Today is my twenty seventh birthday. Since we have home church tonight we decided to have my birthday meal and do presents last night. Dinner wasn’t anything too special, but at least I didn’t have to help make it or do the dishes. As for my gifts, I received a good balance of music and books which is all I asked for. I am already well into R.C. Sproul’s Getting The Gospel Right. I quite like Sproul, though he really does like to use big words wherever possible. Only in a Sproul book would you read (about the differences between Christians) that some are “loquacious while others are taciturn.” I also got a couple of John MacArthur books that were marked down for clearance. For music I got new albums by Bleach, Lost Dogs and a couple of others that I needed to round out areas of my collection. I will rate this as being a pretty good birthday!
