“Redemption doesn’t make us more emotional (as some charismatics might suppose) or less so (as many Reformed would prefer), anymore than it makes us more or less intellectual. What redemption does to the intellect is to consecrate that intellect to God, whether the I.Q. is high or low. Similarly, the important thing is not whether you are highly emotional or not; the important thing is that whatever emotional capacities you have should be placed in God’s hands to be used according to His purposes.” (John M. Frame, Doctrine of the Knowledge of God)

It’s the first Friday of the month…and that means I’ve been loading my article gun for a whole month. Enjoy!
RESOURCES
- There’s a new edition of Credo Mag focusing on why a triune God matters.
- The free book from christianaudio.com is a solid biography of AW Tozer.
- In case you missed this, the 9Marks eJournal for the last couple months was on the topic of Pastoring Christians for the Workplace.
- The 800-pound gorilla of free theological journals has a new edition; you should grab Themelios 38.1 whenever you’re ready to wrestle that gorilla.
- The free Logos book of the month is…unpronounceable. But if you want to add volume 17 of the Horea Homileticae to your collection, now’s your chance.
- The May issue of Tabletalk is out, and it’s all about the Shema. This is kind of like picking a favorite child, but if you only avail yourself to one of these resources on a monthly basis…it should probably be Tabletalk.
- The founder and director of abort73.com wrote a book: Love the Least (A Lot). Judging from what I’ve heard from those who’ve read it, it’s good. Really good. And it’s free (for now), so grab it.
- This is particularly for the gal in my flock who has read every single resource I have on canonology: Fred Butler updates and comments on Doug Kutilek’s list of resources on the canon. Steve Hays gives his list on Canonics here as well.
NEWS
- If you haven’t heard about the Jason Collins / Chris Broussard story this week, you should check out Denny Burk’s coverage. And then cruise on over to Triablogue for two very smart insights on our culture and its lack of logic.
- Have you tried Stoogle yet?
See you Sunday!
