Like many young theologians, I was
fascinated with the life and writings of Dietrich Bonhoeffer in my college
and seminary years. But I continue to pay attention to new studies on
Bonhoeffer, like this insightful review in Books & Culture
about Bonhoeffer's closest friend and how that relationship shaped his
theology.

As an editor and writer, I try to pay attention
to words. And to the musings of other writers about words. Words like issues,
as in "I have issues with my mother" and so forth. I was surprised
at how interesting a short essay on such
an abstract word could be.

I love it when philosophers apply their
gifts to the everyday world. Here's a fine example
where gardening and the new food moralism are the subjects.

Why build Verrückt, the tallest
waterslide in the world? Because "it seems like a really awesome thing
to do." Enjoy this week's long read about "the Men Who Built the Great
American Water Park."

The new NFL and college football season
is underway, and it's only right to watch this short video in honor of this
momentous annual occasion: "24 Football Teams That Lost
before the Game Even Started."

Grace
and peace,
