World Reaction to Jackson’s Death
When a celebrity dies I’m often amazed to see how many people had, in a sense, lived vicariously through him. This is easy to see in this photo essay of people remembering Michael Jackson.


Piper vs. Wright on Justification
Trevin Wax has an article in Christianity Today that serves as a primer on the justification debate between Piper and Wright. It is a good way of getting oriented in the debate.

Counting the Cost of Sexual Immorality

Denny Burk explains why there’s a bit of a buzz around this year’s SBC meetings (at least if you read certain blogs!).
