Pattern Building in the Mind
We like meaning and connections, and we’ll sometimes find them even when they’re not there. People who understand this can deceive you. The Improbability Principle from Neuroblogica is a very good summary of this.
Friday Reading 11/9/2007
I’ve found a way to make short comments on some of the blog posts I read, but either don’t have time to comment on, or have only a very little bit to say. The result: these link posts. I think I’m supposed to leave more time between agreements with Joe Carter but even though he…
My Highlights from Christian Carnival CXCVII
I like to highlight three or four posts from the Christian Carnival when I have the time. I usually do so in the post linking to it (if I remember to do so at all), but I forgot today, so here comes another “link” post. My first highlight is host Diane R’s Yes, We Can,…

Morning Reading – 11/6/2007

I will certainly get some blogging fodder from reading the posts. There are certainly a substantial number of excellent biblioblogs available. Speaking of which, John…
Lingamish Blog Boredom
David (Lingamish) tagged me with a meme I’m happy to get on board with. He asks that I name five up and coming blogs. The problem is there are so many. I’m going to focus on ones that have caught my attention recently. I’m late on this, but I have a good excuse–I was coordinating…
Mid-week Links 10/31/07
Just a couple of really interesting things I saw, but don’t have time to comment on fully: Joe Carter at evangelical outpost does a great take-down on Jack Chick tracts as applied to Halloween. Fun reading. In the best post I read this week, Matt Judkins of Catching Meddlers tells a wonderful story of grace…
Methodist Blogs Weekly Roundup #135
. . . has been posted. My post received mention as best of the Methodist blogosphere. I’ve been coordinating a small conference over the weekend, and I hope to write a few words about it here. I also hope to make some comment on other posts from the MBWR. It was, as Allan mentioned, a…
MBWR #134
. . . has been posted by Allan R. Bevere. I appreciate his efforts on this roundup–I regularly find thought provoking posts to read and/or respond to by that means.
