Our son Ethan doesn’t always enjoy his car seat. By trial and error, we’ve discovered a few hymns that seem to calm him down almost immediately.

I’ve just listened to a great interview of Rick Phillips from the gents over at the Reformed Forum about his latest book, The Masculine Mandate. (The book isn’t due out until next month, but it can be pre-ordered from Amazon here.) Phillips summarizes “the masculine mandate” in the words “work” and “keep”, keying off of Genesis [...]
