100 Enlightening Bible Study Blogs
According to ChristianColleges.com (link removed due to odd request by linked site), and since they include this blog, how could I argue?

How to Keep Religion in the Public Square
Every so often there’s another outburst of complaints about how religion is being suppressed in this country, and how it no longer has its place in the public square. And there are the occasional really silly incidents that actually support such a claim. I note, for example, that our local public library here in Pensacola,…
