More Audio for the Digital Player

I've greatly enjoyed my Sansa Digital Player and am finding tons of good audio on the internet. For me this isn't a replacement for books. Perish the thought! I'm a "hands-on" kind of person and love to have a book in hand, and a pencil to mark it up. I try to fill up free time by listening to good music, sermons and lectures.

A few weeks ago I posted a list of files that I had on my digital player. I've since bought an memory card which has tripled the amount of memory on my player, so now, I don't have to replace files. I just add to them.

Anyway, I tried posting some links in the comments to that post, but I see that the links were added incorrectly. To resolve this issue I would like to share the links here. I'd be glad to hear your suggestions, too. Please leave them in the comments.
  • Andy Naselli has posted links to Dr Yarbrough's lectures on Adolf Schlatter. These are very helpful. Yarbrough is a leading authority on Schlatter. On a side note, it was interesting to me to learn just the other day that Karl Barth was a student of Schlatter's. Of course, Barth did not appreciate Schlatter's orthodoxy.
  • I've read a recent biography and introduction to the writings of Karl Barth (Barth for Armchair Theologians) and am now reading another for perspective. I'm new to Barth so I'm looking for as much help as I can find. In searching around the internet I found the following resources that are proving to be very helpful:
  • Karl-Barth Archiv (Most of these are in German, but two are in English. You can hear Barth for yourself--at least a short lecture.)
  • You can buy the set of his American lectures here.

  • Also, for a conservative perspective on Barth, I found these two lectures by Cornelius Van Til:

NOTE: please do not take my mentioning of Barth and providing links to audio of his lecture that I am simpathetic with his theology. I'm listening to these and offer these links to you for educational purposes. This is why I'm also providing Dr Van Til's very helpful critique of Barth's theology.

(NOTE: The rest of Van Til's lectures on Philosophy and Apologetics, which includes these two lectures, can be found here along with lots of other good audio.)
