When Scripture Is the Controversy – “If we learned anything from last week, maybe it’s that the real controversy among evangelicals in the coming days will be about the Bible, not homosexuality.” Exactly so.

Where Everyone in the World is Migrating – This fascinating and beautiful chart shows the mass migration of people today.

Good Friday in Toronto – If you live in or near Toronto, you may want to consider coming to the Toronto Gospel Alliance Good Friday service at U of T.

Late Night @ T4G – And if you’re planning to be at Together for the Gospel next week, why don’t you consider this late-night event with 20Schemes.

The Tongues of Angels – Nathan Busenitz continues to write about the gift of tongues and to offer a cessationist perspective. I’ve found the series both helpful and clarifying.

Extra Special Revelation – In this podcast Carl Trueman and the rest of his Mortification of Spin crew have a discussion about Sarah Young’s mega-selling, mega-problematic Jesus Calling.

  • Self Loathing

    Don’t Think Lower Thoughts of Yourself than God Does

    I can be prone to self-loathing. Sometimes this takes the form of thinking about things I’ve done or recounting words I’ve said and detesting myself for them. Sometimes it takes the form of thinking about who I am and hating who God has made me to be, or thinking about the way God has gifted…
