My friend Randy Booth recently preached a sermon on blogging and the cursing of Shimei. The sermon notes were really good, and I recommend you take a look at them here. Randy is planning a series of messages at his home church on this general theme, and so after waiting an appropriate period of time …
Extended Deadline
The last time I did this, a discussion broke out over whether we ought to cancel Trinity Fest. With this shameless appeal, because I am running that risk yet again, let me begin by showing the consistency between repentance of sin and rejoicing before the Lord. The reason for Trinity Fest in the first place …
C.S. Lewis and First Editions. No, Not Kenny Rogers.
May I take a minute to plug Santa Cruz Books? If you would like to get your hands on a C.S. Lewis first edition, this is the place for you. I have added this site to my Books section on the left. Full disclosure: the site is run and maintained by a co-grandparent of the …

Well, Then. Have At It.
I am glad to announce a new feature of this blog, which is that it is actually becoming a blog. Up to this point, it has been more of a web site, without the capacity for you all to respond or comment. But as of this morning, you should notice at the bottom of each …
Meat and Potatoes Blues
In the most recent Credenda on the blues, I made this comment in passing. “How are we to make sense of all this as Christians? The blues, just like everything else we try to think about, are not neutral. Nothing is ever neutral. So how are we to evaluate what we listen to? Should we …
