MacArthur ESV Study Bible
Crossway has officially announced that the MacArthur Study Bible is coming in the ESV. You can watch this video to see MacArthur introduce it.

The Importance of Seminary Training

Math of Publishing Meets the E-Book
This article from the New York Times looks at the way publishers make money through printed books and e-books. It reveals some of the challenges facing publishers as the realities of publishing change.

Witnessing at the Olympics
I was glad to read this great report from AIG on their evangelistic efforts during the Olympics. “The local residents and the international sports fans who assembled in Vancouver were very hospitable to our witnessing team.

Beginning with God
This book, geared toward exploring the Bible with very young children, looks quite interesting. “Beginning with God helps parents with young children to explore the Bible with their child. This book provides a simple way to start your child in a regular habit of reading God’s Word and growing to know God, who loves them.” Visit the link to download samples, etc.

It’s a Conspiracy

    When I Worship a Number

    I am a long way from retirement—from pulling back from the full-time day-to-day responsibilities of my vocation to instead begin winding down and preparing to step away. I am a long way from retirement, but not so far away that I can neglect planning for it. So, like most of my peers …
