Film: “AgapePress” has a good article, written by Ed Vitagliano which reflects on the “End of the Spear” controversy. “Sadly, the result has been a blunted Spear, reducing the impact of the film, not only on many of the Christians who saw the movie, but also on those who refused to see it, and on unbelievers who observed the confusion.”

Audio: The panel discussions from the Together for the Gospel Conference are now available for purchase from the Sovereign Grace Store.

Humor: Did any of you attend the Together 4 Each Other Conference? One attender gives his post-conference report. Unfortunately, no one was invited to live-blog it. Maybe next year…

For those reasons, I like to occasionally create what I have created here–a roundup of brief, random thoughts about Christian living.

There is an entire sector of the publishing industry that is dedicated to undermining people’s confidence in the Bible.

Those Who Sing Songs in the Night

Imagine that you are sitting in a prison cell. This is not some posh or even stark 21st-century prison cell, but a primitive Roman one. Your back is pressed against cold stones. Your stomach is aching with hunger. Your nose is assaulted by terrible smells. Your heart is filled with despair. You know your death…
