It’s summer. It’s hot. We’ve got a drought of sorts, the kind we get in Chicagoland. Flowers are blooming. The birds that reside here and summer here are making their sounds.

Others use the Library of Congress, but
I’m not detailed enough to do the Dewey system. I shelve my books by topic: NT general, Jesus, Paul, NT issues, etc. It’s not precise enough for a library the size of Rick Warren’s, but it works for me.
The article about the SBC’s recent moves is on point. Few inside the SBC seem to realize how big of a shift this is in traditional polity. In 20-30 years, this will be a key moment noted in Baptist history books.
