2 things

1. I've begun listening to the preaching of Sinclair Ferguson and Alistair Begg at the Christian Life Conference in Memphis. I've listened to Ferguson's introductory remarks and was simply so blown away I'm going to have to listen again before going on, next time taking notes. Powerful stuff!

2. Also, found out from The Blind Beggar that I live in one of the least religious states in America! Not that I couldn't tell, but it's nice to have your intuition confirmed by the research!

Coming Attractions

The publishing wing of R. C. Sproul's Ligonier Ministries, like many other publishers, is making its various titles available to bloggers free of charge, provided they review the book on their blog. I've decided to take them up on the offer. I'm presently reading Sinclair Ferguson's In Christ Alone, and I'm excited at the prospect of sharing some of the wisdom of this book with you in the very near future. From the website:

In fifty short chapters arranged in six sections, Dr. Ferguson shows that Christ, who is fully God, took on humanity that He might be the Great High Priest of His people as well as the once-for-all sacrifice; that He now ministers to His people through His Spirit, crowning them with great and precious blessings; and that believers are called to duty, from cultivating contentment to mortifying sin. In Christ Alone is packed full of nuggets of Scriptural truth that will spark and fan the flames of the believer’s love for the Savior who is so beautiful in His person and so faithful in His work on behalf of His beloved sheep.
