Everything D.A.C.
Andy Naselli has compiled an impressive list of, well, pretty much D.A. Carson has ever done. He lists all the books, articles, reviews, lyrics and edited series with which Carson has been involved. You’ll see (as I did) that Carson does more in a week than most of us do in a decade.


How I Got Comfortable Shouting To God
Mark Altrogge explains how he got comfortable overcoming his embarrassment at shouting worship to God. “I read about a man who conquered his self-consciousness by going out in the woods and shouting praises to the Lord. So I decided to try this. I lived on a farm at the time, so I tramped across a cow pasture to a stand of woods where I knew no one would hear me.”


How I Write a Book Review
Leslie, a reviewer for Discerning Reader, shares how she goes about writing a book review.


She Is Telling You Thank You
