The First Testament

"We" are doing the Old Testament on Internet Monk at the moment. There are lots of profitable things to be read:

Posts on the First Testament.

And a few classic posts on brokenness (don't know why these ones touch me so. Maybe a result of the disconnect between my own experience and the theoretical 'triumphalism' I grew up with):

Getting better?
I have my doubts (already quoted here, this is an abridged version)
Marriage = Running Wounded
Choose death to anything but grace

And finally, a thought-provoking one about our attitude to the Bible: What is the Bible?

actually I find those brokenness ones more depressing than encouraging.
Am really encouraged by your home ed posts though!

Did you see the follow-up comments on "I have my doubts"?

I have to depend on grace being the essential truth.

How to eat the internet

Difficulty keeping up with your internet consumption?

What I use is The Old Reader, which allows you to follow all the blogs/sites your interested up in a single unified "inbox" where new articles appear on their own, so you don't have to go looking for them.

It's free, (though I pay for it because it's so good).

Comment manger l'internet

Avez-vous de la peine à rester à jour avec votre consommation d'internet?

J'utilise The Old Reader, qui permet de suivre tous les sites/blogs qui vous interessent dans une seule 'boîte de réception', où les nouveaux articles apparaissent tout seul, sans que vous ayez besoin d'aller les chercher.

C'est gratuit (mais tellement utile que j'ai choisi de payer quand-même).
