Spiritual Hygiene: Noel has an excellent idea of what to do with The Outdoor Bible. “If I win, I plan on taping its pages on the wall in my shower or making a shower-curtain out of them.” You can, of course, win the Bible right here.

Community Blog: Ron Gleason continues his series on Postmodernism & the Modern Church.
