Through The Blogroll

Today I thought I would highlight what some of the people on my blogroll have been writing about recently. If you are uncertain as to what a blogroll is, it is simply a list of other blogs I visit and recommend. You can see it by scrolling down on this page and looking in the right column. While some people link to just about every site under the sun, I try to keep mine fairly selective, linking only to friends or to sites I really enjoy and recommend. I click on every link in my blogroll just about every day and for some reason I always start at the bottom, so for today I’ll cover the bottom half of the blogroll.

David at He Lives has been writing about Free Will and how free will is more consistent with Calvinistic theology than with Arminian theology.

Tim at The Irvins has a new job driving a truck so spends more time driving around the US of A than he does blogging. While that is unfortunate for those of us who appreciate what he writes, I suppose it is better for his bank account.

The Jollyblogger has been covering a wide number of topics, including Jessica Simpson, Mary as Co-Redemptrix (sounds strangely familiar, actually) and, well, all sorts of those “oh-so-old” what ________ are you quizzes.

In The Faith shows just what exactly Good Friday and Easter are while also covering some of the recent faith-based headlines in the news.

Ochuk has been writing about awkwardness (or lack thereof), the certainty of life, and satisfaction with life.

Doug at Coffeeswirls continues to blog through the Bible, one day at a time. He has also been reflecting on Easter and on John Piper’s book Desiring God.

  • Mothering Against Futility

    The Futility of Motherhood

    Life is made up of so much that gives the appearance of being futile. There are so many tasks and responsibilities that we intellectually know to be important but emotionally feel to be fruitless. And if everyone struggles with this to varying degrees, I have it on good authority that mothers are prone to struggle…

  • New and Notable Christian Books for January 2025

    As you know, I like to do my best to sort through the new Christian books that are released each month to see what stands out as being not only new, but also particularly notable. I received quite a number of books in January and narrowed the list down to the ones below. I have…

  • Throw Out the Buoys

    Throw Out the Buoys!

    When I was young, my family owned a cottage on a lake. From a young age, I loved to head out in our little motorboat so I could explore that lake and the others that were connected to it. I could easily make a day out of slipping into little inlets to see where they…
