A La Carte (6/21)

Thursday June 21, 2007

Bible: BibleMapper is a really interesting program "that helps you quickly and easily create customized maps of the Holy Lands or study a particular period and aspect of Bible history." It is available for free.

Contest: I have announced the winners of the Discerning Reader contest over at DR.

Blogs: 9Marks Ministries has just begun a new blog called Church Matters. I'm sure it's going to prove worth a bookmark or the addition to your RSS reader.

Conference: Desiring God has opened registration to this year's national conference "Stand: A Call for the Endurance of the Saints." Speakers are John MacArthur, Jerry Bridges, Randy Alcorn, Helen Roseveare and John Piper.

Media: I found this article an interesting perspective on the news, especially after recently reading "Amusing Ourselves to Death."

Books: Monergism Books is having a sale on all Banner of Truth sets. This is your chance to get books by Owen, Edwards, Sibbes, etc for lower than ever before.

If you liked Amusing Ourselves to Death and the related article you linked to above, you might be interested in Neil Postman’s How to Watch TV News.
