Where is the Church?

Posted by Martin Murphy on Thursday, December 30, 2010, In : Church 
    At the end of 2010 I ask the question “where on earth is the church or is it just in heaven?”  Why ask such a ridiculous question when we all know that the church of the living God is alive and well?  The question comes to mind when I am provoked by an ever increasing number of churches who have abandoned the true gospel for another gospel.  I recall a conversation with a seminary student about how difficult it is to find a biblical church.  During the conversation he told me about a ...

Confessional Christianity

Posted by Martin Murphy on Thursday, April 29, 2010, In : Creeds

About Me


Martin Murphy My first priority in life is spending time with my wife and enjoying life together. Next on the list is writing books. After spending nearly 30 years in the class room, the pulpit, the lectern, the study, and the library, I now devote most of my time consolidating my academic and practical gains by writing books. My web site is titled "Writing My Books" because last year my wife kept insisting that I start writing before it was too late. Every day counts when most of life is in the past. I starting writing my books last summer and my wife would often ask "what are you doing?" My answer was "writing my book." When I proposed the idea of a web site about my writing project I asked my wife "what should I name it?" Without a second thought she said "writing my books." I have a B.A. in Bible from Columbia International University and a Master of Divinity from Reformed Theological Seminary.
