1. One of Tim Challies' specialities is melancholic, wistful posts. Here he writes of All The Things I Will Leave Undone.
  2. Lionel Windsor is sharing snippets of his book on Judaism and Christian identity. Here he provides a fresh take on the accusation of 'robbing temples' – it is about the misappropriation of funds intended for the Jerusalem temple.
  3. I find it amazing how annoyed I get when I hear people refer to potato cakes as 'potato scallops', bathers as 'togs' and SWOTVAC as 'STUVAC'. A map of different regional Australian terms.
  4. A post on the biblical virtue of modesty. I am sitting here listening to one of my colleagues have a friendly conversation with a young woman in his ministry about the importance of modesty in dress. An awkward topic, but he is doing it with fatherly gentleness and respect. This post says: 1) Modesty protects what is intimate. 2) Modesty accepts that our bodies also live in community 3) Modesty recognises that Bible is negative about public nudity this side of the Fall 4) Modesty is in line with the Bible's warnings about sensuality 5) Modesty affirms that we have more to offer than good looks and sex appeal.
