Join us at The Whosoever Will Bible Conference in Reisterstown, Maryland preceding the 2014 Southern Baptist Convention to be held in Baltimore. Hosted by Northwest Baptist Church, speakers include popular preachers in the SBC like Paige Patterson and Fred Wolfe. Included also will be a special guest session by Dr. Norman Geisler and a debate on Calvinism between Paul Cooper and Braxton Hunter. We hope to fellowship with you there.
I'm curious, is either Pastor Cooper or Dr. Hunter a Calvinist? Or is it a simulated debate?
Personally I've always found debate to be most challenging/helpful when both sides are true proponents of the idea they are defending.

Hi Josh,
My understanding is Cooper is a Calvinist. You can read more on each's profile here http://northwestbaptistmd.org/uploads/Brochure.pdf

Peter,
I am curious to know where you did your doctoral work.

Peter,
Wayne Dorsett is a very long time friend. He pastored my wife's home church in Alabama where I preached my first ever sermon (thankfully there was no recording). Love Wayne. Fred Wolfe is also a friend, though more an acquaintance. He pastored Cottage Hill BC for years and was pastor to my mom and some other family members.
I'm sure they will be blessings at the conference.
Blessings to you.
