Man on the Edge

Hello All,

Just joined the PB this past Friday, and wanted to introduce myself. My wife Sara, our little ones (Moriah and Antje) and I are members of a PCA church in the Bay Area, California (Grace Church of Pleasanton). I'm a CPA (Certified Public Accountant for those of you who don't file taxes :-), and am teacing a course on ecclesiastical history in our all-church "Sunday school".

Here's a synopsis of my profile:

~Born and raised Nazarene
~Converted to Christ in a Reformed Baptist Church
~Ferrell Griswold introduced me to covenant theology / dominion (that is, his recorded lectures did)
~Continued learning and became convinced of the broader biblical teaching on the relation of NT to OT
~Favorite theologians: Augustin, Calvin, Bahnsen, Gillespie, Rutherford
~Favorite statesmen: Winthrop, Cromwell, Patrick Henry, Constantine the Great
~Hobby Horses: covenant of works, Mosaic judicials , optimistic eschatology, Settlers of Katan

Anywho, glad to be on board (pun intended).

Oh, I almost forgot to mention: "Man on the Edge" is a nick-name one of my elders came up with, since my name is Adam Brink.

Cheers,

Hey Adam,

what's it called when members of YOUR immediate family attempt to maneuver a dangerous situation to the limits of tolerance or safety in order to secure the greatest advantage?

Answer: Brinkmanship

I stayed up half the night thinking that up. It's all I've got... I'm spent.

Welcome sir, it's good to have you on the board.
