Church: Mark Driscoll has written an excellent article about Church Smith Jr. and Sr., using the rift in their relationship to encapsulate the wider rift between generations of evangelicals.

Weird: Is your dog zen? If not, you’ll no doubt want to get him some zen dog treats. “ZenPuppy Treats are formulated with specific herbs, botanicals, and other natural ingredients to help promote your dog’s wellness; Beauty, Energy, Smarty, Agile, and Peace.”
