Over at CanonWIRED, Nate and I have a conversation about the task of writing. In the near future, we may have another conversation about the mechanics of writing. Here it is.
Down on the Banks of the Ohio
The last few days Nancy and I have been speaking at the 2010 Midwest Homeschooling Convention in Cincinnati. The event is simply gargantuan (upwards of four thousand families), and vendor booths stretching over the horizon. Our many thanks to the organizers for inviting us; we had a grand time. I had a good conversation here …
Rick Warren as Curve Ball
In the minds of some, I was the bad boy at the Desiring God conference last year, and here I am asked about how John Piper decided to fill that slot this year. I thoroughly enjoyed Mitch Stokes biography of Isaac Newton in Thomas Nelson’s Christian Encounters series. An excerpt from that book is up …

For those who want to learn about the basics of Christian cultural engagement, this book enables you to progress without becoming progressive, and to be the kind of conservative who …
And Then the Darkness Falls

Now That’s What Lessons are For
A friend knows that I generally take a dim view of church organs, and thought that this might make me change my mind.
The Sabbath as Food
The best book I have ever read on keeping the Lord’s Day was written by a friend, Stuart Bryan. The book is called The Taste of Sabbath. You can go over to Credenda, and read something posted there on the same subject. In his bio at the bottom of the article, you can click through …
