I Can Do All Things – Nathan Busenitz takes a look at an oft-misused passage. “But the irony is that, by taking this verse out of context, many people have actually turned it on its head—making it mean the opposite of what it actually means.”

It is Going to Be an Issue – Al Mohler offers some reflections on yesterday’s Supreme Court proceedings.

Side by Side – Westminster Books has some good deals this week, including one on Ed Welch’s excellent new book. Or, if you’re into Bible software you may want to check out the NIVAC Software Super Sale from Zondervan.

Hyper-Headship and the Scandal of Domestic Abuse in the Church – Justin Taylor summarizes an important sermon by Jason Meyer.

TGC Media Now Available – If you missed The Gospel Coalition conference, you can now at least catch up on all the content.
