Another Round of Provocation
Once again, the Ol' Aardvark mentions the works of others wherein he was provoked to laughter, sorrow, or thoughtfulness. As always, those mentioned here are welcome to collect and display their Golden Aardvarks large or small.
‡ First of all, Whether a psychopath, too, can be saved at Amor et Labor got me thinking about a topic I'd never really considered. The comment which followed looked a bit deeper into the specifics of repentance.
‡ Next, I highly recommend With Regrets, All My Love to anyone practicing, studying for, or contemplating a Church vocation. The Internet Monk lays his soul bare as he speaks to himself, his family, his readers, and his God about choices made and the reasoning therein.
‡ In his Theology Geek Blog, Jason Evans examines the politics of religion, the religion of politics, and wrestles with questions of "devout" vs. "extremist" Muslims and Christians as he explores Freedom — For those who we agree with.
‡ I couldn't not look: Scottius Maximus shows KMOV TV file pictures of anchorman Larry Conners atop the Saint Louis Arch. No, not in that long, small-windowed hallway — I mean on top. I don't remember the original 1990 broadcast, so maybe I was on vicarage.
‡ Wanted: Driving Instructor: No Fear and Strong Belief in Immortality Required — the author of Haunted by the Holy Ghost shows how she's also more than a bit haunted by her daughter's learning to drive. It's fear and faith and white-knuckled laughter all the way.
‡ And this just in from The Lutheran Logomaniac, Pastor Todd Peperkorn: Wisconsin Allows Jesus in Prison? This update has strong bearing on a shameful, little-known fact: It's nearly impossible for American prisoners to receive the blood of Christ in Holy Communion due to institutional prohibitionism.
Is it just me, or is this the most varied collection to date? ¶ 17:39 |
