Brain Freeze

You may have noticed the apparent abandonment of my usual weekday schedule in the last couple of weeks. The explanation is that I’ve gotten rather bogged down in routine and have been struggling a bit to find motivation. For the first time in years, I haven’t really felt like reading anything, and it’s been this way almost all year. The cure, I’ve decided, is to 1) read more frivolously, 2) avoid anything thick and heavy, and 3) stop worrying about it. One day — soon, I hope — I’ll pick up Gurnall and my commentaries on John again, but for now I’m going to take up several small items on my shelves still unread. I’m going to attack them with all the gusto of a sleeping cat and see what happens.

First on my list will be What Is the Gospel by Greg Gilbert. It’s one of those nice little books put out by 9Marks, so I feel fairly confident in recommending it without having read it yet. Coincidentally, it is presently being offered free of charge to Kindle users. Those (like me) who would rather not own a Kindle can download the Kindle for PC. I’ve downloaded and used it, and found it quite satisfactory.

Now I am going to see if I can scrounge up a donut and have some coffee. Good day.
