Advent Book Recommendation: Malcolm Guite’s Waiting on the Word

Last updated on: November 28, 2018 at 7:25 pm   By Mark Craymor

This collection offers a poem with the corresponding commentary for every day of the Advent and Christmas seasons. The selections of poetry span classics from the English literary and spiritual tradition as well as lesser known but excellent contemporary poems and poets.... Read more

Cultivating Intellectual Humility: a Lesson from the Chartres Cathedral and C.S. Lewis

Last updated on: August 22, 2018 at 4:42 pm   By Mark Craymor

The first thing I should say is that this cathedral is a library. I want you to imagine the stone as the binding and the windows and sculptures as the pages and texts. Each is a book full of knowledge. In our brief time together, I want to help you begin to read them. With something like these words (I paraphrase), Malcolm Miller, the world’s leading expert of the miraculous marvel of medieval stone, stained glass, and genius began my... Read more

Andy Stanley and the Old Testament: A Few Concerns

Last updated on: May 12, 2018 at 2:31 am   By Mark Craymor

In a recent sermon, Andy Stanley, the Senior Pastor of North Point Community Church in Georgia, preached that Christians need to “unhitch” the Old Testament from their faith. I recommend watching the sermon so you can actually know what he says. Things start to get pretty wild around the 33-minute mark and this just ramps up around 36 minutes until the end. Watch it. Read my thoughts below and then let me know what you think! Why does Andy preach... Read more
