Week after next Nancy and I will be in Atlanta with hundreds of other classical Christian educators for the annual ACCS conference. These conferences are always a wonderful time, and the phrase that I have used to describe them is “simultaneously overwhelming and encouraging.” If you are at all interested in the recovery of classical …
Even Interestinger
Over the few years this blog has been up and going, I have periodically given a report on the web traffic doings here. The natural time for doing this is birthdays, but I was so busy that this blog’s third birthday passed by a few weeks ago without me noticing it. Oops and sorry. But …
More Leepikey Stuff
The good folks at Veritas Press asked me if I would write an open letter to Nate about Leepike Ridge for their monthly electronic newsletter. I was happy to do that, and you can read what I wrote at this web site. Be sure to check out Laurie Detweiler’s review of the book after my …
Enthralled
A number of our projects have sort of met at the intersection, and so over the last few weeks I have had a lot to announce. We are very grateful to God. The latest announcement, and one that we are really excited about, is a series of Bible stories for young children. They are published …
Does Your Marriage Need Help?
This is pretty funny, and outlandish, but I bet that any pastor or marriage counselor has a comparable story from real life.

Calvinist Romance
Somebody sent me this. I would give artistic credit if I knew the point of origin, but I don’t. As it is, I just throw it out there to join in the cyber-whirl.
Third in a String of Shameless Appeals
I am (kind of) getting the hang of posting pictures. And when you first find a hammer, everything looks like a nail. Let me remind of our upcoming Trinity Fest. This is our third annual run at this, and we are looking forward to it a great deal. You can look at more detailed info …
Second in a String of Shameless Appeals
As some of you may know, I have written some stories for kids set in the colonial era. The first was Blackthorn Winter, the second was Susan Creek, and the third, Two Williams, is now out. Here is a little descriptive copy from the back cover: Caught up in the American War for Independence, young …
A Real Life Changer
A number of years ago I had my secretary transcribe a talk my father had given on dealing with bitterness. I then went through her transcription and edited it for publication (without telling my dad), and we sent it off to the printers. It came back in booklet form in a stack of boxes, and …
