Things Glen Found Interesting<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Here is the 2010 article I mentioned in my sermon:<\/span> Study of the therapeutic effects of proximal intercessory prayer (STEPP) on auditory and visual impairments in rural Mozambique<\/span><\/a> (Google scholar link). And the book I mentioned, <\/span>Miracles <\/span><\/i>by Craig Keener, is in Green Library at <\/span>B<\/span>S2548 .K44 2011<\/span><\/a>. <\/span><\/li>\n
  2. The Burial Place Of Jesus Exposed For The First Time In Centuries: An Interview On What It Originally Looked Like And How We Know This Is The Right Location<\/span><\/a> (Justin Taylor, Gospel Coalition<\/span>): \u201cReaders might wonder, though, how we know this is really the place Jesus was buried\u2026. What does the Bible say? How about archaeology? Do we know what first-century tombs looked like? How big were these tombs?\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Papyrus offers nonbiblical mention of Judean kingdom in Jerusalem<\/span><\/a> (Michael Chabin, Religion News Ser<\/span>vice): \u201cIsraeli archaeologists have unveiled the earliest known nonbiblical Hebrew-language reference to Jerusalem, dating back to the time of the First Temple in the seventh century B.C.\u201d N<\/span>ote that there is <\/span>some controversy<\/span><\/a> about the papyrus. <\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Neither Trump Nor Clinton Is The End Of The Republic<\/span><\/a> (Conor Friedersdorf, The Atlantic): <\/span>\u201c[America] survived chattel slavery that made a mockery of founding principles, Shay\u2019s Rebellion, the Whiskey Insurrection, the burning of its capital by the British, the Trail of Tears, The Dred Scott decision, the aforementioned civil war, the assassinations of presidents, Plessy vs. Ferguson, an imperialist foray into the Philippines, the Espionage and Sedition Acts, a flu pandemic that killed 20 million worldwide and an estimated 675,000 Americans, the Great Depression, the global rise of fascism, World War II, an expansionist Communist dictatorship with nuclear weapons that infiltrated the U.S. government, Jim Crow, Watergate, urban riots, the Sexual Revolution, and the September 11 attacks. But now it\u2019s all over [because of this election].\u201d See also Friedersdorf\u2019s article <\/span>How  Millions Of Good People Can Vote Differently Than You Will<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. The Unintended Consequences of Law<\/span><\/a> (<\/span>Joe Bosquin<\/span>,<\/span> Builder): \u201c<\/span>Large, sweeping statutes like Prop 13 have consequences that continue to manifest decades after they are passed. In this case, it\u2019s a dearth of entry-level housing.\u201d<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
