Kindle Deal: Preaching in Hitler’s Shadow: Sermons of Resistance in the Third Reich by Dean Stroud. $1.99.

Seven of the best articles I came across this week:

1. Alan Jacobs – Outside In: What do we see when we look at ourselves? Human beings wish to believe in a pure and good inner self led astray by “cultural forces”; or a conflicted self that is concerned not with righteousness but only with happiness and unhappiness; or a self afflicted by and seeking to throw off the burden of a flawed and inadequate past; or no self at all. We will, it seems, do almost anything, construct almost any story, to avoid the recognition that something is deeply wrong with all of us

2. Andrew Wilson – Are Ethics Non-Essential? When we step back from the specific debates of our own generation, we can often see the principles at work a bit more clearly. Some ethical positions are so central to Christianity, even if they are not mentioned in the Creed

3. Sneak peek interview with Hannah AndersonHannah is one of our generation’s most articulate thinkers and writers. Here is some of her story and an excerpt from her new book.

4. Darryl Dash – Why Spurgeon Changed His Mind on Sermon HelpsSpurgeon changed his view has he became aware of the needs of struggling pastors. I’m grateful for the sermon helps that he’s left behind, and I benefit from them. 

5. Mindy Belz – Safe Haven No More. A slashed refugee cap virtually ends U.S. protection for persecuted Christians.

6. Matt Reynolds – Abortion is Wrong. That’s Not Why Roe v. Wade is Wrong. Taking the life of an unborn child is a sin against God and man. Roe, by contrast, is an offense against America’s democratic order, a renegade ruling utterly untethered from the text, logic, structure, or history of the Constitution it purports to enforce.

7. The Chronicles of Narnia to be developed by NetflixI am so excited about this news, but also nervous because of how easily they could botch it all.
