SK will either leave you galvanized toward running further into God and from the world, or he will leave you in despondency over the idea that you might not be a follower of Jesus.

The way SK writes about faith is so unique yet so powerfully true that I cannot help but be fascinated by the mind of this man.

As always, SK is brilliant in a way only he can be.

Man's advantage over the animals of speech is only an advantage if he learns to keep silent. Keep silent, and do not add to your suffering nor make it more than it is.

This has been a really insightful overview of the life of John Owen. Specifically, I have been blessed to find that he viewed the whole purpose and end of education to be the detangling of the soul so that one could live before God and in communion with Him.

Quite excited to read Bruce Kirmmse's newer translations of some of Kierkegaard's works. I would become aware of these as I'm in the midst of needing to read several other books for upcoming conferences this summer. SK always takes priority, though.

Pink's pen was blessed by the almighty.

Extremely thorough study that has been generating great discussion at the men's Bible study in our church.

Rarely, if ever, do I come across anyone who pulls as much from scripture as Pink was able to. The man was heavily illumined by God. Thoroughly anticipate meeting him in eternity.

No, Goodreads, I do not want to read gay books in June, or any other month.

really good covenantal overview of God's plan of redemption for man; especially important in the face of modernity's dispensational perversion of scripture

Faith is the breakwater of the soul. It provides the only haven in which a rudderless man can find peace. - Des Hermies

Thoroughly enjoy Huysmans. Dark indeed, but nothing we don't already know about the history (and modernity) of evil men on earth and the goings on behind closed doors.
