Getting into the Book of Psalms

There are lots of great resources to assist you in studying Psalms, but here are three of my favourites:

1.  Memorising some Psalms. Getting them into your head allows you to chew them over.

2. You really can't beat John Collins introduction and notes in the ESV Study Bible. They are tops. Looking up some psalms I've been memorising showed the value of this great resource again, today.

3. Geoffrey Grogan's Two Horizons Commentary on Psalms is also very useful and answers questions that  some other commentaries don't.

 

Chantry versus Frame

I like what Fred Zaspel has to say in his Credo magazine blog article about Tom Chantry's harsh words about his former teacher, John Frame.

 

And then, Dan Phillips sent this link to an interchange between Chantry and Frame on Dan's Biblical Christianity blog, which clarified things more.

Is David Attenborough an Atheist?

Is David Attenborough an Atheist?

 

Sir David Attenborough does not believe that an understanding of evolution is incompatible with faith in God, he will tell Radio 4 listeners on Sunday.

Attenborough, who was invited back to Desert Island Discs to mark the 70th anniversary of the radio programme, explains that, while he is still agnostic, he does not rule out the possibility of the existence of a deity.

"I don't think an understanding and an acceptance of the 4 billion-year-long history of life is any way inconsistent with a belief in a supreme being," the 85-year-old broadcaster and writer will tell presenter Kirsty Young. "And I am not so confident as to say that I am an atheist."

 

Hard to understand?

“The Bible is very easy to understand. We pretend to be unable to understand it because we know very well that the minute we understand, we are obliged to act accordingly.” Kierkegaard

Is atheism irrational?
