He has written one of my favourite books of all time (Glimpsing the Face of God), and been a huge encouragement in the face of the new atheism.

Also, a pretty smart guy.

For my Intro to NT Class…

Rembrandt – The Rich Fool (Luke 12:20)

Sorry it’s so late.

John Mark’s head didn’t glow like that.

See you tomorrow.

Sorry it’s so late. I just got home from the game.

Godspeed you as you finish reading.

It’s the greatest you will EVER read.

I’m blessed to be given the opportunity to even ask you to do it.

This painting is entitled “the calling of saints Peter & Andrew”.

The artist is Caravaggio from the 16th Century.

Love the beardless Jesus.

The Shadow of Death

1873 William Holman Hunt – The Shadow of Death

The Cross of Christ

Description: The work of a lifetime, from one of the world’s most influential thinkers, about the heart of the Christian faith.

“I could never myself believe in God, if it were not for the cross. . . . In the real world of pain, how could one worship a God who was immune to it?”

“Before we can begin to see the cross as something done for us (leading us to faith and worship), we have to see it as something done by us (leading us to repentance). Indeed, ‘only the man who is prepared to own his share in the guilt of the cross…may claim his share in its grace.’ Horatius Bonar (1808-89), who has been called the ‘prince of Scottish hymn-writers’, expressed it well:

‘Twas I that shed the sacred blood;
I nailed him to the tree;
I crucified the Christ of God;
I joined the mockery.

Of all that shouting multitude
I feel that I am one;
And in that din of voices rude
I recognize my own.

Around the cross the throng I see,
Mocking the Sufferer’s groan;
Yet still my voice it seems to be,
As if I mocked alone

2 Peter 3:9 (English Standard Version)

9(A) The Lord is not slow to fulfill his promise(B) as some count slowness, but(C) is patient toward you,[a](D) not wishing that any should perish, but(E) that all should reach repentance.
