I trust you enjoyed your weekend, whether it involved watching a service from home or attending a local church. My family enjoyed a mix yesterday—we attended the service, then did a Zoom-based church business meeting. We are definitely in a bit of a lull when it comes to Kindle deals. There are still a couple…

Lately I’ve been catching up with episodes of the Reformanda Initiative podcast. It’s a fascinating analysis and discussion of Roman Catholic theology and practice from an Evangelical perspective. Highly recommended! There is just one Kindle deal today, but it’s a relatively new book by Alistair Begg and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it on…
There’s another handful of Kindle deals to look at today.

They’ve got the associated Bible studies discounted as well. Why You Should Never Take the Mass…
Today’s Kindle deals include just a few titles. It has been a slow couple of days.

Sharing Jesus with Mormon Missionaries You can read this one now, of course, but it may also be a good…
I used to wonder at what age an afternoon nap became a near-crucial component of daily life. The answer, it turns out, is whatever age I am now (which I believe is 43). And now you know the answer too. Today’s Kindle deals include a couple of solid and relatively new commentaries as well as…
Today’s Kindle deals include more commentaries. Among them is Waltke’s excellent volume on Genesis.

Over the weekend I read Doc, the new biography of Roy Halladay. It is well done and will appeal to baseball fans who are missing the game as much as I am. (An interesting note: the cover of the American edition has him wearing Phillies garb, while the Canadian cover has him wearing his Blue…
Pro tip: When you hear extremely good news or extremely bad news about COVID-19, wait at least 24 hours before broadcasting it over social media, as it will almost invariably get countered or retracted in that time.
