Miscellany


Before I list some of the fascinating things I have run across recently, in the category of giving praise where praise is due, I must tell you that almost everything I point out to you was pointed out to me by one of the blogs listed in the side-bar. I find them all interesting and worth my time. Check out any you are unfamiliar with!

This morning I came across an interesting article from Business Insider that gave some good perspective on the housing market. I had already planned to post this editorial from Investors Business Daily as my "Non-stimulus piece of the week", so read it, too, if you can stand the depression that will ensue. For another take on the whole mess we are in, see Andrew Kern's thoughtful blog post here.

And speaking of interesting takes on culture, read Carl Trueman's thought-provoking article about Christians and cultural engagement here. This also wins the prize for the most interesting title...

On a different note, I enjoyed this article by John Stackhouse, Jr. in Chritianity Today about music in worship.

And keeping with my "arts" theme, and to end on something funny and light, read Dave Barry here on having an "art attack".
