Blogspotting: My pastor thinks Josh Harris must be confused. Take a look and see if you agree.

Education: ESV Blog pointed me to Biblical Training, a site that offers online courses by a wide variety of notable Christian teachers. Looks like there is lots to learn there!

People: Snopes.com, the Urban Legend Reference site responds to an email that buzzed around the Internet claiming that Steve Irwin became a Christian shortly before his death. To this point the status of the story is “undetermined” but sadly it seems unlikely to be true.

Bible: Bible Explorer is giving away version 4.0 of their product with some Bibles and Reference books including Talking Strongs Greek and Hebrew Dictionary. They’ll be adding a new book every week including some solidly Reformed works.

Books: Grace and Truth Books is offering a great deal on one of my favorite books, Bruce Ware’s “Father, Son and Holy Spirit.” They have it on sale for only $9.50, far less than any other place I’ve seen. There are a limited number available so grab a couple now!

    The Thing That Would Make Everything Okay Forever

    It does me good to pause from time to time to read an account of a person coming to faith. It never ceases to fascinate me how many different paths we take to that one door and it never ceases to encourage me to read about another person’s experience of coming to the end of…
