This whole “snowpocalypse” and “snowmageddon” thing was way overblown. We got a pretty good snowstorm, but within a few hours the roads were clear and life went on. For which I’m grateful.

Minibook Blowout – New Growth Press (a.k.a. CCEF) has put all of their minibooks on sale for a week only. You can buy the 5-book sets for just $10.

Google Art Project – In case you haven’t seen it before, well, this is well worth browsing through.

Chicago Blizzard – These are amazing photographs of the blizzard that buried Chicago.

Intentional Parenting – Here is a review of the latest book from Cruciform Press: Intentional Parenting. “This book is a fantastic introduction to gospel-centered family discipleship. I am the pastor for discipleship at our church and I plan to recommend (if only I could require!) this book to every parent in our congregation. I will especially be looking for opportunities to use this to train new and young parents.”

Groothuis on Social Media – Douglas Groothuis has posted a recent contribution from The Christian Research Journal. He writes about the world of social media.

The United Kingdom Explained – This short video tries to make sense of the United Kingdom. It’s more interesting than it sounds.
