Things Glen Found Interesting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
  1. Grow\u00ading My Faith in the Face of Death<\/a> (Tim Keller, The Atlantic): \u201cMost par\u00adtic\u00adu\u00adlar\u00adly for me as a Chris\u00adt\u00adian, Jesus\u2019s cost\u00adly love, death, and res\u00adur\u00adrec\u00adtion had become not just some\u00adthing I believed and filed away, but a hope that sus\u00adtained me all day. I pray this prayer dai\u00adly. Occa\u00adsion\u00adal\u00adly it elec\u00adtri\u00adfies, but ulti\u00admate\u00adly it always calms: And as I lay down in sleep and rose this morn\u00ading only by your grace, keep me in the joy\u00adful, live\u00adly remem\u00adbrance that what\u00adev\u00ader hap\u00adpens, I will some\u00adday know my final ris\u00ading, because Jesus Christ lay down in death for me, and rose for my jus\u00adti\u00adfi\u00adca\u00adtion.\u201d<\/li>
  2. The Emp\u00adty Reli\u00adgions of Insta\u00adgram<\/a> (Leigh Stein, New York Times): \u201cI have hard\u00adly prayed to God since I was a teenag\u00ader, but the pan\u00addem\u00adic has cracked open inside me a pro\u00adfound yearn\u00ading for rev\u00ader\u00adence, humil\u00adi\u00adty and awe. I have an over\u00addraft on my out\u00adrage account. I want moral author\u00adi\u00adty from some\u00adone who isn\u2019t shilling a mem\u00adoir or call\u00ading out her ene\u00admies on social media for clout.\u201d<\/li>
  3. Do Lib\u00ader\u00adals Care if Books Dis\u00adap\u00adpear?<\/a> (Ross Douthat, New York Times): \u201cIn the last stages of the same-sex mar\u00adriage debate, I nev\u00ader encoun\u00adtered a flick\u00ader of pri\u00advate doubt from lib\u00ader\u00adal friends. But in the gen\u00adder-iden\u00adti\u00adty debate, there are per\u00adva\u00adsive lib\u00ader\u00adal doubts about the cur\u00adrent activist posi\u00adtion. Yet with\u00adout lib\u00ader\u00adal objec\u00adtion, that posi\u00adtion appears to set rules for what Ama\u00adzon will sell.\u201d<\/li>
  4. The Mise\u00add\u00adu\u00adca\u00adtion of America\u2019s Elites<\/a> (Bari Weiss, City Jour\u00adnal): \u201cSo chil\u00addren learn how the new rules of woke work. The idea of lying in order to please a teacher seems like a phe\u00adnom\u00ade\u00adnon from the Sovi\u00adet Union. But the high school\u00aders I spoke with said that they do ver\u00adsions of this, includ\u00ading par\u00adrot\u00ading views they don\u2019t believe in assign\u00adments so that their grades don\u2019t suf\u00adfer.\u2026 One Eng\u00adlish teacher in Los Ange\u00adles tac\u00adit\u00adly acknowl\u00adedges the prob\u00adlem: she has the class turn off their videos on Zoom and asks each stu\u00addent to make their name anony\u00admous so that they can have unin\u00adhib\u00adit\u00aded dis\u00adcus\u00adsions.\u201d
