The Life and Faith of Tim Tebow
There’s a great story at ESPN about the life and faith of Florida Gators’ football star Tim Tebow. “There are plenty of athletes who talk the pious talk.

How Often Should We Take Lord’s Supper?
Jim Hamilton continues a series of interesting posts at Russell Moore’s blog. This time he asks how often churches should celebrate the Lord’s Supper. He says “Let’s cut straight to the chase: I think the New Testament indicates that the early church took the Lord’s supper every Lord’s day, that is, every Sunday.”
