  1. If They Weren\u2019t Taking Notes, How Did the Disciples Remember Jesus\u2019s Exact Teaching? The 3\u2011Step Process for Formulating the 4 Gospels<\/a> (Justin Taylor, Gospel Coalition): \u201cI might not be able to tell you what I did last week, but I could give you a three-hour lecture about Jesus and the Jewish roots of the Last Supper with zero preparation because I have been talking about it all the time for the last ten years. That\u2019s one key difference between rehearsed memories and incidental memories.\u201d<\/li>\n
  2. What Straight\u2011A Students Get Wrong<\/a> (Adam Grant, New York Times): \u201cThe evidence is clear: Academic excellence is not a strong predictor of career excellence. Across industries, research shows that the correlation between grades and job performance is modest in the first year after college and trivial within a handful of years. For example, at Google, once employees are two or three years out of college, their grades have no bearing on their performance.\u201d The author is an organizational psychologist at Penn\u2019s Wharton School.
