Web: Bethlehem Baptist Church (i.e. John Piper’s church) has a funky new design for their web site.

Cool: A gallery of work from the world’s best cardstacker.

Politics: This is enough to make you roll your eyes. It turns out that Al Gore, two travels the world telling us to consume less power, pays over $30,000 a year in gas and electrical bills. Planks, needles, eyes and all of that.

Interview: Justin Buzzard has an interview with Graeme Goldsworthy.

Review: Alvin Plantiga has a great review of Richard Dawkins’ “The God Delusion.” “Dawkins seems to have chosen God as his sworn enemy. (Let’s hope for Dawkins’ sake God doesn’t return the compliment.)”

This is, perhaps, the best A La Carte I have seen in quite some time.

1. And who designed the Bethlehem website??? LOl

2. Those cardstacker pics are great. I can see the pictures used in the sermons of many pastors.

3. Needles and Planks! It’s time for such questions to be answered. They have been asked, but are usually not answered to any degree of sincerity.

4. I’ll just nod and act like I already know who these two guys are…

5. If Dawkins is God’s enemy, Dawkins must be insane. How can you be the enemy of the product of someone else’s imagination? On the other hand, I don’t think we can discount the fact that God is against Dawkins. That is the greatest problem that anybody has, and hating someone whose existence you deny is not a viable solution.

Bethlehem Baptist’s new website is a strange hybrid of traditional and contemporary design concepts; if you will, it would be “at home” in both a Web 1.0 and a Web 2.0 category.

I like the large mission statement and the three introductions, tailored to their three principal audiences, however the usability is slightly troublesome. It’s definitely not in the style of Tim’s work, so I doubt that he redesigned it.
