Women: Lydia Brownback laments lost modesty.
Weird: This guy made a bad bet and now has to suffer the consequences.

Conference: And while we’re on the topic of Desiring God, here is a recap of the keynote addresses from the pastor’s conference that was held earlier this week.

A new serpent in the garden of Africa / On naming the dead / Why your favorite worship song’s grammar matters / 3 Reasons you should not date while watching porn / Would you forgive me of my narcissism? / Christianity Today and the sin of centrism / Kindle deals, videos, and more
Tuesday is the day most publishers release their new books. Here is a look at the Christian books that came our way this week, including Biblical and Theological Studies, From Silence to Sinai.
C.S. Lewis’s vices / How to graciously say no / Can’t you let me just attend? / When morningness is confused with godliness / Everyone doesn’t react the same way / Evangelizing with a dog / Kindle deals / New books
