Spare the Rod, Spoil the Student – I enjoyed this as a story that nicely illustrates the maxim of “spare the rod, spoil the child.” (Note: there’s one bad word in there).

Personal Libraries of the (Near) Future – A cartoon for you. (HT)

Gnosticism, Nicea and Celebrity – Carl Trueman on recent events: “Now that it is official that the kind of questions raised in the third and fourth centuries relative to Trinitarianism are nothing more than the constructs of a bunch of middle aged white guys, it is worth perhaps spending a few moments in methodological and historical reflection.”

Tabletalk – Ligonier Ministries’ Tabletalk magazine offers up a batch of free articles every month and this month’s selection includes a few interesting ones!

The Three Little Pigs – This is a clever little bit of comedy.

Our business is to present the Christian faith clothed in modern terms, not to propagate modern thought clothed in Christian terms.

—J.I. Packer
