John Piper Quotes – Jamsco has another of his roundups of witticisms from John Piper. A personal favorite: “I cannot imagine that it would be satisfying to become an itinerant conference speaker. Yuck.”

Celebrity Rock Star Pastors – Thabiti Anyabwile is on a roll lately over at his blog. Today he is talking about the rock star, celebrity pastor.

American Politics – David Murray makes a rare foray into American politics and I think I pretty much agree with what he’s saying about Mitt Romney. The press has conveniently forgotten that he is a Mormon. If he gains the Republican nomination, they’ll suddenly remember.

Old, Settled and Reformed – Doug Wilson wonders where the young, restless, Reformed will be when they’re not so young anymore. “The young, restless and Reformed movement has all the hallmarks of the kind of thing we tend to do in waves. As a certified alumnus of the Jesus movement, I sometimes feel like I am living in Deja VuVille.”

The Love of God – A free MP3 of “The Love of God” by Redemption Hill Music.

I Am Second – Lecrae shares his testimony.

Christ’s followers cannot expect better treatment in the world than their Master had.

—Matthew Henry
