Is Evolution Biblically Acceptable? – I’m glad to see Rick Phillips taking on this huge question.

Officer Rafael Ramos – CNN: “Rafael Ramos was an unusual cop. He saw the streets of New York as his ministry. In fact, he was just hours away from becoming a lay chaplain and graduating from a community-crisis chaplaincy program before he and fellow New York police Officer Wenjian Liu were gunned down in their patrol car Saturday in Brooklyn.

A Bad Business Model – “Imagine if you could only fill up your car with one brand of gasoline. Once you bought the car, you were trapped — try any other brand, and your car wouldn’t even start. It sounds crazy, but this same business model is proliferating across industries from coffee machines to cleaning brushes.”

Disassembling a Rolex – I found this video strangely fascinating–stripping a $8,000 watch to its smallest component and then putting it back together.

Kara’s End – Those who have been following Kara Tippett’s blog will want to read this update.

Have you no wish for others to be saved? Then you’re not saved yourself, be sure of that!

—C.H. Spurgeon

    To Those Who Married Poorly

    Some marriages are the stuff of fairytales. Some are not. Some husbands marry wives who respect them and some wives marry husbands who love them as Christ loves his church. Some do not. The sad fact is that some people marry well and some people marry poorly.

    For every family in the church where the children seem to be well established in the faith, there will be another family where one or more of the children have deserted it… How can we help bring comfort to parents in pain?
