Colson Continues to Defend ECT
R. Scott Clark has a good discussion about Church Colson’s answer to my question about ecumenism (as part of Colson’s recent blog tour).


The Vow
The Washington Post has a really nice story dealing with Dave Kendall, a man who has committed his life to caring for his disabled wife.


Plastic Bags–the Global Villain
The Times shows how plastic bags became a global villain through bad research and pure fabrication.


Together 4 the Madness
Jesse Phillips is putting together a Together for the Gospel March Madness bracket…for those who care about such things!


  • Weekend A La Carte (July 18)

    This weekend’s collection of long-form and think-pieces covers declining fertility rates, the Boy Scouts, The Odyssey, AI and the elderly, and Gen Z, plus reader recommendations.

  • A Solid Defense of a Very Defensible Position

    Some issues in the church seem to arise once, but then get permanently put to rest. Others, though, seem to arise time and time again, often in slightly different forms. Gender roles are squarely in the latter category.

  • A La Carte (July 17)

    Setting a financial finish line / A manifesto on generative AI writing / What the Bible teaches about karma / Dang it, social media / D.L. Moody’s commitment to God / Playing to not lose / Book reviews / Sales and deals / and more.

  • A La Carte (July 16)

    Gen-Z revival / Devotional material that hinders spiritual growth? / Does the day end in night / When you cannot sing, let the church sing for you / Three prayers for prodigal children / The ordinary and enduring gifts of the Spirit / and more.

  • Harder to Change
