Today I would like to draw your attention to a couple of items that deserve your attention. (How's that for an opening sentence?) Over to the right of this page you will see a few banner links. Among them is a link to Timmy Brister's Puritan Reading Challenge. This is a great way to introduce yourself to the Puritans. Timmy has arranged an excellent deal with Reformation Heritage Books on the twelve books he'll be covering this year, and he will be posting discussions on each as he goes (The first two are here and here). If you've been intimidated by the Puritans, perhaps thought them over your head, this should be an easy way to get over your fear.

The second link to notice is Coffee Swirls Daily Bible Reading. Doug McHone is blogging through the Bible, and his commentary is always insightful. Here is my suggestion: throw away that flaky devotional magazine you picked up at church and read Doug instead. He'll be posting five days a week, more or less, so click that link every day. You'll be glad you did.
