, Jeff Pollard, and Doug Phillips. Whether you are a father seeking to disciple his family, a church shepherd wanting to provide excellent material for Bible studies, or a Christian student hoping to be rooted in the foundational doctrines of the Faith, Theological Bootcamp I and II will help you to fulfill the biblical mandate to "be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear" (1 Peter 3:15).

Once upon a time, there were giants in the land. We have forgotten about these giants because we have removed the ancient landmarks from our children. Those landmarks were the histories of God's providential mercies, once told to every schoolboy and girl by grateful fathers and mothers. To build a future for our children, we must remember the past, but we must see the past through the lens of biblical Christianity. We must be grateful for the hand of God in our nation and we must teach our children to be grateful (Psalm 78). Toward this end, Vision Forum Ministries is pleased to present Landmarks & Liberty: The 2003 Faith & Freedom Tour, recorded on location in historic Massachusetts. From Plymouth Rock to Boston Harbor to Lexington Green -- through this album you will learn about the signing of the Mayflower Compact, the Witch Trial proceedings at Salem, the Battle of Lexington with its ''shot heard round the world,'' and more. Listen as Doug Phillips, Dr. Paul Jehle, and Richard ''Little Bear'' Wheeler tell the stories of the godly Pilgrims, Puritans, and Patriots of early New England who helped forge our nation even as they kept covenant with God. 8 CDs. Topics and Places Include: 'Mayflower II' Plymouth Rock Pilgrim Mothers Massasoit Church of the Pilgrimage Plimoth Plantation Salem Witch Trials Thanksgiving Lexington Green Copp's Hill Burying Ground Forefathers Monument

The true-life drama of David and Bathsheba remains among the most iconic morality stories of love and lust, honor and betrayal, nobility and tyranny, and judgment and redemption in all of history. The lessons from the sins, repentance, and life consequences for David transcend time and culture, but are especially relevant in our modern age of technology-driven immorality and office environments which breed adulterous relationships. In this stirring talk, Doug Phillips presents this tale of sin and redemption with practical application for today's husbands and wives.

Did you know that the Bible has more to say about grandfathers than even fathers? But when was the last time you heard any teaching on the biblical role of grandfathers? If the answer is "never," then you may be another statistic in a culture that has forsaken biblical family life. The truth is this: rather than retiring from responsibility, "spending their children's inheritance," or being relegated to live their final days in solitude, the Bible pictures a world in which the greatest spiritual contributions in a man's life come when he achieves the status of grandfather. Doug Phillips addresses with boldness and beauty the phenomenal vision of biblical grandfathering. Whether you are a grandfather, know one, or will someday be one, this recording is important for your listening library

God calls men to be men -- to act with manliness. This charge has been all but lost on the men of our day. In a powerful message delivered at the Tenth Annual Christian Boys' and Men's Titanic Society Meeting, Doug Phillips discusses the biblical doctrine of manliness and delivers this clarion call to the men of our day ''[B]e thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man'' (1 Kings 2:2).

Manliness

Are educators or teaching methods neutral? Are academic concepts void of context or presuppositions? Or should the Scriptures direct our educational philosophy? Whether you are 5, 15, 25, or 75 years old, God's Word applies to us all equally. Psalm 1 proclaims that the man who does not counsel with the ungodly, or commune with sinners, or enjoy the company of those who scorn the will and pleasure of God will be blessed! The truth of what we learn is important to God, but the environments in which we are educated, and the hearts of those who teach us, are critical to Him as well. In How Important Are Educational Choices?, join Doug Phillips for a one-hour examination of educational philosophies, their consequences, and what the Bible has to say to us regarding our choices.
