The Lost Art of Meeting a Spouse – “When it comes to finding your soul mate, lots has changed in the last several years. With the rise of online dating, over 30 million people are now looking for love online. In fact, online dating sites have now passed up every other way married couples meet, save one: being introduced by a mutual friend.”

Thick and Thin – The Big Picture shares a photo essay about the world’s population, showing those areas where the population is thickest and thinnest.

Street Preaching – “Artur Pawlowski, who preaches to Calgary’s homeless, says the city’s unwillingness to ticket or prosecute Occupy Calgary protesters openly violating bylaws he himself has been charged for many times is proof that the city has a bias against Christians.”

Wi-Fi in Hotels – You’ve probably noticed this, as I have. “Largely because of the broad use of iPads and other mobile tablets, which are heavy users of video streaming, the guest room Wi-Fi networks that most hotels thought they had brought up to standard just a few years ago are now often groaning under user demands.”

The Church and Sexual Confusion – Some valuable words on sexual confusion.

He Has Sent Redemption – A great little video.

There is no menial work. Jesus came not as a philosopher, not as a general. He came as a carpenter.

—Tim Keller
