Why I Decided Not to Pursue the Pastorate

Mar 8th, 2010 | By Douglas K. Adu-Boahen | Category: Uncategorized

It’s been generally public, and familial, expectation that I would enter the [...]

Mar 4th, 2010 | By Douglas K. Adu-Boahen | Category: Uncategorized

Yes, the MacArthur Study Bible, which personally I think is one of the finest out there, is being released  with the ESV. Considering I’ve just my MacArthur Study Bible to the point where it has literally come apart (the spine is whacked in three places), I’m mad excited this is coming out and the promo [...]

Declared Righteous: Rome vs. the Reformation
by R.C. Sproul, with comments

I had forgotten how much I liked R.C. Sproul and after reading through [...]



A Teenager’s Struggle with Depression

Feb 4th, 2010 | By Douglas K. Adu-Boahen | Category: Uncategorized

I think in many respects, I owe all my friends an apology for compulsively lying to them all the time. Every time one of them asks, “How are you doing?”, “Are you OK?” or something similar, I respond, “I’m doing OK.” Same with the folks at church, on campus, my family, especially my mum who [...]

Inane Theological Comment of 2009

Dec 30th, 2009 | By Douglas K. Adu-Boahen | Category: Uncategorized

A little backstory to this one. In August 2008, I started a blog called The Silly Sheeple Chronicles, along with a buddy of mine. I put out an article regarding a faith healer and “Bible teacher” very popular in African Pentecostal circles by the name of Chris Oyakhilome, who at the time was visiting my [...]
