Two Posts Worth Reading

Today, as I perused the blogosphere, I came across two posts that would be worth your time reading.

First, Tom Ascol laments drawing to a close his 73 message series in Jeremiah. He identifies emotions to which I can certainly relate as I preach prolonged series in Bible books as well (and all Immanuel's people said ...). My question: How did he limit it to 73? Read Tom's post here:

Second, Dan Phillips has posted an excellent and humbly honest piece on dealing with difficult texts at the Pyromaniacs blog. Check it out here: http://teampyro.blogspot.com/2006/11/when-you-dont-get-verse.html
