Conference Media


Recordings from Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary’s annual conference, featuring sermons, lectures, and panel discussions on key theological, historical, and pastoral topics.

The Triumph of the Church

A sermon exposition of Psalm 2 showing Christ’s mediatorial reign, the nations’ futile rebellion, and the church’s ultimate triumph—illustrated from Acts 4 and Revelation 12.

The Office of Temporal Affairs: Deaconship

A defense of a robust, biblical diaconate arguing Acts 6, Philippians 1:1 and Romans 12 support the office’s foundation, nature, and duties. Calls for clearer definition, ordination, and esteem for deacons.

The Means of Grace

Sermon on Acts 2 defining the outward means of grace—word, sacraments (baptism & Lord’s Supper), prayer, and fellowship—grounded in Westminster catechism and Puritan theology.

Unity of the Covenant

Argues the unity and continuity of God’s covenant from Abraham through Sinai to its fulfillment in Christ. Faith, not mere outward signs, is the basis of covenant inclusion.

Federal Theology of the Westminster Standards

Overview of federal (covenant) theology in the Westminster Standards: covenant of works vs. covenant of grace, its biblical grounding, historical development, and modern critiques.

Jeremiah 31 and the New Covenant

A sermon on Jeremiah 31’s promise of a new covenant: though Israel broke the old covenant like an unfaithful spouse, God’s electing love secures a new, grace-filled covenant. God keeps his vow and writes his law on hearts.

Scottish Covenant Theology

Overview of Thomas Boston and John Murray, their covenant theology and disputes (esp. Genesis 2/Adamic covenant), with historical background of federal theology in Scotland.

The Covenant and Our Children

Exposition of Romans 9 arguing that covenant children (baptized) are members of the church by covenant succession, possessing special covenant benefits and pastoral implications.

Covenant Confusion

Argues against recent attempts (Ralph Smith, Auburn Avenue) to redefine ‘covenant’ as ontological within the Trinity, warning this distorts historic Reformed covenant theology and justification.

Justification by Faith Alone

A sermon on Romans 3:19–28 asserting justification by faith alone, not by works, and warning against modern challenges (Shepard controversy, the New Perspective, and federal vision).

The Regulative Principal

A Reformed sermon on worship: worship in spirit and truth, the regulative principle, and the need for biblically shaped forms that express and teach theology (John 4).

Calvin and the Worship of God

Examines Psalm 2 and John Calvin’s pastoral emphasis: worship is central—meeting with God—and must follow Scripture (the regulative principle); theology exists to serve the church.

The Purpose of Worship

Sermon on Psalm 100 outlining the duty, purpose and foundation of corporate worship—calling nations and the redeemed to praise and serve God in Christ and in truth.

The History of Worship in Presbyterian Churches

Overview of worship history in Reformed/Presbyterian churches: Calvin’s liturgy and regulative principle, psalter use, Knox’s reforms, and the Westminster Directory’s worship and Sabbath.

The Psalms and Contemporary Christian Music

A critique of contemporary Christian music and its rapid spread in Protestant worship. Traces roots to revivalist and Pentecostal hymnody and questions its theology and simplicity.

Reformed Liturgy

Argues for reclaiming richer Reformed liturgy and intentional worship postures, affirming forms consistent with the regulative principle and historic Presbyterian practice.

Worship from the Heart

Exposition of John 4 urging worship in spirit and truth: prioritize heart and Scripture over external rites; Christ is apprehended chiefly by the preached Word and sacraments.

The Glory and Beauty of God

Exposition of Psalm 93 declaring Jehovah/Jesus as eternal, majestic, and mighty King whose reign calls for holy worship and response; ties Psalms 92–100 and the Sabbath.

Seeing God’s Glory

Sermon on Moses’ plea “Show me thy glory” (Exod. 33). Calls believers to secret communion, humble boldness in prayer, and a deeper longing for God’s glory amid trials.

Experimental Calvinism

A sermon arguing that true Calvinism is experimental biblical Christianity—theocentric, deeply experiential, and doxological—rooted in Scripture and the Reformed/Puritan heritage.
