Weekend Links
New look to the BLOG and to the weekend links. The hope is that this will make it faster for my readers to find the links that most interest them. Enjoy.
Did Jesus Really Rise From The Dead: A Surgeon-Scientist Examines the Evidence (by Dr. Thomas A. Miller, MD.—Book Review from Apologetics 315)
Battling Bart Erhman’s Poor Scholarship and Emotional Arguments (Credo House Ministries—short but helpful article on the popular quote machine for liberal media wanting to disregard and discredit the Bible.)
What are the Big Theological Issues of Our Time?
(The first non-Dutch president of Calvin College has some ideas and they are worth hearing. Another question is, are we, the church, ready for the challenges coming our way?)
The Bully Culture of Liberal Politics and Ideas (Read this article carefully. Think of one way you can combat this trend.)
It is Unbelievable to Me that this Commercial is Controversial at any Level (Our world is crazy. People are people. I hope they run this commercial for the next 30 years.)
Better Engagement
with the Land
How Can We Eat our Landscapes? (Pam Warhurst: Turning spare space into food and community. TED talk and video. Great, great concept.)
Obama Administration is Covering Up What Really Happened to Seal Team 6 (Wake up America, we are living in 1984 with this administration. Orwell couldn’t make this stuff up.)
The Cover-Story Coverup May Be the Biggest Scandal of All (Charles Krauthammer asks the question that really needs to be answered.)
Why “best practices” Often Aren’t (Thought provoking and helpful and hopefully, a dash of realism against the pattern of running like lemmings to conferences for solutions to ministry problems.)
The Difference between Congregational Worship and a Concert (Worship is the most important thing we do. So it is always worth a great discussion. John Piper and 77 comments.)
Incredible Sculptures Made Completely Out of Wood (I love that such gifts of God are given to the world like this artist. May he find his greatest joy in bringing glory to God.)
