Audio: Paul Edwards will have Don Kistler as guest on his radio program today at 5 PM EST to discuss Jonathan Edwards’ Resolutions, their depth and how they compare (or not) with the shallow New Year’s resolutions of our day.

Blogging: A short time ago a journalist wrote an article entitled “The Blog Mob: Written By Fools To Be Read By Imbeciles.” Hugh Hewitt had a chat with this guy. Check out a portion of the transcript here.

Video: This may be the most boring video feed ever. It’s cheddarvision, a place you can watch cheese grow mold! Whee!

Church: Phillip Way asks (and answers) “Do churches die?”

Blogs: Rick and Nancy Pearcey now have a blog to go along with The Pearcey Report.

The Resolutions Poster – I like this–a poster that lists Jonathan Edwards’ resolutions. “In addition to spurring you on to good works by displaying the timeless tenets of one of America’s most famous preachers, Jonathan Edwards, it will also help other Christians pursue a more godly life, as all proceeds will be used to pay…

Where Was God’s Goodness in 2012? – Articles like this remind me why I have such respect for John Piper. “As this year ends, the question I am asking is: Where was God when so many good things happened this past year? … How can God be righteous and do so much good to us…

Do you know who God says you are?

Identity matters for at least two key reasons. First, understanding our identity—our true God-given identity—is vital to understand why we exist and what we’re to do in life, as it is likewise essential for framing a fitting perspective of others.

Not every thought makes a good article and sometimes an entire article can be distilled down to a single thought. For those reasons, I like to occasionally create what I have created here–a roundup of brief, random thoughts about Christian living.

Undermining the Bible

There is an entire sector of the publishing industry that is dedicated to undermining people’s confidence in the Bible. Many of these books shoot to the top of the bestseller lists with their novel conspiracies about the Bible’s origins, their theories about its hidden secrets, or their conviction that it is a mess of contradictions.

It is the conversation every father of daughters anticipates having at one time or another—the conversation with the young man who has expressed interest in securing her hand in marriage and who now seeks dad’s permission.

Modesty Requires Looking Away

The plane reached the terminal in Recife, Brazil and the ground crew opened the door. I have been through more airports than I can count1 and find they all kind of blur together—jetways, corridors, escalators, luggage belts. But for some reason, I remembered this one from my previous visit. After exiting the secure area, I…

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…

Now’s the Time To Consider a New Year’s Resolution

The Bible says nothing about New Year’s resolutions. It does, however, say a lot about resolutions in general—about the determination and resolve to improve our character, to sharpen our habits, and to live better in the future than we did in the past. In other words, the determination and resolve to be more like Christ.
