Tebowgetics
/
I’m a cynic and a pessimist by nature. Usually, if “everybody is doing it,” I don’t. I can’t tell you whether it’s my sin nature, my metacultural bent, or a regenerate distrust of fads and mania in general. And maybe in this case it’s my affinity for the Pittsburgh Steelers (who, after all, have the... Read More

A Few Good Books
/
Every three years the DBTS faculty collaborate to produce a Basic Library Booklist for pastors.

Careers and Jobs
/
This article by Frederica Mathewes-Green has more to do with the problems of feminism and is worth reading, but I thought this section was particularly thought provoking: Take the bad idea that I’m calling “careerism.” I don’t mean by this that women shouldn’t have careers. By “careerism” I mean a half-conscious ideology that holds that... Read More
