Reading Classics – Edwards Takes a Day Off

Reading Classics Together Collection cover image

Thursdays are the day I dedicate to reading and writing about the classic books of the Christian faith. We’re well into Jonathan Edwards’ Religious Affections and have been moving at about a chapter (or heading) per week. This week I did not live up to my end of the bargain. It was one of those crazy weeks where it seems I spent more time out of the house than in and where the time I spent in the house was dedicated to everything but reading. So with my apologies I am going to have to bump this week’s reading into next week. Hopefully this gives us all a chance to take a breather and catch up with our reading. I’ll bring you the next update next Thursday. Sorry!
