A La Carte (8/19)

Let There Be Light
Here is an incredible photograph. It would make a great desktop background, I think!
Social Justice and the Poor
Kevin DeYoung is beginning a series that sounds interesting. "I want to take a look at what the Bible says about social justice and the poor. I imagine that this series will last a couple months, with probably a post a week on the subject."
Suffering and the Sovereignty of God
At Amazon you can get the Kindle version of John Piper's Suffering and the Sovereignty of God for free (for a limited time).
Deal of the Day: Mid-Week Markdowns CBD has a few interesting books for great prices in their mid-week markdowns. No Compromise: The Life Story of Keith Green, Preaching by John MacArthur and How to Be a Christian in a Brave New World by Joni Eareckson Tada all stand out.

Speaking of desktop backgrounds, I have been subscribed to a certain wallpaper RSS feed for many moons now. They know how to keep the wallpapers clean. I find no need to even hunt for new wallpapers anymore. May I recommend InterfaceLIFT?

“But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perseveres, being no hearer who forgets but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing” James 1:25 Oh to be one who perseveres/abides/studies the law … James is clear it makes all the difference.
