A La Carte (8/17)

Are We All Braggarts? – From the WSJ: “Boasting isn’t just a problem on the Internet. In a society of unrelenting competition—where reality-show contestants duke it out for the approval of aging celebrities and pastors have publicists—is it any wonder we market ourselves relentlessly?”

I Choose Grace – Here is one man’s response when a registered sex offender moved into his neighborhood.

A Closing Plea – Spurgeon knew how to bring it. Here is a closing plea from one of his sermons.

The Amish Population – The Atlantic writes about the exploding Amish population.

Miss Moose, Hit Bear – Yet another reason I love the Internet–so I can read stories like this: “A Norwegian driver who swerved his car on a rural road to avoid running into a moose hit a bear instead, authorities said on Thursday.”

God sweetens outward pain with inward peace.

—Thomas Watson
