Tiger’s Buddhist Confession
Dr. Mohler looks at Tiger Woods’ apology and notes “Woods publicly reclaimed his Buddhist identity, having been raised in the philosophy of Thai Buddhism by his mother. The two key sentences are these: ‘Buddhism teaches that a craving for things outside ourselves causes an unhappy and pointless search for security. It teaches me to stop following every impulse and to learn restraint.’” Meanwhile, Mark DeMoss offers the apology that Tiger should have offered.
Uncle Jay Explains
My favorite Monday morning ritual.
A Word from Haiti

I was encouraged to read this report from Haiti. It’s about a week old now, having been written on the one month anniversary of the earthquake. “I think that I will remember this day as one of the most significant in my life, not because of what I did, but for its meaning. In fact, what I did today was insignificant, and may have even distracted from me fully engaging in the day.”

Great links today Tim! I especially thank you for the Brokaw piece on Canada — a timely reminder of our two countries history and friendship. I appreciate our neighbors to the north a bit more now.db

I think that the link for the Haiti article may be incorrect: http://www.wgm.org/Page.aspx?pid=5640. Great article though! I spent a week down in Haiti for medical missions a year ago and am amazed to hear what’s going on there.
