Wednesday February 1, 2006

Humor: CBC reports that two guys in Nova Scotia messed with the wrong girl. “The teenager, fully trained in the 2,500-year-old martial art of jujitsu…” You know the rest!

Emergent: Paul shares that “Tyndale Seminary here in Toronto is hosting a conference on the emerging church.” He says, “I think pastors in particular need to wake up and realize this is not going away fast. Best to do some investigation and prepare to deal with its inherent errors.”

Bible: ESV Blog links to a speech delivered by Phillip Ryken where he discusses why his church uses the ESV.

Reading: Ligon Duncan checks in on the Together for the Gospel blog with a long article discussing his love for reading (and his Superbowl pick).
