“He heard the roar, but they did him no harm.”

I gotta read Calvin on the Supper here soon

Piper quote from future grace on the difficulty of rest is money.

Good framework for discipling.

The inevitable faith-feelings chapter. Strong on the ways feelings (esp positive ones) become the object of our faith. Thoughtful practical commentary on Jeremiah 17

Good as it gets for a short treatment of assurance. Especially the description of the witness of the Holy Spirit.

“He who loves his dream of a community more than the Christian community itself becomes a destroyer of the latter, even though his personal intentions may be ever so honest and earnest and sacrificial.”—Dietrich Bonhoeffer

The pastoral sensitivity in this letter was exemplary.

I founf myself wondering if it’s natural for someone to reference books as much as Hedges does in these fictional letters. . . then it occured to me that I do😏

I hope there’s follow up discussion on the enjoyment of things here

Letter 16 on the fight put some wind in my sails! I see the enemies and am more eager to got to battle.
