Jesus' last miracle before his crucifixion: he healed a man wounded by one of his followers. Then he healed the apostle who wielded his weapon in anger. The wounded man’s name was Malchus and his ear was severed from his head by Peter, who believed it was his duty to save Jesus.
Imagine having this guy in your EE class. 🤣
In 1972, 17-year-old Rowan Atkinson was studying electrical engineering at Newcastle University—years before he became famous as Mr. Bean. He went on to earn a master’s degree in the same field at The Queen’s College, Oxford. While at Oxford, he got involved in comedy and…
This past Sunday, the final paragraph of my sermon manuscript ended by quoting Romans 8:1. In the preaching moment, however, I felt something else should be said. An old Melvin V. Wade Sr. “run” came to my mind, and I went with it. - There is an answer for your agony. - There…

This biography of Henry V has been my favorite vacation book. Recommended by the inevitably wise @holland_tom and @dcsandbrook from @TheRestHistory it magnificently subverts the popular view of his youth and offers a narrative of great courage. amazon.com/Henry-Astonish…
"Humility teaches us to find rest in confession. Rest from the need to hide, the need to be perfect. We rest by saying, both to God and others, 'I am not enough. I need help.'” (Hannah Anderson)
A little Monday morning exercise: Right off the top of your head, 5 things you’re thankful for. No particular order. Don’t give them deep thought or try to be impressive. Just a spontaneous 1-5. Go.
I use a lot of languages regularly or sporadically in my work: Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Anglo-Saxon, German, Italian, French, Spanish, Welsh, even Russian once or twice. I've taught courses in the History of the English Language. I write on etymology as Monday's entry at our…
Christians are being killed in Syria.
Islamic terrorists executed the head of an Evangelical Church in Syria—along with 12 of his family members, including children, his brother, and elderly parents. 20 Christians were massacred. Unforgivable silence from the media!!!
Writing IS thinking:
Yes. Writing is not a second thing that happens after thinking. The act of writing is an act of thinking. Writing *is* thinking. Students, academics, and anyone else who outsources their writing to LLMs will find their screens full of words and their minds emptied of thought.
Herein lies the problem of constant conflict. I’ve no doubt that the worship of the church @irishpresby serves is faithful. But the desire to impose a single form - which the reformed have never agreed on - can only lead to endless debate and division. Let’s avoid this.
The fact that you can walk into PCA churches and find a variety of different styles of worship and practices is very unfortunate. It not only undermines the RPW, but also makes it difficult for PCA members to transfer to other churches within the same denomination.
BREAKING: The Syrian Orthodox Church has issued an urgent plea to the world—save us from the Islamists. “I raise my voice to the international community and the United Nations, pleading for help.”

A speech that Bede would have admired x.com/danny__kruger/…

You thought social media was deformative…? @OpenAI: “Hold my beer.”
74% of teens use AI for friendship. Half talk to their AI friend EVERY DAY. One-third report the AI has said something that makes them uncomfortable. AI friendship bots are a freight train headed for our kids. It's malpractice not to protect them. axios.com/2025/07/16/ai-…
Mike Rowe: “We’ve been telling kids for 15 years to learn to code.” “Well, AI is coming for the coders.” “It’s not coming for the welders, the plumbers, the steamfitters, the pipefitters, the HVAC, or the electricians.” “In Aspen, I sat and listened to Larry Fink say we need…
