Indeed, we put bits in horses’ mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires. Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts…

Here is a list of some of the better articles I have read this week. Enjoy! Kevin DeYoung is always worth a read. This post is from earlier this year, but helps to clarify some of the things going on in the Evangelical world today. For what it’s worth, I’m between a 3 and a…
Lots of great pictures to share this week, so let’s get to it! (As always, if your browser does not show you the entire picture, just click on it) One of my greatest challenges on furlough is limiting the number of books I acquire. Believe it or not, this is doing pretty good. View this…
