Guidance on Guidance
Lydia turns to Ray Pritchard who provides some biblical wisdom based on four myths about God’s guidance (-5 points to me for such an awkward sentence).

Crossway Stands Behind Me
Marc over at Purgatorio shares with the world the title and subject of my next book. It’s not what you were expecting (then again, it’s not what I was expecting either).

Tabletalk on C.S. Lewis
This month’s Tabletalk Magazine (now available online!) focuses on C.S. Lewis. I particularly enjoyed an article by Leland Ryken about how to read Lewis (see page 18).

Coming Away Cold

We live at a time in which we are constantly inundated with information. We live much of our lives within the glow of digital devices that are constantly beeping, buzzing, and flashing to tell us there is new information available to be had—text messages, emails, tweets, headlines.
