Science: Here are 13 things that don’t make sense.

People: And speaking of things that don’t make sense, Michael Jackson has converted to Islam. Or that’s what Kim Riddlebarger says.

Islam: And speaking of Islam, Josh Harris recently read a fascinating article.

Design: And speaking of Josh Harris, I just helped him redesign his site. We combined his personal site with his blog into a pretty new package.

Personal: And speaking of me, I won’t be updating A La Carte again this week. As of 5:45 AM, I’ll be making my way to L.A. for the Shepherd’s Conference. Stay tuned this week for updates from the conference. It promises to be a good one.

Weekend A La Carte (7/6)

Beautiful Churches – This is an excellent article! “We stepped inside and beauty stirred my heart. Worship seemed the only appropriate response. It was clear that an artist had spent months, even years, with tools that chiselled, adorned, and beautified. Each detail, lovingly and carefully carved. In that room, the light glimmered and shone, reflecting…

The Challenge of IslamDr. Mohler offers some level-headed thinking about Islam and about President Obama’s remarks about it. “I criticize President Obama, not for stating that America is not at war with Islam, but for failing to be honest in clarifying that we do face a great civilizational challenge in Islam.

So they could “hear and learn to fear the Lord.” (Deut. 31:12-13) Children need the deep, rich truths of Scripture to know God, embrace the Gospel, and build a faith that…

These were the kind of days that involved ambulances, emergency rooms, bleeds, broken bones, and even terrifying diagnoses that, thankfully, turned out to be misdiagnoses.
