Izaac blogs

One of the most terrific things about working at Cumbo is the team there, who all love Jesus and are doing their best to let others know the truth about him.

Izaac is one of them, and he has started a blog recently. Check this recent entry on manhood and metaphors, with a great insight into the right use of Isaiah 40.

A close cousin to vandalism

Those of you who follow the links in my blog sidebar will notice that I keep up with a few theological blogs that I consider valuable, and then a fairly eclectic collection of political comment, stuff on global warmening (we're done for, we're done for I tell you), occasional friends' blogs (sorry I love youse all but I'm not linking everybody), things written by cabbies when they're off their shifts, George Orwell's diary from 1938 on, and stuff on time management and uncluttering your house.

(Yes, there are more, including some I think very highly of, but you'll just have to keep a watch on that sidebar won't you ;-) )

From time to time themes will crash into each other. So it was a pleasant surprise to find a blog that I thought was kind of about time management exegeting a Bible verse.

Check this blog

Here's another blog that I am going to be checking regularly, because I so much enjoyed the previous incarnation. AB is putting his leftover sermon bits and pieces here, and like the Gentiles (or the dogs under the table), I am grateful to log in and pick up the occasional scraps.

Thanks for tossing them out, AB!

In all honesty

Here's a terrific blog. Jean was president of the Melbourne Uni Christian Union when I worked down there, and her husband Steve now works for the Australian Fellowship of Evangelical Students, at RMIT Christian Union.

Jean is a latter-day Puritan in the entirely positive and good sense of that word, and her reflections on being a wife and mother, and the nature of sin and grace, are well worth a close look. She is a specialist on puritans actually, with a Doctorate from Melbourne Uni which she received under Ian Breward (the same man who sent my thesis back recently with lots of metaphorical and well deserved red pen scribbles all over it).
