I Will Not Offer the Lord What Costs Me Nothing – H.B. Charles Jr. is fast becoming one of my favorite bloggers, and especially on the subject of preaching. This is another good article.

To: Dad – This is a sweet article from a daughter to her dad.

Charismatic Teaching Is Breeding Spiritual Havoc – Don’t react emotionally to this one. Read it and at least consider what Mbewe says.

E-Mail: The Relationship Blowtorch – Basically, make email your last resort.

Your Family Tree Explained – My brain hurts whenever I try to figure out all this stuff. The video helps, at least.

A Short History of the Executioner – The history of the professional executioner is a chronicle of perfecting the choreography of death. It’s a bit morbid, but still interesting.

Ten Boom

Worry does not empty tomorrow of its sorrow, it empties today of its strength.

—Corrie ten Boom
