J.I. Packers called the Puritans "Reformed Monks" - I desire to "resemble the inference".

The Public Discourse
Justin Taylor explains
The Public Discourse
One of the best decisions I’ve made is to stop watch news on the TV or political talking heads programs. It produces a weird combination (at least in me): my blood pressure goes up (either in agreement or disagreement)

Transition envisioned at the Sunset House
We are entering a season of change. In my earlier post, I shared some of the exciting ministry activities that Jireh Community has been conducting at the Sunset House. CLICK HERE By way of refresher:
All this will continue through May but the Jireh students will not be returning to the house next school year. The availability of the house(s) has been a tremendous blessing, but … after much prayer … the ministry leaders have decided to be free of the burdens, financial & otherwise. As a member of Jireh’s advisory board, I can tell you that, while saddened, I am completely in support of this decision.
- Monday Night Prayer,
- International Justice Mission meetings on Tuesday evenings,
- Homeless Men’s & Women’s Bible Study on various evenings
- Athens PB&J Ministry continues to feed the homeless on Friday & Sunday.
Of course, this leaves my ministry, Reconciliation Ministries, with the question of the future of the Sunset House. You may remember that it has 4 bedrooms/2 baths in the “Big” house and 2 bedrooms/1 bath in the guest house. Perhaps God would have us redeploy in one or several new ministries at the house … or perhaps we should sell and put His money to work elsewhere. Please be in prayer as we seek his will. Here's some history.

Confession of a food hedonist
After a while, I knew that I was eating it not because I was hungry, but because I was eager to learn it, to burn the precise, sensory details of the taste into my memory, the way you do with anything that’s good that you’ve never before tried, any experience, any phenomenon. With a book, you read and re-read sentences; with a dish, you eat and eat and eat, long after you’re full. Being overstuffed, for the food lover, is not a moral problem. It’s a practical problem.
