occasional reflections, meditations, observations from my place in the world, mostly about faith, music, breaking news, recurring problems, bad habits, nice places to visit, recommended restaurants, books worth reading, appropriate technology, avoiding speedbumps, and, in general, reasons to go on living

take and read
The newest collection of essays by one of the foremost theologians of our era, a man of genuine Christian piety, with experience teaching in Africa, Europe and the U.S. If the way forward is going to be shaped by the Trinity, the Creeds, the Scriptures, and the church across space and time; if we are to avoid fragmenting into thousands of little pieces; if our chief end (purpose) is to "enjoy God and to glorify Him forever"; if the human search for truth, goodness and beauty is grounded in his/her creation in the image of God, which is love...if any or all of this matters, these essays are worth exploring.
