Pensées

"I bow down toward your holy temple and give thanks to your name for your steadfast love and your faithfulness, for you have exalted above all things your name and your word" (Ps 138:2, ESV). This phrase represents the passionate pursuit of my life: to know, love and worship God by knowing His self-revelation, the Bible.

For whatever reason, I've decided to enter the blogosphere. Like the Grinch, perhaps it's because my head isn't screwed on just right, or perhaps that it's that my shoes are too tight. Every few days, I'll put my thoughts on Scripture and the pusuit of the knowledge of God out into the universe of nether for anyone who passes by to read. If your passion is to know, love and worship God by knowing His Word, stop by occasionally.

One more thing: I'm a bit of a bibliophile, so occasionally, I'll wax eloquent about a book you should read (or shouldn't, as the case may be). I'll try to hyperlink these posts (the good books--you don't think I'm going to facilitate you buying the bad ones, do you?!?) to Amazon, CBD or Grace Books International. But start with the Bible--this is where God reveals Himself and His nature, character and attributes; this is where He reveals His Son Jesus; and this is where He reveals His wonderful plan of redemption.

  1. Jonathan,
    Thank you for doing this. I will be reading even if I don't comment often.

    You might look at GoodReads as a way to let us know what you read and how you rate it. Maybe link it from here. You can approve who you are friends with. I sent you an invite. If you want to be friends you can see what "junk" I have been reading. (smile)
