Riding Light – You may not watch the entire video, but at least give it a look. “This animation illustrates, in realtime, the journey of a photon of light emitted from the surface of the sun and traveling across a portion of the solar system, from a human perspective.”

Worth the 400-Year Wait – I don’t want to link to too many book sales, but I thought some of you would be interested in this sale on the (newly published) works of William Perkins. It’s a fantastic deal.

When Reading the Bible Through Just Wouldn’t Do – I enjoyed this article on the day everything changed.
