I have been posting links to some free or heavily-discounted ebooks and today I’ve got a few more links for you to check out. Puritan Library has loads of free classics for you to download in various ebook formats. Matthias Media has the ebook version of The Essential Jesus available for free. This site has the church fathers and many other classics. And back to Kindle-only, Sam Storms’ To the One Who Conquers has been discounted to $1.99.

Pentecost Songs – Cardiphonia has put together a collection of newly-recorded songs that celebrate the work of the Holy Spirit. And it’s all free for the taking.

How a Calvinist Fights – Ray Ortlund shares some wisdom from John Newton.

The Noun Project – This is rather interesting: a project that “collects, organizes and adds to the highly recognizable symbols that form the world’s visual language, so we may share them in a fun and meaningful way.”

Men Are Dogs – Owen Strachan comments on a piece written by Maureen Dowd. Dowd looks at the Anthony Weiner scandal with some disgust.

Celebrity Pastors – Kevin DeYoung has some useful things to say about celebrity pastors in this article. “Over the past months there has been a good deal of back and forth on the blogs (good blogs from people I respect) about the dangers of ‘celebrity pastors.’ As is often the case with these matters, there are many legitimate concerns to be made and many overreactions to avoid.”

Solar Eruption – Here is some video of the recent solar eruption. It’s amazing to think of the sheer power of what happened there…
