It may be that I am lazy recently but I have seen so much good writing on some other blogs, that I don’t have much to say.  I was turned toward the blog reformation 21 by Dave Doran’s Glory and Grace (see side links).  Carl Trueman has an excellent (albeit lengthy) post on the new tool of post-modern debaters called…

Although there are many lessons God has taught me through this wonderful gift to our church, I will conclude this topic with a third that God has been teaching me.                  3.  My God is Big.  Rest assured, when you walk by faith and not by sight, you will stumble.  Maybe this sentiment…
