EMQ is a quarterly publication out of Wheaton College’s Billy Graham Center that is perhaps best described as a periodical written by and for missionaries and practitioners of Christian mission. Its articles tend towards the pragmatic and away from the theoretical, in contrast by way of example with the International Bulletin of Missionary Research. Continue Reading »

Brilliantly conceived, movingly enacted, grandiose in scope, this epic fiction intertwines the life of the miserable but gifted Mozart with the envious, correct, but ultimately mediocre Antonio Salieri. The result is a showcase of cinematic talent set to the score of some of Mozart’s finest music. Continue Reading »

These field guides are excellent resources for the novice, whether they treat of fauna like your region’s birds or flora like your trees. This is because they group each specimen visually for easy location: by color for birds and by leave structure for trees.
You can hardly find a better niche for getting a toehold on your Indiana backyard’s critters and trees. Continue Reading »

Because the approach of this splendid CD is so straightforward, its value may best be explained by a first-person account of a user.
I’ve been enjoying backyard birds in my home in Costa Rica and now in Indiana for many years. Yet I’ve only rarely felt confident about linking a bird’s song to its appearance. I guess I’m a visual guy. Birdsong sounded good but taught me almost nothing. Continue Reading »

The opening scenes of this mock-horror film, accompanied by the incessant cawing of crows, are terrifying, reminiscent of Mr Hitchcock’s mastery.
Then comes the humor. Rarely has so much ironic, self-deprecating humor been laid down so consistently in the Scary Movie genre. Continue Reading »

When people complain about the shallowness of all modern worship music, they haven’t heard Chris Tomlin. The singer has mastered Christian doxology that achieves true praise—the adoration of God rather than the introspection of self while one worships—by wedding language impregnated with biblical vocabulary to singable melody.

I review this book with mixed motives. On the one hand, sexual addiction is so devastating to men and those who love them that almost any assault mounted on its impregnable fortress is worthy of applause. After all, the public leaders with whom I work and whose downfall resounds so loudly are grateful for almost any weapon they can add to their armament. Continue Reading »

When I left a country and an institution I’d served for sixteen years, I received from fellow pencil-head Kelly Liebengood the Ideal Personal Library Embosser.

In this moment we seem inebriated by our own self-esteem, yet with little hope of achieving it via the intoxicating route we have chosen. So it may seem a harsh time to speak of God laughing sarcastically at the little efforts of humankind to establish its status and prerogative. Yet the psalms choose just that image when their writers imagine the Lord who rules over the nations surveying efforts to unseat him. Continue Reading »
