Theology: Doxa Digital Press has released all 4 issues of the Founders Journal 2003 for free download from their web site. They have several other good, free resources as well.

More Theology: Granted Ministries is a site I just discovered that “consists primarily of sermons that are available for purchase or free download.” It has lots (and lots!) of valuable resoureces to offer you.

Video: There is an amazing video at Google Videos showing the Australian lyrebird, a bird that attracts a mate by imitating just about every other sound it hears, whether that be the sounds of other birds and animals, or the sounds of car alarms and chainsaws.

A La Carte (November 27)

A La Carte: John Piper on false teachings / Everything is television / Is it Satan or God? / The hard way is the easy way / Backward progress / Treat people like adults / and more.

The Danger of Defensive Sanctification

There is a certain kind of sober-mindedness that seems to come over Christians as they age. It can flow from many sources, I’m sure, but I think it often arises from a kind of fear—a fear that they may not finish their race without some kind of a major stumble. After living the Christian life…
