"Death itself would start working backwards."

In what book do you find the following quote? (Place your answers in the comment section.)

"Her knowledge goes back only to the dawn of time. But if she could have looked a little further back, into the stillness and the darkness before Time dawned, she would have read a different incantation. She would have known that when a willing victim who had committed no treachery was killed in a traitor's stead, the Table would crack and Death itself would start working backwards."

Rap, the Bible, and Driscoll

It's nice to see when someone is able to bring some Light and Truth to a musical culture (i.e. rap/hip-hop) that is usually known for darkness and depravity. Lacrae's "Rebel" blends rap, the Bible, and a little Mark Driscoll. Enjoy. (Thanks to Ron Click for reminding me about Lacrae).

Cheering for the Other Side

This is certainly not a common story in the world of sports. Very encouraging. Contrary to the opinions of people like Christopher Hitchens (i.e. author of God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything), Christianity is good for the world.

A Yearly Read

There are a few books (besides the Bible) that I like to read each year. This one is certainly worth reading again and again.
